Application February 28, 1939, Serial No. 259,041 1 claim. (c1. zal-7s) This invention relates to containers designed primarily for containing paste, grease and semiliquid substances.
An important object of the invention is to provide a container of this character having means for forcing the material contained therein, from the container, to the end that the entire contents of the container may be dispensed or removed.
Another important object of the invention is to provide a container of this character having a rotatable cover formed with a discharge opening disposed at an oblique angle with respect to thewall of the container, so that the material forced from the container, will be in full View of the person operating the cover of the container, thereby insuring the desired quantity of material being dispensed, and reducing waste to a minimum.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a container having a pair of discharge openings arranged in such a way that different materials may be packed in a single container, and that by rotating the container cover in opposite directions, the different materials may be ejected therefrom, at the will of the operator.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein described,
.may be made within the scope of what is claimed,
without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawing: i
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view through a container constructed in accordance with the invention.
Figure 2 is a front elevational View thereof.
Figure 3 is a plan view of the container.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken on line tI-fl of Figure 1.
Referring to the drawing in detail, the container, which is indicated generally by the reference character 5, is inthe form of a jar, however, it is to be understood that the construction of the container to vary the design thereof, may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.
The container is provided with an integral partition t which extends throughout the height of Ithe container, and has its inner edge terminated on a vertical line drawn centrally through the container.
The rotary cover of the container is indicated by the reference character l, and ts over the open end of the container, where it is held against displacement, by means of the annular rib 8 that is fitted in a groove formed in the outer surface of the container, as clearly shown by Figure l of the drawing. The cover is constructed preferably of metal, and is provided with split portions, s0 that the cover may be forced over the container, the sections of the cover between the split portions thereof expanding and causing the annular rib 8 to engage within Ithe groove, when the rib falls opposite the groove.
Formed integral with the cover 1, and extending into the container, is a partition indicated at 9, the partitionbeing of a width to contact with the free edge of the partition 6, to provide a close fit between the partitions 6 and 9.
The cover 'l is formed with an enlargement or rib It! disposed on the outer surface thereof, the enlargement having its outer surface inclined as at iI providing a surface disposed at an oblique angle with respect -to the side of the container. This enlargement l0 is arranged adjacent to the uprper end of the partition 9, and is provided with discharge openings l2 and I3 disposed on opposite sides of the partition 9. Recessed portions substantially wedge-shaped in formation, are provided in the enlargement IU of the cover,
i at points directly over the discharge openings I2 and I3, the recessed .portions being designed to accommodate the wedge-shaped closures i4 that are shown as positioned therein. These wedgeshaped closures are provided with lips I5 that extend over the edge of Ithe cover l, to be engaged by the nger nail of the .person using the lcontainer, to remove the wedge-shaped closures.
The outer surface of the cover I is provided with vertical ribs I6 providing a gripping surface' to permit the cover to be rotated. Similar ribs indicated at Il are formed near the lower end of the container 5, to provide a gripping surface and prevent` rotary movement of the container, as the cover is being rotated.
An outer cover indicated at I8 ilts over the cover l, and is provided with threads that cooperate with the threads I9 of the container, whereby the outer cover may be secured in position. Ribs 20 are also formed on the outer cover l8to provide a gripping surface so that `the cover may be readily rotated.
From the foregoing it will be seen that due to the construction shown and described, different materials may be packed in the container, and
that by rotating the inner cover I in either direction, material will be pressed between the partitions and 9, and caused to be ejected through the discharge opening in communication with the space between the partitions 6 and 9, from which the material is .being forced. It will of course be understood that before rotating the cover, the closure I4 closing the discharge open-- ing of the compartment from which the material is to lbe remo-ved, will be lifted from its recess, allowing the material to pass freely from the container.
As before stated, due to the angle at which the discharge openings are disposed, the person dispensing material lfrom the container will have full view of the material passing therefrom, to the end that only the desired quantity of material may be removed, thereby eliminating waste which usually occurs by too great a quantity of the material being forced from the container.
While I have shown the container as provided with dual discharge openings, it is to be understood that the principles of the invention may be carried out in a container wherein only one discharge opening is provided.
What is claimed is:
A dispensing container 'comprising an outer casing, a vertical partition extending inwardly from the Wall thereof and extending throughout the length of the casing, a rotary cover closing the casing, a partition carried by the cover and extending into the casing, the free edges of the partitions contacting, an enlargement formed on the cover` and having an end surface thereof inclined with respect to the side of the container, said inclined surface having discharge openings arranged on opposite sides of the partition carried by the cover, whereby various types of material contained in the casing may be pressed between the partitions, according to the direction of rotation of the cover, forcing the material through the discharge openings.
