Abstract
In a liquid delivery device for a toilet, a container () for the liquid has an outlet () which extends into a cup (). The cup () is open to the atmosphere and liquid flows into the cup () until the mouth () of the outlet is covered by liquid in the cup. The cup wall has a weir () and liquid in the cup () overflows the weir (). A collar () around the outside of the cup () forms a capillary with the cup wall to control the flow of liquid and feed it to capillary channels on a delivery plate () below the level of the weir.
