Problems solved by technology

This is not convenient for the user and some of the users may not want to refill the water because of the in convenience and this could cause serious result when travel in remote and wild places.
Besides, the inlet portion of the water bag generally so small and the refill action becomes time consuming.
It is difficult to have clean water in some areas such as in a forest where no tap water or bottled water provided so that the user has to filter the water retrieved from creeks or lakes.
There are many filtering devices available in the market, but they are bulky and complicated so that it is impossible for a backpacker to carry this type of water filtering devices.
In addition, most of the water filtering devices do not have a proper connection member to be connected with the personal hydro pack.
All of the refilling assembly is operated with the hydro pack removed from the user and this requires a lot of time.
However, because the locking member 3 is made by way of plastic injection and the flexible plate 32 is the only part that let the locking member 3 function, so that once the flexible plate 32 is broken or cracked, the locking member 3 cannot perform as expected.
Besides, the press plate can easily be pressed unintentionally and this results disconnection between the male and female parts.
Furthermore, the user has to press the press plate each time when connecting or disconnecting the male and female parts.

Embodiment Construction

[0050]Referring to FIG. 4, the hydro pack of the present invention comprises a water bag 4 having a handle 43 on a top end thereof and an outlet frame 41 is located on a lower end of the water bag 4. A connection member 42 is connected with the outlet frame 41 and a hose 420 has one end connected to the outlet frame 41 and the other end of the hose 420 is connected with a female unit 5. A universal mouth piece assembly 6, a bottle water connector 7, a faucet connector 8, a filtering unit 9 and a suction unit 10 each have a male part 61 / 71 / 81 / 932 / 101 which is optionally connected with the female unit 5. The cooperation of the universal mouth piece assembly 6 and the water bag 4 is a normal use status and the user sucks water from the water bag 4 via the universal mouth piece assembly 6. The bottle water connector 7 allows the user to refill the water bag 4 by directly connecting a water bottle 110 to the bottle water connector 7. The faucet connector 8 allows the user to refill the w...
