  • Patent number: 5052592
    Abstract: A dispenser for pasty compositions having a housing which contains a piston which can be displaced only in the emptying direction, the housing having an external handle to actuate a pump wall, which wall can be pushed in the direction of the piston in order to dispense the contents from an outlet opening in a top cover of the housing, the cover being connected to the pump wall by a small tube, and the pump wall having a tube channel formed thereon. A plug is formed on the tube channel at its end, the plug extending into a cover-side outlet opening and closing the outlet opening form below.

  • Patent number: 5018644
    Abstract: A dispenser for the dispensing of individual tablets has a housing (1), a slide (3) displaceable with limited stroke, a tablet storage chamber with adjoining delivery chute (7), and front end closure surfaces and profiled flanks being developed, in part, fixed on the housing and, in part, on the slide (3). A moveable flank forms a separation chamber (A) and in the flank fixed on the housing has a separation finger (F) associated with the separation chamber. To obtain a structurally simple dispenser with optimal functioning and gentle treatment of the tablets, the separation finger (F) is formed by a bottom vertex (22) of a first oblique surface (I) which commences on top opposite an upper closure (23) of the separation chamber (A). A second oblique surface (II) is developed on the moveable flank (d), which surface, commencing at the upper closure (23) of the separation chamber (A), extends in upward direction, continuously increasing the cross-section of the delivery chute.

  • Patent number: 4991748
    Abstract: A device for dispensing grainy media, in particular pellets, from a storage space in a housing. The housing has a dispensing opening near the bottom thereof and can be closed by a hand-operated actuator. The actuator has a dosing chamber the internal end of which is closed in the dispensing position of the actuator relative to the storage space by a partition wall and whose dispensing end is aligned with the dispensing opening in the dispensing position. The size of the dosing chamber is substantially greater than the diameter of the pellets. The dosing chamber has a cover which adjacent the storage area forms an auxiliary dosing chamber. The auxiliary dosing chamber has a depth which is approximately equal to the diameter of a pellet and has upper flanks which converge toward one another and end in an upwarded direction notch, wherein the notch is narrower than the diameter of a pellet.

  • Patent number: 4946076
    Abstract: A dispenser for pasty compositions, having a housing within which a piston displaceable in only the direction of emptying is arranged. An actuator enables a headpiece to act on a restorable wall which can be pressed in the direction towards the piston, the headpiece having a dispenser outlet opening. The wall forms an outlet tube the opening of which is coordinated to the outlet opening, and on which opening a stopper is formed which closes the outlet opening. The outlet opening is formed in the front side actuator and the actuator can act on the wall by means of the lever transmission.

  • Patent number: 4767023
    Abstract: A dispenser for tablets is disclosed which protects against inadvertent dispensing, e.g., by children. The dispenser includes a housing forming a tablet storage compartment, a movable slide and an operating key for the slide mounted adjacent a wall of the housing. A detent blocks movement of the slide toward a discharge position. The detent is mounted on the housing remote from the operating key. The slide is moved by simultaneous movement of the detent and operating key.

  • Patent number: 4724984
    Abstract: A device for dispensing granular media or tablets in portions from a supply space therein is disclosed. The device comprises a casing having an outlet sealable by a normally closed spring-loaded tappet. The device also includes an actuating system located within a recess in the outer walls of the casing. The tappet emerges from an internal wall within the casing. The wall forms an internal shaft for supporting the tappet and spaces the tappet from the outer walls of the casing. The internal wall also forms a space between an outer walls and a supply space which is open towards the recess and allows for easy formation of the casing. The supply space has a lower portion from which there extends a duct which forms the outlet for the device. The tappet has an opening therethrough at a lower end thereof capable of being moved in front of the duct when in a dispensing position. The supply space is then sealed by an insert located within the lower portion of the supply space.
