A liquid dispenser. The dispenser includes reversible modular components to define selective removability and rearrangement between them and a base structure such that one or more sheets of a passing liquid-receiving substrate may receive such liquid through interchangeable liquid-dispensing orientations. The removability features include tool-free operation to facilitate quick insertion and removal of the modular components that include at least a liquid-dispensing valve assembly and a seal that is selectively engageable with the valve assembly to protect liquid-dispensing nozzles of the valve assembly from becoming clogged with residual dried liquid during periods of inactivity of the liquid dispenser. Selective movable cooperation or attachment between the modules&#x2014;as well as between the modules and the base structure&#x2014;facilitates flexible configurations of the dispenser, including top-down and bottom-up liquid-dispensing orientations.

Reversible non-contact adhesive applicator dispenser

Tamper-resistant lid assembly

A tamper-resistant lid assembly for dispensing a premeasured amount of liquid from a beverage container and a method of providing a tamper-resistant lid assembly for use in dispensing a premeasured amount of liquid. The assembly includes a cup and a ring that are secured to one another using a snap-fit connection, as well as a lockable connection enabled by a selectively twistable rotation of the cup and the ring once the snap-fit connection is established.
