Storage and Dispensing Device for Standard and Industrial Size Toilet Paper Rolls
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.
Paper dispenser
According to an exemplary embodiment, a dispenser for rolled paper product includes a first arm and a second arm, with the first arm having an elongate member configured to receive a roll of paper product. A first mounting bracket is configured to rotatingly couple the first arm to a mounting surface. The first arm is configured to cover the first mounting bracket from view. A second mounting bracket is configured to rigidly couple the second arm to the mounting surface.

A first mounting bracket is configured to rotatingly couple the first arm to a mounting surface. The first arm is configured to cover the first mounting bracket from view. A second mounting bracket is configured to rigidly couple the second arm to the mounting surface.
Spindle for paper rolls
A spindle assembly for supporting a roll of paper product is disclosed with features that make the spindle versatile and useable for supporting paper product rolls in a plurality of styles of dispensers. The spindle assembly also includes features that assist in maintaining the supported paper rolls in a desired orientation, such as horizontally in a vertically oriented dispenser. This resists skewing of the rolls in the dispenser and facilitates the separation of the rolls as paper is used from a lower roll in a dispenser. Also, brake members are provided to engage the core of a supported roll of paper to slow down the rotation of the roll of paper when pulled upon by a user.

Core plug for a roll of sheet product
A core plug for supporting a roll of sheet product with respect to a sheet product dispenser is provided. The core plug may include a shell and a support. The shell may be positioned about a longitudinal axis of the core plug and configured to be at least partially inserted into a central opening of the roll of sheet product. The support may be movably attached to the shell and configured to engage a support feature of the sheet product dispenser such that the roll of sheet product is rotatably supported with respect to the sheet product dispenser. The support may be positioned at least partially within the shell, and at least a portion of the support may be configured to translate relative to the shell in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the core plug.

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.
HOLDING ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR HOLDING A TISSUE ROLL IN A DISPENSER, AND DISPENSER
A holding arrangement for holding a tissue roll in a dispenser, to a dispenser and a method is disclosed. The holding mechanism comprises a holding mechanism for holding a tissue roll in a first tissue roll position; wherein the holding mechanism comprises a first holding element for engaging a first end of an axle of the tissue roll and a second holding element for engaging a second end of the axle of the tissue roll; a diameter sensor; and a shift mechanism adapted for shifting the holding mechanism, in particular the first and second holding elements, from a hold position to a release position and vice versa; wherein a distance between the first holding element and the second holding element in the release position is larger than a distance between the first holding element and the second holding element in the hold position.
Spindle and Cover Components for Sheet Product Dispensers and Dispenser Systems Including Such Components
Spindles and cover assemblies for dispensing sheet product are provided, such as for use with coreless sheet product rolls. The spindle may include a hollow cylindrical body, which may have an elongated channel in a sidewall; a rod which extends partially out of the body; and a spring disposed within the body in biasing contact with the rod, wherein the rod may include a flexible tab matingly engaged within the channel, permitting the rod to translate within the hollow cylindrical body without falling out. In some other cases, the hollow cylindrical body may have an end with an opening bounded by an inward facing ledge, and the rod may include a radial ledge, such that the rod can translate within the body but cannot fall out due to interference between the inward facing ledge and the radial ledge. In some other cases, the spindle includes a friction hub disposed about and rotatable around the hollow cylindrical body between ends of the body.
