Abstract
A liquid-dispensing device includes a liquid-containing unit, a flexible tube, a nozzle, and a cam mechanism. The flexible tube is connected to the liquid-containing unit. The nozzle is connected to the flexible tube. The cam mechanism includes first and second cams, and first and second cam followers. The first and second cams are co-rotatable. Each of the first and second cam followers is driven by a respective one of the first and second cams to move to a squeezing position, where each of the first and second cam followers exerts a squeezing force on the flexible tube.

A liquid-dispensing device, comprising:
- a liquid-containing unit;
- a flexible tube connected to said liquid-containing unit;
- a nozzle connected to said flexible tube;
- and
- a cam mechanism including
- first and second cams that are co-rotatable,
- first and second cam followers, each of which is driven by a respective one of said first and second cams to move to a squeezing position, where each of said first and second cam followers exerts a squeezing force on said flexible tube, and
- a rotatable base that defines an axis of rotation, said first and second cams being formed on and extending axially from said base so as to be co-rotatable therewith about the axis of rotation,
- said first cam having first and second segments, and an intermediate segment that interconnects said first and second segments thereof and that extends inclinedly to the axis of rotation.
