(under subclass 196.2) Hand manipulable shakers in which the inertia-operable member does not have enlarged portions on both sides of the dispensing outlet but is loosely confined in a guide or housing adjacent the outlet so that it is freely movable toward or away from the outlet either to loosen or shift the material by impact thereon or on the container or to open and close the outlet, or both.
(1) Note. This subclass includes balls inertia elements movable adjacent the dispensing outlet. See Class 241, Solid Material Comminution or Disintegration, subclasses 86+, for comminuting devices which have a stationary comminuting surface with openings which cooperate with a rotary comminuting element.

241, Solid Material Comminution or Disintegration, 86+, see (1) Note, and subclass 168, for hand supported comminutors for condiments in which the movable element is confined only by the walls of the supply container whereby lumps may be crushed between the movable element and the walls.
