  • Patent number: 4153183
    Abstract: A funnel type container is mounted above a bar with its axis vertical. A stop member is mounted on a cross member in the container at the open top thereof and extends coaxially toward the bottom in spaced relation therewtih. A plurality of tubular members are telescopically slidably coupled to each other. One of the tubular members is slidable coupled to the open bottom of the container and extends therethrough whereby in extended position the tubular members extend a maximum distance from the container and direct ice cubes stored in the container to glasses on the bar. In a withdrawn position, the one of the tubular members extends into the container and abuts the stop member thereby blocking the bottom of the container and preventing ice cubes from leaving the container.
