Sheet product dispensers and related methods for reducing sheet product usage
A resistance mechanism for a sheet product dispenser for dispensing a length of sheet product from a roll of sheet product rotatably supported by the sheet product dispenser is provided. The resistance mechanism includes an arm configured to frictionally engage a surface of the roll of sheet product, and a spring attached to the arm and configured to bias the arm into engagement with the surface of the roll of sheet product, such that the resistance mechanism provides a pull force resistance opposing a pull force applied to a tail portion of the roll of sheet product.

Support spindle assembly for a roll
A support spindle assembly for rotatably supporting a coreless paper roll for dispensing, the support spindle assembly including a spindle base, a spindle element having a central longitudinal axis (X) and having first and second ends, the spindle element being attached to the spindle base at the first end and rotationally fixed in relation to the spindle base and a rotatable sleeve rotatably disposed about the spindle element, and rotatable in relation to the spindle base and to the spindle element. The support spindle assembly includes a resilient member disposed about the first end of the spindle element, which resilient member is arranged to cooperate with the spindle base and with the rotatable sleeve in order to provide the rotatable sleeve with a rotational resistance.
DISPENSERS AND RELATED DEVICES AND METHODS FOR MOUNTING DISPENSERS
Innovative mounting devices for innovative wipe dispensers are described.
ROLLED MATERIAL DISPENSER SPINDLE STABILIZER ASSEMBLY
A spindle stabilizer assembly for use in connection with a rolled material dispenser that dispenses a rolled material. The spindle stabilizer assembly includes a spindle having a larger diameter part and a smaller diameter part, where the smaller diameter part is partially inserted into the larger diameter part and is slidable relative thereto against the bias of a spring. Strips of tape are axially formed to the larger diameter part and the larger diameter part is slid into a stabilizing tube, where the tape frictionally slows the rotation between the spindle and the tube. A friction engagement is provided between an outer diameter of the tube and the rolled material that allows the rolled material to rotate relative to the tube under a reasonable force so that the rolled material can be easily torn off the roll.

Sanitary Wipe Dispensing Assembly
A sanitary wipe dispensing assembly for positioning sanitary wipes proximate to a toilet includes a box has a rear facet, a front facet, opposed vertical facets, and opposed horizontal facets. One of the front facet, the opposed vertical facets, and a first one of the opposed horizontal facets is open for insertion of a container of sanitary wipes. The box can be mounted to a substantially vertical surface proximate to a toilet so that the rear facet abuts the substantially vertical surface. An aperture is positioned in a second one of the opposed horizontal facets. A sanitary wipe protruding through the aperture can be grasped and pulled by a user to dispense it from the container for use in maintaining personal hygiene.
