Abstract

A ligature-resistant liquid/gel dispenser includes a rear housing with a mounting plane surface for securing the dispenser to a wall. The dispenser has a front cover is rotatably coupled and lockable to the rear housing and has an aperture for receiving a pushbutton actuator, and a dispenser pump assembly including a reservoir for storing the liquid or gel. The dispenser also includes carriage for activating a vertical pump extension of the dispenser pump assembly, so that vertical movement of the carriage activates the pump. The carriage is mechanically coupled to the pushbutton actuator when the cover is in a closed position, and horizontal movement of the pushbutton actuator is translated into the vertical movement of the carriage. The cover may be secured to the rear housing with a locking mechanism and may have an exterior that is curved or inclined downward from an apex to prevent attachment of a ligature.
