Patent ID: 11793368

Abstract:
A paper towel dispenser includes two static positions, an “up” position and a “down” position. One embodiment includes an actuator lock component for engaging and displacing sliders. An actuator unlock component is positioned over the actuator lock component. The legs or extensions of the actuator unlock component extend in a downward direction. The body of the actuator is thus positioned above the sliders. The other embodiment includes spring leafs for engaging and displacing the sliders. The actuator is positioned under the spring leafs. The legs or extensions of the actuator extend in an upward direction. The body of the actuator is thus positioned below the sliders. In one embodiment, in the “up” position, the sliders extend outwardly and in the “down” position, the sliders extend inwardly, whereas, in the other embodiment, in the “up” position, the sliders extend inwardly and in the “down” position, the sliders extend outwardly.
