BRIEF SUMMARY
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Today the use of paper toweling is widely spread. From a practical point of view it is advantageous to place the paper roll in a holder. There are holders that are fixed on the wall or kept under the cupboard or on the table.
Known are for instance holders, where a pole is fixed to the base, and this pole then forms the center axis of the paper roll. This holder easily tips over and furthermore it is not provided with a brake, in which case the use of both hands is needed for taking a paper. Known also is a holder where, as in the above holder, there is a base and a center pole and on the top of the center pole a plate with a hole into which the center pole fits. This plate has enough weight to have a braking effect on the paper roll. In this holder malfunctions have been observed, it may tip over and the braking system does not always function.
Mainly due to the design of the paper towel and toilet paper holders, the paper rolls for these have been manufactured by rolling paper around a core. However, the core cannot be utilized. Considering the overall manufacturing of toweling and toilet roll paper and the like, the manufacturing of unutilized cores is extensive.
Paper rolls are also manufactured without cores and in this case they are intended to be unwound from the center of the paper roll. However, this results in the paper being twisted like a cord.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In a holder according to this invention dispensing use of paper manufactured with or without cores can easily be done. The material used for the core could be used for the real product, the paper itself.
By using a design according to this invention the paper will, when pulling easily, unwind and break with a little jerk.
The characteristics of the invention appear in the patent claims.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is a side view of a paper roll holder constructed in accordance with the invention;
FIG. 2A is a horizontal section of the holder with a paper roll with a core;
FIG. 2B is a horizontal section of the holder with a paper roll without a core;
FIG. 3 is a horizontal cross-section of the column-like parts;
FIG. 4 is a vertical cross-section of the holder; and
FIG. 5 is the holder shown from above.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The invention comprises a heavy base, part 1 in FIG. 1 to which one or two suitably shaped column-like parts 2a and/or 2b in FIG. 1 are fixed, in between which is a gap x, as shown in FIG. 3. Along the inner edges of parts 2a and 2b there are squared edges, 11a and 11b. In FIG. 3 the outer edges of parts 2a and 2b are provided with suitably shaped cutting edges, 10a and 10b. The invention also comprises a split ring member 3 which at one end is ring-shaped, and at its other end wedge-shaped as shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the ring-shaped portion being slightly bigger than the full paper roll which is mounted in bearings 4a and 4b of parts 2a and 2b in FIGS. 2A and 2B. The invention also comprises a cover 5 spring-mounted in bearings 6a and 6b of parts 2a and 2b to hold the paper roll in its place, especially if the paper roll is not vertical, to which cover a spring 7 (FIG. 4) is fixed. In the cover 5 in FIG. 5 there is an opening 8. In the base 1 as shown in FIG. 4, a spring 9 is fixed. Around the board core 12 of the paper roll 13, the paper 14 is wrapped.
The loading of the roll holder with rolls with a core, as shown in FIG. 2A, is done so that cover 5 and split ring member 3 in FIG. 1 both are lifted up and turned about 180.degree.. After this, paper roll 13 in FIG. 4 will be put into its place so that spring 9 fits into board core 12 as shown in FIG. 4. The paper 14 in FIG. 2A is threaded through gap x between parts 2a and 2b. The opening 8 in cover 5 in FIG. 5 facilitates threading paper 14 through gap x. Finally the split ring member 3 in FIG. 1 and cover 5 will be turned so that they both are resting on roll 13 in FIG. 1.
If the paper roll has no core it is possible to get along only with split ring member 3 in addition to the base 1 and the column-like
