ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for dispensing predetermined doses of a liquid into individual tubes, particularly for the artificial insemination of poultry, comprises a tube feeder for feeding the tubes individually to a dispensing station; a dispensing device at the dispensing station including a discharge nozzle dispensing a predetermined dose of the liquid with each actuation of the dispensing device; and a manipulator at the dispensing station and movable from a home position for receiving a tube fed thereto with one end of the tube spaced from the discharge nozzle, to an actuated position bringing the one end of the tube into dispensing position with respect to the discharge nozzle. The apparatus further includes a control system comprising a first sensor sensing the tube feeder in its actuated position, a second sensor sensing the tube feeder in its normal position, and a third sensor sensing the presence of a tube in the manipulator, for controlling the operation of the apparatus.
