| 20150014344 | SHEET PRODUCT DISPENSER - A dispenser for dispensing a stack of napkins is of a gravity feed kind and includes a base upon which the dispenser is to stand and a dispensing opening at a bottom of a stack housing portion of the dispenser so that the napkins are fed to the dispensing opening along a slide member. The slide member defines a steep, planar upper surface for guiding the stack of napkins, and a less steep, curved lower sliding surface forming a turn in the slide toward the dispensing opening. The lower sliding surface is formed by a plurality of spaced runners separated by recesses. The stack is held by first and second compression members against a bottom part of the steep portion of the sliding surface to take the weight of the upper part of the stack from the part of the stack sliding on the lower curved surface. | 01-15-2015 |

Opposed ones of the sidewall members are identical pieces allowing them to be interchanged with one another during manufacture while still allowing the sidewall members to clip together to form the chute. The front member includes a transparent window to allow a depth of the stack to be viewed from the outside to check a product low condition. The front member includes locking tabs to lock it in a closed position relative to the chute. The tabs may be flexed through openings in the chute from the outside into a lock release position. The chute includes blocking members to prevent over inward deflection of the locking tabs. | 02-19-2015 |

| 20150289731 | Wet Tissue Supply Apparatus - Disclosed herein is a wet tissue supply apparatus including: a storage box containing dry tissues put on top of each other therein and having a first hole; an exit member having a second hole which is opposed to the first hole inside the storage box, the exit member enabling a user to draw out the dry tissues contained in the storage box through the first hole; a water container which is mounted above the exit member and the storage box and has a water outlet; an opening and closing member mounted at the water outlet of the water container and located between the first hole and the second hole to open and close the water outlet while being lifted; and a push member mounted on the exit member and located beneath the opening and closing member to lift the opening and closing member, wherein the dry tissue gets wet with the water of the water container while passing between the first hole and the second hole. | 10-15-2015 |
| 20150353266 | Dispensing Tissue Box - A tissue box that, in the preferred embodiment, includes an additional and integral box cover section which may be pivoted away from the tissue box, then engaged with the same in a way that permits support on a flat surface and where the tissue box becomes substantially inverted, allowing for the removal of tissues in a substantially downward direction. | 12-10-2015 |
| 20160051100 | SHEET PRODUCT DISPENSER - A dispenser is disclosed that includes a housing defining an interior volume for receiving a stack of sheet products, an actuator, a dispensing member, a roller, and a support structure for engaging a front face of the stack including opposed shelves for supporting opposed sides of the front face. The actuator is operable by a user to activate a dispensing member to dispense a desired number of sheet products. The actuator includes two or more user interfaces that a user can actuate to transmit to the dispensing member an amount of movement corresponding to different numbers of sheet products being dispensed depending upon which of the user interfaces is actuated. The roller is located between the opposed shelves and engages and grips on the front face of the stack. The actuator imparts a predetermined amount of rotation to the roller depending upon which of the user interface ledges is actuated, which causes the roller to separate one or more sheet products at the front face of the stack in a one-at-a-time fashion. | 02-25-2016 |
| 20160051330 | BOXED GLOVE DISPENSER - A boxed glove dispenser has a front and an opposite back, two spaced apart ends connecting the front and the back, a top connecting the front, back, and ends, and a bottom opposite the top. The bottom has a lesser depth than the top and connects to the front and the back using two rails. The rails provide two edges parallel to the length of the dispenser and elevate a box placed upon the rails slightly above the bottom. The bottom also has a grate centered in it. The grate has a transverse orientation to the length of the bottom. The grate operates as an opening into the dispenser, yet the opening limits a medical provider's access within the dispenser to no more than two fingers while promoting single glove retrieval from any glove box placed within the dispenser. | 02-25-2016 |
