Abstract
The rotary dispenser of this invention includes a plurality (such as ten) of outer disk-like members of which each is formed with a plurality of like-sized and spaced pockets. Each outer disk is supported and positively positioned by an inner tubular supporting member. This member is carried by a tubular shaft carrying all rotary dispensers. Each pocket in the outer disk is closed by a spring strip having resilient side supports. Pins are carried in guideways and the outer end of each pin engages the bottom spring-like strip and the other end of the pin is carried on and is moved in and out by a conical ring carried by a spine shaft movable within the tubular shaft. This spine shaft is moved longitudinally by a threaded portion rotatably carried by a nut secured to the tubular shaft. The dispenser is rotated with the same peripheral speed as a travelling web of material.
