POWDER DISPENSER.
Application filed. December 26, 1924. Serial No. 758,251.
My invention relates to improvement 1D powder puff. The invention also includes means for cutting into the powder in a manner so as to feed the same into the puff compartment by operating the two compartments together as The simple, inexpensive construction of my powder dispenser provides a suitable means or compact which has material advantages in the dispensing of the powder and includes means whereby the manual force of pressing and twisting the parts of my compact dispenses into the puff compartment the desired amount of powder without waste and insuring a larger or smaller amount of powder as the case may be. In this detail of construction my invention provides a much more satisfactory means of dispensing the powder to'the pufi than where a spring meansis used because the force can be increased as the case may be, so that the powder can be dispensed to the powder puff compartment in large or small quantities.
Another feature of the invention includes a construction wherein the compact can be taken apart and readily cleansed in the separation of the parts. This also permits the powder to be replenished in the powder compartment from time to time. 7
Other novel features, together with the peculiar arrangement and construction of the parts will be more fully set forth in the following specification and claims.
In the drawings,
Figure 1 illustrates a side view of my powder dispenser.
Figure 2 is a similar view when there 1s practically no powder in the dispenser.
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view of my dispenser.
Figure 4 is a plan view with the cover open, showing thev powder puff compare ment the powder is desired.
Figure 5 is a detail of a portion of the powder dispenser,
Figure 6 is a side view of theportion illustrated in Figure 5.
In the drawings my powder dispenser and compact A is formed of two parts, B and C, which are of a simple construction, the partB providing a powder compart-v ment and the" part C the puff compartment. The part B is formed with a powder compartment 10 into which thepowder is placed which is in loose form and of a pulverized-nature, such as is used in ordinary face powdersbut not of a solid cake like nature as is sometimes used in compacts.
, The compartment C telescopes into the compartment B and frictionally engages against'theside walls of the same so as to hold the parts B and C together andagainst accidental disengagement. It is desirable tohave suflicientfrict-ion between the telescoping of the parts B and C to hold the parts in relatively firm and operable position.
The bottom 11 of part C is formed with openings 131which are provided by slitting the material of the bottom 11 in .a manner so that the openings 13 are triangular and the material which is bent inward, as illustrated in Figures 5 and V6 to make the openings 13 projects in sharp triangular tooth-like members 14: with cutting points 15 adapted to project into the powder in the compartment 10 and form cuttersfor engaging and causing the powder to be forced through the openings 13. A comparatively large number of openings 13 are provided in the bottom 11 or as many as may be de sired, so as to provide the amount of powder that is required to be forced into the chamber 16 of the pufl compartment C.
- By using manualforce the parts B and C of the powder dispenser or compact A can be twisted in either direction while at the same time they are pressed together, thus causing powder from the compartment 10 to be forced into the chamber 16.
The powder puff E in the compartment 0 is contained within the chamber 16 as illustrated in Figure 3 and normally rests against the bottom 11 over the openings 13, When the powder is dispensed from the corn par-talent 10 into the chamber 1e it is forced on the apex thereof, which are against the puff E, and by more or less force in the twisting of the parts B and C a more or less amount of powder can be transferred from the compartment to the puff E. This is av material advantage of my invention. It does away with any automatic springs for pressing the powder into the puff compartment which do not prove altogether satisfactory. This construction also saves the powder by dispensing only the amount desired, keeps the powderseparate from the puff compartment and provides a much more sanitary means of carrying the powder separate from the puff, keeping the puff away formed on the portion C a stop is provided which preventsjthe cutting points from digging into the bottom 1801 the powder compartment B as the annular flange 17 engages against the upper edge of the side walls of the compartment 10 and prevents the bottom 11 from being forced too far into the compartment- 10.
jThe compartment C is provided with a hinged cover 19 of ordinary, well known construction in which a mirror 20 is contained so that a suitable means is provided tor nsing the powder in the compact and adding to the convenience of the use of my powder dispenser. Obviously, rouge or other suitable material can 'be contained within the" compartment 10 as may be 'desired, and'the compact can be of any suitable size '01: dimensions, 'so that it will provide the most desirable construction for the user. f
- The sim le construction of my dispenser is of considerable importance and the cuttihg and engaging means formed on the bottom 11 is very important in dispensing the desired amount of powder into the puff comartm ent, as i'sa'lso true of the openings '13 or'med by the depending portions of the Writer which make up *the cutting memlliers l l'. The triangular sbape'of the openings 18 causes the powder from the comp'ar'tment 10 to be dispensed into the pun chamber 16 in either direction of twisting of the ,parts B and C and by reason of the reduced openings on the inner sides of the Openings 13, as is illustrated in Figure 5, the powder will not freely come out through these restricted openings unless the bottom 11 is forced against the same by pressure of the telescoping parts 13 and C. Thus none of the powder is wasted in the use of my compact and dispenser. This feature is very important owing to the fact that face pow- "ders of a liigh grade quality are expensive and it is undesirable to waste the same, yet unlike the cake powders sufficient powder can be secured against the powder puff when it desired.
In accordance with the patent statutes '1 have described the principles of operation of my invention, illustrating the best embodiment thereof, but I desire to have it understood that this is only illustrative and that the invention can be carried out by other means and applied to uses other than those above set forth within the scope of the following claims.
I claim:
1'. A powder dispenser and compact including pair of cu-p like frictionally held telcscoping members which form the exterior of said dispenser the bottom of the inner member being formed with a series of puncl-ied openings having adapted to form powder cutting means depending into the outer cup member, a cover ragged edges for the inner cup memberand a powder (puff adapted to be contained within the inner member in position to receive the powder from the openings formedin the bottom of the inner member as it is dispensed thereth'rough. I
2. A powder dispenser compact includ ing a powder (puff, a pair of members nested;
andfrict-iona-lly held together forming, the exterior casing, one member forming a compartment for powder and the other member forming a compartment for said powder puff and means formed in the bottom of the puff 1 compartment member to cause powder in the powder compartment member to be dis- [penscd into the puff compartment by rotation and {pressing of the members together.
