  • the features other than the configurations of the holding member 25 and the composite structure of the lid 5, take-out hole member 4, and orifice member 14 depicted in FIG. 12 are the same as in the first embodiment.
  • no structure corresponding to the opening member 20 illustrated in the first embodiment is provided. This, however, does not prohibit the use of a member that can ensure the sealed state of the storage body 3, such as the opening member 20, in the wipe dispenser.
  • a structure may be used in which the wipe dispenser is covered with a flap-seal member such that covers the opening 2, and a composite structure of the lid 5, take-out hole member 4, and orifice member 14 is mounted on the flap-seal member.
  • the sealed state of the storage body 3 can be released by opening the lid 5 and pulling out the flap-seal member from the orifice of the orifice member 14.
  • the lid 5 is arranged to be capable of opening and closing, as indicated by an arrow A, in the outer end mouth portion of the take-out hole 8 formed in the take-out hole member 4.
  • One end of the orifice member 14 is attached to the take-out hole member 4 and disposed in a region on the inner side of the storage body 3 with respect to the take-out hole member 4 in a state of being biased in the direction of an arrow B toward the stack of wipes 6N.
  • the orifice member 14 is cantilever supported in the same manner as in the first embodiment, but the orifice member 14 may be also configured to move as a whole, as in the second and third embodiments, or may have other configurations.
  • the holding member 25 is provided to protrude to the rear surface side of the lid 5. Further, an engagement hole 25N which engages with the holding member 25 when the lid 5 is closed is formed in the orifice member 14.
  • the engagement hole 25N is a through hole passing through the orifice member 14 perpendicular to the sheet surface, and the holding member 25 is an engagement pin having a distal end portion that is inserted into the engagement hole 25N with resistance.
  • the wipe dispenser of the fifth embodiment in a state in which the lid 5 is closed and the distal end of the holding member 25 is inserted into the engagement hole 25N, the holing material 25 holds the orifice member 14 in a state of being drawn to the lid 5 side, and where the lid 5 is open, as shown by the arrow A, the holding member 25 is pulled out from the engagement hole 25N, whereby the orifice member 14 is moved by the biasing force in the direction of the arrow B and pressed against the stack of wipes 6N.
  • the wipe dispenser of the fifth embodiment makes it possible to obtain the same effect as that of the first embodiment.
  • a slit or the like may be formed in the distal end portion for the holding member 25 which is to be press fitted into the engagement hole 25N, so that the distal end portion could be reliably pulled out from the engagement hole 25N when a constant force is applied.
  • the holding member 25 is formed by integral molding with the lid 5, but it may be also attached as a separate member to the lid 5.
