ABSTRACT:
A dispenser for a material contained within a flexible tube includes a main body that has a longitudinally extending front surface for supporting the tube, an opposing rear surface, a pair of side walls that extend upwardly from the front surface and along the longitudinal extent thereof, and a gear rack extending adjacent to an inner surface of each of the side walls. Preferably, the side walls are spaced apart a sufficient distance to receive the tube and the gear racks therebetween. An elongate roller has a shaft that extends from each end of the roller and each shaft projects through a slot and one of the side walls. Each shaft further includes a gear positioned between the roller and one of the side walls and in alignment with one of the gear racks. Each gear is in meshing engagement with its corresponding gear rack. A knob is attached to an outer end of at least one shaft for rotating the roller and gears with respect to the gear racks for moving the roller along the longitudinal extent of the front surface. The roller is spaced a sufficient distance from the front surface of the main body to thereby press the tube between the roller and the front surface and to force the material in the tube toward the tube spout. A toothbrush holder is mounted to and extends rearwardly from the main body rear surface. A wall mount is attached to a recess located in a rear surface of the toothbrush holder for mounting the dispenser to a wall. A portion of the adaptor base is received in the mounting recess when positioning the dispenser on a horizontal surface.
