Abstract:
1. A paper holder comprising: an open ended flexible foamed polymer tube encircling first and second telescopic hollow cylinder members having ends which respectfully extend from the axial ends of said tube; said polymer tube is adhered to said first cylinder member; said second cylinder member being telescopically slidable through the bore of said polymer tube and into the bore of said first cylindrical member; said first cylinder member is open on the inside end and supports a pintle on the outside end; said second cylinder member is partially closed on the inside end and supports a pintle on the outside end; a helical compression spring inside said first cylinder member urges both said first and second cylinder members to extend axially; to prevent said cylinder members from coming apart said first cylinder member is provided with an internal annular ridge and said second cylinder member is provided with an external annular ridge for engaging said internal annular ridge; wherein said foamed polymer tube encompasses said first and second cylindrical member and the external diameter of said foamed polymer tube is slightly larger that the internal diameter of the core of a standard roll of toilet paper, so that a standard roll of toilet paper is held in place by the expansive force of said polymer tube.
