Abstract
A liquid measuring device for use in dispensing a measured quantity of a liquid each time the pressure of liquid conveyed to such a device is reduced can be constructed utilizing associated inlet and outlet valves and an accumulator. The valves are constructed so that the inlet valve will be opened to the accumulator while the outlet valve is closed in response to an increase in the pressure of the liquid conveyed to the device. When the pressure of such supplied liquid is reduced as, for example, by the supply of liquid being cut off, the inlet valve is closed and the outlet valve is opened so as to discharge the liquid in the accumulator. Such devices are primarily intended for agricultural watering.
