  • Patent number: 5020719
    Abstract: A dispensing container has a main body portion with opposing side, back and front and top and bottom walls. The lower portion of the front wall is rupturable and removable from the front wall to form an access opening to gain access to the interior of the main body. A slideable tray rests on the bottom wall and is slidably movable to an extended position where the tray is withdrawn through the access opening. The tray has front, bottom, back and sidewall panels. An abutment member carried by each sidewall panel is adapted to engage the inner surface of the front wall adjacent the access opening for preventing withdrawal of the tray completely from the main body. The tray back wall panel extends upwardly a greater height than the other panels of the tray and includes thereon a plurality of score lines extending widthwise of the tray for serving to guide the contents of the tray toward the front panel of the tray.
