ABSTRACT:
A dispenser for wrapped packages each containing an article and having an edge. The dispenser includes a housing defining a package receiving chamber, the housing including (i) a wall with an outer surface and an inner surface, (ii) a first end longitudinally spaced from a second end and (iii) a first opening defined at the second end for removal of the packages. A biasing member is secured to the housing and positioned within the package receiving chamber. The biasing member is adapted to urge the packages in a first longitudinal direction toward the second end. An aligning member is secured to the housing and positioned adjacent the first opening, and a cutting member having a cutting edge is secured to the housing. The biasing member urges the packages toward the first opening so that a package can be pulled through the first opening while the aligning member positions the article contained within the wrapped package away from the cutting member so that the wrapped package can be cut open by the cutting member edge without the cutting edge contacting the article for removal of the article from the cut-open wrapped package.
