ABSTRACT:
A device for dispensing an exact, selected quantity of loose dry material, with this device comprising a multi-compartmented member rotatable about a substantially vertically-disposed axis toward and away from a reference location. The compartments of this member are of a specific, uniform configuration and spaced symmetrically about the substantially vertical axis. The multi-compartmented member is disposed between upper and lower generally planar partitions, with an aperture of approximately the same configuration as the compartments of the rotatable member located in each of the partitions. Importantly, one aperture is located in an offset relationship with respect to the other. Dry material to be dispensed is located above the upper partition, with such dry material dropping under the influence of gravity through its aperture into one or more of the compartments of the member as this member is rotated about its axis away from the reference location. As a result of this, one or more of the compartments of the member become filled with dry material, with the number of compartments filled being determined by the extent of rotation of the member away from the reference location. The material in the compartments thereafter drops downward through the aperture in the lower partition during rotation of the member back to the reference location. This novel measuring and dispensing device can be utilized as an integral part of a canister in which dry material is stored.
