A dispenser for web articles such as plastic bags which are torn from the web includes a support for the webbing, pivotally mounted in a frame. The support and frame each include jaws defining a nozzle through which the webbing passes. The weight of the support and of the webbing draws the jaws together in a clamping action, so as to frictionally engage the webbing, preparatory to tearing.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A dispenser for flexible webbing having a free end and comprising a serial array of articles joined end to end along lines of weakness, the dispenser comprising:a first frame means including a first jaw member;a second frame means for supporting a supply of the webbing as the free end is withdrawn from the first frame means, said second frame means including a second jaw member;pivotal mounting means for mounting the second frame means for pivotal movement with respect to the first frame means, between closed and open positions so as to move the first jaw member toward and away from the second jaw member;the first and the second jaw members cooperating to form a dispensing nozzle for guiding the webbing with a frictional engagement as the webbing is passed between the first and the second jaw members and for supporting the webbing as articles are severed the webbing by tearing along lines of weakness; andthe pivotal mounting means arranged so that the weight of the webbing urges the first and the second jaw members together so as to form the dispensing nozzle and to frictionally engage the webbing.
