ABSTRACT:
A paper roll dispenser which permits easy roll replacement while presenting a decorative appearance is provided for dispensing a roll of paper such as toilet tissue, paper towels or the like. The roll dispenser comprises a bracket having two generally parallel elongated support arms extending therefrom in a direction generally perpendicular to a front face of the bracket such that each support arm is free to rotate about its arm axis. When the paper roll dispenser is in an operative position, a spindle having one end attached to one of the support arms rotatably supports the roll of paper between the support arms. The roll is replaced by rotating the one support arm about its arm axis and thereby moving the spindle into a position wherein it projects generally away from the other support arm whereupon a roll supported by the spindle can be replaced. A stop tab protruding from the front face of the bracket engages an inboard face of the one support arm to limit rotation of that support arm when the spindle is projecting away from the other support arm for roll replacement. Fasteners, such as screws, used to attach the bracket to a support surface are concealed behind the support arms when the support arms are rotated to their operative positions.
