ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to an apparatus for dispensing granular material from a storage box container. The device includes a housing, having substantially vertical side walls and a receiving base, the receiving base having three planar surfaces all of which are located substantially within the vertical side walls and at right angles to the vertical side walls being located so as to retain a storage box container at an adequate angle to permit gravity flow of granular material. The apparatus also contains a main rail connected to the underside of the mentioned housing, the main rail having sliding structure capable of receiving a main slide so as to permit forward and reverse movement of the main slide within said main rail, the mail rail also having an opening therein coinciding with the dispensing opening of the housing and having a recess therein around its opening for receiving a gasket, with the gasket being fixedly located within the recess. Also included is a main slide located so as to permit the flow of granular material out of the apparatus by gravity flow when located in a first position and to fully stop gravity flow of granular material when located in a second position, the main slide also having structure for attaching a receiving device under the main slide opening so that the receiving device may be removably attached thereto and may receive granular material flowing out of the apparatus.
