Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a self-contained high pressure pneumatic beverage dispensing system which includes a water pressurization and supply system. In one aspect of the invention, the water pressurization and supply system comprises a water pump having a piston cylinder and a piston that is disposed within the piston cylinder between the first and second ends of the cylinder. The water pump is adapted to be filled with high pressure gas on a first side of the cylinder through a gas inlet and further is adapted to be filled with water on a second side of the cylinder through a water inlet.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a self-contained high pressure pneumatic beverage dispensing system. In each embodiment of the dispensing system, the dispensing system comprises a carbonator tank dispensing system which includes a water valve that is adapted to connect in fluid communication to a carbonator tank and to a source of pressurized water. The water valve has an open position in which water from the source of pressurized water can flow through the water valve and into the carbonator tank and further has a closed position in which water from the source of pressurized water cannot flow through the water valve into the carbonator tank. The dispensing system further includes at least one proximity switch that is adapted to operably connect in fluid communication to the water valve and a source of pressurized gas.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns a self-contained, pneumatic beverage dispensing system. In one embodiment, the pneumatic beverage dispensing system comprises a carbonator tank for facilitating absorption of CO2 gas in water to produce carbonated water, a source of CO2 gas under high pressure, the source of CO2 gas being in fluid communication with the carbonator tank so as to fill the carbonator tank with CO2 gas, and a source of water under high pressure, the source of water being in fluid communication with the carbonator tank so as to fill the carbonator tank with water. The system normally further comprises at least two liquid containers for containing liquids to be dispensed by the dispensing system, one of the liquid containers being in fluid communication with the source of CO2 gas, and a pneumatic pump system in fluid communication with the source of CO2 gas and the other of the liquid containers.

Abstract: A self-contained high pressure pneumatic beverage dispensing system configured for portable or fixed installations. The beverage system is designed to dispense carbonated and noncarbonated mixed beverages, as well as any carbonated and noncarbonated unmixed beverages in liquid form. In particular, the self-contained pneumatic beverage dispensing system includes a high pressure carbonator tank, a refillable source of CO.sub.2 gas at high pressure, a source of pressurized water, a carbonator tank water level switch and water valve, and a beverage dispenser valve. In a first embodiment, the source of pressurized water comprises a high pressure water tank containing water that is pressurized with CO.sub.2 gas. In a second embodiment, the source of pressurized water comprises a low pressure water tank, and a high pressure water pump that is used to raise the pressure of the water supplied by the low pressure water tank.
