ABSTRACT:
A dispenser nozzle for a paper towel container holding a roll of perforated paper towels includes a flange for coupling the nozzle apparatus to the container. A conical funnel is integral with the flange and has an entrance opening adjacent the flange to receive the paper towels therethrough. The other end of the funnel has an exit hole which is smaller than the entrance hole and provides an exit for the paper towels passing through the funnel. The entrance opening and exit opening are dimensioned such that a first paper towel will separate from a following paper towel along the perforation boundary therebetween when a leading portion of the following paper towel has exited from the exit opening in the funnel. Preferably, the exit portion of the funnel includes at least one removable section in order that the nozzle may be adjusted for different sizes of paper towels to be dispensed.
