  • the dispenser must be capable of being resealed after a new supply of moist tissue has been added to the dispenser. Since the moist tissue normally is used in the bathroom, it would desirable to provide a means for storing the dispenser which cooperates with conventional bathroom fixtures such a spindle upon which a roller of dry toilet paper wound about a hollow core is stored.
  • Such a storage means would provide the user with a convenient choice of dry or moist tissue.

  • This invention provides a dispenser for moist tissue formed of a housing shaped to retain a roll of moist tissue.
  • the housing is generally cylindrical and has a dispensing slot through which a leading edge of the moist tissue extends.
  • the dispenser includes hanging means for hanging it from a fixed substrate such as a room wall or a spindle in a manner to position the dispensing slot at least about 75% of the diameter of the housing below a top surface of the housing.
  • the roll of moist tissue is positioned within the housing so that it is unrolled from a position adjacent a bottom surface of the housing and through the dispensing slot.
  • the dispensing slot is provided with two spaced apart flanges through which the leading edge of the tissue extends.
  • a top flange also can be provided with a second slot to expose a portion of the moist tissue in the dispenser so that it can be easily dispensed by the user.
  • the second slot can be covered by a cover hinged to the top flange until use of the dispenser is effected by the user thereby to limit evaporation of liquid from the moist tissue.
  • the hanging means can be arms which also secure two sections of the housing together to seal the roll of moist tissue from the surrounding atmosphere.
  • sealing can be effected with a plate which, together with the housing, provides a means for hanging the housing for use.
