DISPENSING APPARATUS FOR LIQUIDS

The problem of sampling radioactive liquors is one of minimizing radiation and avoiding spilling (contamination). A small-capacity reservoir, which can be flushed with liquid and then filled to a predetermined level carries a hypodermic-type needle with its unpointed end open to the reservoir below that level and its pointed end exposed above it. A rubber-capped evacuated bottle of greater capacity than the volume of liquid in the reservoir can be advanced and withdrawn on to and away from the needle which thereby penetrates the cap and injects liquid into the bottle. The sampling machine has a row of sampling points and a mechanism for bringing a bottle over these points by means of a long pair of curved tongs and mirror viewing through periscope behind a shielding wall.
