Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009060162A2] A flow control device (10) for dispensing liquid from a liquid-tightly sealable container (34) into a second container to a predetermined level, comprises a first conduit (12) having a first inlet end (22) and a first outlet end (24), a second conduit (14) which is independent of the first conduit (12) and which has a second inlet end (28) and a second outlet end (30), and a flow control element, preferably being a check valve (16), by which liquid is prevented or substantially prevented from exiting the first outlet end of the first conduit (12). The flow control element (16) has a known operational pressure characteristic at which, on reaching a predetermined pressure differential thereacross, liquid stops passing therethrough. The flow control element (16) is spaced from the second inlet end (28) by a distance which, in liquid, at least provides the predetermined pressure differential required to cause operation of the flow control element (16).
