Device for the measured dispensing of liquids out of a storage container and synchronous mixing with a diluent

Apparatus for mixing two liquids in a dispensing system in predetermined proportions at a mixing station, comprising:

• a volume dosing piston pump for delivering a relatively smaller portion of a first liquid to said mixing station in a plurality of individual volumetrically controlled pulsed doses of substantially equal volume during a delivery cycle;
• a flow regulated time controlled electromagnetic delivery valve having an inherent turn-on and turn-off characteristic and which is flow regulated with respect to volume for synchronously delivering a respective same plurality of relatively larger pulsed doses of substantially equal volume of a second liquid to said mixing station during the same said delivery cycle;
• a selectively adjustable flow-through regulator connected to an input side of the delivery valve for controlling the flow rate of said second liquid through said time controlled delivery valve whereby the turn-on and turn-off time of said delivery valve is compensated for during each delivery cycle by selectively varying the flow rate of each said larger dose of second liquid so that a precisely controlled total volume of said second liquid is delivered during each said delivery cycle;
• and
• an electromechanical drive mechanism for synchronously controlling the actuation of both the time controlled electromagnetic delivery valve and the volume dosing piston pump to provide a precise and variable control of a predetermined control of a mixed liquid at said mixing station.
