2 Claims. (Cl. 222227) The present invention relates to a mustard dispenser and it consists in the combinations, constructions and arrangements of parts herein described and claimed.
Generally there is provided a mustard dispenser comprising a substantially cylindrically shaped container having a vertically extending revoluble shaft centrally mounted therein and provided at one side with button-operated means for oscillating the shaft which latter extends- ,open but which may be closed by a door having angularly disposed guide members thereon. The movement of the scraper blades over the guide members acts to close the door and force the contents which may have accumulated in the bay downwardly through the passage to be dispensed therethrough.
. It is accordingly an object of the invention to provide a device of the character set forth which is simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture, easy to operate, and yet effective and efficient in use.
Still another object of the invention is the provision, in a device of the character set forth, of a novel means for forcing the contents of a container therefrom.
Still another object of the invention is the provision, in a device of the character set forth, of novel means for oscillating a shaft forming a part of the invention.
Other and further objects of the invention will become apparent from a reading of the following specification taken in conjunction with the drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical elevational view of an embodiment of the invention,
Figure 2 is a sectional view taken along line 22 of Figure 1,
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken along line 3-3 of Figure 1,
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken along line 4-4 of Figure 1,
Figure 5 is a fragmentary sectional view taken along line 5-5 of Figure 1,
Figure 6 is a fragmentary sectional view taken along line 66 of Figure 1,
Figure '7 is a fragmentary sectional View similar to Figure 1 but showing certain of the parts ad- 2 vanced from their position illustrated in Figure 1,
Figure 8 is a fragmentary perspective view of a scraper mechanism forming part of the invention, and
Figure 9 is a fragmentary perspective view of a follower door forming a part of the invention.
Referring more particularly to the drawing, there is shown therein a cylindrical container Ill having a removably mounted relatively thick cap I I at the upper end thereof and a relatively thick substantially conical bottom I2.
A vertically extending shaft I3 is journaled in the top H, as indicated at I4, and in the bottom l2, as indicated at I5, and, adjacent the upper end of the shaft I3, the same is provided with a gear l6 which is positioned in a recess |1 formed in the cover Extending horizontally into the cover I I through an outer recess l8 and an inner recess I9 and finally into the recess I1 is a rod provided with a rack 2| upon the inner portion thereof. A compression spring 22 is within the recess I9 and surrounds the rod 20 which is provided with a collar 23 against which the spring 22 is adapted to bear. The rack 2| is enmeshed with the gear I6. Approximately midway upon the inner Wall of the container In there is prO f vi-ded an inwardly extending annular lip 24 upon which rests a substantially conical shelf 25 which is provided with a plurality of openings 26 in the lower end thereof. Aihxed to the shaft I3 is a pair of outwardly extending stirrer blades 21. The stirrer blades 21 are positioned within the shelf 25 and the lower ends of the blades 21 are in close proximity thereto.
In the bottom I2 there is provided a passageway 29 which extends from a point centrally in the bottom of the member I2 and thence angularly upwardly to a bay 30 which is adapted to be closed by a follower door 3| which is connected by means of a flat spring 32 in turn connected by a rivet 33 or the like to the wall of the container II]. The spring 32 is of a nature to normally urge the door 3I in an upward direction. Each side of the door 3| is provided with a guide member 34 whose upper surface extends downwardly away from the door 3| and the upper face of the bottom member I2 is provided with a pair of recesses 35 which are adapted to receive the guide members 34 when the door 3| is in lowered posiion.
Aihxed to the shaft |3 adjacent its lower end is a pair of scraper blades 36 each of which is provided with an outwardly extending arm 31 and the lower sides of the blade 36 are in close proximity to the upper side of the member l2.
In operation, it will be apparent that when the rod 20 is pressed inwardly by the fingers of the user of the device, that the rack 3|, being engaged with the gear 16, will act to revolve the shaft [3 against the action of the spring 22 and that when the pressure thereby applied is released the spring 22 acting against the shoulder 23 will return the rod 20 to its normal outward position as viewed in Figure 1 and thereby rotate the shaft IS in the opposite direction. Thus it will be seen that one pressing of the rod 20 and the release thereof will act to oscillate the shaft l3 and the blades 21 and 36. When this occurs, it will be understood that mustard having previously been placed in the container in will be agitated by the blades 2! and a certain portion thereof will fall by gravity through the openings 26. When this occurs the blades 36 and the arms 31 will further stir the mustard con tained in the container I below the shelf 25 and that as the. blades 36 are oscillated the lower ends thereof will come into contact with the angular faces of the guide members 34 to thereby force the door 3| downwardly into the bay 30 to. thus forcibly eject through the passageway 29 any mustard which may have been entrapped therein through previous cycles of operation.
While but one form of the invention has been shown and described herein, it will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that many minor modifications may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
What is claimed is:
1. A device of the character described comprising a cylindrical container, a top for said container, a bottom for said container having a dispensing opening therein, a vertical shaft centrally disposed in said container and journaled in said top and bottom, agitator blades affixed to said shaft, a perforated shelf mounted upon the inner walls of said container immediately below the agitator blades, scraper blades affixed to the shaft immediately above said bottom, means operable by said scraper blades for forcing portions of the contents of said container through said dispensing opening, and means for oscillating said agitator blades and said scraper blades, said means for forcing portions of the contents from said container including a bay formed in said bottom at the upper end of said opening, a door for said bay, a spring for normally holding said door open, and guide members at each side of said door engageable beneath said scraper blades whereby to force said door into said bay.
2. A device of the character described comprising a cylindrical container, a top for said container, a bottom for said container having a dispensing opening therein, a vertical shaft centrally disposed in said container and journaled in said top and bottom, agitator blades afiixed to said shaft, a perforated shelf mounted upon the inner walls of said container immediately below the agitator blades, scraper blades affixed to the shaft immediately above said bottom, means operable by said scraper blades for forcing portions of the contents of said container through said dispensing opening, and means for oscillating said agitator blades and said scraper blades, said means including a gear affixed to said shaft within said top, a horizontal rod extending through one side of said top and having a rack formed on its inner portion and engaged with said gear, and a spring in said top for normally forcing said rod outwardly of said top,'
