Abstract
A cup trip assembly is disclosed for use on bag-in-the-box and membrane type beverage containers of the type having an outlet nozzle with a manually operable dispensing valve carried at the end thereof. The cup trip assembly comprises a mounting collar adapted to releasably encircle and lock to the nozzle at a location adjacent the dispensing valve. A transversely extending operating member is pivotally carried by the mounting collar at a location axially outward of the nozzle. The operating member has operating fingers extending rearwardly therefrom for engagement with the dispensing valve for moving the valve to an open position when the operating member is rotated in a first direction and moving the valve to a closed position when the operating member is rotated in a second direction. A cup trip lever is joined to and depends from the operating member to a position subjacent the dispensing valve where movement of a cup to a beverage receiving position beneath the dispensing valve causes movement of the cup trip lever to rotate the operating member in the first direction.
