The present technology relates to apparatuses, systems, and methods for holding and dispensing a roll of material. The apparatus can comprise a supporting structure which can include an engaging member connected to a supporting member. The supporting member can comprise a connecting element. The engaging member can be configured to engage a household fixture. The connecting element can be configured to connect to a second connecting element of a second supporting structure such that the supporting members of the first and second supporting structure support a roll of material.

A shelf system has a shelf component and a support frame component configured to removably support the shelf component in a cantilever fashion in an assembled state of the shelf system. The shelf component has a top surface, a bottom surface, a front end, a rear end, opposite sides between the front and rear ends, and a longitudinal groove formed in the bottom surface between the opposite sides. The support frame component is formed of a base panel having a front side, a rear side, a top end, a bottom end and opposite lateral sides between the top and bottom ends. A pair of support members extend from the front side of the support frame component for supporting a cross member. The longitudinal groove of the shelf component is configured to engage the cross member of the support frame component in the assembled state of the shelf system.

A spindle assembly for supporting a web material roll in a web material dispenser, the web material roll having first and second extremities and defining a central cavity provided with a bushing toward the first extremity. The spindle assembly includes a bushing-engaging member having: a first dispenser mounting portion mountable to a first side of the dispenser, and a bushing-engaging portion sized and configured to fit at least partially in the bushing; and a spindle connection member having: a second dispenser mounting portion mountable to a second side of the dispenser, and a connecting portion removably mountable to the bushing-engaging member; thereby allowing use of the roll with the bushing in the dispenser. Also, a roll dispensing assembly and a method for inserting a roll of web material in a dispenser.

A ligature resistant holder for a roll of material that is to be disposed within a wall. The holder includes a housing of which at least one side walls has an aperture with which a support assembly is associated. The support assembly includes a support member, a biasing member, a retainer and a support housing. The retainer extends through the aperture and includes portions defining a passage through the retainer. At least partially disposed within the passage of the retainer is the support member. The support member includes an actuation portion, which extends into the chamber, and a stop portion that extends radially relative to the actuation portion and engages the retainer such that axial movement of the button through the passage is limited. The biasing member is at least partially disposed within the support housing and biases the support member for movement within the chamber.

A toilet paper dispenser including a wall mounted toilet paper dispensing body entirely recessed within a building wall; at least one rod disposed within the wall mounted toilet paper dispensing body to support at least one toilet paper roll thereon; and a door hingedly coupled to a lateral edge of the wall mounted toilet paper dispensing body so to form an enclosure that encloses the at least one rod and the at least one toilet paper roll when the door is closed.

A dispenser which holds a single roll of toilet paper while also providing protection against damage or unrolling of the toilet paper roll by cats. A housing is composed of both a front and back portion connected by two hinges on the top surfaces. Both portions consist of a top, bottom, left and right sides. The front portion also has a partial front face. This front portion has a removable panel that is attached by four fasteners which can be customized with graphics and/or wording and which can be viewed whether the front portion is open or closed. The rear portion also has a partial rear side with four holes in it that are utilized for four fasteners to be used to mount the invention to a vertical surface. When closed, this dispenser provides full enclosure of the toilet paper roll which is supported by an internal spindle.

A sheet product dispenser for dispensing sheet product from a roll of sheet product is provided. An example sheet product dispenser includes a housing defining an interior space for receiving a first roll of sheet product therein, a mandrel positioned within the interior space, and a spindle positioned over at least a portion of the mandrel and configured to support the first roll of sheet product for rotation about the mandrel. The spindle comprises a base portion and a nose portion configured to translate relative to one another along a longitudinal axis of the mandrel. At least a portion of the spindle is configured to translate relative to the mandrel from a first configuration to a second configuration to cause a remainder of the first roll of sheet product to deform and enable movement of a dispensing door to enable access to a second roll of sheet product.
