摘要

A disposable pump of plastics material for dispensing small metered amounts of liquid from a single opening container to which it has been attached and which can be closed thereby, comprises a one piece housing and a cylindrical piston; the housing has gas inlet means for allowing gas to enter the container if any subatmospheric pressure should occur therein. A control unit for operating this pump comprises a programme for imparting a certain succession of rotative and sliding movements to the piston of said pump.
