A liquid dispenser first contains, then dispenses a cleaning solution, and finally might be used to scrubs or cleans a dirty surface. The dispenser has a hollow handle that serves as a reservoir for the cleaning solution and at each end of the handle a cleaning implement; specifically a scrubber and a sponge. When a user presses the selected implement against a cleaning surface, a valve is opened, allowing the cleaning solution to flow. The user might then scrub a dirty surface.

What is claimed is: 1. A liquid dispenser comprising: a handle member having a reservoir defined therein the reservoir for holding a liquid, the handle having sponge and scrubber ends, said ends each having male cylindrical sections with a resilient rubber ring around each of the male cylindrical sections; an applicator sponge having a sponge-end protuberance defining an internal cylinder for receiving the male cylindrical section of the sponge end, the sponge-end protuberance having handle-receiving and sponge-attaching ends; a cylindrical groove, at the handle-receiving end, the groove defined around the internal circumference of the sponge-end protuberance for receiving the resilient rubber ring of the male cylindrical section of the sponge-end of the handle; and a flange, at the sponge-attaching end, the flange defined around the internal circumference of the sponge-end protuberance for receiving a second resilient ring, said applicator sponge attached to the sponge end of the handle member; and an applicator scrubber having a scrubber-end protuberance defining an internal cylinder for receiving the male cylindrical section of the scrubber end, the scrubber-end protuberance having handle-receiving and scrubber-attaching ends; a cylindrical groove, at the handle-receiving end, the groove defined around the internal circumference of the scrubber-end protuberance for receiving the resilient rubber ring of the male cylindrical section of the scrubber-end of the handle; and a flange, at the scrubber-attaching end, the flange defined around the internal circumference of the scrubber-end protuberance for receiving a second resilient ring said applicator scrubber attached to the scrubber end of the handle member. 2. The liquid dispenser of claim 1, wherein the handle has a general cylindrical sidewall and fabricated of a translucent material. 3. The liquid dispenser of claim 2, wherein the handle has a plurality of non-slippery rubber rings disposed around the length of the handle, and a wide non-slippery band generally disposed around the center of the handle. 4. A holder for the liquid dispenser of claim 3, comprising: a frame having suction and clamp sides; a plurality of suction pads attached to the suction side of the frame; and a clamp for clamping the wide non-slippery band of the liquid dispenser, the clamp attached to the clamp side of the frame. 5. The holder of claim 4, wherein the frame is fabricated from plastic. 6. The holder of claim 4, further comprising a piece of plastic for connecting the clamp to the frame. 7. The liquid dispenser of claim 1, wherein the applicator scrubber is made from a non-scratch scour pad material with a sponge material layer, dividing the non-scratch scour pad material into distal and proximal scour sections, relative to the handle, thereby allowing the movement of the distal scour section, and liquid to permeate and exist through the sponge material layer. 8. The liquid dispenser of claim 7, the applicator scrubber further comprising: a housing having an upper wall abutting the scrubber-end protuberance, the upper wall defining an upper wall hole; a base wall defining a base wall bore and further defining a pair of base wall holes on either side of the base wall bore; a truncated cylindrical wall attached at one end to the upper wall, and at the other to the base wall; and a valve assembly, contained in the housing, the valve assembly to regulate the flow of liquid from the reservoir to the exterior of the scrubber. 9. The liquid dispenser of claim 8, the valve assembly comprising: a plate, at the center of the plate defining a hole and further defining a bore to one side of the hole; a valve stem received in the bore of the plate, and extending through the base wall bore of the housing; a first round plate attached to the valve stem on the interior of the base wall; a rubber plate attached to the valve stem and flush with the first round plate and abutting the interior surface of the base wall; a second round plate attached to the valve stem on the exterior of the base wall; and a spring around the valve stem, wherein the spring pushes the rubber plate against the base wall bore, thereby preventing liquid from exiting the reservoir. 10. The liquid dispenser of claim 7, wherein the applicator scrubber is generally cylindrical and has one side with an inclined surface of twenty degrees, with the scrubber narrowing at the end distal from the handle. 11. The liquid dispenser of claim 1, wherein the applicator sponge is made from a sponge material. 12. The liquid dispenser of claim 1, the applicator sponge further comprising: a housing having an upper wall abutting the sponge-end protuberance, the upper wall defining an upper wall hole; a base wall defining a base wall bore and further defining a pair of base wall holes on either side of the base wall bore; a truncated cylindrical wall attached at one end to the upper wall, and at the other to the base wall; and a valve assembly to regulate the flow of liquid from the reservoir to the exterior of the sponge. 13. The liquid dispenser of claim 12, the valve assembly comprising: a plate, at the center of the plate defining a hole and further defining a bore; a valve stem received in the bore of the plate, and extending through the base wall bore; a first round plate attached to the valve stem on the interior of the base wall; a rubber plate attached to the valve stem and flush with the first round plate and abutting the interior surface of the base wall; a second round plate attached to the valve stem on the exterior of the base wall; and a spring around the valve stem, wherein the spring pushes the rubber plate against the base wall bore, thereby preventing liquid from exiting the reservoir. 14. The liquid dispenser of claim 1, wherein the applicator sponge further comprises: a plurality of waved surfaces; and a plurality of wave filaments between the waves of the waved surfaces. 15. The liquid dispenser of claim 14, wherein the applicator sponge is generally cylindrical and has one side with an inclined surface of twenty degrees, with the sponge narrowing at the end distal from the handle. 16. A parts kit for the liquid dispenser of claim 1, comprising: a replaceable sponge; and a replaceable scrubber.
