Zusammenfassung:A fluid dispensing device having a flexible fluid pouch and a dispensing assembly, the dispensing assembly having a top piece and a bottom piece, the top piece having a flexible actuator including a flexible dome and a flexible flange extension, the bottom piece having a bottom portion of a pump chamber, a pump chamber inlet, a chamber inlet valve, and a bottom portion of an outlet valve, the top piece and the bottom piece mated together to form a pump chamber and an outlet valve, said device configured to allow bidirectional fluid flow through either or both inlet and outlet valves, and to dispense a volume of fluid that is less than the volume of said pump chamber. The flexible pouch may have a single opening or two openings. In the case of a single opening, the entire dispensing assembly is in the interior of the pouch. In the case of two openings, only the flexible dome extends to the exterior of the pouch. The outlet valve is configured so that the more pressure that is applied to the flexible fluid pouch, the more tightly the outlet valve seals.
