SANITARY DISPENSING APPARATUS.
closed in my co-pending application Serial Number 175,4387 vfiled June 18, 1917, and have as their primary object to provide a construction by means of which to adequately control the dischargeof the contents of the apparatus so as to obtain a predetermined quantity of said contents. It is further comprehended as a feature of the discharge means utilized in said apparatus that by proper manipulation thereof either a relatively small or relatively large amount of the material to be dispensed may be had at the will of the operator, this result being accomplished by the special arrangement of the valve instrumentalities forming a part of the discharge means above referred to.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts all as hereinafter more fully described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying draws ings, wherein:
. Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view through an apparatus constructed in accordance with my present invention;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the device, a portion of the upper part of the apparatus being broken away and shown in section and the manipulating elements for the discharge means being removed as when it is desired to fill the receptacle;
Figs. 3and L1 are sectional view s on the lines 3-3 and 4.-4 respectively of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a sectional view of the manipulating heads for the discharge means,
Fig. 6 is an enlarged sectional view of the discharge means, the manipulating ele ments therefor being omitted;
Fig. 7 is a sectional view on the line 7-7 of Fig. 1; and
Figs. 8 and 9 are sectional views of the base portions of the apparatus.
Throughout the following detail description, and on the several figures of the draw- Specication of Letters Patent.

ings, similar ypartsare referred to by like reference characters.
I teferring to the drawings, 1 indicates the main body portion of the dispensing apparatus forming the subject matter of this in' vention, preferably of glass material and4 provided at its lower periphery with protuberances 2 for interlocking with the base section of the device. The base portion consists of the upper part 3 on which the globe 1 is mounted and the standing portion 11 1n which the upper section 3 is received. The lower portion of said'upper section terminates in a funnel shaped passage 5 leading from the intermediate constricted throat portion 6 to the closed bottom 7 in' which is provided a central opening 8. The material to be dispensed, for instance sugar,
is contained in the globe portion 1 and the upper portion 3 of the base section and is retained in such container by discharge means now to beset forth.
The means by `which control of the dis pensing of the -contents of the apparatus is attained, consists of the discharge valve 9 which normally occupies a position at the lower portion of the throat 6, the cut-oi valve 10 arranged above said discharge valve and in spaced relation thereto, together with actuating means for these parts. It will be observed that the-valves 9 and 10 are frusto-conical in formation, the discharge valve being carried by the rod 11 seated at its lower end in a spider 12 and carrying at fits lower portion a spring 13 which lies intermediate the spider and the discharge valve and holds this part of the discharge means in its normal position closing the throat or discharge opening. The valve 10 is carried by the lower eXtremity of the tube 14C in which the rod' 11 is disposed and a spring 15 lies intermedi ate the discharge valve 9 and the cut-0E valve 10 holding these parts in theirrelative positions under normal conditions.
weight of the contents of the receptacle resting thereupon. Adjacent to the lvupper end the rod 11 has a pin 16 which projects into alined -slots 14 in the outer tube`14.
to retain the cut-off valve against movement by virtue of the i tus, the operator disposes the dispensing apparatus upon the receptacle into which the contents of the dispensing apparatus is to bei discharged, such for instance as the cup 21 shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1. The discharge means is now operated according to the quantity of su ar which is desired. Assuming, for examp e, that a small predetermined quantit'y is desired, the fingers grasp the head 18 and press the same downwardl. Owing to the pin and slot connec tion, h the discharge valve 9 and the cut-off valve 10 will be depressed, the former passing slightlyv out of the throat 6 and the'latter cutting oft' the supply from the throat 6 simultaneously, so that the material which has` ravitated into position between these va ves is discharged into the cup through the funnel passage 5. This quantity which has 'been dlscharged may be a spoonful quantity.
Assuming, further', for example, that the operator wishes a larger guantity than that just referred to, instead o directly manipulating the discharge means in the manner just described, a 'nger is placed upon the short plunger 20 and the rod 11 depressed so as to 4move the discharge valve 9 downwardly in the throat 6 to its lowermost position in this portion or passage. The contents of the rece tacle will naturally follow the movement o the lower valve and therefore a greater uantity of such' contents will y be introduced etween the valves 9 and 10 in an obvious manner. At this point the pin 16 will reach 'the bottom of the slots 14', whereupon both therod 11 and the tube 14 will be actuated and the two valves 9 and 10 moved downwardly, the latter cutting olf the supply of the sugar as the former passes from the throat and discharges the larger quantity of the commodity into'the receptacle arranged beneath the apparatus to receive the same.
vIt will thus be apparent that the actuating means forming a part of the discharge instrumentalities have independent and conjoint action such that one of the valve members may be moved relatively to the other or both moved simultaneously, according to the quantity of the material contained by the apparatus that is desired.
,I preferably arrange the springs for re'- 1,sos,141 f taining the relatively movable parts of the discharge means in their normal positions at the points shown in the drawings because they are there protected by the shedding action of the valves with which they coperate.
When it is desired to lill the receptacle 1 the actuating head 18 which const1tutes a stopper or closing means for the filling openlng is removed and the short plunger 20 is detachable therewith. It is obvious, however, that slight changesmay be made in the arrangement of parts as hereinbefore described withoutdeparting from the spirit of the invention and within the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new is:
1,. In dispensing apparatus of the class described, the combination with a receptacle havmg a discharge outlet, of discharge means for delivering the contents of the receptacle in predetermined quantities including spaced valves one movable relatively to the other or both movable simultaneously in effecting discharge action, according to whether a relatively smaller or larger quantity of the contents is to be delivered, and means for operating either of the valves aforesaid.
2. In dispensing apparatus of the class described',vthe combination with a receptacle having a discharge passage, of discharge means for delivering the contents of the receptacle 4in predetermined quantities including spaced valves arranged at the discharge `passage so as to receive a predetermined quantity of the contents of the receptacle between said valves, one of said valves being movable prelimlnarily to discharge action along the passage to increase the holding capacity between the valves, the other of said valves being thereupon movable with the first mentioned valve to effect discharge of said predetermined quantity, and separate actuating means connected to each of said valves.
3. In dispensing apparatus of the class described, a receptacle having a dischargey outlet, and discharge means including a discharge valve normally closing the discharge outlet, a cut-olf valve adapted to coperate with the outlet to limit the quantity discharged and spaced from the discharge valve, and means for actuating either or both of said valves.
4. In Adispensing apparatus of the cla-ss described, a receptacle having a discharge outlet, discharge means comprising relatively movable partsyactuating means for each part and a connection intermediate said parts wherebyto actuate one part from the actuating means for the other part or to actuate both parts from one actuating means.
5. In dispensing apparatus of the class described,l a receptacle having a discharge outlet and discharge means' comprising spaced With the discharge outlet, and spring retaining means for holding the valves in normal spaced relation and arranged to be protected from the contents of the receptacle by the valves aforesaid.
6. In dispensing apparatus of the class described, a receptacle having a discharge outlet at one end and a filling opening at the other, dischargel means for controlling the quantity of the contents of said receptacle to be discharged, and actuating means therefor including a manipulative head consti- .tuting aclosure for the filling opening.
