Application July 25, 1940, Serial No. 347,548
lClaim.
This invention appertains to new and useful improvements in dispensers and more particularly to a powder dispenser for dispensing hand powder such as is used in billiard parlors by billiard players.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a dispenser which will dispense powdered substance in a manner which will preclude the possibility of the substance getting onto the clothes of the operator or upon the adjacent floor.
Another important object of the invention is to provide a dispenser of the character stated which is of simple construction, easy to operate and not susceptible to the ready development of defects.
These and various other important objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader of the following specification.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 represents a perspective view of the dispenser. l t t Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view through the dispenser.
Figure 3 is a transverse vertical sectional View taken substantially on the line 3-3 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a horizontal sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of Figure 2.
Figure 5 is a horizontal sectional view taken substantially on the line 55 ofFigure 2.
Figure 6 is a perspective view of the slide.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen that the dispenser consists of the box-like structure generally referred to by numeral 5 and made up of the front wall 6, the rear wall I, the side walls 8, the top wall 9 and the bottom wall Ii].
Numeral ll denotes a horizontal wall in this box-like structure mounted a substantial distance above the bottom so as to define the compartment I2 and the compartment l3 in which is the hopper structure M, the top of which has the hinged closure l5. v
Just under the intermediate wall H is the pair of guide rods I 6|6, which extend from the front wall to the rear wall and on these rods [6 on which eyes I! and I8 projecting laterally from the slide I9 are slidable. The eyes l8 are provided with laterally disposed pins 20 to which the inner ends of the tension spring 2l-2| are connected, while the forward ends of these springs are anchored as at 22 to thefront wall 6. Thus it can be seen that the springs 2| serve to maintain the slide ill to pull forwardly and under the bottom of the hopper l4.
As can be seen in Figures 3 and 5, the partition II is formed with a plurality of slots 23 at p the portion thereof underlying the hopper l4 and through these slots project the pins 24 which rise from the forward end portion of the slide [9. Obviously, these pins serve not only to keep the slots clear but also to loosen up the powder contained in the hopper [4 so that there will also be a ready and immediate supply of loose powder capable of dropping through the slots 23 and on to the underlying hand of the operator.
Between the forward wall of the hopper l4 and the front wall 6 is a brush 25 having rearwardly slanting bristles 26. It is preferable that this brush can be removed. The bristles are such as to depend below the plane of the partition I I.
A cushion block 2lis suitably secured to the underside of the forward end of the slide 9.
The operator inserts his hand through the opening 28' in the front wall 6 and pushes against the resilient block 21, say with his three longest fingers, to slide the slide l9. As the slide moves rearwardly, the pin 24 will loosen some of the powder and the same will drop through the slot 23 onto the operators hand. As the operator retracts his hand, the slide l9is pulled back to a position underlying the hopper l4 and at the same time the brush bristles 26 serve to sweep all surplus powder from the operators hand.
A slide drawer 28 is provided in the compartment 2n underlying the hopper l4 and is movable through one side of the box-like structure as shown in Figure 1. It is preferable that the drawer 28 have one slanting side wall 29 so that the same will ride against the lower edge of the front wall 6 at the opening 28'.
While the foregoing specification sets forth the invention in specific terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size and materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
Having described the claimed as new is:
In a dispenser, a hopper, a bottom for the hopper provided with a plurality of closely spaced and parallel slots, a slide plate disposed under the bottom and being adapted to be slid to uncover the slots in the bottom, said slide plate beingprovided with upstanding members extending through the slots of the bottom to loosen up material in the bottom portion of the hopper as the plate is slid to slot uncovering position, guide means for the slide gate, said guide means consisting of a pair of horizontally spaced rods and eye members extending laterally from the longiinvention, what is tudinal edges of the slide plate and being slidably disposed on the rods.
