The tube's first end has sealing means (26) for sealing the water bottle's open end when the tube is fully inserted into the bottle, the tube's second end is attached to the pumping device. The pulley provides means for inserting the first end of the tube into the open end of the bottle and a means for retracting the tube from the bottle.
