ABSTRACT:
A tissue dispenser for dispensing rolls of sanitary tissue wound on a core having a main housing having a rear wall which is adapted to be mounted to a vertical surface. A spindle projects into the main housing substantially perpendicularly from the rear wall to support a roll of tissue within the main housing. A door is pivotally mounted to the front of the main housing such that the roll of tissue can be substantially enclosed therein with an exit port at the base of the dispenser through which the tissue is dispensed. The door includes a knob housing in which a rotatable knob resides. The rotatable knob is spring biased such that it normally resides in a position away from the roll of tissue. Extending from the knob are teeth or cogs. When the tail of tissue is not presented through the exit port of the dispenser, a user can retrieve the tail by depressing the knob against the biasing of the spring such that the teeth or cogs engage the roll of tissue and/or the spindle. By rotating the knob in a depressed position, the roll of tissue also rotated causing tissue to unwind from the roll and descend through the exit port.
