Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hand-held dispenser for croquettes, food articles, drugs and granular products in general.
  • a number of product containers, the so called dispensers, for delivering granular products, such as croquettes for animals, sweetmeats and pharmaceutical products are known and used on the market.
  • a typical prior dispenser comprises a plastics material casing or box including an opening closed by a snap engaged cover.
  • the snap engaged cover may be opened by the thumb of the same hand holding the dispenser, but also in this case it is necessary to collect the products in the other hand or at a use place.
  • a further drawback of prior dispensers is that the opening system designed therefor must be fitted to the product to be delivered, which may have a very different size or grain dimension.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide such a hand-held dispenser allowing to easily carry the product to be delivered.
  • a main object of the invention is to provide such a hand-held dispenser allowing to easily and quickly take the product contained therein by using a single hand for both opening a product inlet/outlet door and collecting a target product dose.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide such a hand-held dispenser which may be easily made in any desired dimensions, and which, moreover, allows to precisely and easily deliver very different particle size products.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a hand-held dispenser which is very simple construction-wise and which, moreover, is very competitive from a mere economic standpoint.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such a hand-held dispenser which is very reliable and safe in operation.
  • a hand-held dispenser for croquettes, food articles, food and granular products in general, characterized in that said dispenser comprises a front shell associated with a rear base.
  • the front shell comprises a bottom opening and a top window.
  • a cap is pivoted within the front shell so as to turn therein about a central rotary axis, against a counterbiassing resilient means.
  • the space defined between the movable cap and base provides a volume for holding said granular product therein.
  • Said granular product is delivered through the bottom opening by turning said cap through a handle means which may be operated through a top window.
  • the hand-held dispenser for croquettes, food articles, drugs and granular products in general which has been generally indicated by the reference number 1, comprises a front shell 2 associated with a rear base 3.
  • the front shell 2 includes a bottom opening 4 and a top window 5, having a circular sector shape.
  • a cap 6 is pivoted inside said front shell 2 so as to turn therein about a central rotary axis 7, against an urging spring 8, which has an end portion thereof fixed to the cap 6 and the other end portion thereof fixed either to the shell 2 or to the base 3.
  • the cap 6 comprises, at the top thereof, an integral handle or knob 9, arranged at the top window 5 of the shell 2.
  • said cap 6 comprises a cap opening which may be arranged so as to correspond to the bottom opening 4 of the shell 2 as the cap is rotatively driven with respect to the shell.
  • said opening 4 is adapted to operate both for loading the product to be delivered and for just delivering it.
  • the space defined between the movable cap 6 and base 3 defines a granular product holding volume.
  • the base 3 comprises a support resilient blade element 10, downward opened, allowing, for example, to clamp the dispenser to a user belt or other element.
  • the inventive hand-held dispenser allows to easily transport different granular materials such as croquettes, food articles, drugs and any other granular products in general.
  • the inventive hand-held dispenser may be easily connected to a user's belt, as shown in figure 9 , or it may be worn, through a cord, to the user's neck.
  • the inventive dispenser is clamped to a belt, it will allow to take the granular product held therein by a single user's hand both for opening the inlet/out door and for collecting the delivered material with a target dose.
  • knob or handle 9 it is possible to drive the knob or handle 9 by a thumb of a hand and collect the product delivered from the delivery opening 4 by the palm of that same hand.
  • the inlet/outlet door opening mechanism spring will allow the cap to easily automatically return to its starting closure position.
  • the invention has provided a hand-held dispenser allowing to transport and deliver granular products in a much more easier way than prior like dispensers.
  • the hand-held dispenser according to the present invention allows to precisely meter the product being delivered while allowing it to be collected in the same user's hand.
  • the used materials, as well as the contingent size and shapes can be any, depending on requirements.
