ABSTRACT:
A spout device is connected to a liquid storage container for metering and dispensing a quantity of liquid during each successive inverting of the device and container. The spout device includes a first chamber which is in fluid communication with the stored liquid by way of a volume controlling valve mechanism to receive via gravity a given volume of the liquid determined by the valve mechanism when the container is inverted into a pouring position from an upright initial position. When the container is returned to the upright position the given volume of liquid in the first chamber flows through a connecting dump and vent conduit into a second chamber situated below the first chamber. When the container is once again tipped into the inverted pouring position the liquid in the second chamber pours through a pour spout into a suitable receiver. The dump conduit serves as a liquid volume control by overflowing fluid in excess of the premeasured quantity in the second chamber back into the first chamber during the pouring.
