<p>The invention relates to beverage dispensing apparatus adapted to support a readily replacable drinking water container. The prior art dispensers, which were typically constructed of sheet metal, were limited in cost effective exterior configurations, expensive, and required maintenance. The invention solves these problems by providing a dispensing apparatus constructed of synthetic resin, load-bearing vertical panels that are readily assembled. Load-bearing, synthetic resin vertical panels (33-35) and horizontal top (32) are integrally formed with cooperative, interlocking fasteners (34A-35G) which hold the panels and top in edgewise abutment with one another. The front (33) and opposing side (34) vertical panels are adapted for use on both room temperature and chilled water dispensers. The room temperature dispenser is additionally provided with a rear vertical panel (35), and the chilled water dispenser employs a pair of laterally spaced apart rear corner panels. The panels are molded to support a water reservoir (36) therein.</p> |
