SANITARY LOAF-SUGAR DISPENSER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 23, 1916.
Application filed February 10, 1915. Serial No. 7,279.
tary loaf sugar dispensers of the character disclosed in my Patent No. 1125656, patented January 19, 1915; and the ob ects of the present invention are first, to provide an improved sugar dispenser having few parts and one that maybe easily filled without dismembering the device; second, to provide improved means for preventing the handling of loaf sugar; third, to provide improved means for dispensing one loaf of sugar at a time; means for automatically replenishing an empty compartment from the bowl above it after the said compartment has been moved away from an aperture through which it has dispensed a loaf of sugar; and fifth, to provide improved means whereby the aperture through which the sugar is dispensed is normally closed, so as to prevent the entrance of flies or other insects. I accomplish these several features by means of the device disclosed in the drawings forming a part of the present specification, wherein like characters of reference are used to designate similar parts throughout the said specification and drawings, and in which Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view disbase, the rotatable body mounted thereon, the stationary annular shelf below the drum having the vertical flights thereon, and the means for partially rotating the drum, Fig. '2 is a broken plan view with the cover removed, disclosing the arrangement of the flights and the internal inclined teeth on the drum, and Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view taken on line X-X of Fig. 1 of the drawings, disclosing the aperture in the annular which the said aperture is normally closed by means of the operating lever.
Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1 is used to designate a suitable stationary base plate having a tubular extension 2 within which is rotatably mounted a vertically disposed shaft 3. Rotatably mounted upon the tubular extension 2 of the base 'form a series of fourth, to provide improved -is rigidly secured to objectionable secured at one portion of the periphery o plate 1 is a rotatable body 4 having an annular horizontally disposed shelf 6 having an aperture the rotatable body within the rotatable body 4 and vertically disposed shaft 3 is a lever 8 havmg a spring-controlled pawl 9 thereon arranged to engage the teeth 10 of a drum 12, said drum being provided with a plurality of vertically disposed flights 14, there being 4. Rotatablymounted ,the same number of flights 14 as there are teeth 10, said flights 14 being arranged to compartments, each compartment being arranged to receive one loaf of sugar from the cylindrical glass bowl 16 which is mounted upon the rotatable body 4. In order to deflect the cubes of sugar from the bowl 16 into the compartments between the flights 14, I have provided a cone 17 rigidly secured to the shaft 3 and provided with an extension tension 18 being at all times directly over the aperture 7 in the shelf 6 0f the rotatable body 4. A suitable cover 20 the top of the vertically disposed shaft 3 and provided with an aperture 22 which is arranged to coincide with a similar aperture within a cover 24 rotatably mounted upon the cover 20. WVhen the rotatable cover 24 is moved or partially rotated by means of a suitable knob 26 secured thereto until the aperture therein coincides with the aperture 22 of the cover 20, the sugar may be placed through the coinciding apertures into the glass bowl 16. When the bowl 16 is full, the cover 24 is partially rotated so as to close the aperture 22 and thereby prevent the entranceo matter or insects. The lever 8 extends through a slot 28 within the rotatable body 4fand is arranged to normally close the aperture 7 as disclosed in Fig.3 of the drawings. A suitable stop 30 is the rotatable body 4, the purpose of which will hereinafter be more fully described.
The operation is as follows: By moving the lever 8 in the direction indicated by the curved arrow in Fig. 3 of the drawings, until the said lever 8 assumes the position indicated in dotted lines in the said figure, the pawl 9 will engage one of the teeth 10 and partially rotate the drum 12 through an are equivalent to the distance between the flights 14 and at the same time will uncover the aperture 7 and cause a loaf of 7 therein and formed integral withv upon the 18, said ex-' lever 8 is moved against the stop 30 as hereinbefore described, it is evident that a compartment containing a loaf of sugar will be moved under the said extension 18 and over the aperture 7 and a loaf of sugar willdrop into the said aperture 7.
A spring pawl 33 is secured within the rotatable body 4 and is arranged to normally engage the teeth 10 of the drum 12, for the purpose of preventing a return movement of the said drum 12 when the lever 8 is returnedtoanormal position by the spring 32.
Should the operating lever 8 be on the side opposite the operator, the entire device may be rotated on the stationary base plate 1 by means of the stop 30, inasmuch as the rotatable body 4 and the cone 17, as well as the covers 20 and 24, are all secured to the vertically disposed shaft 3.
It is evident from the foregoing that I have provided an improved loafsugar dis penser having few parts and easy of manipulation, improved means for filling the empty compartments, and means for preventing the entrance of flies or other insects into the interior of the device.
While I have illustrated the square or cube loaf sugar, it is evident that a device may be constructed which will be suitable for half cubes or slabs, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
The details of construction are so susceptible to variation, that I do not wish to confine myself to the precise construction shown herein, but rather to avail myself of any modification that may properly fall within the scope of my invention.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is' 1. A sanitary loaf sugar dispenser comprising a stationary base; a vertically disposed shaft rotatably mounted Within the said base; a body having a slot andan annular shelf with an aperture therein secured to the vertical shaft; a drum "having in- 1 clined teeth and vertically disposed flights thereon arranged to form compartments secured to the shaft and'above the horizontal shelf; a cylindrical glass bowl secured to the body and arranged to contain loaf sugar; a cone secured to the vertical shaft and above thedrum, said cone having an extension secured above the aperture w1th1n the horizontal annular shelf; and a lever pivotally mounted upon the vertical shaft and extending through the slot in the body to the exterior of the said body and adapted to engage one of the inclined. teeth and partially rotate the drum and thereby deposit a loaf of sugar into the aperture in the horizontalannular shelf. 2. A sanitary loaf sugar dispenser comprising a stationary base; a vertically disposed shaft rotatably' mounted within the stationary base; a cylindrical body secured to the vertical shaft and having a slot and an annular horizontal shelf with an aperture therein; a drum-rotatably mounted, on
the shaft above the annular shelf'and 'having vertically disposed flights and intern-a1 inclined teeth thereon;'a cylindrical glass bowl secured to the body and arranged to' rection; a cover secured to the top of theglass bowl; a lever pivotally mounted upon the vertical shaft and below the drum and arranged to normally cover the aperture within the angular shelf; and a-' suitable pawl pivotally mounted upon the lever and adapted to engage one of the teeth on the drum and to partially rotate the said drum and thereby deposit a loaf of sugar into the aperture within the annular shelf when the lever is moved.
In witness whereof hereunto set my sig-- I nature in the witnesses.
