A wet wipe dispenser is provided that includes a support having an open area adapted to be juxtaposed with the cover portion of a container of wet wipes in an inverted orientation, and a base portion supporting the support above a surface on which the base portion is placed. In one embodiment the wet wipes dispenser includes a lower support and an upper support connected by means of a hinge. A wipes package is inserted between the upper and lower supports in juxtaposition with a slot within the lower support. The package has an inverted orientation within the slot such that wipes are downwardly dispensed, which allows for removal, and preferably also heating of the wipes, without a high rate of moisture loss occurring from the package. The downward force of the upper support can compress the package as wipes are sequentially dispensed.
A holder for a wet wipe dispenser comprising a support member having an open area whereby the top surface of a container can be juxtaposed with said support member with a raised portion of the container maintained within said open area, and a base portion supporting said support member at a predetermined positive angle with respect to a selected surface on which said base portion is mounted, whereby said support member is disposed at said predetermined positive angle with respect to said selected surface and faces generally in a downward direction when said base portion is mounted on said selected surface and said wet wipes can be individually removed from the container through said open area of said support member and each of said wet wipes is maintained in a moist condition.
A dispensing system for wet wipes comprising a container including a stacked plurality of wet wipes and having a top surface including a raised area containing a dispensing opening for individual removal of said wet wipes from said container, a support member having an open area whereby said top surface of said container can be juxtaposed with said support member with said raised portion maintained within said open area, and a base portion supporting said support member at a predetermined positive angle with respect to a selected surface on which said base portion is mounted, whereby said support member is disposed at said predetermined positive angle with respect to said selected surface and faces generally in a downward direction and said wet wipes can be individually removed in a generally horizontal or downward direction when said base portion is mounted on said selected surface from said container through said open area of said support member and each of said wet wipes is maintained in a moist condition.
A holder for a wet wipe dispenser comprising a support member having an open area whereby the top surface of a container can be juxtaposed with said support member with a raised portion of the container maintained within said open area, a base portion supporting said support member with respect to a selected surface on which said base portion is mounted, and pressure means acting on the bottom surface of the container for urging said wet wipes towards the dispensing opening of the container, whereby as said wet wipes are individually removed from the container the container reduces in size.
A dispensing system for wet wipes comprising a container including a stacked plurality of wet wipes and having a bottom surface and a top surface whereby a raised area containing a dispensing opening for individual removal of said wet wipes from said container, support means having an open area whereby said top surface of said container can be juxtaposed with said support means with said raised portion mounted within said open area, a base portion supporting said support means with respect to a selected surface on which said base portion is mounted, and pressure means acting on said bottom surface of said container for urging said wet wipes towards said dispensing opening, whereby as said wet wipes are individually removed from said container said container reduces in size.
A holder for a wet wipe dispenser containing wet wipes stacked within a container having a top surface and a dispensing opening for individual removal of said wet wipes, said dispenser comprising a first member facing generally downwardly and including an open area, a second member above said first member whereby the container can be disposed between said first member and said second member with the dispensing opening in the container juxtaposed with said open area of said first member, and a hinge member interconnecting said first member with said second member for exerting pressure on the container disposed between said first member and said second member, whereby said wet wipes can be individually removed in a generally downward direction from the container through said open area of said first member and moisture within the container is caused to flow towards said open area to moisten each of said individually removed wet wipes.
A dispensing system for wet wipes comprising a container including a stacked plurality of wet wipes including a top portion having a dispensing opening for individual removal of said wet wipes from said container, and a dispenser comprising a first member facing generally downwardly including an open area, said container disposed on said first member with said top portion of said container in contact with said first member and said dispensing opening juxtaposed with said open area of said first member, a second member disposed above said first member, with said container disposed between said first member and said second member, and a hinge member interconnecting said first member with said second member for exerting pressure on said container, whereby said wet wipes can be removed in a generally downward direction through said open area of said first member and moisture within said container is caused to flow towards said open area to moisten each of said individually removed wet wipes.
A holder for a wet wipe dispenser comprising a support member having an open area whereby the top surface of a container can be juxtaposed with said support member with a raised portion of the container maintained within said open area, and a base portion supporting said support member at a predetermined angle with respect to a substantially vertical surface on which said base portion is mounted, whereby said support member faces generally horizontally or in a downward direction when said base portion is mounted on said substantially vertical surface and said wet wipes can be individually removed from the container through said open area of said support member and each of said wet wipes is maintained in a moist condition.
