Abstract

A liquid dispensing valve including a flexible length of tubing. The tubing is bent along two parallel lines transverse to the axis of the tubing. The tubing is held in an actuator which, in a first position folds the tubing along the two parallel lines to close the tubing to the passage of fluid. In a second position the tubing is partially straightened whereby fluid can pass through the tubing.
