Abstract
The dosing dispenser for essentially spherical items contained in a container is characterized in that it comprises a passage channel whose inner cross-section is larger than the items, and an exit opening which in the relaxed state of the dosing dispenser has an elongated shape whose width is smaller and whose length is larger than the items. The dosing dispenser consists of a soft elastic plastic material and can be deformed by the application of pressure such that the exit opening gets larger than the items. The dosing dispenser is of a simple construction and can be produced at low costs.
Claims12
A dosing dispenser for essentially spherical items contained in a container, the dosing dispenser (1) consisting of a soft elastic plastic material and comprising:
- an operating section (4),
- a tubular section (11) having a passage channel whose inner cross-section is larger than the items,
- and an exit opening (6) which in a relaxed state of the soft elastic dosing dispenser (1) has an elongated shape whose width is smaller and whose length is larger than the items, the dosing dispenser being deformable by the application of pressure such that the exit opening gets larger than the items, and wherein
- the tubular section (11) having the passage channel is attached at a distance from the exit opening (6) to an inner wall of the operating section (4) of the dosing dispenser (1),
- two retaining cams (12) are on the end of the tubular section (11) and oriented towards the exit opening (6), and
- the tubular section (11) is cut open in an axial direction of the tubular section, so that the tubular section comprises at least two circumferential sections that are movable relative to each other.
