Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dispenser according to claim 1 and to a method according to claim 13.
  • a non-contact paper dispenser for drying hands is known ( U.S. -A- 5,452,832 ) which is controlled by photocells.
  • a paper roll In a hinged housing a paper roll is arranged, whose outer end piece is guided in the lower housing part via transport rollers and a cutting device.
  • the power supply of a drive motor When approaching a hand to the dispenser housing, the power supply of a drive motor is activated for a predeterminable time and issued a paper section.
  • the protruding end of the dispenser is manually separated on a serrated knife blade.
  • This dispenser has the disadvantage of a current reel supply, or of the corresponding roll diameter dependent output length of the paper portion and is due Its specific transport and cutting device is not suitable for wet cleaning tissue.
  • a similar donor ( U.S. -A- 5,772,291 ) is powered by photovoltaic cells and is also designed only for the output of absorbent paper.
  • the cleaning tissue there known per se, usually paper or synthetic material which is impregnated with a skin-friendly, also known cleaning liquid remains hygienically stored in the dispenser until the detector reports a need.
  • the activated by the detector drive mechanism then transports the cloth further in the unwinding until the built-in sensor a dividing line and / or perforation ie the unrolling of a portion is detected so that it after further transport, with the drive stopped, in front of the dispenser by manual pulling can be torn off and used without it being touched in any way.
  • the inventive solution allows a very hygienic design of the dispenser and ensures easy operation and economic maintenance.
  • the dividing line or perforation serving as a spoiler edge is located in each case, viewed in the direction of development just before the fictitious contact lines of the two rolls.
  • the fabric web is held securely non-positively; even with a non-axial removal this breaks only at the parting line or perforation whereby a safe portion-wise delivery is guaranteed.
  • the mentioned in the claim detector may be a non-contact proximity switch, infrared detector, a light barrier but also a simple micro-switch, which detects, for example, another process or be actuated by this.
  • control can be implemented with the inclusion of commercially available microprocessors, with appropriate control, monitoring and reporting functions; but in the simplest case, a notoriously known relay circuit already suffices for the control.
  • the sensor is placed in front of or behind the axes of the rollers. If an immediate control of the sensor is selected, this or its associated light guide is on the user side, after the rollers, but if a follow-up time is provided, the sensor is located in front of the rollers.
  • the sensor is formed electro-optical.
  • the embodiment according to claim 4 is very reliable and almost maintenance-free.
  • the contact pressure on the web of coherent cleaning tissue can be increased by the measures according to claim 5 in a simple manner.
  • this can be positioned closer to the axes of the rollers, whereby the strip of material not stored in the cassette can be minimized.
  • the parting line and / or perforation can be partially opened, which facilitates their monitoring and simplifies the tearing of the section again.
  • the variant according to claim 9 is advantageous if the cloth is not or only slightly moist.
  • the sensor can be assigned even closer to the axes of the rollers: A fixed surface but increases the friction on the cloth, what u.a. can lead to a dripping of liquid.
  • the reflective layer according to claim 11 laterally pulled out in strip form on the transport roller, it can be controlled with the same sensor, the speed of the drive.
  • the monitoring of the transport roller with the measures of claim 14 provides a simple function control and can close at a speed drop to a low battery charge; a sudden increase in signal amplitude indicates an empty cassette or a ripped cloth band.
  • the method of claim 15 is particularly advantageous when more than one dispenser is to be used in a predetermined order.
  • This may, for example, be a first dispenser equipped with toilet paper, which activates a second dispenser provided with wet tissue by simply monitoring the removal or rotational movement, by means of the detector mentioned in claim 1, and provides it in the manner described.
  • a dispenser for wet wipes is designated 100 in FIG.
  • the dispenser 100 is arranged on a wall W in the usual way - like a toilet paper dispenser.
  • the dispenser 100 has an upper housing part 1, with a central window 2, behind which a proximity detector for the demand-oriented output of wet tissue T is arranged.
  • a proximity detector for the demand-oriented output of wet tissue T is arranged.
  • the presence of an output-ready wet tissue T can be recognized by an opaque viewing window 3; the output direction is marked with an arrow.
  • the upper housing part 1 projects beyond a lower housing part 4 by a closure 5 can be seen on the right side.
  • a cassette 21, with a supply of wound or folded wet tissue is present, wherein the portion length by a per se known perforation is predetermined.
  • the cassette 21 is made of a thin-walled hard plastic and has peripheral and lateral stiffeners 22 and 23, respectively; a circumferential, the cassette 21 laterally superior support surface 24 fits positively into the lower part 4.
  • a Codier-cam 10 which characterizes the contents of the cassette or indicating.
  • buttons 8 and 9 which rest upon closing of the dispenser 100 on the coding cam 10 and signal its shape.
  • a transport roller 11 can be seen in the lower housing part 4. This has left a large bearing pin 16 with a gear 17 and right, a small bearing pin 19, which pins are fixed in corresponding resiliently designed, split bearings 16 'and 18 respectively. From the main body 14 of the transport roller 11 are friction rings 12, which serve the transport of - not shown here - wet wipe. In addition, punctures 13 in the main body 14 can be seen, which serve to carry out sensors described later.
  • FIG. 3 shows the dispenser Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 with the upper housing part 1 removed, but with an attached drive support 47.
  • a circuit board E is inserted and fixed with brackets 46.
  • the circuit board E carries on its front side the proximity detector, which behind the window 2, see. Fig. 1, is arranged; on the back are all arranged electronic components for the engine control and the monitoring of the wet wipe.
  • the drive support 47 also has two openings 8 'and 9' for a 1st and a 2nd button, which are designed in the form of micro switches, are arranged in the upper housing part.
  • openings 8 'and 9' for a 1st and a 2nd button which are designed in the form of micro switches, are arranged in the upper housing part.
  • breakthroughs 45 can be seen, which serve from joints for mechanical connection with the upper housing part 1.
  • hinges 44 are arranged, which project beyond these and serve as bearings for the upper housing part.
  • In the rear wall 43 are a total of three openings 52, which serve to attach the dispenser to a wall.
  • a cylindrical roller guide 53 which rotatably supports an axial core and wound in the form of a coil of wet tissue.
  • Support surfaces 24 of the cassette 21 are parallel to the rollers 11 and 30 by centering surfaces 41 in the lower housing part 4, see. Fig. 2, positioned.
  • FIG. 4 all of the three openings 52 serving for fixing can be seen in the rear wall 43.
  • the side walls 42 have in the rear, lower corners stiffeners 54, which are designed as indentations. Between the stiffeners 54 is a battery compartment with four batteries B inserted
  • Fig. 6 shows the dispenser 100 in a sectional view, in cooperation of the functional parts.
  • the cassette 21 is divided into two parts and that the wet wipe is dispensed via two sealing discharge lips 26.
  • the coding cam 10 projects out of the lateral surface of the cassette 21 and presses on a first button 8, which in turn is connected to a microswitch on the circuit board E.
  • the button 8 on the one hand determines the presence of a cassette 21 and on the other hand, it can be used in conjunction with a 2.
  • Button 9 also "read in" the quality and / or the capacity of the cassette.
  • the electric motor M is embedded in a recess 29 of the drive support 47, wherein the drive-side engine mount is indicated and designated 28. Before the engine mount 28 is a symbolized gear 27, which serves as a drive pinion for the two rollers 30 and 11.
  • Fig. 6 It can be seen in Fig. 6 are each a section 1 'in the upper housing part 1 and a further cutout 4' in the lower housing part 4, which serve the convenient removal of the T Tuchleinins.
  • additional support surfaces 51 for the cassette 21 can be seen.

  • the electric motor M with its drive-side bearing 28 and its gear 27 is clamped in a motor mount 31 and engages with the gear 27 in another spur gear 15 on the drive roller 30 can be clearly seen on this roller 30, the paired friction rings 34 and through two punctures 13 guided light guides L and L '.
  • a transmitting diode 35 At the upper end of the light guide L is a transmitting diode 35, which sends a light beam S through the light guide L and the case of a non-existent handkerchief T or an existing perforation in the kerchief T as a light beam S 'via the light guide L' to a receiving diode 36th is directed.
  • FIG. 8 The interaction of the drive roller 30 with the transport roller 11 and a wet tissue T guided therebetween are shown in FIG. 8.
  • the light guide L is arcuately guided under the wet tissue T and that in the event of the emergence of per se notoriously known perforation in the kerchief T, in the light guide L 'can pass through a light beam which generates an electrical signal in the receiving diode 36.
  • FIG. 9 An alternative embodiment of the detection of a perforation in the tissue T is shown in FIG. 9.
  • the existing radiant power of the light guide L is dimensioned larger, while the light guide L 'is a conically tapered fiber optic range.
  • FIG. 10 An analogous solution can be seen in the example of FIG. 10.
  • a finger with a convex support surface 38 is provided here.
  • the support surface is provided with a metallic reflective layer 39 and therefore requires an even smaller radiant power; the opened perforation P ', i. the slot can be shorter here.
  • the detail view Fig. 11 shows the cassette 21 in a lateral perspective view before it is inserted into a dispenser.
