ABSTRACT:
A dispensing apparatus for dispensing a product from a container is disclosed. The dispenser includes a product chamber within the container; a valve adjacent to the product chamber; a hinge assembly secured to the opening of the container and to which is connected a nozzle assembly; and a lever attached by means of the hinge assembly. The nozzle assembly includes an actuator portion provided with a lever bearing surface which co-operates with a bearing portion on the lever such that operation of the lever causes movement of the actuator portion to open the valve and permit flow of the product out of the container. The nozzle assembly includes at least one dog tooth and the hinge assembly includes at least one slot, such that the valve can open only when the dog tooth is aligned with the slot.
