  • Hydration system accessory device
    Patent number: 9924781
    Abstract: The systems and processes described herein correspond to a device that is to be detachably coupled to a hydration system, such as a backpack-based hydration system. The device may receive fluid from a reservoir included within the hydration system via a reservoir hose coupled to the reservoir. The device may include a pump and one or more valves that control the extent to which the fluid flows in and out of the interior of the pump. The fluid may exit a mouthpiece of the device based at least partly in response to a user applying pressure to the exterior surface of the pump, such as by the user squeezing or otherwise compressing the pump. The user may consume or otherwise use the fluid without having to apply suction to the mouthpiece of the device.
