ABSTRACT:
A towel roll holder and towel dispenser includes a housing for retaining a roll of toweling. The housing is affixed to a support surface, and easily opened or removed for replacement of the roll. In one embodiment, Velcro strips mounted on the support surface releasably engage oppositely configured Velcro strips mounted on an outwardly extending flange on the base of the housing. In another embodiment, magnetic strips or ferromagnetic material mounted on the support surface releasably attach to complementary strips on the housing flanges. In another embodiment, one side or end of the housing base flange is hinged to the support surface, and the opposite side or end of the housing base flange is releasably attached to the support surface with Velcro or magnetic (or ferromagnetic) strips as referred to above, or a rotatable latch. Towels may be dispensed from a narrow end of a cone-shaped nozzle on the end of the housing, or through a slot in a housing wall.
