Abstract

A dispensing system for individual folded webs having an area of non-uniform thickness across the length of the web is composed of several components. An outer housing defines an interior space in which stacking means for holding a stack of individual folded webs are mounted. A dispensing face is defined in the outer housing proximate to an end of the stacking means. The dispensing face has a central portion projecting out from the dispenser in the form of a first surface and a second surface joined at an obtuse angle and a dispensing throat located in the central portion at about the intersection of the first and second surfaces. The dispensing system also includes a stack of individual folded webs having an area of non-uniform thickness across the length of the web aligned so that an area of greatest thickness extends across the width of the dispensing throat. At least one recessed section along at least one edge of the dispensing throat contacts the stack of individual folded webs so that a portion of the stack of individual folded webs projects outward from the dispensing throat.
