ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for dispensing closure tags, includes a support structure on which is mounted a channel member defining first and second channels through which to feed a strip of closure tags. The forward end of the second channel is disposed slightly ahead of the forward end of the first channel to enable placement of a bag into the first tag while a substantial portion of the lower edge of the first tag is still disposed within the second channel. A guide member attached to the channel member defines a surface disposed generally ahead of and facing the second channel that includes a first portion extending from a first position that is generally directly ahead of the forward end of the second channel a distance slightly less than the tag width to a second position that is disposed sideways from the longitudinal axis of the second channel. As the first tag is pulled from the channel member, it is guided sideways by the surface to thereby bend the tag sideways slightly before it is pulled completely from the second channel so that the first tag tends to fold where it is attached to the forward edge of the adjacent tag when the first tag is pulled completely from the second channel. A window may be provided in the channel member to provide access to the tags, and a spring finger to engage the tags and thereby inhibit rearward movement.
