A dispenser including two roll supports; and a housing, the dispenser configured such that the roll supports can assume the following positions relative to the housing: at least one dispensing position for a roll support of the two roll supports, and a storage position for a roll support of the two roll supports, the dispenser configured for allowing dispensing from a roll arranged on a roll support of the two roll supports which is in the dispensing position and for storage of a roll arranged on a roll support of the two roll supports which is in the storage position; the dispenser configured to provide a first state, wherein a first roll support of the roll supports is in the dispensing position and a second roll support of the roll supports is in the storage position, and a second state, wherein the second roll support is in a dispensing position.

A bathroom modular device includes a base, including a lower surface, configured to be connected to a bathroom fixture and includes a module assembly having a plurality of modules, at least one module configured to be removably connected to the lower surface of the base. A managing system includes a bathroom modular device and a server communicably connected to the modular device. The bathroom modular device includes a base configured to be connected to a bathroom fixture and comprising a lower surface. The bathroom modular device also includes a module assembly comprising a plurality of modules, at least one module configured to be removably connected to a lower surface of the base. A bathroom managing method includes receiving a detection result obtained by a sensor; determining whether the received detection result satisfies at least one condition defined by a predetermined value; and generating a notification to perform corresponding maintenance work.

A bathroom tissue holder assembly for holding a pair of rolls of toilet tissue includes a bracket that is mountable to a vertical support surface at a point located proximate a lavatory. A shaft is provided and the shaft removably engages the bracket to support a first roll of toilet tissue on the bracket. A holder is coupled to and extends upwardly from the bracket to support a second roll of toilet tissue. In this way the second roll of toilet tissue is accessible when the first roll of toilet tissue is depleted. A wrapping is formable into a cylinder and the wrapping can be wrapped around the second roll of toilet tissue when the second roll of toilet tissue is being stored on the holder.

Various tissue dispensers are disclosed. The tissue dispenser can hold a main roll of tissue and a stub roll of tissue. In response to the tissue of the stub roll being exhausted, an advance system of the tissue dispenser can automatically transition the tissue dispenser to dispensing tissue material of the main roll.

Some example sheet product dispensers that accommodate one or more sheet product rolls are provided herein. An example sheet product dispenser includes a dispensing mechanism with a drive roller and nip roller. A motor is configured to rotate the drive roller to cause a portion of the sheet product to dispense from the sheet product dispenser. A controller is configured to determine a sheet length for dispensing and cause the motor to operate to cause sheet product to be dispensed from the sheet product dispenser. The controller is further configured to monitor an amount of rotation of the motor as the motor operates and cause, in an instance in which the amount of rotation of the motor corresponds to the determined sheet length, the motor to cease operation so as to cause the determined sheet length of sheet product to be dispensed from the sheet product dispenser.

Some example product dispensers that accommodate two full paper towel rolls are provided herein. The product dispenser may employ separate dispensing mechanisms for each product roll and may include roll holders that articulate out from the housing to facilitate easy loading and access to replacement and loading of the other product roll. A roll partition may be utilized to separate the web paths of the two product rolls and enable rotation of front roll holders. Example funnel covers and nip covers can aid with intuitive installation. Example roll holders with retention mechanisms help prevent unintentional dropping of the installed product roll. Other beneficial features include utilizing motor operation sensing to dispense a desired sheet length, automatic/assisted loading into the dispensing mechanism, automatic switching between dispensing of product rolls, and always dispensing from the smaller product roll first. Many other features/structures of example product dispensers are also described herein.
