ABSTRACT:
A receptacle for dosifying granulated, pulverulent or liquid products includes a product containing receptacle and a hollow cover which houses a solid closure member normally spring urged to a closed position. By inverting the receptacle and imparting a shaking motion to it, the solid closure member moves away from its closed position against the tension of the spring to an open position thus permitting measured amounts of the product to be dispensed as continued opening and closing of the closure member occurs relative to the motion imparted to the receptacle by the user. The inner portion of the solid closure member is preferably provided with at least one annular recess which receives the product when the receptacle is inverted and aids in dispensing a given quantity thereof. The retraction of the solid closure member by the spring causes it to forcibly engage the adjacent edge of the hollow cover, thus breaking up any lumps of the product which may be present at the discharge opening.
