Claim 0:
1. An apparatus for dispensing a liquid into a toilet bowl, comprising:
a reservoir for holding a quantity of liquid;
a piston pump, comprising a pump inlet and a pump outlet, wherein the pump is configured to receive fluid from the reservoir through the pump inlet and expel liquid out the pump through the pump outlet;
a linear actuator operatively connected to the piston pump, wherein the linear actuator is configured to linearly actuate the piston pump when the linear actuator is depressed;
a mount configured to suspend the piston pump and the linear actuator together on a toilet bowl;
wherein the piston pump is in fluid communication with the reservoir for transferring liquid from the reservoir to the piston pump through the pump inlet;
wherein the piston pump is in fluid communication with an interior of the toilet bowl to dispense fluid expelled from the pump outlet into the toilet bowl;
wherein when the piston pump is linearly actuated by depressing the linear actuator, fluid from the reservoir is dispensed into the toilet bowl;
wherein the mount comprises a housing and a support member extending from the housing, wherein the housing is configured to support the pump, the linear actuator, and the reservoir together on a rim of a toilet bowl, and wherein the support member is configured to affix the housing to the toilet bowl to suspend the housing, the pump, the linear actuator, and the reservoir over an interior of the toilet bowl; and
further comprising a filling tube extending between the housing and the reservoir, wherein the filling tube is configured to direct liquid into the reservoir through the filling tube from outside the housing when the reservoir is connected to the housing.
