20120104142 | SPINDLE FOR ROLL PAPER PRODUCTS - An expandable and contractible spindle for dispensing rolled paper product, such as toilet paper, is described. The spindle comprises two elongated housings slideably coupled together, and a spring disposed there between. The first housing has a hallow interior portion and a side opening that provides access to the interior. The second housing has at least three sections with different diameters. The first section has a diameter that fits into the hollow interior of the first housing, but is too large to exit the side opening. The second section has a diameter smaller than the side opening. The third section has a diameter larger than the side opening. In this manner, first housing slides with respect to second housing along the length of the second section of second housing. The spring is disposed in the hallow interior, causing the spindle to expand. | 05-03-2012 |

20090236464 | APPARATUS FOR SECURING AND DISPENSING SHEET PRODUCT - A spindle sleeve for a sheet product dispenser is disclosed having a body with a first end, a second end, an inner diameter, an outer diameter, and a central longitudinal axis. The body includes a first portion disposed proximate the first end, a second portion disposed proximate the second end, and a third portion disposed between the first and second portions. The third portion has a U-shaped cutout defining a cantilevered flexible finger oriented to align with the central longitudinal axis, and the first and second portions have unbroken surfaces of the body around the perimeter of the body at the first and second ends, respectively. The finger has a dorsal-type fin extending perpendicular to the outer surface of the finger. | 09-24-2009 |
20090283623 | RECORDING-PAPER-ROLL SUPPORTING DEVICE AND PRINTER - A recording-paper-roll supporting device includes first and second members. The first member includes an insertion portion, a supporting portion at an end of the insertion portion, and a support shaft at an end of the supporting portion. The supporting portion includes an outer peripheral surface, insertion-portion-side cam surfaces at different phases and heights, a collar portion, support-shaft-side cam surfaces at different phases and heights, and a cut section. The second member includes a cylindrical portion, a flange portion, a cam follower, and an engaging claw. When the outer peripheral surface is inserted along the inner peripheral surface and the cam follower and the engaging claw are selectively engaged with the insertion-portion-side cam surfaces and the support-shaft-side cam surfaces, the engaging claw is elastically deformed and generates a reactive force which presses the cam follower so that the second member is positioned on the supporting portion. | 11-19-2009 |
20100078515 | DISPOSABLE END PIECE FOR A ROLL OF WIPING MATERIAL AND APPARATUS FOR DISPENSING WIPING MATERIAL USING ONE SUCH END PIECE - The end piece for a roll of wiping material comprises a cylindrical bearing surface tightly fitted into a core that supports the roll, a transverse flange that protrudes from the cylindrical bearing surface and rests against an opposite-facing surface of the core and the roll, and an axially extending neck that has a head with an internal hole and a hollowed-out section forming a guide groove. The hollowed-out section is located between the head and the cylindrical bearing surface. The head and part of the hollowed-out section are deformable and internally provided with a hole that creates deliberate fragility facilitating, by crushing, their deformation as the core and the end piece are extracted from an accommodating side plate. After the core and end piece have been extracted, the head of the end piece is, in its final state, permanently deformed and cannot be reused. | 04-01-2010 |
