ABSTRACT:
An improved dispenser preferably having seven compartments that are each identified to correspond to a day of the week. The dispenser compartments are formed by partitions arranged within a flat cylindrical housing, the partitions extending outwardly as spokes from a center area thereof, the housing having at least one groove or track formed around a top lip area thereof for accommodating the edge of at least one circular disk that travels therein, said disk either accommodating another disk in an appropriate recess formed therein, or another disk is arranged to travel in a separate groove or track formed also in the housing top lip area, said disks being sandwiched together both having openings formed therethrough that, when aligned, form a passage to allow pills or the like to pass from within the dispenser, the invention including a safety locking arrangement for maintaining the disks together prohibiting alignment of said openings. A number of embodiments of safety locking arrangements for maintaining the disks together are taught by the present invention each embodiment involving a lock that is released by a manual effort that would not be apparent to a child, whereafter the disks can be rotated independently to align their opening to form a passage therethrough.
