1-he liquid is discharged fromy ing-'chamber B by means' of a wick 0,0119 9nd which extendsfromapoutxjnear the top of 5o 4the'cupthrougfh its bottorrrI y v thedispensy of which is preferably fastenedto the iioor ofl clip bfr-the Wickfextending thence vupwardly Within thecup to thetop'of the'tu'beband l 'I thence dowuwa'rdly'within the said tube'.
"plhereservoir A is filledwiththedisinfecting liquid, either through thelopening closed by `the' cap a', orfthroughj` a filling-tube D, l
Whichextends throughy its floor'ot'fa'nd to a point nearthe top of thereservoir; The disf Vinfecting liquidpasses from the reservoir lA intothe cup B'through a Spinalltube11",'-Whichy preferablyv terminates at itsupperend about iiush vvi'th'the upper face of? thezioor aand atits 'lower endnear the bottom'of-th'e cup B; i
In operation the reservoir A\in .gthe` posi tion shown in Eig; 3,.havin'gfbeen filled nearly vfu11 "through thelling-t'ubeD, the air-inthev Icup Bis .putin place and the-reservoir'upon.

Whenthefliquid" reachesfthe j meantime escapin'gfthrough thctubeF, the
vof ythe fluid which escapes'from the reservoir height of the lower end ofthe tube D, it shuts oft thefpassa'ge of airjthrough `the tube into the `reservo ir and theV liquid stops iowing 'through the tubeFjntolthe cup.,` Whenever the' liquid is drawn* byline wickfrom `thecup a Bte a point `inelowthelovvex" end offthe tube a D, a bubbleot'air will passv through the tube into Athe main reservoir andmoreliqu'id Willervoir isll'ed through the'tube D, and, on

By the above arrangement an air-tight reservoir is readily secured capable of being filled either from the top or by simply inverting it without the liability of wasting any liquid or smearing the operator, and when ad-` justed and set up the liquid will at once assume the predetermined height within the cup, thereby insuring at all times a constant level in the dispensing-chamber, and hence a perfectly regular discharge from the wick.
Vhen the apparatus as above described is to be used for` diusing the vapor of the disinfecting iiuid into the surrounding air to an extent greater than that which the drip from the wick alone would afford, I provide a subcup G, which may be, as here shown, fixed permanently to the bottom of the cup B by means of a skeleton rim g, depending from the margin of the bottom of the cup B, the Walls of said cup G being spaced a short distance and extending upwardly around the Walls of the reservoir A to a point at or above the top thereof, forming an outer casing for the reservoir. The walls of the cup G, `with the exception of a short space from the bottom of the cup, are provided with numerous perforations g', and the top of the casing is provided with a removable cover H. A diffusing-Wick I extends around the lower end of the reservoir A for the purpose of-absorbing a portion of the liquid which may be discharged into the subcup Gr by the wick leading from the cup B, and a short tube 71 extending through the bottom of the cup G and projecting a short distance above the iioor of the cup, will serve as an overflow for the liquid which may accumulate in the subcup afterthe diffusing-wick has become saturated. While the additionof this diffusingwick and exterior casing may be desired in many instances, I wish it understood that the reservoir A, with its dispensing cup and wick, forms in itself a complete dispensing apparatus Without the use of the subcup and its diusing-Wick and casing.
What I claim is- 1. A disinfect-ing apparatus comprising a reservoir, a dispensing cup or chamber in proximity thereto, a filling-tube extending from the dispensing-chamber into the reservoir, a discharge-tube extending from the lower portion of the reservoir to the upper portion .thereof` and thence into the dispensing-chamber and means for discharging the liquid from the dispensing chamber or cup, substantially as set forth.
2. A disinfecting apparatus comprising a reservoir for the disinfeoting liquid, a dispensing chamber or cup removably secured to the reservoir, means for maintaining the liquid at a predetermined height within the dispensing-chamber and means for automatically discharging the liquid from the dispensing-chamber, substantially as set forth,
3. A disinfecting apparatus comprising a reservoir for the disinfecting fluid, a dispensing chamber or cup removably secured to the reservoir, a filling-tube concealed by the said dispensing chamber or cup, means for maiutaining the liquid at a predetermined height within the said chamber or cup and means for automatically discharging the liquid from the said chamber or cup, substantially as set forth.
4. A disinfecting apparatus comprising a reservoir for the disinfecting liquid, a dispensing chamberor cup in proximity to the reservoir, means for fillingr the reservoir from both top and bottom, a Siphon-tube extending from a point within the dispensing chamber or cup to a point within the reservoir near its top and thence to a point near its bottom and means for automatically discharging the liquid from the dispensing chamberor cup, substantially as set forth.
5. A dispensing apparatus comprising a reservoir for the disinfecting liquid, a dispensing chamber or cup in proximity to the reservoir, means for maintaining the liquid at a predetermined height within the dispensing chamber or cup, means for automatically discharging the liquid from the dispensing chamber or cup, a subchamber `for receiving the liquid from the dispensing chamber or cup, the said subchamber being provided With an overflow-tube and a wick leading from the bottom of the subchamber upwardly along the outer Wall of the reservoir, substantially as set forth.
Iu testimony that I claim the foregoing'as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of two witnesses, this 16th day of October, 1000.
