NAIL HOLDER

Abrégé anglais

PURPOSE Dispensing container for the controlled manual dispensing
of a large variety of nails, screws and other like fastners
through the front end of the bottom asjustable track by manual
pulling of either the right or left hand determined by positioning
of container on user chest opposing the pulling hand.

Revendications

THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION IN WHICH AN EXCLUSIVE
PROPERTY OR PRIVILEGE IS CLAIMED ARE DEFINED AS FOLLOWS:

1. "NAIL DISPENSER". Being a container like, with two openings one at
the top, for loading a variety of fasteners nails, screws, etc.(Fig.4)
and the other at the bottom (Fig.9), forming a length wise narrow
opening (Track)to allow the items in the container to protrude point
down the bottom, (Fig. 6 and 2). Allowing the fastners to slide to the
front opening (Fig.1). for easy pulling through the front oppening.

2, "NAIL DISPENSER" according to claim 1, characterized in that the
lower part of the walls of such container slant, inwards at an angle
between 30° to 45° (Fig. 3), terminating in a adjustable narrow
opening, which permits the bodies of various sized fasteners, to go
through the narrow opening (fig. 9 track) at the same time stopping
the head of such fastners being wider than the body from passing
through the track opening (Fig. 2).

3. "NAIL DISPENSER" according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that
the container is provided with two pair of openings (Fig, 5) for the
attachment of a adjustable shoulder strap ). Permitting the light
shaking of the container to unclog the items by this action, and
allowing the items to right themselves point down in the track opening
(Fig. 2).

4. "NAIL DISPENSER" according to claim 3, characterized in that the
container is provided with a small flexible metal tab (fig. 8)
attached to the front end of the container to restrict dispensing
until pulled through such opening with little effort.

5. "NAIL DISPENSER" according to claim 4, characterized in that the
dispenser can be adjusted for various thicknesses of fastener
bodies, by hand adjustmnet of two screws with a small spring between
the walls inserted over the screw (Schematic 2, Detail 3 ), this
arrangement provides outward pressure on the walls of the dispenser to

the maximum opening, the sides of the track oppening can be forced to
closed down the walls to a different sized opening, counter reacting
the action of the springs, and thus maintaining the desired track
opening at a constant size for the particular chosen fastener.
