  • Patent number: 7066070
    Abstract: A machine for dispensing a strip of material comprises a housing accommodating an internally hollow drum with a longitudinal slit which accommodates an articulated cutting device, and two end shields of articulated design to accommodate a reel holder which supports a reel of wipe material. The drum is associated with means of starting, and a load button. The machine is distinctive in that it includes a device for monitoring and repositioning the reel of wipe material which comes into action once during each revolution of the drum. The device being designed on the drum and having localized contact with the reel once during each revolution of the drum and causing said reel to be repositioned.

  • Patent number: 7036764
    Abstract: A dispenser has an autonomous unit comprising: a roll dispenser for dispensing a roll of material, a cutting drum, and side panels. A rear profile of the side panels comprises an edge and corresponds to an internal profile of a case. A lower part of a lower face of said edge extends into a tongue which can be locked and positioned in a housing. The housing is formed by the front part of the base wall of the case for rails, which are used to position the lower edges of the side panels. The upper parts of the side panels are formed with an elastic tongue. Each tongue receives a shaped locking tab which is positioned behind tabs that form hooks on a rear face of the case.

  • Patent number: 6676067
    Abstract: A reel-holder flange in a dispensing machine for wipe material includes a frame which accommodates a protective cover. The frame has two flanges between which a reel of material, a drum which accommodates a cutting device and any other components are mounted. The reel-holder flanges each accommodate an end fitting which accommodates a core of the reel. An upper part of one of the flanges accommodates a shaft which supports an end fitting. The end fitting accommodates an O-ring seal which protrudes and cooperates which the core of the reel. An elastic return means is disposed between the base of the flange or an associated connecting spacer bar between the flanges in order to fulfil an anti-loop function by cooperating with means for tensioning the return means.
