2074504 9209522 PCTABS00013 An improved valve assembly (14) is provided for use in dispensing liquids, particularly such as flavored syrup and the like in a soft drink dispenser station (10). The valve assembly (14) comprises a compact unit adapted to mount directly into the neck (16) of a bottle (12) containing a flavor syrup, wherein the bottle (12) is designed for inverted installation into the dispenser station (10) with the neck (16) seated within a mating support socket (36). The valve assembly (14) includes parallel dispense and vent ports (52, 54), together with a dispense valve (62) for regulating syrup outflow and a check valve (70) for permitting air inflow. The dispense valve (62) comprises the armature of a solenoid actuator, the coil (80) of which is integrated with the support socket (36) and adapted for connection to an electrical current for displacing the dispense valve (62) to an open position and thereby permit gravity syrup flow from the bottle (12). The dispensed syrup volume is replaced by air drawn into the bottle (12) through the vent port (54) and an associated vent tube (50, 60) which projects a short distance into the bottle interior. The check valve (70), such as a duckbill type check valve, is mounted on the vent tube (50, 60) to permit low resistance air inflow into the bottle (12) while preventing syrup backflow through the vent tube (50, 60).
