ABSTRACT:
Solid or liquid products, such as deodorants are advanced for use and retracted for storage in a dispenser which includes a container, a product supporting cup slidably-mounted within the container, and a delivery mechanism to move the cup upwardly and downwardly within the container. The delivery mechanism which is integrally-formed from plastic with the cup includes a first arm and a second arm each of which have first and second ends connected by an intermediate hinge. The first ends of the first and second arms are connected to the cup with cup hinges. The first and second arms of the delivery mechanism are bent at their intermediate and cup hinges so that the first and second arms form a scissor arrangement with the first ends of the first and second arms crossing and the second ends of the first and second arms crossing. After the arms of the delivery mechanism are positioned in this scissor arrangement, the cup containing a product and the delivery mechanism are inserted into the container. The container is provided with openings through which the user can insert his fingers to manually squeeze the second ends of the first and second arms together so that the cup and product are advanced upwardly. After the product has been used, the cup and product may be retracted by releasing the squeezing pressure applied to the second ends of the first and second arms so that the second ends move apart.
