Abstract
An apparatus for dispensing absorbent sheet products includes a store with an absorbent web which is to be dispensed; a conveying mechanism for feeding the absorbent web; a severing mechanism for severing the web so as to form absorbent sheet products; a first collecting mechanism in direct contact with at least one of a roller of the conveying mechanism and the severing mechanism for collecting negative electrical charges; a second collecting mechanism in direct contact with the absorbent web for collecting positive electrical charges from the web; and a conductive material in direct contact with the first collecting mechanism and the second collecting mechanism. The conductive material, the first collecting mechanism, and the second collecting mechanism are configured such that the negative electrical charges of the first collecting mechanism and the positive electrical charges of the second collection mechanism are mutually cancelled.
