ABSTRACT:
A measuring/dispensing cap is adapted for attachment to an open, upper end of a conventional container. The cap includes a top and a peripheral skirt extending downwardly from the top, and a partition separates the peripheral skirt into upper and lower sections, the upper section constituting a measuring chamber defined by the top, the upper section of the skirt and the partition. At least one of the top and upper section of the peripheral skirt is provided with volume indicators. The partition is formed with a weir aperture on one side of a diametrical centerline extending across the partition, the aperture defined in part by a weir edge extending parallel to and spaced from the centerline. At least one dispensing door is secured to the top by an integral hinge having an axis parallel to the centerline and the weir edge, such that a portion of the door opposite the hinge lies on the other side of the diametrical centerline. This arrangement allows measured amounts of container contents to be dispensed from the measuring chamber without concern that additional amounts will be transferred from the container into the chamber.
