Water transfer system for a bottled water dispenser

An apparatus comprising a water bottle transport assembly adapted to transport a water bottle in a substantially non-inverted orientation, the transport assembly comprising a rigid frame comprising a user handle, the rigid frame coupled to at least one wheel, and a cradle supported by and rotatable with respect to the frame, the cradle comprising first and second support arms configured to contactingly support opposing first and second exterior sides of the bottle, wherein the first and second support arms are further configured to pass adjacent to the respective first and second exterior sides of the bottle to engage said sides without lifting or tilting said bottle, wherein motion of the cradle is restrained with a pin affixed to the first and second support arms that each communicates with a slotted bracket connected to the frame on opposing sides of the cradle, and further wherein the slotted brackets set the cradle either in an orientation that matches the frame or an angled position relative to the frame and further comprising a wand assembly configured to engage a neck of the water bottle while the water bottle is supported by the cradle of the transport assembly at said angled position relative to the frame, the wand assembly comprising:

• a housing with respective inlet and outlet ports;
• a bent, rigid first conduit coupled to the outlet port and extending from the housing into an interior of the water bottle, the first conduit comprising a first segment extending in a first direction and a second segment extending from the first segment in a second direction non-parallel to the first direction;
• and
• a second conduit coupled to the inlet port and extending from the housing into the interior of the water bottle, wherein a flow of pressurized water from the water bottle passes along the first conduit and to the outlet port in response to a flow of pressurized air from a pressurized air source through the inlet port and the second conduit;
• wherein the angled position of the water bottle relative to the frame extends along a first selected angle, and wherein the second segment of the first conduit extends at a second selected angle complementary to the first selected angle so that a distal end of the first conduit extends into a lowest elevation of a circumferentially extending, axially symmetric sump region along an interior bottom surface of the bottle.
