Abstract (en)

[origin: CA1327033C] A tablet dispenser which has a sleeve and a magazine for holding the tablet stack, which magazine is guided in this sleeve and has an essentially U-shaped crosssection and a base connecting the limbs and, for filling purposes, can be pushed partially out of the sleeve against the force of a spring arranged between the base of the magazine and a cup-like slide which is displaceable in the magazine and in the sleeve and acts as a plate spring, the slide being guided in the magazine to prevent complete tilting in the said magazine and being provided with lateral projections, one of which passes through a slot arranged in the web of the magazine and engages a groove running in the longitudinal direction of the sleeve and the other projection engages a further longitudinal groove of the sleeve, which longitudinal grooves are at least partially closed at the push-out end of the sleeve and form stops for the projections of the slide. To avoid danger due to parts, such as, for example, the spring , jumping out, even during improper treatment of the tablet dispenser leading to at least partial destruction of the said dispenser, it is envisaged that the projection of the slide , which projection passes through the slot of the magazine , is provided with a hammer-head and, preferably, a pin stop which is arranged close to the base of the magazine , on the latter, engages between two coils of the spring .
