Abstract

A dispenser for liquids including a cartridge containing a liquid, a nozzle, and a hollow flexible bladder between the cartridge and the nozzle. An assembly can be manually rotated to provide a high mechanical advantage and incrementally drive a piston through the cartridge to thereby fill the bladder with liquid from the cartridge and discharge any plug of solidified material (e.g., diluted phosphoric acid) that may be present in the nozzle; and manually operated button can be pressed to quickly and controllably collapse the bladder to thereafter dispel liquid within the bladder through the nozzle.
