ABSTRACT:
Liquid dispensing metering valve for attachment to the outlet of an inverted beverage bottle has upper and lower chambers separated by an apertured opening. The lower chamber has a dispensing opening closed by a ball plug movable in the chamber and having a portion protruding out through the opening so that it can be lifted from its seat by contact with ice cubes in a glass or the like. A buoyant ball in the upper chamber descends to partially block the opening between the chambers as the chambers empty into a glass. When the dispensing opening closes, liquid leaking past the buoyant ball fills the lower chamber and then it floats to the top of the upper chamber as it fills for re-use.
