Abstract
One of two mutually engageable portions is mounted on a base and a first rolled paper holding unit is rotatably supported by the base. A second rolled paper holding unit is movable toward the first rolled paper holding unit and is supported by the base to allow rotational movement in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement toward the first rolled paper holding unit. The second rolled paper holding unit has the other of the mutually engageable means which resiliently engages with the one mutually engageable portion and cooperates with the first rolled paper holding unit to hold a rolled paper.
