  • Patent number: 5743434
    Abstract: A squeezing device for dispensing flowable contents from a compressible tube comprising two planar members hinged together transversely with an axle means. The lower member is a support plate for the tube and the upper member is a pressor plate being adapted to provide a variable width transverse gap at their hinged end which is dependent upon the inclination of that member and to slidingly engage and intermittently retain the collapsible tube while its contents are being expressed uniformly from the normally capped end. The transverse support axis for the hinged members can either be a dual prong element integral of the pressor member or it can be a separable rigid rod spanning the sidewalls of both members and capped externally at each longitudinal end to be retained in place.
