A needle dispenser includes a hopper configured to receive and hold a plurality of bulk needles for dispensing. A singularizing drum is positioned to rotate with a portion of the singularizing drum exposed to the interior of the hopper. The singularizing drum includes at least one groove in an outer surface of the singularizing drum. A positioning drum positioned to rotate adjacent to the singularizing drum. The positioning drum includes at least one groove in an outer surface of the positioning drum. The singularizing drum and the positioning drum rotate in coordination to pass a needle from the at least one groove of the singularizing drum to the at least one groove of the positioning drum.

A twist-tie dispenser comprises a twist-tie cluster and a base. The base includes a top portion, a rear wall extending downward from the top portion, and an open front. A latching structure for removably mounting the base to a fixture is defined at least in part by a first hook-like extension protruding from the rear wall of the base, the first hook-like extension defining a pocket formed by an upper stop surface and a vertical retention surface, the latching structure also defined at least in part by a flexible portion of the rear wall that is configured to elastically deflect through a cut-out provided on the rear wall in a direction from the rear wall toward the open front when a rod-like mounting structure of the fixture is inserted into the pocket of the first hook-like extension, the flexible portion also defining a lower stop surface that opposes the upper stop surface of the first hook-like extension when the rod-like mounting structure is within the pocket and is captured between the lower stop surface and the upper stop surface.

A twist-tie dispensing assembly for dispensing of loose twist-ties in bulk form comprises a base defining a rear wall and an open front, wherein a flexible portion of the rear wall is configured to elastically deflect through a cut-out provided on the rear wall in a direction from the rear wall toward the open front. A box is mounted to the base, the box defining a back wall and a storage compartment configured to hold twist-ties, the back wall of the base defining a slot exposing the storage compartment to an exterior of the box, wherein the slot is configured to receive at least partially the flexible portion of the rear wall of the base from the exterior of the box toward the storage compartment when the box is mounted to the base.

The present application discloses a container with a revolver-type cylinder to raise or lower objects from their container, the objects being a quadrangular shape such as cigarettes or cigars, pencils, lip or eyeliners, crayons, candies, sweets or some other products. The container is made of aluminum or any appropriate material, and is in the shape of a revolver-type cylinder with thin tubes. Further, the objects are raised or lowered with a magnetic mechanism utilizing a sliding lever.

Systems, devices and methods to improve safety and efficiency in an operating room comprise providing a suture package that holds new suture needles and needle receptacles for storing used needles. The devices can be safely worn for the surgeon to self-dispense new suture needles in the near surgical field and to secure the used needles into a needle trap or a needle retainer located on his extremity, on his operative instruments or on the surgical drapes. The device may provide automated and/or simplified needle counting both during use and after removal from the surgical field. The device may be configured for ergonomic and efficient use so as to minimize the actions and motions of the surgeon to dispense and secure the needle.
