Abstract
The cloth towel dispenser appropriately comprises two towel units, whereof each unit is independently completely operational. The cloth towel (7) is guided over a delivery roller (20) into a draw-in roller (25). On pulling out the towel (7) for forming a towel loop (8), the delivery roller (20) is also rotated, as is the draw-in roller (25) via an envelope drive (32). In the draw-in shaft (30) is located a spring tension accumulator (36), which is tensioned on pulling out. By means of a cam wheel (43) and a catch (44), the length of the towel which can be pulled out is limited. As also a part of the used towel wound from the draw-in roller (25) can be retracted, the length of the clean towel to be pulled out can be kept smaller. After a certain interval a timer releases the catch (44), so that the spring tension accumulator rotates the draw-in roller (25) and the cloth loop (8) is wound up.
