20140284357 | EXPANDABLE GRAVITY-FEED BIN - A gravity-feed bin includes a generally hollow main bin that has a storage reservoir and an open end. A first generally hollow extension section is selectably coupled to the open end of the main bin. The first extension section is in communication with the reservoir, and the storage capacity of the reservoir is increased by the first extension section. In some embodiments a seal element is intermediate the open end of the main bin and the first extension section, the seal element providing a substantially air-tight seal between the main bin and the first extension section. A plurality of extension sections and seal elements may be selectably coupled together in a stacked arrangement upon the main bin to increase the storage capacity of the reservoir. | 09-25-2014 |

20110062190 | BULK PRODUCT DISPENSER HAVING A CONTAINER-ACTIVATED DISPENSING ACTUATOR RELEASE ASSEMBLY - A dispensing actuator locking assembly for a bulk inventory dispenser. The dispenser comprises a housing, a lockable dispensing actuator pivotally connected to the housing, and a gate connected to the dispensing actuator and adapted to pivot between a closed position and an open position when a receptacle is properly staged beneath the dispenser. When properly staged, a receptacle urges a locking member to disengage the dispensing actuator thereby unlocking it. When the dispensing actuator is in an unlocked condition stored inventory is selectively dispenses through an opening in the housing. The dispensing actuator cannot be accidentally actuated unless and until the locking assembly is purposefully disengaged by the user of the dispenser when a receptacle is in place to catch and store the dispensed inventory. | 03-17-2011 |
