[081] The jacket 561 of the torsional spring 56 may be configured to enclose the compression spring 55.
[082] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the flange 57 may be configured to be connected to the second locking member 51 by inserting a plurality of bolts 571a, 571b, 571c, 57 Id in corresponding pass-through holes 570a, 570b, 570c, 570d of the flange 57 and fasten each of the plurality of bolts 571a, 571b, 571c, 57 Id against the built-in nuts in the corresponding pass-through holes 514a, 514b, 514c, 514d, respectively.

The lever 560 may be configured to remain outside the flange 57.
[083] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the set of external threads 590 of the fourth internal collar 59 may be configured to engage with the set of the internal threads 515 of the first locking member 51, and the O-ring 58 may be configured to be trapped between the fourth external collar 59 and the first locking member 51, such a configuration may help in preventing any potential leakage of fluid trapped in the space gap 3 between the housing 1 and the bellow 2.
[084] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the bellow 2 may be configured to be filled with water, wherein such water may be fed to the bellow 2 through the water valve 7, wherein the float 8 may be configured to allow air trapped within the bellow to pass to the outside of the bellow 2 while preventing water enclosed in the bellow 2 from passing to the outside of the of the bellow 2 through the fourth pass-through opening 441c.
[085] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the bellow 2 may be made of an elastomer, such as rubber or silicone, and may be configured to be twisted, i.e. turned, along the central axis line 22 by means of the torsional spring 56. [086] The torsional spring 56 may be configured to store potential energy and convert it to kinetic energy, the converted kinetic energy may turn the bellow 2 along the central axis line 22.
[087] In embodiments of the present disclosure, potential energy may be stored in the torsional spring 56 by pulling the lever 560 towards the lower edge 11 of the housing 1 and rotating it in an anti- clockwise direction, and leaving the lever 560 to return to its default position. Pulling the lever 560 towards the lower edge 11 will apply a compression force on the compression spring 55 and disengage the second set of teeth 541b from the first set of teeth 541a, thus allowing the torsional spring 56 together with the second rotating member 54b to rotate along the central axis line 22. Once the rotation of the torsional spring 56 in the anti-clockwise direction is finished and the lever 560 is allowed to return to its default position, the second set of teeth 541b re-engages again with the first set of teeth 541a.
[088] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the stiffness and number of turns of the torsional spring 56 may be determined based on the pressure of water enclosed in the bellow 2, such that when the bellow is full of water, the pressure of enclosed water may be sufficient to prevent the conversion of the potential energy stored in the torsional sprig 56 to be converted to kinetic energy, and when the pressure of water enclosed in the bellow 2 decreases below a pre-determined value, the torsional spring 56 starts converting the stored potential energy to kinetic energy. This kinetic energy twists the bellow 2 and forces it to release the enclosed water through the water outlet.
[089] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the float 8 may include a hollow housing 80 with an end having a set of threads 800 on an outside surface of the hollow housing 80, a nut 81 configured to secure the hollow housing 80 to the removable cap 44, a first gasket 82a, a second gasket 82b, an air valve 83, a floating body 84 configured to be elevated toward the removable cap 44 by buoyancy effect of water enclosed in the bellow 2, a stopper 85, a stopper fixing mechanism 86, and a discrete ring 87.
[090] The hollow housing 80 may further include a pass-through opening 801 that is in fluid communication with the air valve 83, wherein the air valve 83 may be configured to allow air trapped within the bellow 2 to pass through to the outside of the bellow 2, i.e. to the ambient air. [091] The end having the set of threads 800 may be configured to pass through the fourth pass-through hole 441c of the removable cap, and the nut 81 may be configured to circumfuse a portion of the threads 800 in order to be fastened around the threads 800, thus fixing the hollow housing 80 to the removable cap 44 of the first locking mechanism 4. The first gasket may be trapped between the hollow housing 80 and a lower surface of the removable cap 44, while the second gasket 82b may be configured to be trapped between the nut 81 and an upper surface of the removable cap 44. The first and second gaskets 82a, 82b may be configured to prevent any fluid, i.e. air or water leakage through the fourth pass-through hole 441c.
[092] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the floating body 84 may have an upper end 840 and a lower end 841, and may be hollow and made of a light weight material, such as plastic.
[093] The stopper 85 may include a flat surface 850, with a neck 851 extending vertically downwardly from the flat surface 850, and a tiny bump-shaped protrusion 852 extending vertically upwardly from the flat surface 850, and an O-ring 853 circumfusing the flat surface 850.
[094] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the stopper fixing mechanism 86 may include a substantially flat surface 860 with a pass-through hole 861 and a groove 862 along the circumference of the substantially flat body 860, and a neck 863 extending vertically downwardly from the substantially flat surface 860. The groove 862 may be configured to receive the O-ring 853, and the pass-through hole 861 together with the neck 863 may be configured to receive the neck 851 of the stopper 85. The neck 863 may be configured to be connected to the upper end 840 of the floating body 84.
[095] The stopper fixing mechanism 86 may be in tangential contact with an upper edge of the discrete ring 87.
[096] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the tiny bump-shaped protrusion 852 may be configured to open and close the pass-through hole 801 of the hollow housing.
[097] When the water level inside the bellow 2 is below the lower end 841 of the floating body 84, the weight of the floating body 84 together with the weight of the stopper 85, the stopper fixing mechanism 86, and the discrete ring 87 will force the stopper to slightly move towards the lower edge 11 of the housing 1, thus the pass-through hole 801 of the hollow housing 80 will open and air can flow the through pass-through hole 801 and the discrete ring 87 to either the inside or outside of the bellow 2. Alternatively, when the water level inside the bellow 2 is reaches the lower end 841 of the floating body 84, the floating body by the effect of buoyancy will slightly move upwards towards the cap 44, this forces the tiny bump-shaped protrusion 852 to close the pass-through hole 801, thus preventing water or air from passing either the inside or outside of the bellow 2.
[098] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the ozone injector 9 may be configured to supply the bellow 2 with ozone in order to purify water and/or air enclosed therein. The ozone injector 9 may include a housing upper portion 924 and a housing lower portion 923, an inlet 90 connected to an ozone generator (not shown) and to a one-directional piston valve 91 that may be configured to allow ozone to enter the ozone injector 9 without allowing it from going back to the ozone generator. The one-directional piston valve 91 may be connected to an ozone valve 92, wherein the ozone valve 92 may include a body with a plurality of radial holes 920a, 920b, and discrete radial protrusions 921 extending radially outwardly from a lower edge of the body. The ozone valve body may be circumfused with a rubber jacket 922 that may partially close the radial holes 920a, 920b. The ozone injector 9 may also include a flexible pipe 93 running from the upper end 20 towards the lower end 21 of the bellow 2. A proximal end of the flexible pipe 93 may be connected to the ozone valve 92, and a distal end of the flexible pipe 93 may be connected to a porous stone 94, i.e. bubble stone, that is configured to produce bubbles of ozone in the water enclosed within the bellow 2. The ozone bubbles may be diffused throughout the bellow and purify water/air enclosed therein.
[099] The one directional piston valve 91 may be configured to provide the ozone valve 92 with pulsating flow of ozone to be injected to the bellow 2, this would prevent any tear in the rubber jacket 922. Additionally, the discrete protrusions 921 may be configured to secure the rubber jacket 922 in place while allowing ozone to pass through the radial holes 920a, 920b and reach the flexible pipe 94 to finally leave the ozone injector 9 through the porous stone 94.
[0100] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the design of the ozone valve 92 may prevent any fluid enclosed within the bellow 2 from reaching the one-directional piston valve 9. [0101] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the housing 1 may be made of an elastic material enforced with linen fibers.
[0102] While the present disclosure has been made in detail and with reference to specific embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various additions, omissions, or amendments can be made without departing from the scope and spirit thereof.
