Dispenser for rolled foil and wall assembly of same
The present invention refers to the apparatus for storage and dispensing foil from the roll, and also to the wall attachment for placement of multiple dispensers in vertical dispenser system for rolled materials, where two side walls and one back wall of dispenser's body, perpendicular to the floor, enclose the storage space for the material from three sides, while fixedly attached cutting assembly provides the fourth wall. The elongated slot located close to the back wall in the floor of the dispenser base interacts with gravitationally working pivoting latch of the mounting wall frame in the vertical dispenser system to secure placement of installed apparatus on the wall frame. Top rotatable attached to the side walls of the container, while lifted from horizontal position by handle tab, reveals the free end of foil on top of the shroud that remains ready for picking and pulling from the roll in container anytime the top is lifted from horizontal position and then cut by pulling farther the unwound foil while bottom edge of top's body tab pushes foil below the cutting blade, and also frictionally holds the foil between shroud and top's body tab, therefore the foil, pulled farther, engages with serration of the cutting blade due to the intervening position of the said blade in relation to pulling direction.
