assen EFHQE;
JOHN J. KEGLER, OF CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA.
BROMO-SELTZER DISPENSER.
Application filed January 29, 1921. Serial no.'4 4 1,0s9.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN J. KEGLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cedar Rapids, in thecounty of Linn and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bromo-Seltzer.
Dispensers; and I do'herebydeclare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to the dispensing of measured uantities of substances in granular or pow ered form, and more particularly suchsubstances as bromo-seltzer, and the like, as dispensed in drug-stores.
The object of the invention is to provide such stores with a simple, automatic measuring device adapted to deposit inga glass a normal dose of bromo-seltzer, or other powdery substance usually sold in regular, predetermined quantities.
The invention is fully described and claimed in the specification following, reference bein had to the accompanying draw in in w ichzig. 1 is a side elevation of a dispensing device embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a central, vertical section, showing the working parts of the same. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the powder chamber.
In the drawing, the numeral 1 denotes a base, to which is secured a vertical, tubular standard 2. Connected with the standard near its upper end is a horizontal arm 3, to the outer end of which connects a vertical, tubular receiver 4, open at both ends, the lower end being somewhat constricted. The neck, as the horizontal arm may be briefly designated, carries a bushing 5, which serves as a bearing for a spindle 6. To the end of the spindle projecting into the standard is secured a spiral cam 7 by which a partial rotation is imparted to the spindle by the movement of a fork 8, having'pins 9 in register with the grooves in the cam. The fork formspart of a lever 10 pivoted at 11 in a slotted bearing-block 12. The offset lower end of the lever projects outwardly through a slot 13 in the standard, and is provided with a foot-plate 14 having an upstandin shoulder 15. The foot serves as a rest for a glass 16, by means of which the operator pushes the foot-ofthe lever backwardly, and so rotates thespindle. A suitable spring 10* serves to restore the lever to normal.
To the outer end of the spindle is attached a measurin receptacle 17. This is shown provided with a square socket 18, which registers with a similar throat 19 in a diaphragm 20 mounted above it. The outside of the measuring cup, here shown as spherical, fits neatly in a corresponding seat under the diaphragm, to prevent leakage. A complete movement of the lever imparts a half revolution to the cup, and'the contents drop through the outlet 21.
The chamber 4.- is of the right diameter to receive the mouth of a bromo-seltzer-bottle 22, which is inverted overit, and is held steadil in position by a rubber band 23 aroun its neck.
It is evident that so long as a supply of the powder is'provided the instrument is alwirrs ready for use. Theglass being placed in position on the lever foot, is pushed back, and catches the dose of powder as it falls.
As ordinarily dispensed there is apt to be uncertainty in the size of the dose, with incident waste of material,and an unsanitary scattering of powder, which must be repeatedly wiped up. There is also the loss 'of time in getting down the bottle, removing the cork, and measuring, oruessing at the dose. The device as described is designed to provide better means for dispensing such drugs as have been indicated, and which are in constant and universal demand.
Having thus described my invention, .1 claim 1. In a dispensing device, a receiving chamber, a rotative cup mounted therein, aspiral cam connecting with the cup, and a lever co-operating with said cam to reverse the position of the cup.
2. In a dispensing device, a bottle'holding receiving chamber, a rotative cup mounted in said chamber, a spindle therefor a spirai cam on said spindle, a forked lever engag ing said cam, and an outstanding foot on the lever. below the cup, whereby the lever may having a projecting foot whereby it is 110- 10 he pushed by a glass receiving the discharge tuated to oscillate the cup.
from the cup. In testimony whereof I aflix my signature 1%. In a dispensing device, a receiver adnptin presence of two witnesses.
ml to hold the mouth of an inverted bottle,
a rolative (-np mounted therein, a spindle JOHN J? KEGLER therefor. a spiral cam on the spindle, a sup porting standard, a forked lever engaging the 0am. and pivoted to the standard, and
