ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for dispensing cylindrical packages, such as tampons, having a carrousel provided with a magazine for storage of a reserve supply of tampons and a plurality of open-ended hollow dispensing compartments adapted to each hold a single article to be dispensed. The carrousel is mounted for rotation within a housing which housing is provided with a manually operable dispenser capable of discharging by gravity the contents of a compartment aligned with the dispenser. A knob is attached to a shaft formed at the bottom of the carrousel for rotating the carrousel about its axis of rotation and detents facilitate aligning the dispensing compartments with the dispenser. The housing is provided with a cover so that the interior of the dispensing apparatus is concealed from view when the cover is in place. A receptacle for powder, for example, with a lid is incorporated in the cover.
