Abstract: A bottom-fill hydration bottle includes a main body having a valve assembly positioned along the bottom end. The valve assembly including an inlet opening, a valve, an outlet opening and a deflector. The deflector includes an input opening and at least one aperture that functions to discharge the received fluid in a direction that is different than the outlet opening of the valve. The hydration bottle includes a cap that is selectively coupled to the top of the main body. The cap includes a central spout having a bottom opening and an upper opening. A diffuser is positioned along the bottom opening of the spout. The diffuser including an output opening and at least one aperture that functions to receive fluid from the main body at an angle that is different from the bottom end of the spout.

Abstract: A bottom feed portable bottle filling station includes a cart having a frame that defines a top surface and an inside space into which a liquid storage tank is positioned. A pump unit is in fluid communication with the tank to supply liquid stored within the tank to a liquid distribution chamber. A plurality of bottom-feed dispensers is in fluid communication with the liquid distribution chamber and each of the dispensers includes a valve and nozzle that are controlled by a switch. The nozzle and switch are positioned along the bottom wall of the dispenser and engage a removable water bottle having a bottom-feed valve along the bottom end.

Abstract: A portable hydration and bottle filling station includes a cart having a frame, a plurality of wheels and a shelf on which a liquid storage tank is positioned. A pump unit is connected to the tank and supplies fluid to a plurality of manifolds located along the top end of the cart. At least one of the manifolds includes a plurality of spigots, each having a valve and an elongated spout. A plurality of water bottles are provided, each having a one way valve for engaging the elongated spout. Another of the manifolds includes a plurality of drinking lines having a valve and nozzle along a distal end.
