Abstract

See full text

A valve actuator assembly efficiently dispenses liquid soap to create bubbles. A faucet has a spout body including a valve port and seat. A valve gate door on an inlet side of the valve port is movable vertically relatively to the valve port between open and closed positions. The valve actuator assembly includes a hollow valve stem extending vertically from an exterior of the spout body into an interior thereof at the outlet side of the valve port. The hollow valve stem contains at least one orifice communicating with a hollow interior of the valve stem. The at least one orifice is exposed to a path of liquid flow from the valve port in the lower open position. A knob of the valve actuator assembly has an upwardly open funnel opening that communicates with the hollow interior of the valve stem to receive a liquid soap.
