ABSTRACT:
A water cooler and dispenser employs a ceramic crock containing a thermoelectric unit and an upwardly directed chilling probe extending into a chilling tank. The chilling probe is in heat-conducting relation to a heat sink, underneath which is a circulating fan. A circulating base is made up of a series of support fins arranged in a radial fashion in the bottom of the crock having a specialized arrangement of inlet and outlet ports. The air is circulated upwardly across the heat sink then circulated downwardly and expelled from the crock. In a conventional manner, water is drawn from the lower end of the chilling tank through a spigot extending to the exterior of the crock.
