Application April 20, 1939, Serial No. 268,936
4 Claims.
My present invention relates to holders for rolls of paper webs intended for general use, but especially well adapted for holding rolls of toilet paper.
It is an object of vthisA invention to provide a roll holder that will prevent the spinning of a roll by a quick pull on the free end portion thereof and thereby unwind therefrom more paper than is required resulting in extravagance and waste. A further object of the invention is to provide a roll holder on which a roll of paper may be quickly and easily mounted. A still further object of the invention is to provide a holder for a roll of paper that is extremely simple, of relatively small cost to manufacture and that is rugged in construction and with only a single moving part. A further object of the invention is to provide a roll holder that is easy to keep 'clean and that has a neat and pleasing appearance.
To the above end, generally stated, the invention consists of the novel `construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and defined in the claims.
In the accompanying drawing, which illustrates the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a view in end elevation showing my improved roll holder on which is mounted a roll of toilet paper;
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of the same with some parts broken away and sectioned and with other parts shown by means of broken lines;
Fig. 3 is a Iplan View of the roll holder with the roll of toilet paper removed therefrom;
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary View partly in plan and partly in section taken on the line 4 4 of Fig. 2;
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary view partly in front elevation and partly in section taken on the irregular line 5-5 of Fig, 1;
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary detail view partly in side elevation and partly in section taken on the line 6-6 or Fig. 5;
Fig. '7 is a fragmentary View partly in plan and partly in section taken on the line 'I-1 of Fig. 2;
and
Fig. 8 is a fragmentary detail view partly in side elevation and partly in section taken on the line 8-8 of Fig. 4.
The letter A indicates a roll of toilet paper wound on a paper cylinder or core B.
The improved holder, in part, is formed from a single round rod folded upon itselfl to form in part, at its folded end, an upright wall bracket 9 the members of which are in downwardly diverging relation. The members of the rod, at the lower end of the wall bracket 9, are bent horizontally forward in outwardly diverging relation to afford a pair of supporting arms IIl. At the outer ends of the arms I the members of the rod are bent upwardly to a'ord a pair of upright parallel prongs II.
The wall bracket further includes a face plate I2y having a rearwardly extended marginal ange I3. This face plate I2 and its ange I3 covers the bracket section 9 formed by the rod. The base of the Wall bracket is horizontal and the sides thereof are in upwardly converging relation and meet in a relatively sharp point at the top of the wall bracket. The face plate I2 and its flange I3 are brazed to the bracket section 9 and the space back of the face plate I2 and above the wall bracket section 9, is filled with metal as indicated at I4.
I'he wall bracket 9-I2 is secured to a wall X by a pair of screws Y which extend through holes Z in said wall bracket. At the lower ends of the prongs I I is a roll support or rest I in the form of a cross-tie member which connects said prongs and holds the same properly spaced. This roll support I5 is made of a quarter round bar the flat side of which is uppermost and has in its end portions holes through which the prongs II project. The roll support I5 rests on the arms III and is rigidly secured thereto and to the prongs I I by brazlng or otherwise. It will be noted that the longitudinal edges of the roll support I5 are relatively sharp.
The roll of toilet paper A rests on the support I5 between the prongs II and is free to turn on a follower member I6 which loosely extends axially through the paper core B.
The follower member I6, is, as shown, a bar that is rectangular in cross-section. This bar I6 is held by the prongs II for raising or lowering movements and which prongs loosely extend through bores I1 in the bar I6. This bar I6 loosely rests on the internal bottom of the paper core B and its greatest width is materially less than the internal diameter of said core.
As the diameter of the roll A diminishes, by the unwinding of the paper thereon, the follower bar I6 slides downwardly on the prongs I I, under the action of gravity and continues to rest on the core B.
During the turning of the roll A about the follower bar I6, by pulling on the free end portion of the paper web to unwind -a section of the same from the roll, said roll is moved with frictional contact transversely on the flat upper face of the supporting bar I5. Also, during the turning of the roll about the follower bar I6 said bar is supported on the lower internal surface of the core B. Obviously, the movement of the turning of the roll A on the supporting bar l5 and the contact of the internal surface of the core B with the follower bar produces sucient drag or friction to prevent the spinning of the roll A.
As the paper is unwound from the roll A sections may be torn therefrom on the customary weakened tearing line formed therein or sections may be torn therefrom on the sharp front longitudinal edge of the support l5.
The drawing illustrates a commercial form of the invention, but it Will be understood that the same is capable of certain modications as to details of construction, arrangement and combination of parts within the scope of the invention herein disclosed What I claim is:
1. A device of the kind described formed in part from a single rod folded upon itself to afford' at its folded end, a Wall bracket, the members of the rod at the Wall bracket being bent to afford a pair of forwardly projecting arms, the members of the rod being again bent at the outer` ends of the arms to afford a pair of upright prongs, a ro11 supporting member connecting the members of the rod at the lower ends of the prongs, and a follower member extending loosely through the core of a paper roll resting on the supporting member and mounted on the prongs for raising and lowering movements, said supporting member and the follower member each being positively held against rotation.
2. The structure dened in claim 1 in which the supporting member is a cross-tie bar having in its end portions holes through which the prongs project, said bar being rigidly secured to the members of the rod.
3. 'Ihe structure dened in claim 1 in which the supporting member is a cross-tie bar having in its end portions holes through which the prongs project, said bar being rigidly secured to the members of the rod and the front upper longitudinal edge of the supporting member being relatively sharp,
4. The structure defined in claim 1 in which the follower member is a bar having in its end portions holes through which the prongs loosely project.
