Patent number: 6228259Abstract: An oxygenated water cooler and method of operating the same for dispensing oxygen enriched water from a bottle installed on the cooler wherein an oxygen source integrated into the cooler delivers oxygen through the water to a headspace above the water in the bottle to maintain the dissolved oxygen content of water in the bottle at an elevated level during the entire time water is dispensed from the bottle by the cooler, the elevated dissolved oxygen level having been established previously during the water bottling process. The oxygen source preferably comprises an oxygen generator, and such generator preferably comprises pressure swing absorption oxygen generating apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 1999Date of Patent: May 8, 2001Assignee: Oxygen8, Inc.Inventors: Henry Schwartz, Dennis E. Crowley, Jason Ritton, George P. Mravlja, Jr., R. Glenn Wright, Doug Mowers
