Abstract:
A condiment dispensing device is provided that, when activated by a user, may expel a condiment from a condiment cartridge secured within the condiment dispensing device. The condiment dispensing device includes a recess at its bottom portion in which a dampener member may be secured. When the dampener member is secured in the recess, the bottom portion of the dispensing device is flat, which results in the device being orientation within a holder in a consistent and predictable fashion. Because the dampener member may be made of a rubber or soft plastic, when the condiment dispensing device is placed in the holder, substantially less impact and noise are created than if the dispensing device were construed entirely made of metal.

Claim (Index 11):
A dispensing device comprising:\n a body member for holding a cartridge therein, the body member including a dampener member secured thereto; and an expulsion mechanism in contact with the cartridge so that when the expulsion mechanism is activated, pressure is applied by the expulsion mechanism within the cartridge.
