1 Claim. Cl. 20656) This invention relates to a dispensing device for dispensing small individually-packaged articles which are adapted to be torn off and thus severed from a continuous strip or roll of such packages.
More particularly, it relates to a dispensing apparatus for dispensing individually-packaged tablets, capsules or pills which, for purposes of sanitation and preservation, are encased in a wrapping material which is formed in a long continuous strip, each such strip being provided with partially perforated or scored portions to assist in tearing off the individually-packaged tablets, capsules or pills.
My new and improved continuous strip dispenser may be constructed of cardboard or other light paper-like material, and it provides for the eifective dispensing of such articles as analgesic tablets, medicinal capsules, or vitamin pills from the interior thereof, wherein the long continuous strip of individually-packaged tablets, capsules or pills is housed as a roll, or in the form of multiple folds.
In the dispensing of articles, such as analgesic tablets,
capsules or pills, it is customary to wrap the tablets, pills or capsules in a continuous strip of pliable wrapping material, preferably in a transparent or translucent map ping material such as cellophane. The material is sealed around the individual pills, tablets or capsules, thereby providing a plurality of small envelopes containing one, two, or more of the medicament units. The continuous strip or web of individually-packaged elements thus resulting is partially perforated or scored at fixed intervals, thereby permitting the severance of each individuallypackaged medicament unit from the remainder of the web simply by tearing it ofl? from the continuous strip.
In dispensing individually-packaged tablets, capsulesor pills from such a continuous strip of wrapping material, scored or perforated to permit tearing oif the individually-packaged units, it is usual to place the continuous strip in a dispensing container so that it is stored in a completely sanitary condition until it is desired to sever one of the packaged units. Previously these dispensing containers have been relatively heavy and expensive devices made out of metal. It is a primary object of my invention to provide a dispensing container which is formed of ordinary paperboard or cardboard, with all the advantages of such a light and inexpensive material as compared with more expensive and cumbersome containers. As is well known in the cardboard container industry, such dispensing containers may be shipped flat, and then assembled by folding into the proper shape at the point of use.
Dispensing devices of the type now available for dispensing individually-wrapped tablets, capsules or pills in the form of a continuous strip have sometimes included some resilient means for forcing the web of packaged elements against the top of the dispensing container in order to permit ready severance of each individuallypackaged unit by tearing along a perforated or scored line. While a resilient means of this type is highly deatent O ice sirable, and permits the person tearing off the individually-packaged medicament unit to press the web thereagainst during the tearing-off operation, some of the dispensing devices which are now available have utilized for this purpose a separate metallic resilient element. While they are efiective, such resilient elements made of metal are expensive, add unnecessary and undesirable weight to the dispenser, and introduce an additional complexity in what should be a relatively simple dispenser.
I have avoided the use of such separate metallic spring-like means as a part of the continuous strip dispensing device by providing a separate cardboard element which, when suitably folded, assembled, and placed within the cardboard container, provides an inexpensive and effective resilient means for holding the continuous strip of packaged medicament against the underside of the upper cover or flap of the container during the severing operation.
Accordingly, it is another object of my invention to provide a resilient dispensing lip element which is formed of cardboard or some other paper-like material, which dispensing lip element serves as a support for the web of packaged medicament as it emerges from the dispensing container, at the same time resiliently urging this web against the interior upper surface of the container to permit easy tearing off of each individual package of analgesic tablets, vitamin pills, capsules, or other medicament which is being dispensed.
Other objects and features of the invention will be apparent from the ensuing description of a preferred form of my improved continuous strip dispensing apparatus.
My invention may be best understood in connection with the annexed drawing, wherein:
Fig. l is a perspective view of the completely assembled dispenser, a portion of the side thereof being removed for clearness in illustration. This view shows the continuous strip of individually-wrapped tablets, pills, or capsules positioned within the dispenser in the form of a roll;
Fig. 2 shows the upper portion of the dispenser of Fig. l, with the upper flaps folded back to show the U- shaped element whose terminal outer edge portion provides the resilient dispensing lip over which the continuous strip passes during the dispensing operationj Fig. 3 is a partial view wherein one individually- Wrapped package or envelope containing the medicament has emerged from the dispenser, preparatory to its being torn off from the rest of the continuous strip or web along the perforated or scored tear line;
Fig. 4 is a partial view similar to Fig. 3 showing the operation of tearing off one individually-packaged en velope of medicament from the rest of the continuous strip;
Fig. 5 is a partial view similar to Fig. 4, illustrating the operation of moving forward an additional individually-packaged dosage unit, which will subsequently be severed from the remainder of the continuous strip as shown in Fig. 4;
Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view, certain elements being shown in elevation, taken along the line 66 of Fig. 3. In this view, however, the continuous strip of pills, tablets, or capsules wrapped in transparent wrapping material such as cellophane is shown positioned within the dispenser in the form of multiple folds;
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the flat cardboard blank which is cut and folded to provide the inner container insert element which goes inside of the dispensing carton and provides the U-shaped element whose terminal outer edge portion provides the resilient dispensing lip;
Fig. 8 is a view illustrating the assembly of the card- 3 board. box which provides. the: container. element. of. the dispensing unit shown in Figs,, 1 and 2;
Fig. 9 is a view showing the completely folded and assembled: cardboard blank of; Big. 7; folded: to. pro: vide.the inner. container. or. inserti element supplyingthe resilient dispensing lip, which; elementis adapted; tobe inserted within the. dispensing. carton of Fig. 8;.

Referring.morespecificallytcxFigs; l and 2, the pills or capsulesv 10! are spaced betweentwo. layers of transparentmaterial, which may becel lophane, waxed paper, or. other.- similar. cellulosicmaterial; wherein they are sealed in small pockets,- thereby providing thecontinuous; strip 12 frornwhich-the tablets onpil-ls are dispensed; As shown, a--unit-dose-.1t}of the medicament, such as two tablets of-amana-lgesic, may be brought together and individually packaged, the partially perforated orscored tearli-nes 1 3 X betweenthe individual 1 packages permitting the severing of each individually-packaged dosage unit from the remainder of the continuous web.
Thecontainer of the dispensing cartonfrom which the pills, tablets or capsules are dispensed may-be formedof a cardboardblank 15 of--usual type, this cardboard blank including side panels 16, 17 18-and-19;-top panel 21; and bottom panel 22. Theblank isreadily assembledin carton orbox-like form haying elongated sides and narrow front and-rear walls by means ofthe; glued flap 24; andfold-overflaps 26, 2'7; 28; 29'; 30-and 31. As shown in Fig. 4, for example, an opening-33 -is provided in the top panel'-21-'adjacent-the frontwall of the-containerfor. a persons thumb, so that the-continuous strip QfJ-packagedmedicament may be pressed against the resilient dispensing lip 59 to permit tearing often in. dividually-packaged dose, which operation isillustrated in Figs. 3 to 5.
