A method for distribution of supports impregnated with antibiotics includes a step of positioning of a plurality of tubular containers, each one containing a plurality of supports impregnated with antibiotics and stacked, in a corresponding plurality of seats of a dispenser. Extraction of at least a first support from a first container is performed using an extractor, the step of extraction being performed in correspondence of an upper end of the first container and comprising a movement of the first support between a first position inside of the first container and a second position extracted from the first container, said first position and said second position lying substantially in correspondence of an upper surface of the dispenser. Collection of the first support from the second position is performed using a collector. Transportation of the first support towards a culture plate by the collector is performed.

The invention relates to a pill dispenser (1), which has a sleeve (2) and a magazine (3) guided in this sleeve (2) to hold a stack of pills. For filling purposes, the magazine can be partially pushed out of the sleeve (2) in the longitudinal direction (4) of the magazine against the force of a spring (5) and receives at its upper end a cap (6) in a pivotally adjustable manner, which cap (6) is pivotally adjustable against the force of a spring (7) from a rest position into a dispensing position and supports a decorative head (8). In order to create advantageous fastening conditions for the decorative head, it is proposed that the cap (6) has a transverse guide (9) onto which the at least two-part, in particular at least two-shell, decorative head (8) is pushed transversely to the longitudinal direction (4) of the magazine.

A dispenser assembly (2) for solid units (4) includes an outer sleeve (10) having an end (12) and a first sidewall (14) extending from the end of the outer sleeve, the first sidewall having a window (19) proximate to the end of the outer sleeve; and an inner) housing (50) inserted into the outer sleeve, the inner housing including an end (54) with an opening therein leading to a compartment configured for storing the solid units. The dispenser assembly (2) is configured to rotate between a CLOSED position corresponding to the window being blocked by a portion of the inner housing, and an OPEN position corresponding to the window not being blocked by the inner housing in order to allow at least one of the solid units to be dispensed through the window.

The present disclosure provides a body of a plurality of interconnected pet treats, and a dispenser for dispensing the treats to a pet. The body can comprise a mass of edible extruded, poured, or molded material, that is shaped so that individual treats can be broken or cut off. The treats can be interconnected by a portion of the edible extruded, poured, or molded material that is thinner in a certain area to facilitate the separation of the treats. The dispenser uses a housing, treat sleeve, and trigger sleeve so that a user can load the treats into the treat sleeve, and selectively eject individual treats semi-automatically.

A portable medicament case that includes a medicament provided in a package, and first and second housing members that are configured to form a medicament package receiving cavity when joined together. Each housing member including a mating member that is configured for engagement with the other housing member in order to join the first and second housing members together in a sealed configuration that prevents moisture or contaminants from entering into the cavity. Also, a magazine containing a plurality of medicament cases for administration of medicaments to a group of people, and a method of administering medications to mass casualties of multiple persons that are in need thereof. The medicaments are rapidly disintegratable and can include a dye that stains the person's mouth so that medical personnel can determine who has been treated with the medicament.

In order to create advantageous fastening conditions for the decorative head, it is proposed that the cap (6) has a transverse guide (9) onto which the at least two-part, in particular at least two-shell, decorative head (8) is pushed transversely to the longitudinal direction (4) of the magazine.

A temperature monitoring device provides an operator a visual indication of the temperature of a machine component reaching a predetermined threshold temperature. The device includes at least one region of thermochromic material which changes from an initial color to an activated color when the machine component reaches a threshold temperature.

A portable apparatus for dispensing food and beverages is provided. The apparatus comprises a food chamber to hold stacked food items in the form of patties, fritter, cakes or semi-solid content and a drink chamber to dispense liquid or semi-solid liquid. The apparatus comprises a lever connected to the food chamber that forces the food content to release from the apparatus. The lever can be in form of slider lever, rotatable lever, flushed lever, horizontal lever, push button, push button with motor. The apparatus further comprises a lock and slid mechanism for reducing spring tension and to reduce friction on food content. The apparatus can be disposable, non-disposable or reusable or in modular form.

A confectionary item dispenser include a dispenser housing having a dispenser housing opening, a reservoir within the dispenser housing having a reservoir chute aligned with the dispenser housing opening, and a dispenser shield disposed within the dispenser housing and movable so that a dispenser shield opening can align with the dispenser housing opening and the reservoir chute at a dispensing position to dispense a confectionary item. An indeterminate outcome actuation mechanism with an actuation mechanism input device causes the dispenser shield to move between the dispensing position and a non-dispensing position when the actuation mechanism input device is displaced such that the dispenser shield may be disposed in one of the dispensing position and the non-dispensing position when the actuation mechanism input device is displaced so that a confectionary item may or may not be dispensed each time.
