  • Patent number: 4417670
    Abstract: A device for dispensing tissue paper and similar sheet material, such as hair end-wrap papers used in the beauty and cosmetology profession. A pick-up assembly is mounted on an essentially rectangular container for a stack of tissue paper or similar sheet material. The pick-up assembly is comprised of a pick-up head having an adhesive secured thereto for contacting the top sheet of the stack, a rigid shaft connected to the pick-up head, a coil spring having one of its ends fitted over the rigid shaft and the other of its ends rigidly connected at a positive angle on a top center location of one of the ends of the container, and a spring cover. When the user of the device presses the pick-up head downward, the coil spring bends until the adhesive on the pick-up head contacts the top sheet of the shaft and separates and lifts the top sheet from the stack as the coil spring straightens to return the pick-up head to its original position.
