A dispenser (1) for dispensing strip elements (4), having a supply chamber (3) for accommodating a strip-element stack (St), and having a discharging pusher (14) with a nose (16) for interacting with a first strip element (4') of the strip-element stack (St), via a discharging slot (15) which is ada

A dispenser (1) for dispensing strip elements (4), having a supply chamber (3) for accommodating a strip-element stack (St), and having a discharging pusher (14) with a nose (16) for interacting with a first strip element (4') of the strip-element stack (St), via a discharging slot (15) which is adapted to the thickness (y) of a strip element (4). In order to achieve a more functionally advantageous solution, the discharging pusher (14) has a pusher nose (16) which is made of elastically compliant material and, in the uninfluenced state, projects by more than the thickness (y) of the strip element (4).

The cap of claim 6 wherein said fuel port closure is spaced from said handle and said seal is generally positioned between said fuel port closure and said handle, said retainer being attached to said handle and spaced from said seal and said fuel port closure. 8. The cap of claim 6 further comprising said retainer being spaced from said seal for receiving a portion of a fuel receiving assembly therebetween, said retainer and seal being sized and dimensioned for maintaining engagement of said seal with a fuel receiving assembly prior to disengagement of said retainer from a fuel receiving assembly. 9. The cap of claim 6 wherein said retainer includes an inwardly extending engaging portion which biasedly engages a portion of a fuel receiving assembly for maintaining a conductive electrical contact therebetween. 10. The cap of claim 6 wherein said retainer includes a plurality of fingers generally inwardly radially extending being sized and dimensioned to biasedly engage a corresponding surface of a fuel receiving assembly to provide electrically conductive engagement of said retainer with a fuel receiving assembly. 11. A method of establishing a common electrical potential and preventing escape of fuel vapors from a fuel port prior to establishing said common electrical potential, said method comprising the steps of: providing a fuel receiving assembly defining a fuel port, providing a fuel cap for engagement with and covering of said fuel port, providing an electrically conductive retainer coupled to said fuel cap, providing a handle on said fuel cap, at least a portion of said handle and said fuel cap being electrically conductive, providing a fuel port closure for engaging said fuel receiving assembly, providing a seal on said fuel cap for sealing said fuel port when said fuel cap is engaged with at least a portion of said fuel receiving assembly, sealing said fuel port when said cap is engaged with said fuel receiving assembly, establishing a common electrically conductive path from said handle to said electrically conductive retainer and between said electrically conductive retainer and an electrically conductive portion of said fuel receiving assembly, maintaining an electrically conductive path from said handle to said electrically conductive retainer and between said electrically conductive retainer and said electrically conductive portion of said fuel receiving assembly, and disengaging said seal between said fuel cap and said fuel receiving assembly and maintaining the electrically conductive path from said handle to said fuel receiving assembly at least until fuel vapor has been permitted to escape between said fuel cap and said fuel receiving assembly. 12. A fuel cap for engaging a fuel receiving assembly to removably close a portion of the fuel receiving assembly, the fuel cap including: a handle; a closure depending from the handle; the closure being sized and dimensioned for engagement with a portion of the fuel receiving assembly to at least cover a portion of the fuel receiving assembly; at least a portion of the handle being electrically conductive; an electrically conductive retainer carried on the cap; the electrically conductive retainer being electrically coupled to the conductive portion of the cap for providing an electrically conductive path from the handle to the electrically conductive retainer; the electrically conductive retainer being carried on the cap for conductively contacting at least a conduct
