Patent ID: 7097072

Claim:
A fluid dispenser for dispensing drinking fluid comprising: a bottle having an open end and a close end; a fluid valve disposed adjacent said open end and spaced from said close end, said fluid valve includes a float member connected thereto via an actuating arm; and a pressure-vent member removably disposed adjacent said open end and spaced from said close end, said presure-vent member having a cavity formed therethrough, said cavity being configured to receive filtering material, wherein during operation, said bottle maintains a predetermined fluid level therein, said bottle being made of a material whereby fluid in said bottle is visible through said bottle, said valve, float member and pressure-vent member being disposed above said fluid level, such that when fluid in said bottle reaches said fluid level, said float member buoyantly rises with said fluid thereby moving said actuating arm in one direction allowing said actuating arm to shut off said valve, and such that when fluid in said bottle falls below said fluid level, said float member buoyantly falls with said fluid thereby moving said actuating arm in another direction allowing said actuating arm to open said valve.
