Various fragrance dispensers are disclosed. The fragrance dispenser can include a core unit that has a connection unit and a control unit. The fragrance dispenser can include a cartridge that is configured to engage with the core unit. The cartridge can include an impeller and a fragrant material. The fragrance dispenser can have a motor that drives the impeller, thereby dispersing the fragrance. The cartridge can be configured to disengage from the connection unit, such as when the cartridge reaches a depleted state.

Fragrance dispensers and methods

Various dispensing systems with drop-down features are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the dispensing system includes a roll support with a sensor and a piston. The sensor can move as the roll decreases in size (e.g., the outside diameter decreases) and can apply a force to the roll. The piston can move to become less engaged with the roll, such as becoming less received in a roll plug or the hollow core of the roll. When the roll has decreased to a threshold size, the piston substantially or fully disengages from the roll and/or the sensor applies a force to dislodge the roll from the roll support. This results in the roll automatically dropping off the roll support. The roll support is thus available to receive a fresh roll.

Dispenser with automatic stub roll drop down

Various consumable material dispensing apparatus including automatic roll transfer features are disclosed. In certain embodiments, the apparatus includes a housing, a roll support assembly, a motor, a roll sensor mechanism, and a controller. The housing can include a cabinet, an interior, and an opening. The roll support assembly can support a plurality of rolls. The motor can rotate the roll support assembly from a first position where a first roll is proximate the opening to a second position where a second roll is proximate the opening. The roll sensor mechanism can detect whether a diameter of the first roll is less than a threshold value when the roll support assembly is in the first position. In response, the controller can instruct the motor to rotate the roll support assembly from the first position to the second position.

Automatic roll transfer dispenser

An apparatus for dispensing consumable material can include a housing, first and second support frames, a mandrel, and a lever. The mandrel can be movably mounted to the support frames between upper and lower positions and configured to hold upper and lower rolls. In some embodiments, when the mandrel is in the upper position, only the lower roll is accessible, and when the mandrel is in the lower position, both of the upper and lower rolls are accessible. The lever can be operatively connected to the first support frame and moveable between first and second positions. In some embodiments, when in the first position, a portion of the lever presents a physical interference that inhibits the mandrel from moving from the upper position to the lower position and, when moved to the second position, the physical interference is removed, thereby allowing the mandrel to move.

Automatic drop-down dispenser

A paper sheet material dispenser apparatus for dispensing paper sheet material from a roll of paper sheet material having a tail portion includes a sensor structure having a light emitter and a light sensor for sensing the absence of a replacement tail portion projecting from a housing exit opening and for activating an electric motor to rotate a roll support drum and cause the replacement tail portion to project from the exit opening.

Electro-mechanical paper sheet material dispenser with tail sensor

Dispenser apparatus for dispensing from a roll of sheet paper product supported by a support arm, a support member pivotally mounted on the support arm and a biasing structure operable to reduce the shock force in the sheet paper product by resisting pivotal movement of the support member.

Roll paper towel or tissue dispenser with spring dampening roll support

A paper toweling dispenser apparatus including damping structure for taking up over-spin slack, including a pivoting paper guide pivotally connected to a fixed paper guide by springs which operate in sequential stages during paper toweling dispensing.

Paper towel dispenser damping system

Apparatus for dispensing paper toweling from a roll of paper toweling includes a rotary damper resisting formation of overspin slack in the paper toweling resulting from a pulling force applied to the paper toweling. Control mechanism changes the rotary damper from an operative condition to an inoperative condition responsive to reduction of the diameter of the roll of paper toweling.

Dispenser apparatus with damper for dispensing paper toweling

Apparatus for dispensing paper toweling from a roll of paper toweling including roll support structure, a rotatable support drum to transport the paper toweling and cause rotation of the roll of paper toweling, and a rotary damper resisting formation of overspin slack in the paper toweling resulting from a pulling force applied to the paper toweling.

A wet wipe dispenser apparatus including a container, a top with a wipe egress opening, a wipe support for holding a stack of wet wipes biased for movement toward the top, and at least one wick in the container for applying moisture to wipes of the stack of wipes.

Wet wipe dispenser

A paper toweling dispenser includes an electric motor driven toweling support roller, a handle for rotating the toweling support roller and a one-way clutch including a stabilized pawl, which allows the handle to rotate the toweling support roller only in a single direction of rotation transporting toweling on the toweling support roller to an exit opening of the dispenser when the electric motor does not drive the toweling support roller.

Multi-function paper toweling dispenser

A paper sheet material dispenser selectively operable to dispense paper toweling or other paper sheet material from a roll of paper sheet material employing a plurality of alternative operational modes.
