Mechanical touch faucet

1. A touch faucet device for coupling to a pressurized fluid supply comprising:

a faucet with touch plate and an outlet; and

a mechanical membrane valve having a first position and a second position, said mechanical membrane valve blocking fluid flow from the pressurized fluid supply in the first position and allowing fluid flow from the pressurized fluid supply through the outlet in the second position, said mechanical membrane valve being urged into the first position by a spring; and

an activator mechanism comprising a ball cage attached to said touch plate, said ball cage controlling the position of a ball between an open position and a closed position, where in the closed position the ball blocks a channel positioned downstream of said mechanical membrane valve and the flow of said fluid through said device, and where in the open position the ball moves away from the channel and said fluid flows through said channel, said actuator mechanism actuated by depression of said touch plate by a user to selectively open and close the channel positioned downstream of said mechanical membrane valve;

wherein movement of said mechanical membrane valve from the first position to the second position is controlled by actuation of said activator mechanism to open the channel thereby allowing the mechanical membrane valve to compress the spring.

2. The device of claim 1 wherein said faucet further comprises a mixing valve for control of fluid temperature and flow rate.

3. The device of claim 1 wherein the fluid flow from the pressurized fluid supply further comprises at least one of water, carbonated beverages, alcoholic drinks, medicaments, juices, organic liquids, and other compositions.

4. The device of claim 1 wherein the touch plate is positioned on a neck region of the faucet.

5. The device of claim 1 wherein the device has an outer surface that is made of chrome plated materials, stainless steel, metals, plastics, composite materials, and combinations thereof.

6. The device of claim 1 wherein said touch plate is positioned on an upper surface of the device.

7. The device of claim 1 wherein said touch plate is a rocker switch that actuates movement of said activator mechanism by pivotal depression.

8. The device of claim 1 wherein said touch plate is a touch surface segment that actuates movement of said activator mechanism by linear depression.

9. The device of claim 1 wherein said touch plate further comprises an activation knob in an activator mechanism that is actuated by pressure applied by said touch plate, said activator mechanism in in mechanical communication with said membrane valve, said activator mechanism controlling said membrane valve.

10. The device of claim 9 wherein said activator mechanism further comprises a cam shaft having a proximal end to said activation knob with a set of gear teeth and a distal end with a cam that controls the upward or downward motion of a needle valve for opening or closing a fluid orifice.

11. The device of 10 wherein said activation knob further comprises a flexing actuating arm in mechanical communication with said gear teeth that advances said cam in ninety degree increments for every depression by the user of said touch plate.

12. The device of claim 1 wherein said touch plate is flush with an outer surface of said device.
