  • the dispenser for wiping paper, paper towels, paper toilet is referenced as a whole by (1). He understands so known a casing (2) with a bottom wall (2a), two lateral wings (2b) and a base wall (2c). Said walls and wings are arranged to allow the mounting the reel holder (3) of the reel of wound material (4), the drum (5) distributing and cutting paper according to the determined format.
  • the housing is made in one piece from a rigid plastic material and is likely to receive a cover (6) hinged to the housing and ensuring the protection of different mechanisms and components, with locking means of the type key (7) on the known type housing.
  • the casing (2) is thus arranged, on its lateral wings, in the upper part of these, with two tabs (2d) overlapping, and being separated from the central part of said wings by a slot (2e) or cut allowing their give a relative elasticity of spacing for the engagement of the coil (4) wiping material.
  • Said tabs (2d) can be arranged with discs (2f) allowing the positioning of the mandrel around which is mounted and wound up the material reel, i.e. the discs (2f) include an opening (2g) for the passage and introduction of inserted tip tips in the aforementioned mandrel.
  • the wings (2b) are arranged to allow positioning and rotation of the drum (5) receiving the cutting device (8) with blade (8a).
  • the drum can be of the type of those described in the various prior patents of the applicant, in particular patent FR 2723303.
  • the drum (5) established in the form of a cylinder, is mounted by its axis ends (5a) on the lateral wings (2b) of the casing, while an operating button (9) is associated with one of the ends of the drum to allow its rotation in order to load the device.
  • the cutting device with blade was previously described in the French patent no.2723932.
  • the blade holder (8b) is moved using a rack mechanism (10-11) arranged respectively in (10) on the drum and in (11) on the side wing in manhole cover allowing an output of the blade and instant cutting of the strip of paper drawn.
  • the drum (5) is arranged for example in the configuration described in patent FR n ° 2723303, presenting in its middle part (5b), a support area for the drawn strip of paper. Said area includes a gripping surface established in any suitable manner.
  • the drum advantageously has, between its flanges (5v1-5v2) of ends forming disc and its middle part (5b), wide notches (5d) established on a part of its periphery, the other being full to allow the paper to be drawn in possibly oblique.
  • a pulley (12) capable of receiving a connecting belt (13), itself connected to another fixed pulley (14) arranged on a gantry (15) articulated whose function and characteristics will be specified in the following description.
  • the latter can be arranged as described, or be full without indentation.
  • the dispensing apparatus comprises a carrier means constituted by an oscillating gantry (15) arranged to receive a pressure roller (16) capable of being in contact with the coil (4) to participate by a pressure and braking effect on the coil against the paper when the latter is tensioned to facilitate and allow the cutting of the paper by the cutting device integrated in the drum.
  • a carrier means constituted by an oscillating gantry (15) arranged to receive a pressure roller (16) capable of being in contact with the coil (4) to participate by a pressure and braking effect on the coil against the paper when the latter is tensioned to facilitate and allow the cutting of the paper by the cutting device integrated in the drum.
  • Said gantry (15) is thus arranged in a U-shaped configuration with two arms (15a) parallel to each other and also parallel to the lateral wings (2b) of the casing, its arms being secured by a spacer plate (15b) and an axis carrier (15e) of the pressure roller (16).
  • the free ends (15c) of said arms (15a) have a configuration in rings to fit and surround on cylindrical surfaces (17) formed on the wings (2b) of the housing around the zones positioning the axis ends (5a) of the drum (5).
  • Portico (15) can thus oscillate relative to said drum (5).
  • anchoring points (18) On the rings (15c) of the ends of the arms are arranged anchoring points (18) allowing the fixing return springs (19) which will be described later.
  • the carrier axis (15th) is mounted to rotate freely on the gantry between said arms and it receives in its middle part fixedly the pressure roller (16) which is likely to come to bear against the reel of material (4) disposed on the reel holder.
  • Said carrying axis (15th) is arranged at one of its ends to receive a fixed pulley (14) arranged in the plane of the complementary pulley (12) formed on the drum, while the aforementioned connecting belt (13) provides the junction between them.
  • the rotation of the drum during the manual pulling movement of the strip of paper causes the rotation of the support axis of the pressure roller and so pebble.
  • the gantry (15) thus described is arranged internally on its arms (15a) with shapes (20) established in the form of cradles (20a) or end caps (20b) allowing the positioning of the finishing roller releasing the upper spool holder for the installation of a new spool material.
  • the device distributor includes, on its front part, an articulated flap (21), the lower ends have fingers (21a) which engage on the part lower front of the device housing through suitable openings (22).
  • This flap established over the entire width of the casing, is arranged on its inner face with anchor points (23) of two springs (19) returning by a end (19a), while the other end (19b) has been fixed to the zones in projection (15d) established on the rings of the portico.
  • Said component (21) is therefore in a normal situation, capable of being recalled towards inside the casing by the return effect of the springs (19).
  • the shutter is arranged in its upper part with branches (21b) whose ends form hooks (21c) allowing engagement and fixing by clipping of a roller presser (24), which is likely to come opposite and contact on the drum.
  • Said pressure roller (24) is thus by its mounting in slight distance from said flap by showing a window (25) for allow the paper strip to pass and allow it to be wrapped around of the drum.
  • the pressure roller (24) thus also acts as a reference.
  • the pressure roller (24) has in its middle part a recess (24a) allowing the positioning of a paper guide (26).
  • the latter presents a form (26a) clipping onto said pressure roller, while its end front (26b) is shaped like a swan neck to fit around the drum in the middle part of it to guide the paper, as shown in figure 3 of the drawings.
  • the casing receives a complementary and known roller safety device (28) preventing fingers from entering the device while leaving free the exit of the paper.
  • a profile (29) is molded on the base wall of the housing. opposite the middle part of the drum and is an extension of the paper guide (26) to allow the paper to pass through and out of the device.
  • FIG. 5 thus shows a drum of larger diameter allowing the distribution of paper format of greater length.
  • the flap remains in elastic support on the drum in a position which is substantially more apart than previously.
  • the dispensing device thus designed is particularly advantageous in that it allows, by the relationship of the elastic return between the gantry (15) and the flap (21), constant support of the pressure roller on the reel of material, and a positioning of said flap suitable for any drum diameter.
  • the establishment of the material reel causes the tilting of the gantry crankcase (15) towards the bottom with a tensioning of the springs (19).
  • the progressive unwinding of the spool gradually raises the gantry, the pressure roller (16) constantly resting on the spool, thus preventing the formation of a loop and also ensuring the braking of the paper for its cutting.
  • the strip of paper dispensed is doubly braked by the supports of the roller (16) on the spool and of the pressure roller on the drum, thus controlling the tensioning of the paper and ensuring cutting of the paper in the best conditions, all avoiding loop formation.
  • the flap (21) in a fixed position relative to the casing of the device.
  • the flap has in extension side branches (30) which come attach to the side wings of the housing by means of pins (31) in suitable openings (32).
  • the flap (21) is thus oriented in a position such that the pressure roller (24) associated therewith is moved away from the drum in used only for tape return.
  • the braking of the paper is provided exclusively by the pressure roller on the spool.
  • the receiving drum of the cutting device can be designed in any suitable way as needed.
  • the forms established on the gantry allowing the reception of the finishing roller can be made in the form of cradles, as shown for example figure 4 of the drawings, or be established in the form of deviating tips laterally by elasticity of their support against the swinging arms.
  • the dispenser as described thus responds very satisfactorily to the needs observed and in particular to the distribution and cutting of paper thick, in all directions of pull of the paper strip.
