Patent ID: 6905025

Claim:
A container for a stack of interfolded tissue-sheets (T), said container having a generally planar top wall and a bottom wall and side walls connecting said bottom wall with said top wall and an opening provided in at least said top wall for the removal of said tissue-sheets (T) from the container, said stack (T) of interfolded tissue-sheets being placed in said container with at least a pair of edges of a lowermost tissue-sheet placed on said bottom wall and an uppermost tissue-sheet (T 1 ) placed near or in contact with the top wall and adjacent to the opening in the top wall, said opening being provided with projections for presenting the tissue; said projections being elongated and extending in-between each other from opposite sides (x, y) of the opening in a first, inactive position, such that a projection from one side is adjacent to a projection from an opposite side, wherein adjacent projections are spaced apart both in the first, inactive position, in which the projections are substantially in the same plane as the top wall, and in a second, active position, in which the projections are raised and impart a primary wave-shape to a tissue sheet in a presentation position, the opening has a main axis with a predetermined curvature, which opening imparts a secondary wave-shape to said tissue sheet in the presentation position when the projections are in the second, active position, the curvature of the main axis has a substantially closed circular shape, with the ends of the opening placed at a short distance from each other, and the circular main axis encompasses an arc of up to 300°.
