Abstract
Description
The invention relates to a large snack dispenser for dogs, which differs from existing bulk dispensers in that it can hold and dispense treats of different sizes up to a diameter of 2 cm. The snack dispenser has the dimensions Height: 12.7 cm Width: 8 cm Depth: 4.3 cm and is made of food-grade plastic, making it stable, hygienic and easy to clean. The snack cartridge is inserted into a frame, which is connected to the frame by a spring. Three rails on each side of the frame and cartridge ensure smooth movement of the cartridge within the frame. The deeper the cartridge is pressed in, the larger the dispensing opening at the bottom of the dispenser becomes, thus dispensing more product. The design does without a lid. The bulk material is filled through the dispensing opening when the cartridge is pressed in. The design allows the snack dispenser to be portable, for example, by attaching a hand strap or shoulder strap to two holes in the upper part of the frame. The dispenser can be used at home or on the go. This new design for dispensing dog snacks avoids the crumbs and odors typical of conventional snack storage solutions, such as those made of fabric. The combination of a larger plastic format, variable dispensing and filling capacity, adaptability to different snack sizes, and portability with attachment options sets this solution apart from previously used snack storage options (such as textile belt pouches, etc.) and represents a true innovation.
