DISPENSER WITH CUT-OFF BLADE/SUPPLY ROLL SPACING ASSEMBLY

摘要

A dispenser for dispensing a length of sheet material from a roll of the sheet material. The dispenser includes a first rotatable hub mounted on a dispenser frame that receives the roll of sheet material around its periphery. A first end of an elongate cut-off blade is attached to the frame so that a user of the dispenser can manually tension sheet material being pulled from the roll around a cutting edge on the blade to sequentially transversely sever the sheet material. A locating hub rotatably mounted on one end of a spacing arm is adapted to be received in the roll of sheet material from its end opposite the first hub. An end of the spacing arm opposite the locating hub is mounted on the cut-off blade to space the cutting edge a predetermined distance from the axis of the roll of sheet material at the second end of the roll of sheet material as the sheet material is sequentially transversely cut along the cutting edge on the blade.
