Abstract
An apparatus for dispensing material into containers as they are advanced by a conveyor. The dispensing apparatus includes a nozzle having a product outlet at its lower end, a crank connected to the nozzle for moving the nozzle in an upright closed loop course, a dispenser control mounted for oscillation about a swing axis above the crank axis, and mechanism connecting the nozzle to the dispenser control for relative sliding movement so that the nozzle oscillates about the swing axis and also reciprocates relative to the dispenser control as the nozzle is moved in its closed loop course. Valve mechanism on the nozzle is operated between its open and closed positions in response to reciprocation of the nozzle toward and away from the dispenser outlet.
