A dispensing nozzle comprising a plate overlying a bore defined through a countertop for the passage of bags therethrough from a subjacent storage position. The plate defines an elongate zig-zag slot for the restrictive movement of bags therethrough upon a manual pulling of a leading bag. Each manually pulled leading bag is automatically severed from a following bag secured thereto along a line of severance by slot-developed resistance. Introduction of the forwardmost bag of a bag package is facilitated by an enlarged opening laterally of one side of the slot and communicated with the slot through a relatively narrower neck portion. The nozzle may include a tubular sleeve receivable in the countertop bore, with the plate secured to or integrally formed with the sleeve across one end thereof.

In a system for individually severing and dispensing plastic bags from a package of bags sequentially joined along severance lines, a counter including a countertop having a product-receiving upper surface, bag storage means below said countertop for supporting a package of bags for the sequential drawing of bags therefrom, a bore through said countertop, a bag dispensing nozzle including a plate portion mounted on said countertop in alignment with said bore, said nozzle further defining a bag-passing aperture in said plate portion and including opposed spaced edges defining an elongated dispensing slot with means resisting the free movement of bags therethrough, said means resisting the free movement of bags comprising alternating projections and recesses along said edges defining a zigzag configuration, said bag passing aperture further including a bag supply introducing opening extending through said plate laterally to one side of said slot and communicating with said slot through an adjacent slot edge, said opening being of greater width than said slot and including a generally circular portion remote from said slot and a radial extension interconnecting said circular portion and said slot whereby the first bag from said bag supply is initially introduced through said bag supply opening and moved to said bag dispensing slot by withdrawal of the initial bag from the supply and subsequent bags are dispensed through said dispensing slot.
