Abstract

A dispenser comprising a body (10) comprising an asymmetrical shape corresponding to a flat product pouch. The body includes a row of teeth (42) extending longitudinally along the bottom of the body. A gripper (28) is slidingly engaged with the bottom of the body and is coupled to a squeeze pusher (32) disposed within the interior space of the body. An actuator arm (30) is movably attached to the gripper. A drive mechanism is movably attached to the actuator and is engageable with the row of teeth. To dispense, movement of the actuator causes corresponding movement of the drive mechanism which causes the gripper and squeeze pusher to move relative to the body in a direction from the proximal end to the dispensing end, thereby applying pressure to the bag.

Description

technical field [0001] The presently disclosed subject matter generally relates to a system for dispensing packaged products. As set forth herein in more detail below, the disclosed packaging system includes an outer container and an inner flexible package that includes a frangible seal. Methods of making and using the disclosed system are also within the scope of the presently disclosed subject matter. Background technique [0002] In food service, and especially in the field of high-volume rapid food service, it is frequently desired that food products be supplemented with condiments such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and the like. More recently, it has become commonplace in retail quick service chain food outlets to use a variety of devices to dispense measured quantities of flowable products. For example, conventional, trigger-actuated dispensing gun assemblies have been commonly used in "restaurant kitchen" operations for dispensing one or more condiments or sauces...
