TOILET-PAPER HOLDER.
- Application filed May 6, 1916.
To all whom it may concern:
Be-it known that I, DENNIS M. MORGAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hawarden, in the county of Sioux and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Toilet-Paper Holders; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention has for its object to provide an extremely simple and highly efficient roller for holding toilet paper, paper towels, and the like, and to such ends, generally stated, the invention consists of the novel devices and combinations of devices hereinafter described and defined in the claims.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a device which will permit the paper to be drawn oif in reasonable, or predetermined lengths, but will prevent waste in the use of thepaper.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a view in side elevation with some parts sectioned, showing the improved holder; and Fig. 2 isa view partly in plan and partly in section on the line w a of Fig. 1.
The numeral 1 indicates a suitable board or support adapted to be secured to a wall or post, or other upright.
The numeral 2 indicates a spindle support shown as formed from a piece of heavy wire bent to form horizontally projecting prongs and a vertical yoke, the latter of which, as shown, is hinged to a plate 3, which, in turn, is rigidly attached to the board or support 1. The ends of the prongs of the spindle support 2 are turned inward to form trunnions 2 that engage seats 4 formed in the ends of the spindle 5. The said spindle 5 may be made of wood or any other suitable material, and its seats that receive the trunnions 2 are located eccentric to its axis. The spindle 5 is formed with a longitudinal groove 6 in which is Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 21, 1916.
Serial No. 95,751.
seated an outwardly spring-pressed clamping bar 7, preferably of metal or other material that is heavier than the material of the roller 5. This clamping bar 7 is preferably located nearly opposite to the trunnion seats 4, and at a point between the said bar 7 and adjacent trunnion seats 4:, the spindle is provided at one end with a projecting stop pin or lug 8.
The numeral 9 indicates a roll of toilet paper which is telescoped with the spindle 5 and is frictional'ly held for rotation therewith by the clamping engagement of the bar 7. The full lines in Fig. 1 show approximately the position in which the spindle and roll will normally hang. When the loose end of the roll 9 is pulled outward or downward, the roll on the spindle will oscillate on the trunnions 2 in the direction of the arrows marked on Fig. 1, until the stop 8 strikes one of the arms of the spindle support 2, and then, of course,
the rotation of the roll and spindle will be stopped and the rolled portion of the paper roll will be torn off, whereupon, the spindle and roll will drop back to their full line positions, Fig. 1. Furthermore, removal of the paper of the roll requires another operation, so that it is not an easy matter to waste the paper. For example, the roll cannot be given a hard pull and set spinning, thereby unwinding a great length of the roll.
Obviously, the trunnions 2 can be sprung into and out of the seats 4, simply by spreading the spring arms of the support 2. The entire device may be made at very small cost and is efficient for the purposes had in view. I
What I claim is:
1. The combination with a bifurcated spindle support, of a spindle eccentrically journaled to the prongs of said support, and an outwardly spring-pressed clamping bar of material heavier than the material of said spindle, seated in said spindle at a point approximately opposite to its pivotal connections to said prongs.
2. The combination with a bifurcated spindle support, of a spindle eccentrically journaled to the prongs of said support, and an outwardly spring-pressed clamping bar of material heavier than the material of In testimony whereof I aflix my signature said spindle, seated in said spindle at a in presence of two witnesses: point approximately opposite to its pivotal connections to said prongs, and the said DENNIS M. MORGAN. spindle having 'a projecting stop normally away from the adjacent arms of said sup- Witnesses:
port but engageable therewith when said J. S. KENNEDY,
spindle is rotated from its normal position. FRED FINNIO.
