DEFINITION

Classification: 221/107

(under subclass 103) Devices in which articles present in the normal flow path between the dispensing stack and an egress outlet of the dispenser hold back or control means to block other possible replenishment or additional sources.

SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:

104+, for plural source dispensers in which replacement sources or stacks move relative to the discharge means and in some of which such movement may take place prior to the complete discharge of the original or preceding stack so that initial dispensing from the replacement stack is prevented by the remaining articles of the preceding stack.
