Title: Method and apparatus for disinfecting a refrigerated water cooler reservoir
Inventor: SHELTON JAMES J
IPC: C02F1/50
Filed: 2002-06-17
Granted: 2011-04-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing sanitizing water in a cabinet and spigot type bottled water dispenser features an ozone generating system to generate ozone for sanitizing the water. Ozone is generated and collected within an ozone generator housing. A blower transmits air to the ozone generator housing. The air carries the ozone that is generated through a flow line to an air diffuser that is positioned upstream of the spigot (or spigots) used to dispense water. In one embodiment, a valve that is activated on the spigot to dispense water also activates the blower and ozone generator.  In other embodiments, a flow sensor activates the ozone generator and blower.  Various spigot and flow sensor arrangements are disclosed as a part of the overall apparatus and method.
