Definitions

  • the present invention relates to improvements in powder boxes in which the powder is brought to the upper' surface of a sieve distributor by the partial rotation of this sieve.
  • the improvements have for the' principal object to render such powder boxes more convenient to use, by making them so that they ma be manipulated with a single hand, which is not the case when the sieve has to be manipulated according to a movement of rotation as in winding up a watch.
  • the characteristics of the invention are the follow- 1. A method of operation of the sieve distributor by means of a knob and return spring and after recharging, eiiectingthe raising of the block or charge, so that it comes to rest pressed firmly against the under side of the charging with powder.
  • the present invention allows of the construction of a powder box with automatic distribution, functioning perfectly and hav# ing thegreatest facilities for effectingk the Indeed, at the moment of opening of the distributor sieve, the Vsystem producing the control of themovable base is liberated and the chargingwith powder can thus be effected without'other manipulation.
  • FIG. 1 is a plan view of the open box in its position of use
  • Fig. 2 is a section online A-B of Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 is a plan view of the box in its charging position'
  • Fig. 4 is a section on the line C-D of Fig. 3. y
  • Fig. 5 is a section on the line E-F of Fig. 3, and
  • Figs. 6, 7 and 8 are views of details of construction of the box.
  • the box 1 of square, rectangular or other form' is vprovided. with a closing cover 2 having a mirror and mounted on a spring controlled hinge. In the interior of this box is housed the circular receptacle 3 (Fig. in-
  • a movable false base 4 is provided mounted on the sprin 5 (Fig. V5) an'dcontrolled by two small l(l'ateraldevers 6 and 7 (Fig. 3) pivoting on pins 8 and 9 in the box, the bent back extremities of which levers are? adapted to rest on small lateral pivots ⁇ 18 of the said base'.
  • These two levers'and 7 are connected by means of a rod 11 which is ,controlled by the action of the plate 10k (Fig. 5) forming a spring controlled by a pressbutton 12.
  • the sieve 14 can be slidden in the frame 13 and is caused to have an alternating recti-flinear movement by means of the button 15- and the return spring 20. This action removes a 'desired amount of powder from the charge or block whichpowder passes to the upper surface of the sieve ready for use.
  • Two small plates 17 whose curvature coiresponds to that of the periphery of the receptacle 3 and each having an inclined slot 16, are provided to .close the slots 19 of the receptacle 3 with the upward movement of the pins 18, and thus to prevent losses of rice powder through the slots 19; the two small plates in action are displaced in a path at right angles to the upward movement.
  • this box resides in the fact that it may be operated with a single hand and the sieve works as a grater, by rectilinear alternating movements in contrast with other kinds of boxes, and it is not necessary to cause the rotation of the sieve to obtain the distribution of the powder.
  • the automatic descent of the plate or base 4 is effected by the simple turning up of the frame 13 provided with a distributor sieve 14. Indeed, the blade-spring 10 which is more powerful than the spring 5, brings the levers 6 and 7 into play and the base is lowered automatically ready to receive a new block or charge of powder.
  • the simple closing of this frame 13 causes the neutralization of the spring 10 and the base i on being raised by the spring 5 causes the compression of the charge of powder against the sieve distributor.
  • a powder box comprising a ⁇ box, a lid to the box, a compartment in the box to receive a block of powder, a distributor sieve located at the top of said compartment, a falseI base in the said compartment to receive the said block, spring means to press the block against the under side of the distributor sieve, a press button to impart rec- .tilinear'inovements to the said sieve in one direction, spring means to effect return movements in the opposite direction, and guiding means for the said sieve, for the purposes set forth.
  • a powder box as claimed in claim 1 in which the distributor sieve is mounted to reciprocate in a frame hinged to the box and in which means are provided controlled by the frame for moving the false'base towards the bottom of the compartment when the said frame is in the opened position, and for permitting the false base to move .upwardly under the action of its spring when the frame is in the closed position for the purposes set forth.
  • a powder box as claimed in claim 1 in which the distributor sieve is mounted to reciprocate in a. frame hinged to the box and in which spring means are provided controlled by the frame for moving thev false base towards the bottom of the compartment when the said frame is in the opened position, and for permitting the false base toy move upwardly under the action of its spring when the frame is in the closed position for the purposes set forth.
  • a powder box as4 claimed in claim 1 in which the distributor sieve is mounted to reciprocate in a frame hinged to the box and in which spring means are provided controlled by the frame for moving the false base towards the bottom of the compartment when the said frame is in the opened position, and for permitting the false base to move upwardly under the action of its spring when the frame is in the closed position the spring means controlled by the movement of the frame having a power greater than the spring means for etecting the upward movement of the false base for the purposes set forth.
  • a powder box as claimed in claim 1 in which the distributor sieve is mounted to reciprocate in a frame hinged to the box and in which two levers are provided mounted on pivots on the interior facing walls of" the box, each of the levers having bent extremities to engage pins mounted on side edges of the false base, the other ends of the levers being united by a transverse rod kept pressed upwardly by a bent spring, the said rod being provided with a button controlled by the frame for moving the false base towards the bottom of the compartment when the said frame is in the opened position, and A 1- for permitting the false base to move upwardly under the action of its springwhen the frame is in the closed position the said bent spring having a power greater than the spring means for eii'ecting the upward movement of the false base for the purposes set forth.
