ABSTRACT:
Towel dispensing apparatus (12) comprises a cabinet (10) to house a roll of clean towelling (14), and a take-up roller (36) in cabinet (10) and onto which the towelling is progressively wound during use of the apparatus. Dispensing of the towelling is controlled by a roller mechanism comprising first and second main towel rollers (28, 40). Each of the main towel rollers comprises a tubular body portion (70) end supports (72, 74) and towel-engageable bands (76, 78) providing a friction surface for gripping engagement with a towel to be dispensed. Bands (76, 78) are of natural rubber and mechanically keyed to roller body portion (70). End supports (72, 74) are one-piece plastic mouldings bonded or welded to the plastics material of body portion (70), thereby providing a greatly simplified structure.
