  • Patent number: 5845816
    Abstract: A cylindrical container vertically multi-compartmented with circumferentially equally sectioned vertical partitions that are further divided along a horizontal plane providing fourteen compartments to store particulate spices. The first and second ends of the product chambers are closured with a double tier cover assembly sealing both ends with lids that are molded to a configuration that restrains spice cross-contamination. The recessed snap rim of the sealing lid receives a rotatable manually regulable dispensing disc, that is motivated by finger grips, to rotate in either direction, to position ports for replenishing and dispensing product to register over the desired spice compartment. This disc cover embodies dispensing ports comprising multiorifices perforated to dispense spices. Lock flaps, operational on living hinges, formulate closures on the top side of the dispensing disc when the container is not in use.
