ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A liquid measuring and dispensing device comprises: a flow tube providing an inflow duct and an outflow duct; an upper valve seat provided at the lower end of the inflow duct; a lower valve seat provided at the upper end of the outflow duct; a measuring chamber axially slidable relative to the flow tube; and a valve carrier connected to the measuring chamber for move- ment therewith; an upper valve member and a lower valve member carried by the valve carrier; the measuring chamber being movable between an upper and a lower position through an intermediate position; in the lower position of the chamber, the lower valve member seating on the lower valve seat to close communication between the chamber and the upper end of the outflow duct but the upper valve member being unseated from the lower end of the inflow duct to provide communication between the inflow duct and the chamber; in the upper position of the chamber the upper valve member seats on the upper valve seat closing communciation between the inflow duct and the chamber but the lower valve member is unseated from the lower valve seat to provide communication between the chamber and the outflow duct; in the intermediate position of the chamber, both valve members seat on the respective valve seats to close communication between the chamber and both the inflow and outflow ducts; and through- out movement of the chamber between its upper and lower positions, the chamber remains in communication with the portion of the flow tube between the valve seats. The valve member serves not merely to prevent leakage but to control the inflow and outflow of liquid from the measuring chamber. Thus ports are not necessary and the disadvantages associated with ports are eliminated.
