Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005123528A1] The invention relates to a device for dispensing liquids in the form of drops using a teat that can be connected to a container by means of a connection. The inventive device comprises a passage for the liquid from the connection to an outlet, and an air admission. A liquophilic, microporous membrane having a pore size which prevents the passage of impurities is arranged inside the teat, in the flow path of the liquid. A liquophobic, microporous membrane suitable for preventing the passage of the liquid, but enabling the passage of air, is arranged in the flow path of the air admission to the container. The teat (2) comprises a second passage (16) which is fully separated from the passage (6) for the liquid and is used for the air admission to the inlet channel (18) which is connected to the container and in which the connection (4) is provided.
