Dispenser having more than one output drive condition

A dispenser, comprising:

• a product housing configured to receive a product to be dispensed;
• a drive system comprising a primary motive power device and a secondary motive power device, the drive system configured to receive energy from an electrical energy supply;
• a dispensing apparatus disposed in operable communication with the drive system, the dispensing apparatus configured and disposed in operable communication with the product housing to dispense the product;
• wherein during a condition when the product is being dispensed the dispensing apparatus is subject to a dispensing resistance and the drive system provides an output to the dispensing apparatus to overcome the dispensing resistance, said output being characterized by a dispensing parameter,
• wherein the secondary motive power device is operably responsive to the dispensing parameter, such that the secondary motive power device operates in a first output drive condition in response to the dispensing resistance being below a threshold value, and operates in a second output drive condition in response to the dispensing resistance being above a threshold value.

A dispenser, comprising:

• a product housing configured to receive a product to be dispensed;
• a drive system comprising a primary motive power device, a secondary motive power device and a controller, the drive system configured to receive energy from an electrical energy supply;
• a dispensing apparatus disposed in operable communication with the drive system, the dispensing apparatus configured and disposed in operable communication with the product housing to dispense the product;
• wherein during a condition when the product is being dispensed the dispensing apparatus is subject to a dispensing resistance and the drive system provides an output to the dispensing apparatus to overcome the dispensing resistance, said output being characterized by a dispensing parameter,
• wherein the controller determines the dispensing resistance based on the dispensing parameter and responsively operates the secondary motive power device, such that the controller operates the secondary motive power device in a first output drive condition in response to the dispensing resistance being below a threshold value, and operates the secondary motive power device in a second output drive condition in response to the dispensing resistance being above a threshold value.
