Abstract
The present invention relates to product dispensers, and in particular dispensers for products in the form of strips. The product dispenser includes a container having a lid that may be pivotally attached to a base. According to an embodiment, the assembly includes a cartridge housing and a dispensing cartridge. The dispensing cartridge is configured to house a stack of strips. A guide is biased by a spring to push a presser bar against the bottom portion of the stack of the strips toward the dispensing end of the assembly. When a strip is to be dispensed, a slider is moved from a first position to a second position, causing a slider arm to contact and assist in rotating a strip toward a dispensing opening. At least a corner of the rotated strip may protrude through the dispensing opening so that a user may remove the strip from the assembly.
