ABSTRACT:
A ball dispenser for dispensing balls includes a first elongated open-ended tube for stacking the balls, a finger-operable dispenser permitting positioning, touch and inspection of a lowermost ball, and release of the lowermost ball by the finger of one hand of the user, so as to leave the other hand free. The finger-operable dispenser mechanism includes a holder mounted near one end of the first tube, a two-position spring-loaded lever pivotably mounted on the holder, and having a ball support portion normally supporting the lowermost ball, a finger-operable portion connected to the ball support portion, and a transient ball resting portion opposite the ball support portion, and which protrudes into the first tube interior through a slot formed in the tube. The ball support portion is normally urged by the spring-loaded lever to abut the lowermost ball, when the spring-loaded lever is in a rest position, but permits release of the lowermost ball upon actuation of the finger-operable portion, the transient ball resting portion temporarily blocking release of a ball above the lowermost ball, when the spring-loaded lever is in an actuated position, both resumes an inoperative position when the finger-operable portion reverts to the rest position, whereby the ball previously positioned above the now released, and erstwhile lowermost ball becomes the new lowermost ball, due to the action of gravity.
