. My invention relates to boxes or containers adapted to hold an assortment of articles, such as buttons, in a divided or chambered receptacle from any compartment of which one or more of the bodies may be readily removed or dispensed.
An aim of the invention is to provide ade- 'pository of this character in which all of the groups of buttons or other bodies may be readily seen so that the desired one may be easily selected for use. i v
An added purpose of the invention is to supply a box of this type or style from which the buttons or other members willvnot be unintentionally discharged and in which there is no danger of the buttons in one compartment finding access to another chamber H1 which they do not belong.
Also, it is an object of the invention to provide a construction having these and other valuable structural and functional characteristics, which can be manufactured at a relatively small cost and yet which will effectively and efliciently perform in a mannor for the attainment of the desired results.
To enable those acquainted with this art to understand the invention, in the ,accompanyingdrawing, forminga part of this specification, a present, preferred embodiment of the invention has been illustrated in detail, and, for the sake of simplicity, like reference numerals have "been employed throughout the several views to designate the same parts.
In this drawing Figure 1 is a face ore-top view of the assortment dispensing container with a portion of the transparent cover cut away;
Figure 2 is a vertical cross-section on line -22 of Figure 1; a
Figure 3 is a fragmentary, vertical section on line3-3ot Figure2; and
Figure dis a perspective 'viewofone of the paste-board or other elements, several of which are employed to divide the container into individual compartments.-
Referring to this drawing, it'will :be perceived that the box or areceptacle, desirably of :round shape, has :a bottom :11, preferably, but not necessarily, of metalyto which, ,by a
fish; ce t of the s ru ture, a new .o h eempa iene eeerelatediuel ill Seem or joint s iee e e peetehe led or 1 other circular rim or wall 13 bent over in- Werdly a its t p edge t 4,- to provide a s itable,smooth margin and finish at, such point, the member 13 being usually concealed by an attractive paper or other cover 15.

Arms 2Llareused not only ,to position the 7 radiating walls17, but also to strengthen and to stiffen them, and to this endQeachQsuch .arm hastwo, parallel,,downturned flanges 25, 2 atnd ine eeter th,ah pp e side so I From vwhat precedes it will-be readily unv derstood that this metal frame can be made from a single sheet of thin metal by suitable punching and bending operations;
As is clearly shown in Figure 2, the top edges of the partition walls 17 and-the thin,-
,From the foregoing, it should be apparent 30 that the arched, top surface of the metal member21 keeps the revoluble celluloid cover in' the same form and under slight strain or tensionso that it will not turn unintentionally, and itscertain contactwith the arms 24, the buttons are effectively prevented from sliding, under it "from one compartment,
where they belong, into a next .fchamber to which'they'should not haveaccess. 1 I I The transparent, top, rotatable disc 28,"at 40 one point near its edge, has anaperture 31 1 which, by the turningof the disc by hand, may be shifted into register with any one of the several compartments 16 for thejdis'charge 'therethrough' o'f one or more of the buttons 2 contained in such compartment.
In order that'the aperture or delivery opening 31' may be closed in one position ofthe' revoluble cover, the metal frame has an un- 7 'apertured section 32 slightly larger than the 5 deliveryjopening 31, and when thisaperture isin register withsuch fiat plate portion. 32, 'asshoWn in Figure 1, none of the buttons will beldelivered. w I v v y To have access to any one of the compartments 16,v it'is merely necessary for the operator to turn the "transparent cover to bring the opening 31 over suchcompartment,
' whereupon by tilting the whole container one or more buttons will fallioutfand when the desired number has been secured, the cover i may be turned toagain bring the opening "over the plate section 32.; 1 I r Thoseskilled in this art will readily understand that the invention .is not necessarily limited and restricted to the particular em- 'maintaining it in position, the margin of overlying said frame with its margin in the a circular groove between said frameandisaid bodiment shown, and that many changes and modifications maybe incorporated therein without departure from the-heart and essence of the invention as presented in the appended claims and without the loss or sacrifice of any 7 of its material benefits or advantages. lclaimz I 1. In an assortment dispensing container, the combination ofairound receptacle having a bottom-wall anda circular side-wall the upper portion offwhich is turned over inwardly of the receptacle, V-shaped partition walls dividing said receptacle into sepa rate compartments, said partition-walls having their apexes at the center of the. receptacle and their free endsfat' the inner surface of said side-wall, the top edges of said partition-walls sloping upwardly from said side-wall to the centeriof the receptacle, a slightly dome-shaped bent metal frame overlying said partition-walls andhavinga central sectionv at the center of the receptacle,
