ABSTRACT:
A manual dispenser for granular materials includes a hopper operably connected to one end of an elongated tube for material flow communication. The other end of the tube is closed and a material exit opening is provided in the side of the tube near the bottom end. A freely movable closure is disposed to normally close flow communication between the hopper and the tube. A removable cap is provided for the tube. The forceful manual movement of the tube in a vertical plane to a sudden stop effects the movement of the closure to permit material flow communication between the hopper and the tube for a limited time interval after which the closure is returned to its original position by gravity. During such time interval, material from the hopper will flow by gravity into the tube for passage out of the exit opening to be deposited at any selected point or along a linear path by manipulation of the tube.
