TOWEL CABINET.
Application filed October 14, 1921. Serial No. 507,598.
To all 'whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, Go'r'rrnm OLSON, a citizen of the United States, resident of Minneapolis, county of Hennepin, State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Towel Cabinets, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my invention is to ,provide a cabinet of simple, inexpensive construction wherein a roll or bolt of clean toweling may be placed, with the clean web in convenient position to be grasped by the user, with means for automatically checking the delivery of the clean web when a predetermined length has been drawn out.
The inventlon consists generally in various constructions and combinations, all as hereinafter described and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying part of this specification, y
Figure 1 1s a vertical sectional view lthrough a cabinet embodying my invention, Figure 2 is a sectional view on the line 2--2 of Figure l,
Figure 3 is a detail sectional view, showina modied construction,
- Inv the top of the cabinet is a feed roll 8 over which the web of clean toweling passes and down through a space9 between the box 4 and a front panel l10 which closes the upper portion of the cabinet. Beneath this panel ano ening is rovided through which the user o the towe may reach the depending web and pull it to the front of the cabinet. The 4roll 8 has a cam 11 on one end, provided with a shoulder 12 and a roll 13 is mounted in the wall of the cabinet near the feed roll 8 and is provided with a dog 14 to ride on the periphery of the cam 11 during the feed of the towel and' drop by gravity out of contact with said cam when the pull on the towel is released, the friction of the web of toweling on thesurfaceof the roll 13 being suiiicient to lift the dog from its depressed inactive position to a point where it will contact with the stop 12 and positively check revolution of the feed roll and further feed of the towel. Slippage of the web of towel on the feed roll is prevented by a peripheral surface 15 of rubber, sand paper, or other suitable material.
In Figure 3 I have shown slots 16 in the side wall of the cabinet, and a bar 17 that is mounted to slide vertically in said slots and is provided with a lower surface 18 for contact with the web of toweling, the pull of the web thereon operating to raise the bar vertically in said slots and. position the dog 19 to engage the stop on the cam and check movement of the feed roll.
In Figure 5 I have shown another modification which consists in arranging the box 20 for the clean towel roll in the top of the cabinet and providing a door 21 in the front through which access may be had to the box. A floor 22 supports the roll and -a gap 23 provided between this floor and the rear wall of the box allows the towel to be fed therethrough to the rolls beneath. The stop device corresponds to the one shown in Figure 1, except that a pin 24 is mounted in the' wall of the cabinet to engage the dog and limit its downward movement when the pull of the towel is released. The clean towel passes down under the roll 13 and over the feed roll 8 in the manner shown with reference to Figure 1.
In Figure 6 another modification is shown, which consists in providing a metal casing 25 having a container 26 in the top thereof, hinged at its lower forward portion 27 and adapted to swing outwardly on this hinge and allow the insertion of the roll of toweling. A rear wall 28 is provided over which the web of toweling passes to the feed roll supported beneath the tilting container.
This feed roll corresponds substantially to the one shown in Figure 5. The web of clean toweling passes through the gap between the rear wall 28 and the wall of the casing 25 and when a predetermined len h of the clean towel has been delivered the o will become operative and lock fthe fee roll against further rotary movement;
I claim as my invention: 1. A towel cabinetcomprising a casing having a receptacle forA theme11Y of clean toweling, a feed roll over whichthe web of toweling passes; said feed rollhaving a stop thereon, a roll mounted tobe engaged by the web `of toweling and' having a dog'thereon to ride onl said feed roll and-i engage vsaid stop, pull of the user on the towel moving said dog to` engage said' feed roll and release of the towel by the use r allowing said dog to become disengaged from said feedgroll, said dog being arranged between said feed roll and the roll of clean toweling and actuated positively with each pull of the user on the towel. i
2.'A towel cabinet comprising a casing, a feed roll journalled in said cabinet and having a friction surface over which a web of toweling may pass, a cam fixed to one ing the end engageable by the shoulder of l the cam upon'the finger being raised by rotation of the guide roll upon delivery movement of the toweling web.
`In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 8th' day of October, 1921.
GOTTFRU) OLSON.
