ABSTRACT:
A container with a discharge valve attached defines an interior volume containing a liquid. A rigid dip tube is connected between the valve and a flexible dip tube. This flexible dip tube, in turn, is attached to a weighted pick-up head. The pick-up head is formed of a buoyant portion and a weighted portion, such that the head is self-righting but does not float. A conduit, which may be continuation of the flexible tube, extends through the pick-up head to an inlet on the lower face of the head. The configuration of the head provides spacing between the inlet and the container walls such that the inlet always is in communication with the liquid.
