Abstract: A liquid dispenser for dispensing a predetermined volume of liquid to a surface includes a bottle for containing a supply of the liquid with a movable sleeve coaxially located with and receiving the outlet end of the bottle. The sleeve includes a valve which closes and opens the bottle outlet as the sleeve moves toward and away, respectively, from the bottle outlet. The sleeve also includes a metered liquid reservoir to the opposite side of the seal from the bottle outlet for receiving a predetermined measured amount of liquid from the bottle. A valve is located at the reservoir to control the flow of liquid from the reservoir, and a dauber tip is in liquid-flow communication with the reservoir for receiving liquid from the reservoir and dispensing the liquid on a surface.

Abstract: A liquid applicator includes a generally cylindrical container having an open neck end. A flexible bag adapted to hold a liquid to be applied is disposed within the container with the open mouth of the bag located within the open neck of the container. A valve assembly is situated in the open neck of the container to control the flow of liquid from the bag. A dauber tip of porous material having its exterior surface coated with flock is located over the valve assembly at the exterior of the open container neck for receiving liquid flowing through the valve assembly and applying the liquid to an object.
