Abstract: Disclosed herein is a plastic wall-mounted dispenser primarily for coreless rolled sheet material and in which the plastic material, typically polypropylene, from which the dispenser is made is somewhat yieldable under stress. The dispenser is mounted in cantilevered relationship to the wall and the weight of the dispenser and its contents and pressures exerted thereagainst by the act of dispensing sheet material therefrom causes stresses which tend to twist the dispenser and open the latches by which the base and cover sections of the dispenser are latched together. To rigidify the structure, the base portion of the dispenser is formed in the shape of a hollow truncated pyramid which gives it an inherently strong beam configuration. The cover portion may also be formed in part in the shape of a hollow truncated pyramid.

Abstract: This invention provides a device for dispensing flexible sheets of absorbent paper or other fiberous material. The sheets are preferably end-wrap papers used in the art of cosmetology and particularly for permanently setting waves in hair. The device employs a container with a slit in the top. The preferred device is of triangular cross-section having a width less than the width of a given end-wrap sheet. The end wraps are withdrawn from the container through the slit such that, the removal of one end wrap causes the next lower end wrap to be partially withdrawn through the slit. The container can be removably fastened to a wrist bracelet which is adjustable to fit a user's arm.

Abstract: A dispenser for elongate thin flexible articles that are stacked within a cartridge package is comprised of a cartridge holder to be vertically positioned and having a front access door and interior projections whereby a cartridge may be placed in the holder with the door open and maintained in a predetermined vertical position within the holder after the door is closed. The cartridge is provided with an opening at its lower end and the holder is provided with an opening at its lower end shaped to prevent the removal of an article unless it is gripped and flexed to conform to the opening.
