Abstract:
A dispenser for storing and dispensing multiple rolls of sheet material is described. The rolls are held in place within the interior space of the housing by a pair of spindle holders. The housing front cover has an opening and a slidable door disposed therein to provide access to the rolls. A restricting member is movably coupled to the housing interior and biased to move in a direct towards an outmost winding of a roll. As the roll is dispensed, the restricting member moves out of the pathway of the door, eventually allowing a user to slide the door across the opening so that a second roll may be accessed.

Claim (Index 1):
A dispenser for dispensing rolls of sheet material, comprising:\n a housing having an interior space; a first pair of spindle holders disposed in a first portion of the interior space and configured to removably receive a first spindle; a second pair of spindle holders disposed in a second portion of the interior space and configured to removably receive a second spindle; wherein the first pair of spindle holders defines a first axis about which the first spindle rotates, and the second pair of spindle holders defines a second axis about which the second spindle rotates; an opening sized and dimensioned to provide access to the interior space; a sliding door disposed in the opening of the housing that slides across the opening between a first position and a second position; wherein, in the first position, the door allows access to the first portion of the interior space and limits access to the second portion of the interior space; wherein, in the second position, the door limits access to the first portion of the interior space and allows access to the second portion of the interior space; and a first restricting member disposed in the interior space of the housing and biased to rotate about a third axis such that (i) a first end of the first restricting member rotates towards the first axis and (ii) a second end of the first restricting member rotates away from the first axis and out of a pathway of the sliding door.
