2 Claims.
The present invention relates to dispensing devices of a type designed primarily for use in dispensing oil well stufiing box rubbers and similar articles of ring form and has for its primary object to provide a cylindrical container having a discharge opening at its lower end and a hinged door provided with a plate movable into and out of position in the discharge opening and provided with an ejecting lug for sliding the bottommost article outwardly through the discharge opening into a position for conveniently grasping and removing the same.
A further object of the invention is to provide a guide rod extending longitudinally of the cylinder to maintain the articles in a stacked position therein.
A still further object is to provide a dispensing device of this character of simple and practical construction, which is neat and attractive in appearance, relatively inexpensive to manufacture and otherwise well adapted for the purposes for which the same is intended.
Other objects and advantages reside in the details of construction as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view and Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view taken substantially on a line 3-3 of Figure 2.
Referring now to the drawing in detail, the numeral 5 designates a dispensing cylinder having a pair of vertically spaced loops 6 secured to the outer wall thereof for receiving the upwardly extending tongues I spaced outwardly from a wall-attaching bracket 8 for removably supporting the cylinder in an upright position on a supporting structure 9. The tongue has a downturned end i which is swung outwardly to provide a yieldable wedging lit in the loop.
The front wall of the cylinder, at the bottom portion thereof, is provided with a discharge opening 10 and the bottom ll of the cylinder is formed with an enlarged notch l2 extending inwardly from the opening l0. On the lower portion of the outer wall of the cylinder 5, at one end of the opening I0, is a hinge member l3 to which a closure member 14 is hingedly connected, the closure member being of arcuate form to close the discharge opening [0 and the closure member includes a horizontal plate l5 adapted for movement inwardly of the opening [0 to form a removable bottom for the cylinder, To the inner edge of the plate I5 is formed an upstanding lug I6 adapted for positioning against the rear wall of the cylinder, when the closure member is in a closed position, as clearly illustrated in Figure 2 of the drawing, whereby to engage the rear edge of the stacked articles I! placed in the cylinder to slide the lowermost stacked article forwardly during the opening movement of the closure memher into a position for conveniently grasping the same for removing the article from the dispenser. The lug I6 is inclined as shown in Figure 2, in a rearward direction with respect to the closing movement of the closure member to facilitate the sliding of the lug under the lowermost article.
The articles to be dispensed from the cylinder are preferably in ring form, such as oil well stuffing box rubbers and a guide rod I8 is positioned concentrically in the cylinder to guide the rubbers into a stacked position while filling the cylinder, the guide rod being suspended from the cap l9 closing the upper end of the cylinder, the said cap being provided with a handle 20 for removing the same.
As clearly illustrated in Figure 2 of the drawing, the lower end of the guide rod I8 is suspended above the bottom of the cylinder so as not to interfere with the convenient removal of the lowermost rubber during the dispensing thereof, and since these rubbers are split transversely as indicated at 20, the cylinder may be conveniently refilled by removing the cap l9 and raising the rod l8 slightly upwardly, whereby the split portion of the washers may enable the same to be easily placed in position on the rod for sliding downwardly thereof into the cylinder.
The lower portion of the cylinder is provided with a window opening 2| in order that an attendant may observe when it is necessary to replenish the supply of rubbers in the cylinder.
It is believed the details of construction and manner of use of the invention will be readily understood from the foregoing without further detailed explanation.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim is:
1. A dispenser for relatively thin cylindricallyshaped articles comprising a cylinder adapted to receive said articles in stacked formation, means for supporting the cylinder in an upright position, said cylinder having a discharge opening in its side Wall at the bottom portion thereof, and exposing a portion of the bottom of the cylinder, said exposed portion of the bottom having a notch extending inwardly from its exposed edge, a closure for said opening hingedly connected to the cylinder, and a plate carried by the closure movable into and out of position through the opening to form a movable bottom for the cylinder, said notch being adapted to accommodate the finger of a person for engaging the lowermost article in the cylinder when the closure is in its open position.
2. A dispensing device of the class described comprising a cylinder for the reception of articles having'centrally disposed apertures, means for supporting the cylinder in an upright position,
said cylinder having a discharge opening in its side wall at the bottom portion thereof, closure means for said opening, and a cap for the upper end of the cylinder and a guide rod suspended from the cap and extending longitudinally within the cylinder and adapted to be received in the apertures of the articles whereby to guide the articles into a stacked position when placed in the cylinder through the upper end thereof, said guide rod terminating short of the lower end of the cylinder to provide for the successive dis- 10 charge of articles through said discharge opening.
