A floss dispenser has an essentially cylindrical case, the case including a cylindrical wall with an inner surface and two opposite ends. The case further includes an opening formed in at least one end for receiving a spool having floss wrapped around a hub. A cap is received within the opening in the end of the case. The cap has an annular wall for receiving and centering the hub of the spool when the cap is sealing the opening of the case, and at least one opening formed therein through which floss is threaded out of the end of the case. For securely attaching the cap to the case, a first interlocking engagement member associated with the cap engages a mating second interlocking engagement member associated with the case. The arrangement is such that upon insertion of the cap into the open end of the case and rotating the cap, the first engagement member of the cap engages the second engagement member of the case for preventing the axial movement of the cap relative to the case. Preferably, the first engagement member includes three protrusions which engage three mating protrusions of the second engagement member for securing the cap to the case.
La présente invention vise un distributeur de soie floche, soit un boîtier dont la paroi est sensiblement cylindrique et qui comporte donc deux extrémités opposées. Au moins une de ces extrémités est ouverte pour y insérer une bobine de soie enroulée autour d'un moyeu. L'ouverture se referme à l'aide d'un bouchon, qui compte une paroi annulaire de façon à accommoder et à centrer le moyeu lors que le couvercle est fermé. Ce bouchon compte au moins une ouverture pour débobiner la soie. Le bouchon est solidement retenu au boîtier grâce à un dispositif de verrouillage réciproque. Le bouchon est inséré dans l'ouverture du boîtier et un mouvement de rotation provoque l'emboîtement des deux pièces et l'immobilisation du bouchon par rapport au boîtier. De préférence, le mécanisme de verrouillage comprend trois abouts sur le bouchon qui s'emboîtent dans trois abouts correspondant sur le boîtier.
