Embodiment Construction

[0041] Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings and the following detailed description to refer to the same or like parts.

[0042] In the following, reference will be made to Figure 1 to Figure 3 Describes a manually operated dispenser.

[0043] Figure 1 to Figure 3 A sheet product dispenser 1 is shown which can be used for dispensing different types of sheet products. Prior to initial use, the dispenser 1 is typically mounted by attaching its back surface to a building wall using any suitable attachment means (eg screws).

[0044] The dispenser 1 comprises a housing 2 for containing a source of sheet products 7 . Housing 2 may be constructed of metal, plastic or any other suitable solid material and may have various shapes. The housing 2 may comprise a cover 21 and a base part 22 ,...

Abstract

A sheet product dispenser (1), comprising a housing (2) for accommodating a source of a sheet product (11) and a dispenser opening (4) for dispensing the sheet product, wherein the dispenser opening (4) is provided in a rotatable dispensing member (5), rotation of the rotatable dispensing member (5) is restricted to one rotating axis (51), the dispenser opening (4) is offset from the rotating axis (51) of the rotatable member (5), and wherein rotation of the rotatable dispensing member (5) results from a lateral force applied by a pulled sheet product strip onto the dispenser opening (4) such that the dispenser opening (4) moves as far as possible into a pulling direction so as to minimize an angle between the pulling direction and a dispensing direction (42) of the dispenser opening (4).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a sheet product dispenser for dispensing a sheet product, such as a sheet paper towel for use in bathrooms, public restrooms, etc., as a strip of sheet product. In particular, the invention relates to measures concerning the dispensing of sheet products via a dispenser opening. Background technique [0002] Manually operated sheet product dispensers are typically used to dispense strips of sheet product like paper sheets (eg, paper towels, facial tissues, etc.). Such sheet article strips differ very much in properties such as thickness and surface roughness, so that the sheet articles differ greatly in their sliding properties and their tensile strength when used in conjunction with the provided dispenser. [0003] Dispensers typically include a housing in which a source of sheet product (eg, a roll of paper or a stack of continuous paper strips) is housed. Where the source of sheet product is a continuous s...
