<p>A portable liquid dispensing apparatus (100) suitable for household use includes a self-contained supply compartment (106) for containing a liquid such as water, cleaning fluid or the like. The apparatus (100) further includes a relatively low pressure motorised pump (108) having an input conduit (110) opening into the supply compartment (106) to receive liquid therefrom. An output conduit (112) is connected in use to a dispensing assembly (114, 116) that is arranged to receive liquid pumped from the supply compartment (106) by the pump (108). The dispensing assembly (114, 116) thereby produces an output flow of liquid that may be directed by a user of the dispensing apparatus (100). The apparatus is particularly useful for a variety of household applications, such as washing vehicles, buildings and watering household or outdoor plants, and the use of a relatively low-pressure pump may result in significantly reduced water usage in such applications.</p> |
