DISPENSING RAZOR BLADE CARTRIDGES USED WITH A HANDLE

摘要

A cartridge dispenser (10) for razor blade cartridges (12) including latches (22) that retain cartridges in predetermined positions permitting connection to a handle connecting structure (64) on a handle (63) as the handle is moved toward the cartridge, each latch (22) having a latch camming structure (54) that is shaped and positioned to interact with corresponding handle camming structure (69) so as to cause the latch (22) to be deflected and to unlatch a cartridge (12) as the handle is moved toward and connected to cartridge connecting structure (16) of a cartridge. The dispenser (10) also has blade unit dividers (36) that extend from the base (34), are substantially perpendicular to the base, and define blade unit regions in which the blade units are received, and angled dividers (42) that extend from the ends of respective blade unit dividers (36) at acute angles with the base and define angled regions through which the blade units pass in delivery to and removal from the blade unit regions and in which the cartridge connecting structure is received.
