Systems, methods and apparatus for dispensing of paper products. A dispenser comprising a housing comprising a product holding area defined by a front, back and two sides, and a dispenser throat defining an opening through the housing; a motor coupled to the rolled product and configured to rotate the rolled product in first and second directions; and a feed mechanism having a first side opening and a second side opening different from the first side opening, wherein both the first side and second side openings are different from that dispenser throat, and wherein the first side opening is configured to accept the tail when the rolled product has a first orientation and is rotated in the first direction and the second side opening is configured to accept the tail when the rolled product has a second orientation and is rotated in the second direction.

A dispenser for rolled paper includes a shell mounted to a spindle assembly which is mounted to a wall for convenient access in a bathroom or other facility. The dispenser also includes a lid assembly mounted to the shell and spindle assembly for rotational or pivotal movement to and between closed and open configurations. When in the closed configuration, a free edge of the paper roll may be pulled from the roll and the roll rotates on the spindle assembly for dispensing the paper. The paper roll may be inspected and/or replaced by rotation of the lid assembly about a pivot pin to an open configuration. Cooperating cam and cam surfaces and the bias of a spring on the pivot pin urge the lid assembly away from the shell during rotation toward the open configuration to allow for proper clearance and positioning of the lid assembly relative to the shell.

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.

Accessibly positioned sanitizing materials can include paper towels and sanitizing sprays. A paper towel holder with a central support to hold a roll of paper towels can allow spinning dispensing of paper towels. The central support can also function separately as a removable disinfectant sprayer, enabling a user to carry and store paper towels and disinfecting solution in the same location, and providing a disinfecting sprayer nearby when paper towels are used to clean a surface. The structure described can also house other fluids for spraying.

A dispenser includes a housing, a first support for rotatably supporting a first roll and a second support for rotatably supporting a second roll, the dispenser further including a dispensing opening and a door configured to be movable between a first rest position, in which dispensing of material from the first roll when provided on the first support is hindered by the door, and a second rest position , in which dispensing of material from the second roll when provided on the second support via the dispensing opening is hindered by the door. The dispenser further includes a lever arrangement and a biasing element.

A sheet dispenser lid includes a lid attachable a container and a slotted conical nozzle arranged on the lid. The conical nozzle has an exit port and a plurality of ribs arranged on an interior surface.

An example sheet product dispenser includes a housing, a first roll holder, and a second roll holder. A first roll of sheet product is positioned on the first roll holder and assigned as a primary roll and a second roll of sheet product is positioned on the second roll holder and assigned as a secondary roll. A dispensing mechanism is configured to dispense sheet product from at least one of the first roll and the second roll. A sensor is configured to sense measurement data associated with the primary roll, including sensing when the primary roll rotates to dispense and measuring the diameter of the primary roll. A data communication device is in communication with the sensor and configured to transmit the measurement data. A controller is configured to determine situational information regarding the sheet product dispenser and provide corresponding alerts to users regarding the situational information and measured data.
