<p>Docket No. 7451 A drink dispenser spigot comprises a barrel, a valve plunger, a stem for the plunger, and a spout opening in the barrel. A splash deflector collar about the stem is movable therewith. As the spigot is opened by withdrawing the plunger so that it passes over the spout opening to dispense drink, the splash deflector at least partially blocks splashing of the drink through the spout opening and into the barrel. Some drink splash may enter the barrel but the splash deflector has a wiper flange which will wipe interior surfaces of the barrel as the plunger moves toward closed position and wipe drink splash from the inside of the barrel and out through the spout opening.</p> |
