Abstract
A cover for a desiccant dispenser is mounted over an opening of a bucket-shaped container containing a plurality of desiccant bags. The cover includes a hard main plate having a taking-out bore for insertion of a hand to take out the desiccant bags, and one elastic plate mounted on the main plate to cover the taking-out bore and having a plurality of cuts arranged radiately to permit the insertion and withdrawal of the hand. This can greatly extend the duration of the activity of desiccant bags placed in a bucket-shaped container of a dispenser, particularly desiccant bags located in an uppermost layer.
