COVID19 Belt Clip Dispenser Box for Disinfecting Hand Wipes

COVID-19 Prevention is Crucial A specially designed belt-worn dispenser for moist sanitary hand wipes offers quick, easy, one-handed access to protect hands when opening doors, clean hands, or wipe down surfaces. The dispenser box features a belt clip on the back of the box that can be easily seen when rotating the box. This convenient design allows users to quickly access the wipes without compromising cleanliness. Typically, packs of moist towelettes are stored in purses or pockets, but accessing them with dirty hands is not recommended. The dispenser box makes it possible to quickly and easily access the wipes when needed most without making anything else dirty. The box is designed for use with packs of moist towelettes commonly sold at drug stores, which usually contain 20 to a pack. To assemble the dispenser, simply open the pack, place the towelettes in the belt-worn dispenser, lock them in place with the clamp, and close the box to keep them moist. To dispense a wipe, users can easily access the box by opening it from their belt. The clamp is designed to dispense one wipe at a time. When the dispensers are exhausted, users will need to run a drill bit through the hinges and insert a pin into the hinge when the box and cover are together. Initially, we outsourced 3D printing services to Shapeways.com to test the idea. The result was successful, but to make the dispenser accessible to the public at a reasonable cost, an injection mold would need to be created to produce the boxes. We encourage entrepreneurs who wish to serve the public with a needed product during this challenging time to consider making the mold and selling the dispensers at a reasonable cost as a public service.
