Abstract:
1. A system for charging and/or recharging containers with fluid, the system comprising: a bottle assembly including a body portion defining a cavity therein, and a bottom lid assembly selectively connectable to a bottom end of the body portion, the bottom lid assembly including a valve assembly configured and adapted to open and close a fluid path into the cavity of the body portion; a fluid supply valve assembly for supplying fluid to the valve assembly of the bottle assembly to deliver fluid to the cavity of the body portion, wherein the fluid supply valve assembly is biased to a closed condition whereby no fluid flows therethrough, and is movable to an open condition whereby fluid is permitted to flow therethrough; and a fluid supply assembly fluidly connected to the fluid supply valve assembly for delivering fluid thereto; wherein when the bottle assembly is operatively connected to the fluid supply valve assembly, the valve assembly of the bottle assembly actuates the fluid supply valve assembly to the open condition to permit fluid flow into the cavity of the body portion of the bottle assembly.
