Claim:
Anti-curl control device for automatic dispenser of wipe materials, the dispenser including a housing with lid, a first fixed end plate rotatably supporting a drum incorporating a cutting device, a material reel wound on a core having an end fitting, and a press roller counter-bearing upon the drum, wherein the anti-curl device comprises roller-shaped means having a peripheral surface with protruding gripping means, the roller-shaped means being freely rotatable relative to supporting plates extending from a reel-holder end plate, the reel-holder end plate receiving the end fitting and being flexible relative to the first fixed end plate, the roller-shaped means being angled obliquely relative to the material reel and coming into localized contact along a generatrix with a last turn of the reel to ensure a braking effect, and said roller-shaped means being linked to rotation of the drum by a transmission means which couples the roller-shaped means and the drum together, and the reel-holder end plate being elasticly deflected in order to adjust in position as the reel is unwound, wherein the first end plate fixedly receives the reel-holder end plate allowing the reel-holder end plate a certain flexibility, and a front portion of the reel-holder end plate is connected to the first end plate with securing means, and wherein the reel-holder end plate extends rearwards from the first end plate and has a tall rear portion for receiving a supporting axle of the end fitting and said supporting plates comprise two parallel supporting plates extending from the rear portion between which is positioned the roller-shaped means.
