Abstract
A dispenser with self-closing cap allows opening of said cap, dispensing of contents from said dispenser and closing of said cap using only one hand. In the first embodiment, said dispenser comprises a cap, tube, base and elastic cord internally disposed between said cap and said base. In a second embodiment said dispenser incorporates a D-ring attachment into the dispenser of the first embodiment. Multiple dispensers of the first embodiment can be transported and stored on one's person in a caddy with integral matching boreholes to receive said dispensers. Multiple dispensers of the second embodiment can be grouped on a split ring much as keys on a keyring. In a third embodiment the cap of said dispenser incorporates an O-ring which guards the contents of said container against moisture or allows the storage and dispensing of gels, creams or other viscous fluids. Said dispenser finds application in diverse areas; for example, in fly fishing for the dispensing of split shot; in the work shop for dispensing of small screws, washers, and related hardware; in the arts and craft field for the dispensing of beads, and in the medical field for the dispensing of pills.
