Abstract
A soap-dispensing faucet assembly for sinks includes a faucet that is configured to couple to a sink and a housing that is configured to couple to a surface below the sink. A nozzle, which is configured to spray water, is fluidically coupled to the faucet. A power module, a reservoir, and a pump are coupled to and positioned in the housing. The reservoir is configured to position fluids, such as liquid soap and liquid detergent. The pump is operationally coupled to the power module and is fluidically coupled to the reservoir. A tube is coupled to a front plate of the nozzle and extends from an opening in the front plate of the nozzle through the faucet. The tube is fluidically coupled to the pump. The pump is configured to motivate the fluids from the reservoir through the tube to be dispensed from the opening in the nozzle.
