  • Wet wipe dispenser with refill cartridge
    Patent number: 6158614
    Abstract: A dispenser of wet wipes from a coreless log includes a semi-cylindrical chimney member in the lid of the container that houses the log or houses a refill cartridge in which the log is disposed. The chimney member is disposed and configured to shelter the main portion of a dispensing opening without sealing the dispensing opening. The chimney member influences the user to extract the wipe in a way that reduces the wasteful incidence of streaming of wipes from the log.
