This caddy stop feature 279 can be used to provide a stop so that the caddy 170 does not continue to move downwardly with respect to the mounting bracket 260 when coupling the caddy 170 to the mounting bracket 260. According to some exemplary embodiments, the base 171 includes one or more openings 271 to allow for liquids trapped in the caddy cavity 277 of the caddy 170 to drain outwardly from the caddy 170. The caddy 170 can be designed to allow a top-pump soap dispenser 105 and/or a hand sanitizer 106 to be inserted through the caddy opening 176 and into the caddy cavity 277 where it may rest on the base 171 of the caddy 170. The caddy 170 may be dimensioned to allow for only one soap dispensing bottle or hand sanitizer bottle or for multiple bottles, as shown in the exemplary embodiment. Although not shown, a slidable divider (not shown) may be coupled to the external sidewall 173, which can be used to position and secure a top-pump soap dispenser 105 or a hand sanitizer 106.

The spigot 180 can include a conduit 181, a spout 182, or a lever 183 that controls fluid flow between the conduit 181 and the spout 182. The conduit 181 can be cylindrically shaped and be coupled to the body 120 within the spigot recess 125 and inserted through the spigot opening 427 (FIG. 4). The conduit 181 can be couplably sealed with the body 120 so that fluid within the body 120 can flow through the conduit 181 without leaking, which is known how to do by those people having ordinary skill in the art at the time of the invention and is therefore not described in detail herein. The lever 183 can be manually operated to control the flow of fluid from the conduit 181 to the spout 182 where a user can access the fluid for washing hands with the soap. The lever 183 can be operated without the use of hands, such as by the wrist, arm or elbow to name a few. When the lever 183 is physically actuated in an upward position, or flipped up, the lever 183 remains in that position and allows for full continuous flow from the conduit 181 and through the spout 182. When the lever 183 is physically actuated in a downward position, or flipped down, the lever 183 can remain in that position as long as the force applied to the lever 183 is present. In this downward position, the lever 183 can provide for regulated flow of the fluid from the conduit 181 through the spout 182. Once the force depressing the lever 183 is stopped, the lever 183 can move to its normal state and the flow of fluid from the conduit 181 through the spout 182 can stop. The spigot 180 used in the exemplary embodiment can be a BODA Faucet, Model A8, which is fabricated and sold by Boda Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd. having an address at No. 242 Ba Zi Qiao Xin Xin Village, Yu Yao Industrial Area, Zhejiang Province, China 315480, or any suitable spigot such as those that can provide for continuous flow.

The one or more handles 190 can be fabricated using a plastic material, such as a heavy duty, thick-walled plastic. In some other embodiments, the handles 190 may be fabricated using a rubberized material, a metal or metal alloy material, or some other suitable material used in fabricating handles. The handles 190 are coupled to the body 120 within the handle recesses 126 using screws or other known fasteners. The handles 190 can allow a user to lift the portable cooler hand-washing station 100 and move it from one location to another.

FIG. 4 is a perspective exploded view of the portable cooler hand-washing station 100 of FIG. 1 in accordance with the exemplary embodiment. The various components of the portable cooler hand-washing station 100 can be seen, including the body 120, the lid 110, the mounting bracket 260, the caddy 170, the spigot 180, and the handles 190. According to certain exemplary embodiments, a liner 440 can be included in the portable cooler hand-washing station 100.

The liner 440 is cylindrical in shape according to the exemplary embodiment but may be shaped in any other geometric or non-geometric shape in other embodiments. The outer surface of the liner 440 generally conforms in shape with an inner surface of the body 120 such that the liner 440 is insertable into the body 120. According to some exemplary embodiments, the liner 440 has a capacity to hold five (5) gallons of water, ten (10) gallons of water, or any capacity therebetween, whether potable or not potable water. Yet in other exemplary embodiments, the capacity may be less than five (5) gallons or greater than ten (10) gallons of water so long as the portable cooler hand-washing station 100 remains portable. For example, the capacity of the liner 440 may be too much for a person to lift, but the body 120 may accommodate wheels (not shown) at the bottom to facilitate moving the portable cooler hand-washing station 100 from one location to another location when full of water. The liner 440 can be fabricated using a plastic material, such as a heavy duty, thick-walled plastic. In some examples. the liner 440 can be fabricated using a rubberized material, a metal or metal alloy material, or some other suitable material used in fabricating cooler liners. The liner 440 can include a base 441 and a sidewall 442 extending substantially orthogonal from the base 441 to form a liner opening 443 at the distal ends of the sidewall 442, thereby defining a cavity 444 within the liner 440 that is fluidly coupled to the liner opening 443. According to certain exemplary embodiments, the liner opening 443 is circular in shape and the cavity 444 is cylindrical in shape. A liner aperture (not shown) is formed at the bottom portion of the sidewall 442 and is aligned with the spigot opening 427 once the liner 440 is inserted into the cavity of the body 120. In the embodiments where a liner 440 is present, the spigot 180 is coupled to the body 120 and the liner 440 in a manner where the spout 182 is fluidly coupled to the cavity 444 of the liner 440 through the spigot opening 427 and the liner aperture (not shown), thereby allowing the spout 182 to be fluidly coupled to the contents within the liner 440. According to some exemplary embodiments, an insulation (not shown), such as Styrofoam®, air, gel, carboard, or some other insulating material is disposed between the liner 440 and the body 120.

The portable cooler hand-washing station 100 can be moved from one location to another where there is a need to provide a hand-washing station or water. For example, the portable cooler hand-washing station 100 can be used in a remote environment, job site, school yard, playground, or any similar type place where there is no running water available. A person who desires to wash his or her hands or some other object can use the soap or sanitizer that is placed within the caddy 170, use his or her hands, wrist or other body part to flip the lever 183 to turn the water flow on from the interior of the portable cooler hand-washing station 100. The person can wash his or her hands or other object and then turn the water off by physically actuating the lever 183. This allows for use of non-potable water, if desired, to wash hands and save on drinking water for actual drinking. This portable cooler hand-washing station 100 can allow for hand-free operation to significantly reduce germs and other contamination of the spout 182 that can be spread from one user to the next.
