Abstract
A hybrid dispenser incorporating structural elements providing the ability to alternatively dispense soap or other liquid from a container either by an electric motor or manually. The hybrid dispenser includes an electric motor and a valve actuator mechanism having an elongate pivotable actuator member for operating a dispensing valve structure. A manually operable member is pivotably mounted relative to the cabinet such that the electric motor and the manually operable member selectively independently cooperate with generally opposite ends of the elongate pivotable member to cause the dispensing valve structure to dispense liquid from a container supported by the dispenser.
