Abstract

A liquid dispenser of the type comprising a tank (R) fitted with liquid extractor means (P) suitable for being actuated by axial displacement of the tank relative to a delivery tube (T) having a portion that projects outwards, the dispenser being characterized in that it comprises firstly a discharge duct (1) connected in leakproof manner to the outer portion of the delivery tube (T) and passing through an endpiece (2) connected rigidly to a housing (B) containing the tank (R), and secondly at least one side knob (11, 12) engaging the tank or the delivery tube and carrying a cam (110, 120) designed to co-operate in sliding contact with at least one sloping wall (21, 22) secured to said endpiece (2) in such a manner that substantially radial thrust on said knob (11, 12) is transformed into axial displacement of the tube (T) relative to the tank (R), thereby causing the liquid to be dispensed.
