ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for dispensing fluid into a cistern such as a cistern on a water-closet, toilet or urinal. The apparatus comprises a receptacle (1) to be mounted in position within the cistern (not shown). A pivoted scoop (5) is mounted to move pivotally about trunnions (6). The pivoted scoop (5) is provided with a ladle (7) for collecting fluid (31) from the cistern and a trough (8) for dispensing the fluid (31) collected by the ladle (7) into the cistern. The scoop (5) is also provided with holes (13) for draining fluid (31) from the trough (8) as fluid (31) is collected by the ladle (7). A float (14) is connected to one end of the scoop (5) to cause the scoop (5) to pivot and dispense fluid (31) whenever the cistern is emptied. The float (14) is provided with a first cavity (21) for forming an air pocket in the float (14) and a second cavity (20) which allows water (28) provided in the cistern to enter and weigh down the float (14).
