Overcap device to hold and dispense ornamental particles

Abstract

An overcap device for storing and dispensing ornamental particles. The overcap device includes a closure cap for covering a recessed area used for the storage of the ornamental particles where the closure cap has an annular flange to frictionally engage the inner surface of the recessed storage area. The overcap device further includes a recessed area on the underside to removably fit on the top of a vial closure cap, where such recessed area includes flat ribs of a varying number to accept vial closure caps of inconsistent tolerances.

1 . An overcap container assembly comprising: 
 (a) a cylindrical interior container having an open top whereby desired particle contents can be stored,    (b) a closure cap removably retained on the interior container for closing the open top thereof,    (c) an intermittent annular peripheral flange downwardly depending from said closure cap dimensioned to frictionally receive and partially extend around said cylindrical interior container, and    (d) a coaxially disposed handle means containing said cylindrical interior enabling the same to be manipulated for the removal of the particle contents.    
   
   
       2 . An overcap container assembly as in  claim 1 , where said handle means has a cylindrical socket adapted to frictionally receive a screw cap of a vial.  
   
   
       3 . An overcap container assembly as in  claim 2  where said cylindrical socket contains a plurality of axially aligned ribs whereby a screw cap of varying tolerances may be frictionally received.
