A storage and dispensing device for standard and industrial size toilet paper rolls has a mounting member, a base member, a roll storage member, and a mounting element. The mounting element is positioned on the mounting member, and utilizes an over-the-door hook or one or more apertures to hang the mounting member from a door or wall. The base member is connected to the bottom of the mounting member. The roll storage member is connected to the base member opposite the mounting member and is angled upwards to accept multiple rolls of toilet paper. An industrial sized toilet paper roll may be accommodated by the base member. The mounting member may be adjustable in length. An upper roll storage member may be connected to the mounting member opposite the base member for additional roll storage. A locking member between the roll storage member and the mounting member may prevent theft.

A dispenser for dispensing web of paper, the dispenser including a housing, a dispensing opening defined in the housing for dispensing paper. A tear unit is arranged at the dispensing opening for facilitating tear of the paper upon moving the tissue paper over the tear unit. The tear unit includes a tear unit body, and the tear unit body includes a friction surface provided with an elastomer. The elastomer includes rounded protrusions distributed along the friction surface such as to facilitate tearing during dispensing.

A toilet paper dispenser is disclosed in which the dispenser does not need to be mounted to the wall or placed on the floor. The dispenser is typically made of a one-piece construction that installs easily to any existing toilet by way of the mounting bolt for the toilet seat. The toilet paper dispenser adjustably rotates between an extended position alongside the toilet seat and a storage position behind the toilet seat and under the toilet tank. The inventive toilet paper dispenser can receive any size roil of toilet paper, and loads by sliding the roil over the open end of the dispenser. A plastic cover for protecting a loaded roil of toilet paper can be fitted to the dispenser, and one or more concealed compartments on the dispenser can provide a location for a removable fragrance cartridge and/or motion sensing LED battery-powered night light

Various dispensing systems with drop-down features are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the dispensing system includes a roll support with a sensor and a piston. The sensor can move as the roll decreases in size (e.g., the outside diameter decreases) and can apply a force to the roll. The piston can move to become less engaged with the roll, such as becoming less received in a roll plug or the hollow core of the roll. When the roll has decreased to a threshold size, the piston substantially or fully disengages from the roll and/or the sensor applies a force to dislodge the roll from the roll support. This results in the roll automatically dropping off the roll support. The roll support is thus available to receive a fresh roll.

A paper towel dispenser including a base; a center shaft vertically mounted on the base; a spool mount tube rotatably disposed around the center shaft; a biasing element engaging the spool mount tube and placing it at an angle in relation to the center shaft, and brake elements disposed between the center shaft and the spool mount tube. When a user pulls a free end of a paper towel roll outwardly ion a defined direction, the spool mount tube tilts and the brake elements disengage, allowing the spool mount tube to rotate and also allowing paper towel sheets to pay out. If the user pulls at an angle relative to the center shaft on the free end of the paper towel roll, the brake elements engage and prevent rotation of the spool mount tube, thus allowing the user to tear off and separate the dispensed paper towel sheets.

A multipurpose rolled tissue dispensing stand having a pair of tubular legs attached to a pair of tubular vertical rods further attached at their top ends to a horizontal rod holding a tissue dispensing unit comprised of a base plate holding a tissue dispensing orifice with a serrated edge at the front end and a handle with a lock at the back end. A tubular tissue holding rod is attached to the vertical rods and holds the rolled tissue on the stand. The handle on the base plate of the tissue dispensing unit can be unlocked and actuated to swing the base plate up when inserting the tissue roll into the tissue holding rod and actuated down to place the base plate locked over the tissue. A standard tissue dispensing box with an open bottom can be placed over the rolled tissue dispensing stand.

The hub described herein is adapted for specialized use with relatively larger diameter tissue roll cores and large width rolls. The hub prevents the practical use of smaller tissue rolls having smaller core diameters and/or being a smaller width roll. The hub allows for custom matching a bath tissue roll with a particular hub for quality control purposes. The hub facilitates the installation of a predetermined uniform bath tissue to be mounted in a dispenser with the hub.

The present invention relates to a telescopic paper holder having a base member with a mounting plate for the mounting of the telescopic paper holder to a wall, floor or other article. On the opposing side of the telescopic paper holder, a primary holder having a proximal end and a distal end is designed to be positioned within a center of a roll of paper during use. Between the primary holder and the mounting plate, at least one telescopic member is positioned. During operation, a user may extend or collapse the at least one telescopic member to move the primary holder relative to the mounting plate.

Embodiments of a roll support, and a roll support system, for a sheet product dispenser are disclosed. One such roll support includes an arm having an end portion and an aperture proximate the end portion of the arm and recessed therein. The aperture includes a capture region and a release region. The capture region has a width dimensioned to receive a matching end cap and shaped to allow the matching end cap to rotate freely within the capture region. The release region is contiguous with the capture region and has a width less than the width of the capture region.

A door for a towel dispensing cabinet may be pivotable over an opening of a cavity. Frameworks may extend from a face of the door and define slots for stably receiving ends of a spindle assembly onto which a towel roll may be mounted. The frameworks may also include channels through which a shaft connecting the ends of the spindle assembly may be received to allow the spindle assembly to be received deeper into the slots. Towels may be dispensed from spindle assembly when stably received within the frameworks when the door is open. The door may be closed to position the spindle assembly within the cavity and seal the opening. The spindle assembly may also be removed from the frameworks for separate use when the door is open.
