Definitions
- the present invention concerns a dispenser, to which hand towels as sheets, especially as folded sheets, are stacked, having the sheets in the horizontal direction, and the towel sheets are taken from a slot in the lower part of the dispenser by catching the lowest sheet of the stack through the slot.
- the towel sheets are manufactured traditionally of a suitable paper, porous and absorbent
- the sheet stack is accommodated in a vertical housing forming a basic part of the dispenser, the horizontal cross section corresponding essentially to the size of the sheets or the folded size of the sheets in the stack.
- the horizontal cross-section is slightly bigger than the size of the sheets, whereby the sheet stack can lower when the sheets are taken into use.
- the dispenser is refilled with towel sheets either through an openable front wall or an openable lid portion.
- a problem with this kind of a towel sheet dispenser of prior art is the amount of the sheets that can be loaded to the dispenser.
- the weight of a full-height stack in the dispenser causes a compression load to the lower part of the stack, that impedes the removal of the lowest sheet under the stack through the opening.
- US 2004/0159670 A1 discloses a dispenser of sheets stacked inside a compartment, such as a vertical one, with a dispensing slot and provided with means for slowing the advance of the stack of sheets.
- This dispenser is characterized in that such means are represented by flexible elements mounted so as to project into the compartment, elements on which the sheets rest.
- the flexible elements are made up of fibers and form brushes.
- the elements may also be in the form of flexible blades or that of the coils of a spring.
- Figure 1 shows a dispenser in accordance with the invention, having the front wall removed
- Figure 2 shows a dispenser loaded with sheet towels.
- the basic part of the dispenser is formed in a traditional way by a frame housing 1 designed to be fixed to the place of use of the dispenser, for example on the wall of a room.
- the frame housing defines a vertical space having a width corresponding to one dimension of the sheets, and a depth in turn corresponding to the opposite dimension of the sheets, or the corresponding dimension of the sheet having the sheet folded in an appropriate way.
- This space is loaded with the sheets to be used, for example the paper hand towels in a way shown by Figure 2 , into a stack 2 formed by the horizontal sheets.
- the loading can be performed through an openable front wall or alternatively through an openable lid part.
- fins 3 mounted onto both opposite side walls of the housing.
- the projection of these fins from the inner wall of the housing is dimensioned so that they support the side edges of the sheet stack, whereby the high sheet stack does not create too strong compression load to the lower part of the sheet, whereby the lowest sheet to be taken through the opening 4 at the lower part of the dispenser can be removed without problems.
- the fins 3 on the inner side walls of the housing are placed with an even distribution substantially over the total length of the side walls.
- the fins can be located with alternating distribution, whereby the distribution in the upper part of the dispenser is denser than that in the lower part.
- the scope of protection of the invention also covers an embodiment, wherein only the upper part of the dispenser is provided with the fins, the stack of the lower part lowering as usual with a distance to the side walls of the dispenser, and the lower part of the stack remains more uniform by construction.
- the fins are mounted deviating from the horizontal direction, parallel with each other, inclined towards a back wall 5 of the housing. With this inclination it is possible to have influence on the positioning of the sheets in the stack, in other words in the shown embodiment the stack is carried through touching against the back wall of the housing.
- This arrangement provides a certain degree of freedom for the dimensions of the sheet in the direction of depth of the housing, so that the stack stays uniform, even though the dimension of the sheets in that direction were somewhat smaller than the depth of the housing.
- the sheets are made to set in an advantageous position to be drawn out in the vicinity of the opening 4.
- a dispenser in accordance with the invention provides in the above mentioned way the use of a higher housing 1 having a bigger batch refilling capacity.
- sheet material can be used having a lower self-supporting strength (stiffness), in other words, the material can be softer and correspondingly more absorbent.

Description
- The present invention concerns a dispenser, to which hand towels as sheets, especially as folded sheets, are stacked, having the sheets in the horizontal direction, and the towel sheets are taken from a slot in the lower part of the dispenser by catching the lowest sheet of the stack through the slot. The towel sheets are manufactured traditionally of a suitable paper, porous and absorbent The sheet stack is accommodated in a vertical housing forming a basic part of the dispenser, the horizontal cross section corresponding essentially to the size of the sheets or the folded size of the sheets in the stack. The horizontal cross-section is slightly bigger than the size of the sheets, whereby the sheet stack can lower when the sheets are taken into use. The dispenser is refilled with towel sheets either through an openable front wall or an openable lid portion.
- A problem with this kind of a towel sheet dispenser of prior art is the amount of the sheets that can be loaded to the dispenser. The weight of a full-height stack in the dispenser causes a compression load to the lower part of the stack, that impedes the removal of the lowest sheet under the stack through the opening.

US 2004/0159670 A1 discloses a dispenser of sheets stacked inside a compartment, such as a vertical one, with a dispensing slot and provided with means for slowing the advance of the stack of sheets. This dispenser is characterized in that such means are represented by flexible elements mounted so as to project into the compartment, elements on which the sheets rest. In one embodiment the flexible elements are made up of fibers and form brushes. The elements may also be in the form of flexible blades or that of the coils of a spring. - Said packing problem of the stack can be significantly improved by means of a dispenser in accordance with the present invention, the essential characteristics thereof being stated in the enclosed claim 1.Characteristics of an alternative embodiment of the invention is included in the
dependent claim 2. - The invention will be described in more detail by means of the enclosed drawings,
whereFigure 1 shows a dispenser in accordance with the invention, having the front wall
removed, and
Figure 2 shows a dispenser loaded with sheet towels. - The basic part of the dispenser is formed in a traditional way by a
frame housing 1 designed to be fixed to the place of use of the dispenser, for example on the wall of a room. The frame housing defines a vertical space having a width corresponding to one dimension of the sheets, and a depth in turn corresponding to the opposite dimension of the sheets, or the corresponding dimension of the sheet having the sheet folded in an appropriate way. This space is loaded with the sheets to be used, for example the paper hand towels in a way shown byFigure 2 , into astack 2 formed by the horizontal sheets. The loading can be performed through an openable front wall or alternatively through an openable lid part. For the use of the dispenser it is advantageous, if the biggest possible amount of sheets can be loaded at a time. - For decreasing or avoiding the packing problem caused by the sheet stack, there are fins 3 mounted onto both opposite side walls of the housing. The projection of these fins from the inner wall of the housing is dimensioned so that they support the side edges of the sheet stack, whereby the high sheet stack does not create too strong compression load to the lower part of the sheet, whereby the lowest sheet to be taken through the
opening 4 at the lower part of the dispenser can be removed without problems. - In the embodiments of the invention shown in the figures, the
fins 3 on the inner side walls of the housing are placed with an even distribution substantially over the total length of the side walls. Alternatively, the fins can be located with alternating distribution, whereby the distribution in the upper part of the dispenser is denser than that in the lower part. Correspondingly, the scope of protection of the invention also covers an embodiment, wherein only the upper part of the dispenser is provided with the fins, the stack of the lower part lowering as usual with a distance to the side walls of the dispenser, and the lower part of the stack remains more uniform by construction. - The fins are mounted deviating from the horizontal direction, parallel with each other, inclined towards a
back wall 5 of the housing. With this inclination it is possible to have influence on the positioning of the sheets in the stack, in other words in the shown embodiment the stack is carried through touching against the back wall of the housing. This arrangement provides a certain degree of freedom for the dimensions of the sheet in the direction of depth of the housing, so that the stack stays uniform, even though the dimension of the sheets in that direction were somewhat smaller than the depth of the housing. On the other hand, the sheets are made to set in an advantageous position to be drawn out in the vicinity of theopening 4. - A dispenser in accordance with the invention provides in the above mentioned way the use of a
higher housing 1 having a bigger batch refilling capacity. Alternatively or in addition to this property, sheet material can be used having a lower self-supporting strength (stiffness), in other words, the material can be softer and correspondingly more absorbent.
