Claim:
1. An apparatus for dispensing a liquid stream comprising: a back housing comprising a back plate and a cartridge support assembly coupled to the back plate; a latch plate coupled to the back plate; a cover including a cover opening proximate to a lower portion of the cover, the lower portion of the cover pivotally coupled to a lower portion of the back housing such that the cover automatically pivots away from the back housing into an open position, and such that the apparatus defines an enclosed space configured for enclosing a container when the cover is in the closed position, the cover further comprising a base reinforcing plate coupled to an underside of the cover such that at least a portion of the cover opening located in the underside of the cover is covered, whereby a ligation gap between the actuator and the underside of the cover is covered, and whereby the structural strength of the base plate to resist an applied force is increased; a latch coupled to the cover, whereby the latch may be removably coupled to the latch plate when the cover is in the closed position such that the cover is secured to the back housing in the closed position; and an actuator including a dispensing hole, the actuator pivotally coupled to an interior face of the cover such that a lower portion of the actuator is accessible through the cover opening, the actuator configured to dispense a liquid stream from a liquid container.
