Abstract
A beverage dispensing apparatus for dispensing premixed carbonated beverages from a single beverage dispensing head, the premixed beverages being supplied to a dispenser head by conduits connected to individual premixed beverage sources. The dispenser head consists of a handle having an upper surface portion. The dispenser head has a plurality of channels therethrough, each connected at one end to the conduit and discharging the premixed beverage at the other end. The channel has a tapered portion, which is generally parallel to the upper surface of the dispenser head. A valve is received within the tapered portion and includes a stemmed poppet having a stem at one end and a biasing member which urges the poppet toward the taper so as to seal the valve. The valve is actuated by an obtusely angled lever, having a first portion generally parallel to the first surface of the dispenser head and a second portion, operatively coupled to and essentially perpendicular to the poppet stem. A pushbutton, located proximate to the first surface of the dispenser head, is operatively coupled to the first portion of the lever. The valve on the dispenser head may be opened when the pushbutton is depressed, which causes the second lever portion to slidably engage the poppet stem.
