ABSTRACT:
A dispenser for manually filling a plurality of liquid receptacles simultaneously is disclosed. The dispenser includes an elevated base having a plurality of apertures through which liquid may flow into receptacles or cups positioned thereunder. Leg members support the base to position the apparatus over the receptacles. A filler tank is secured to the base for retaining a volume of liquid. Sandwiched between the filler tank and the base, a slide cover is manually rotatable over the base between an open position and a closed position so that a plurality of selectively placed apertures in the slide cover line up with selected apertures in the base to permit fluid flow therethrough. The filller tank of the apparatus includes a vacuum release valve for manually controlling the flow of fluid through the apertures in the base. Manual operation of the vacuum release valve permits air to enter the upper portion of the filler tank thereby permitting equalization of pressure which allows for the flow of fluid through the base apertures into the receptacles, thus allowing for selective manual control of fluid flow by the user.
