An actuator probe assembly (10) is provided for a bottled water station. The probe assembly (10) comprises an inner support funnel (34) and an outer adapter sleeve (42) retained by a probe fitting (40) in assembled relation with a cover plate (26) for mounting onto a station housing (22) in a position over an upwardly open water reservoir (20). The support funnel (34) extends downwardly through a central opening (28) in the cover plate (26) and defines a cup-shaped receiver structure for receiving an inverted water bottle (12), with the probe fitting at a lower end of the support funnel (34). The adapter sleeve (42) is carried about the support funnel (34) and includes an outwardly radiating diaphragm member (66) for closing the top of the reservoir (20) when the cover plate (26) is installed onto the station housing (22). A pair of annular seals (58, 68) located respectively on the support funnel (34) and on the diaphragm member (66) sealingly engage upper and lower surfaces of the cover plate (26).

Un poste de distribution d'eau en bouteille comporte un ensemble (10) sonde d'actuateur composé d'un entonnoir (34) de support et d'un manchon (42) d'adaptation externe assemblé par un raccord (40) de sonde avec une plaque (26) de couverture et destiné à être monté sur un logement (22) de poste au-dessus d'un réservoir (20) d'eau ouvert vers le haut. L'entonnoir (34) de support traverse vers le bas une ouverture centrale (28) ménagée dans la plaque (26) de couverture et définit une structure réceptrice évasée qui reçoit une bouteille d'eau inversée (12), le raccord de sonde se trouvant à l'extrémité inférieure de cet entonnoir (34) de support. Le manchon (42) d'adaptation prend appui autour de l'entonnoir (34) de support et comporte un diaphragme (66) s'étendant vers l'extérieur pour fermer le sommet du réservoir (20) quand la plaque (26) de couverture est montée sur le logement (22) du poste. Une paire de joints annulaires (58, 68), placés respectivement sur l'entonnoir (34) de support et sur le diaphragme (66), assurent l'étanchéité des surfaces supérieure et inférieure de la plaque (26) de couverture.
