- the embodiment according to FIGS. 10 a, b differs from the embodiment according to FIGS. 3 a - e in that the discharge channel 445 is closed by a slide 480 in the region of the transition between the second intermediate storage channel 443 and the discharge channel 445.
- the slide 480 is arranged precisely in the region in which the balls in the position according to FIG. 3d are located in the region between the second intermediate storage channel 443 and the delivery channel 445.
- the ball can not leave the dispensing passage 445 by a second dispensing opening 447 closed by the slide 480, but must follow the dispensing passage 445 and exit through the first dispensing opening 446.
- the metering dispenser according to FIGS. 10a, b is therefore configured with closed slides for dispensing a product when moving from the second to the first position according to FIGS. 3a-e.
- FIGS. 10a, b show a variant of the embodiment according to FIGS. 10a, b.
- the slide 580 is arranged in the region between the second intermediate storage channel 543 and the discharge channel 545 and closes a second discharge opening 547, which is formed in the dividing wall between the second intermediate storage channel 543 and the discharge channel 545. If the slider 580 is opened, as shown in FIG. 11a, the product is dispensed through the first dispensing opening 547 when the dispenser is moved from the second to the second position.

- FIGS. 12 a - c a variant of the dispensing device of the dispenser according to the invention is shown, in which two product balls each are dispensed from the dispenser during a dispensing operation.
- the illustrated embodiment includes a staging channel 641, which may be the staging channel of the embodiment of FIG. 2 or the first staging channel of the embodiment of FIG.
- the buffer channel 641 is connected via a passage 651, which is greater than the product dimension, to a channel 643, which can serve as the output channel according to FIG. 2 or as the second buffer channel according to FIG.
- the second channel 643 in the embodiment according to FIGS. 12a-c is so high that the first one Ball 631 can fully enter the second channel and the subsequent ball 632 can roll in the region of the opening 651.
- the mutual blocking of the balls desired in the above-described embodiments is avoided by the section of the first ball protruding into the buffer channel on the one hand and the section of the second ball projecting into the output channel in the embodiment according to FIGS. 12a-c on the other hand.
- the ball 631 can immediately roll along the second channel 643 and thus allow the ball 632 to enter the second channel 643 so that this ball 632 does not roll back into the product memory like the other balls.
- the ball 632 follows the ball 631 and is output (in the execution of the Ausgabevorrich ⁇ device further according to 2a - c) or enters the area between the second buffer channel and the output channel (in execution of the other output device according to Figure 3a - e).
- Figures 13a-d show a second embodiment for dispensing two balls.
- the aperture 751 is formed between the intermediate memory channel 741 and the second channel 743 as in the embodiments described with reference to FIGS. 1-11.
- the height of the second channel 743 is sized so that the first ball 731 does not prevent the second ball 732 from rolling further, so that this second ball 732 may enter a dead-end extension 748 of the buffer channel 741.
- the first position of the dosing dispenser therefore, results in an arrangement of the balls according to Figure 13c. If the dosing dispenser is moved from this first position to the second position, then the second ball 732 displaces the third ball 733 so that this third ball 733 is inserted into the buffer rolling back.
- the second ball 732 falls through the aperture 751 and follows the first ball 731 through the second channel, ie through the output channel or for intermediate storage in the region between the second intermediate memory channel and the output channel.
- FIGS. 14a-c show a development of the embodiment according to FIGS. 13a-e.
- the length of the dead end region 848 is limited by a variable slide 890.
- the dead end region 848 may receive one, two or more balls.
- the balls received in the dead end region 848 all follow the first ball 831 so that metered delivery from any number of balls is achievable in each dispensing operation and the number of balls to be dispensed is adjustable via the spool 890.
- FIG. 15 shows a modified embodiment of the embodiment according to FIGS. 14a-c.
- the slider 990 is provided in this embodiment with a clamping below the dead end region 948.
- the manner of operation of the embodiment according to FIG. 15 is similar to that according to FIGS. 14a-c.
- FIG. 16 17a, b, there is shown a seventh embodiment of the invention in which the reservoir is generally triangular in cross-section, with the base surface 1023 of the reservoir serving for attachment to the toilet lid.
- the storage container of the metering dispenser according to the invention can be varied in terms of its geometry.
- An essential feature of the cross section is a supply volume provided by the cross section and the possibility of collecting the products at a low point or area of the container.
- the ball guide is formed with intermediate storage channel and discharge channel and possibly second intermediate storage channel. This side ball guide has a number of advantages.
- the embodiment according to Figure 16, 17a, b also has the advantage that a visually appealing design is realized in which, when the walls of the ball guide are made of transparent material, an interesting-seeming tracking of the barrel of the balls by the user of the device possible is.
- the embodiment also has the advantage that one side of the storage container, for example the one on which the ball guide is not mounted, can be designed as a retrofittable refill container, which can be connected to the rest of the apparatus.
- the ball guide can also be formed directly in the lateral container wall and so together with the molded-on reservoir be part of the refill.
- a further advantage of this embodiment is that a space-saving arrangement of a plurality of intermediate storage channels is made possible by the lateral arrangement. This improves the problematic late output of the products, which is often problematic in the case of openers in particular, which often occurs only when the reservoir lid is almost completely open, especially when the storage container is full, if only one intermediate storage channel is provided. However, if there are more intermediate storage channels, for example three, the product output can already be achieved at small opening angles.
- the lateral arrangement of the channels also allows an overall flat Bau ⁇ way and thereby avoids, especially if several channels are present that the dosing dispenser builds too high, so too far from the toilet lid vor ⁇ jumps. On the one hand, this could have the disadvantage that the dosing dispenser is wetted by spray water when the lid is closed and, on the other hand, a user can get caught in the dosing dispenser with his clothing while the lid is open or be disturbed by it.
- FIG. 17a shows, in a cross section according to FIG. 17b, the arrangement of the web levels of the ball guide 1040 staggered vertically relative to one another. Shown is an embodiment which functions as an opener, like the embodiment according to FIGS. 2a-c, wherein the embodiment according to FIGS. 17a, b has three intermediate positions has storage areas.
