ABSTRACT:
A dispenser for storing and dispensing small items is provided. The dispenser includes a base container having an a hollow space for storing items to be dispensed, a cover sized to fit over the opening of the base container, and a wheel rotationally mounted under the cover which has a shaft and at least three fins radially extending from the shaft and spaced from each other around the shaft. The wheel is mounted under the cover such that the fins of the wheel can rotate under the cover and carry an item stored within the base container to a port in the cover. The rotating fins on the wheel are aligned so as to contact and pass over the raised boss on an inside surface of the cover each time the wheel is rotated 360 degrees. An actuator is also provided for manually rotating the wheel under the cover, which actuator is accessible from outside of the dispenser. Both the cover and the fins of the wheel are made of plastic.
