Patent attributes
A hydration system that includes a flexible reservoir coupled to a self-sealing port assembly, wherein an interior of the flexible reservoir is in fluid communication with the port assembly; a delivery conduit having two ends, wherein a first end of the delivery conduit is coupled to a self-sealing connector assembly and wherein a second end of the delivery conduit is coupled to an end fitting; a user actuable valve removably coupled to the self-sealing connector assembly; and wherein the port assembly is open to allow fluid to flow from the flexible reservoir when the end fitting of the delivery conduit is coupled to the port assembly and the port assembly is closed to prevent fluid from flowing from the flexible reservoir when the end fitting of the delivery conduit is decoupled from the port assembly, such that the reservoir may be disconnected from the delivery conduit without leakage.
