Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0380182A1] A dispenser for liquid material, such as shoe polish comprising a container (1) and an applicator (2) by means of which small quantities of material can be removed from the container by dipping, and applied to a surface to be treated. The container comprises a space (12) containing liquid material and an adjacent space (14) for receiving the applicator (2). The material-containing space (12) is closed at the upper end and communicates with the adjacent applicator-receiving space (14) exclusively through a passage (13) at the lower end. The passage (13) can be unobstructed so that liquid transfer from the liquid-containing space (12) to the adjacent space (14) is automatically controlled by the physical, so-called Torricelli-tube principle. Additionally, check valve means (23-25) or water-seal means (28-33) can be provided in the bottom part of the container.
