A product dispenser, such as for dispensing napkins, designed to be recessed in a countertop or wall, includes an elongated housing or chute for holding product, a faceplate assembly, and a collar for mounting the dispenser to the countertop or wall. The collar includes a locking arrangement for securing the collar in place without requiring any tools. The locking arrangement includes a thumb screw having a threaded shaft with a first end and a second end, a wing nut at the first end, and a flap at the second end. As the wing nut is rotated in a first direction, the flap is drawn upward until it engages a stop surface, such as the underside of the countertop or inside surface of a wall.

A dispenser for storing and dispensing multiple rolls of sheet material is described. The rolls are held in place within the interior space of the housing by a pair of spindle holders. The housing front cover has an opening and a slidable door disposed therein to provide access to the rolls. A restricting member is movably coupled to the housing interior and biased to move in a direct towards an outmost winding of a roll. As the roll is dispensed, the restricting member moves out of the pathway of the door, eventually allowing a user to slide the door across the opening so that a second roll may be accessed.

Dr. Tinkle's Potty Pal is an electronic toilet paper dispenser for ages 2+. The invention is configured to freely stand within a home restroom and provide interactive learning to a child while seated on the toilet. Power is preferably provided by a lithium battery for long-term use. Once powered on, interactivity of the device is preferably triggered by motion sensor. The interactivity preferably includes flashing lights, sounds and music to entertain the user while learning. All mechanics/electronic components, as well as, the toilet paper roll is preferably housed within the locked top cabinet (or head) of the product. A height controllable stand is used to allow for preferred height placement, and a preferably round base is used for stability and secure placement.

A paper product dispenser includes a hood having a first coupling component; a rear housing member including a second coupling component; a pair of roll support couplers and a dispensing member at least partially disposed within said housing; and a pair of roll support arms. The second coupling component cooperates with the first coupling component for releasably coupling the hood and the rear housing member to one another. The rear housing member and the hood jointly define a housing adapted to hold a roll of paper product therein. The dispensing member is configured to selectively dispense the paper product from within said housing. Each pair of roll support arms are configured to support an end of a roll of paper product within the housing and each is configured for releasable coupling with one of the pair of roll support couplers. The releasable coupling between the hood and the rear housing member or between at least one of the pair of roll support arms and one of the pair of roll support couplers is free of fasteners.

An apparatus for storing hand towels, the apparatus comprising a receiving portion for receiving hand towels, a first retaining member comprising a first retaining portion, the first retaining portion defining a first retaining surface for retaining the hand towels within the receiving portion, a second retaining member comprising a second retaining portion, the second retaining portion defining a second retaining surface for retaining the hand towels within the receiving portion, wherein the first and second retaining members define an opening for providing access to the hand towels and wherein an angle between the first and second retaining surfaces is less than 180 degrees.

A ligature-resistant folded-sheet paper towel dispenser includes a rear housing with a rear mounting plane surface for securing the ligature-resistant paper towel dispenser to a wall. A front cover is rotatably coupled and lockable to the rear housing, and a paper outlet formed by the front cover, the rear housing, or a combination of the front cover and the rear housing and fed by a paper path having a serpentine segment along which the paper towels are guided and that is defined by curved projections that contact the paper towels on alternating faces as the paper towels are dispensed. The paper path terminates in an outlet slot at the bottom of the towel dispenser to dispense paper towels from a stack of folded-sheet paper towels. The paper towel dispenser also includes a locking mechanism for securing the front cover to the rear housing.

A locking assembly for a dispenser may include a locking component and a barrel. The locking component is movable between (i) a first position configured to lock a cover of the dispenser, and (ii) a second position configured to unlock the cover. The barrel is rotatable between (i) a first barrel position configured to resist movement of the locking component, and (ii) a second barrel position configured to permit movement of the locking component. The barrel defines a barrel opening configured to receive a key or a push button. A dispenser including a dispenser plate and a cover may further include the locking assembly. The dispenser defines an interior closable with the cover. The cover is movably coupled to the dispenser plate. The locking assembly releasably secures the cover to the dispenser plate.

A paper product dispenser assembly has a hood that includes a hood coupling component, as well as a first rear housing member that is configured for selective coupling with the hood. The first rear housing member has a first coupling component that cooperates with the hood coupling component for releasably coupling the hood and the first rear housing member to one another. The first rear housing member and the hood jointly define a first housing that is adapted to hold a roll of paper product therein. A second rear housing member of the assembly is configured for selective coupling with the hood in place of the first rear housing member. The second rear housing member has a second coupling component that cooperates with the hood coupling component for releasably coupling the hood and the second rear housing member to one another.

Dispenser for dispensing web material from a roll, the dispenser including a housing and a spindle intended to rotatably support a roll of web material during dispensing. The spindle is movable between a loading position and a dispensing position. The dispenser further includes a deflecting member being movable between a protruding position protruding towards the spindle in dispensing position and a retracted position retracted into the housing away from the spindle in dispensing position. The deflecting member is connected to a blocking member moving in response to the movement of the deflecting member.

A dispenser (10) for cellulose products in sheet form comprising: a container (11) defined by a substantially rectangular lower wall (12), two pairs of opposite lateral walls that extend from the lower wall (12) toward an upper end edge (15) defining an upper mouth (15A) of the container (11), opposite the lower wall (12), respectively a first pair of lateral walls (13) and a second pair of lateral walls (14); a closing cover (16), comprising an opening (17) for picking up cellulose products in sheet form contained in the container (11), adapted to close said container (11) at said upper end edge (15), a pushing assembly (25) for pushing the cellulose products upward, comprising an upper plate (26) adapted to slide vertically along opposite guides (29) provided on opposite lateral walls of the first pair of walls (13) and at least one elastic element (28) positioned between said lower wall (12) and said upper plate (26), adapted to push said upper plate (26) upward, wherein said pushing assembly comprises a lower plate (27) arranged above said lower wall (12) and also slidingly constrained to said opposite guides (29), adapted to form the lower stop for said at least one elastic element (28), so that the latter is adapted to act directly between said lower plate (27) and said upper plate (26).
