ABSTRACT:
A water dispenser having an actuator that is displaced in order to dispense water from an overhead spout and an interlock member that prevents the actuator from being displaced an amount sufficient to dispense water unless a drinking glass is used to move the actuator. The interlock member surrounds the actuator and is slidably movable along the actuator from a first rest position, to a second disengaged position by the lip of a glass pressed against the actuator. In the first position, the interlock member will strike a stationary abutment to prevent the actuator from being displaced. In the disengaged position, the interlock member will not strike the abutment and the actuator can be displaced to dispense water.
