Abstract
An improved liquid soap dispenser is described which essentially comprises a L-shaped wall bracket provided with a lever and piston device to actuate a dispensing nozzle, connected to a tank with a cover mounted on the bracket. The dispensing nozzle is directly fastened to the tank by means of a ring which is preferably formed to incorporate a valve element of the nozzle. The tank may have an upstanding portion for mounting and opening a disposable soap cartridge. As an alternative the liquid soap can also be contained directly in the tank, by pouring the same in bulk into the tank.
