ABSTRACT:
A dispensing unit is adapted to be attached over a dispensing spout or neck of a bottle containing a liquid, such as water, therein. The dispensing unit includes a shroud having an extension adapted to be inserted into a receptacle defined on a standard dispenser stand. A cylindrical passage is defined through the shroud and is sized to receive the spout of the bottle therein. In one embodiment of the invention, a valve member functions to close communications of water from the spout, through the passage and into the receptacle of the dispenser stand when the bottle is inverted and the spout and the extension of the shroud are initially placed within the receptacle. When the bottle is lowered the shroud engages the dispenser to communicate water from the bottle into the receptacle of the dispenser for consumption purposes. In a second embodiment of this invention, the spout of the bottle has a cap secured over its open end and a piercing member is secured within the shroud to pierce the cap and communicate water from the bottle and into the receptacle when the bottle is lowered and the shroud contacts the dispenser stand.
