Abstract

A tilting dispenser for the measured release of a free-flowing solid. The dispenser comprises an enclosed chamber housing including an inlet opening, discharge outlet and a baffle located between the opening and the outlet. The baffle restricts the flow of the solid material when the dispenser is tilted in certain positions. Also, a coupling is provided for attachment to the outlet opening of the particular storage container to which it is to be fitted.
