Description

Sept. 16, 1930. w. D. HIMES 1,775,959
DISPENS ING REGEPTAOLE Filed March 3, 1928 Patented Sept. 16, 1930 PATENT OFFICE WILLIAM D. HIMES, OF YORK, PENNSYLVANIA DISPENSING RECEPTAOLE Application fi1ed March 3, 1928.
This invention relates to dispensing receptacles and has for its particular object the provision of a simple two-piece container having a removable top and having registering apertures in the bottom section and in the top section to discharge the candy or other contents.
In such items as five cent containers of pellet candy there is extreme difiiculty in packing the goods so that they can be removed without spilling. I have found that an extremely satisfactory package for pellet candy can be had if the slip fit cover of a shallow can be notched and a corresponding 1 notch or opening be made in the bottom section of the container.
I have in such a container all of the advantages of the slip fit lid and may bring the slots into registry and pour out a certain quantity of the pellets and after the pellets are removed to a reasonable extent the lid may, if desired, be removed without spilling the remaining pellets. or the pellets can all be poured out thru the registering apertures.
While I intend the device primarily for candy its field of usefulness is most naturally very much greater and the invention is obviously applicable to the usual cylindrical paper pill box particularly with homeopathic pellets.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a view of the complete closed container.
Figure 2 is a perspective of the lid or cover.
Figure 3 is a perspective of the can or box which forms the bottom section of the container.
Figure 4 is a modification.
In Figures 1, 2 and 3 of the drawings I have shown one embodiment of the invention, the container in this case being of metal and consisting of a can 10 having a 5 rim 11, a bottom 12 and a cover positioning bead 14:. A slot 15 extends down to the head 14.
The lid or cover, like the body is a single piece of metal having a top 20, rim 21 and 0 cylindrical wall 22, the latter slipping on Serial No. 258,956.
the upper portion of the wall of the can so that when the rim 21 engages the bead 14: the two parts of the container are freely rotatable.
A slot 25 is cut in the flange or side wall of the lid and preferably is of the same width as the slot 15 in the bottom section. The two slots may be readily brought into registry by rotating the lid upon the bottom section and when in registry the pellets 26 may readily be poured from the container.
In the modified form shown in Figure 4 the bead 14 of the can 10 is reversed, that is inturned, and the cover wall 22 is slightly inturned to be caught thereby, without, however, in any way preventing the ready intentional removal of the lid or cover.
In all the modifications the cover shall be freely removable because it is a feature of the invention that the contents shall be easy of access, the intention being that the alined slots shall be used only to prevent spilling of the contents, especially when the containor is full.
What I claim is:
A two-piece receptacle for candy and the like consisting of a container having a bottom and a cylindrical wall in which there is a slot extending to the rim edge, a cover having a cylindrical wall telescoping with the container wall and having a slot therein extending to the rim edge, said slots being adapted to be rotated into registry to discharge a portion of the contents by rotation of either the cover or the container, said cover being freely removable from the container for filling, said container wall having an inturned bead and the cover edge being slightly inturned to engage lightly the bed.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
WILLIAM D. HIMES.
