1. A fabric towel dispenser mounted on a wall surface, comprising:
a main housing mounted on said wall surface and having a receiving compartment, and a dispensing opening which is substantially vertically to the said wall surface communicating with said receiving compartment, said receiving compartment being adapted for receiving a roll of unused towel sheet which is substantially vertical to the said wall surface;
a used towel supporting shaft extending perpendicular to said wall surface and being mounted in said main housing for supporting a roll of used towel sheet;
a dispensing roller supported in said main housing for driving said unused towel sheet out to be dispensed out of said dispensing opening;
a driving assembly mounted in said receiving compartment and connected to said used towel supporting shaft and said dispensing roller for sequentially driving said unused towel sheet to pass through said dispensing opening for dispensing, and to drive said used towel sheet to be retracted and collected by said used towel supporting shaft;
a plurality of guiding members mounted in said receiving compartment for guiding said roll of unused towel sheet to sequentially pass through said dispensing opening and collected by said used towel supporting shaft; and
a partitioning member movably provided in said receiving compartment, said partitioning member being arranged to move in said receiving compartment corresponding to a diameter of said roll of said used towel sheet and said roll of said used towel sheet;
a towel replacement arrangement which comprises a supporting panel which is supported in said receiving compartment, and connected to said used towel supporting shaft, in such a manner that said supporting panel is capable of operating between a locking mode and a releasing mode, wherein in said locking mode, said supporting panel is securely connected to said used towel supporting shaft to lock up a position of said used towel supporting shaft in said receiving compartment, wherein in said releasing mode, said supporting panel is arranged to unlock said used towel supporting shaft for facilitating disposal of said used towel sheet,
wherein said main housing has an upper portion and a lower portion, wherein said used towel supporting shaft is horizontally supported on said upper portion of said main housing in said receiving compartment,
wherein said dispensing roller is mounted in said lower portion of said main housing at a position adjacent to said dispensing opening, said driving assembly comprising a dispensing motor mounted in said receiving compartment and operatively connected to said dispensing roller for driving said dispensing roller to rotate so as to drive said unused towel sheet to be dispensed out of said main housing through said dispensing opening,
wherein said driving assembly further comprises a towel driving motor mounted in said main housing and operatively connected to said used towel supporting shaft for driving said used towel supporting shaft to rotate for retracting used towel sheet thereon,
wherein said supporting panel is pivotally mounted in said upper portion of said main housing at a position corresponding to said used towel supporting shaft such that said supporting panel is capable of being selectively and downwardly flipped to connect to said used towel supporting shaft so as to reinforce said used towel supporting shaft and keep a rotation movement thereof when said supporting panel is in said locking mode, wherein when said supporting panel is in said releasing mode, said supporting panel is upwardly and pivotally flipped away from said used towel supporting shaft so as to facility to take out said roll of said used towel sheet.
