Abstract
A dispenser for holding and dispensing sheets of paper from paper rolled on a tubular core, including a base member by which the dispenser may be attached to a wall and first and second rigid support arms at each end of the base member providing a pair of inclined openings extending upwardly from the base when the base is mounted on a vertical wall. A spindle member is insertable through the tubular core on which the paper is rolled. Opposite ends of the spindle are receivable in a corresponding one of the inclined openings allowing the spindle and rolled paper to move by gravity against the base member but permitting sheets of paper to be dispensed therefrom.

A dispenser for holding and dispensing sheets of paper from paper rolled on a tubular core, said dispenser comprising:
- a base member by which said dispenser may be attached to a wall;
- first and second rigid support arms, one at each end of said base member, each of said support arms comprising a pair of parallel wire members, an upper one above a lower one, extending upwardly from said base member and providing therebetween an inclined opening extending upwardly from said base when said base is mounted on a vertical wall;
- and
- a spindle member insertable through said tubular core on which said paper is rolled and opposite ends of which are receivable in corresponding inclined openings of said support arms, each of said opposite ends being respectively provided with a groove which is engageable with a corresponding one of said lower wire members to guide said spindle member and said rolled paper thereon within said inclined openings and allowing said spindle member and said rolled paper to move by gravity against said base member but permitting sheets of paper to be dispensed therefrom.
A dispenser for holding and dispensing sheets of paper from paper rolled on a tubular core, said dispenser comprising:
- a base member by which said dispenser may be attached to a wall;
- first and second rigid support arms formed by u-shaped wire members each of which provide between opposing upper and lower legs thereof an inclined opening extending upwardly from said base when said base is mounted on a vertical wall;
- and
- a cylindrical spindle member insertable through said tubular core on which said paper is rolled and opposite ends of which are receivable in corresponding inclined openings of each of said support arms, each of said opposite ends of said spindle member being respectively provided with a circumferential groove which is engageable with a corresponding lower leg of one of said u-shaped support arms to guide said spindle member and said rolled paper thereon within said inclined opening and allowing said spindle member and said rolled paper to move by gravity against said base member but permitting sheets of paper to be dispensed therefrom.
