Abstract: Sealed package that includes a formed plastic container, a shaving cartridge (or other stored unit) in a storage region in the container, a surface defining a rim surrounding an entrance to the storage region, and a ramp that connects the rim to a said wall and leads to the shaving cartridge (or other stored unit). The container has a removable cover that covers and is seated to the rim surface. Side walls of the container have retaining structure that protrudes inward and retains the shaving cartridge (or other stored unit). The container has a lip adjacent to and extending from a side wall of the container at an entrance to the storage region to space a user's finger or thumb from the entrance during removal of the cartridge. The removable cover is formed as a film. The film has deadfold characteristics which facilitate removal of the cartridge when the film is still partially connected at the rear of the container.

The removable cover has deadfold characteristics which facilitate removal of the cartridge when the cover is still partially connected at the rear of the container. A plastic tab is attached to a portion of the cover extending beyond the rim surface of the container to initiate removal of the cover from the rim surface. The plastic tab is spaced from the formed plastic container by a gap.

Abstract: A cartridge dispenser for razor blade cartridges including latches that retain cartridges in predetermined positions permitting connection to a handle connecting structure on a handle as the handle is moved toward the cartridge, each latch having a latch camming structure that is shaped and positioned to interact with corresponding handle camming structure so as to cause the latch to be deflected and to unlatch a cartridge as the handle is moved toward and connected to cartridge connecting structure of a cartridge. The dispenser also has blade unit dividers that extend from the base, are substantially perpendicular to the base, and define blade unit regions in which the blade units are received, and angled dividers that extend from the ends of respective blade unit dividers 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.
