Abstract
A motor driven spindle assembly for a dispenser includes a spindle that defines an interior volume. A motor is disposed within the interior volume of the spindle and is operable to rotate the spindle. A bracket includes a plate, a first leg, and a second leg. The plate of the bracket is positioned within the interior volume of the spindle. Proximal end portions of the first and second legs are positioned at the plate. A distal end portion of the first leg is positioned within a first opening of a bushing such that the distal end portion of the first leg is slidable within the first opening along a lateral direction. A distal end portion of the second leg is positioned within a second opening of the bushing such that the distal end portion of the second leg is slidable within the second opening along the lateral direction.
