Liquid distributing open-topped cup - fits in mouth of vessel which delivers liquid into cup when squeezed

摘要

The cup is particularly for the treatment of cow teats to prevent mastitis, and fits into the open mouth of a flexible vessel forming a reservoir for the treatment liquid. It has a continuous peripheral sidewall sloping inwards towards a narrower base for securing to the vessel mouth, and with an opening in the bottom. A flexible pipe passes through the opening, having one end inside the reservoir and the other near the rim of the cup. The latter end is closed by a plug with devices for securing it to the cup wall, and also a passage in it leading from the inside of the pipe to the cup. When the vessel is squeezed, liquid is delivered via this passage into the cup.
