A device for dispensing a liquid from a collapsible container comprises a pair of elastic plates hingedly mounted to each other along one edge permitting them to be pivoted to an open position or to a closed position, and a sleeve of flexible material secured to the pair of elastic plates along their hinged edges for receiving a liquid-filled collapsible container. Each of the elastic plates is pre-formed with a curve which is convex from the side facing the flexible sleeve. The arrangement is such that when the liquid-filled collapsible container is received within the flexible sleeve and the two curved elastic plates are pivoted to their closed positions, they apply, due to their elasticity, a continuous force to the collapsible container for dispensing the liquid therefrom. The device further includes retainer devices for releasably retaining the elastic plates in their closed position.
