DISPENSER FOR DISPENSING MATERIAL INTO A CONTAINER

摘要

The present disclosure is directed at a dispenser for dispensing material into a container. The dispenser includes a base and a rotatable portion that is rotatable relative to the base along an axis of rotation. The base can be coupled to the container, and includes a storage compartment that has a cover that retains the material in the storage compartment when closed and that is positioned to release the material into the container when opened and when the base is coupled to the container. The rotatable portion includes a cover displacer that is inserted into the storage compartment and that is rotatable from a storage position in which the cover displacer and the cover are positioned such that the cover is closed, to a dispensing position in which the cover displacer has displaced the cover such that the cover is opened. The cover is oblique relative to the axis of rotation. Alternatively, the base includes a storage compartment having a dispensing aperture positioned such that the material stored in the storage compartment falls into the container when the dispensing aperture is uncovered. The rotatable portion includes a cover that rotates in response to rotation of the rotatable portion from being completely closed over the dispensing aperture when the dispenser is in a storage position to leaving the dispensing aperture at least partially uncovered when the dispenser is in a dispensing position.
