Abstract: A liquid test device has a liquid absorbing body 15; and a hydrophobic retaining body 20 that adheres tightly to the periphery of the liquid absorbing body 15 and cylindrically surrounds it. The liquid absorbing body 15 is formed into a shape of a long band having predetermined thickness and width, and the retaining body 20 includes a retaining base 11 that covers one face of the liquid absorbing body 15, a surface cover 19 that covers the other face of the liquid absorbing body 15, and side parts 13 that cover both sides of the liquid absorbing body 15. A liquid contact part 10e is provided at an end of the retaining body 20, an opening 23 for allowing the liquid absorbing body 15 to communicate with outside is provided on the retaining base 11 or the surface cover 19.

Abstract: A tap and liquid dispenser which includes a valve housing including one end having an inlet port formed therethrough for introducing an liquid thereinto, a circumferential wall defining a housing passage axially extending therein to communicate with the inlet port, and an attachment flange mounted to the other end thereof for attachment to the supporting member and a tubular valve member telescopically received into the housing passage for axial movement. The valve member includes one end portion having a first valve aperture formed therein, a circumferential wall having a second valve aperture formed therethrough and defining a valve passage connecting the second valve aperture to the first valve aperture.
