Abstract: Disclosed is transfer apparatus for use in an embossing dispenser capable of sequentially dispensing primary and secondary rolls of a sheet material. The transfer apparatus includes pivotally mounted transfer linkage which supports a primary roll contacting surface. Bar means attached to the transfer linkage has a comb projecting therefrom with a wing member extending from each end of the bar member. The transfer linkage is biased for rotational movement to maintain the primary roll contacting surface in contact with the primary roll as the primary roll is depleted. This biasing simultaneously rotates the bar means toward the embossing rollers.

Abstract: A dispenser actuator handle including a body member, a first protrusion projecting from the body member, a second protrusion projecting from the body member and disposed below the first protrusion, and a reinforcement rib extending between the protrusions.

Abstract: A multiple roll towel dispenser. The dispenser cabinet has a pair of feed rollers forming a feed roll nip, means for driving one of the feed rollers to dispense web from the cabinet, means in the cabinet for supporting a first roll of web material with its web extended between the feed roll nip, and means for supporting a second roll of web material with its web extended adjacent to the feed roll nip. The dispenser also includes means, contacting the edge of the first roll, having a first position for sensing the diameter of the first roll; means, connected to the sensing means, for biasing the sensing means against the edge of the first roll; biased transfer means for introducing the extended web of the second roll into the feed roll nip; and stop means, connected to the sensing means, the stop means being located to resist motion of the transfer means at a ready position when the edge of the first roll resists movement of the sensing means.
