Abstract

A centerflow rolled paper dispenser has a housing containing a spring loaded drawer member that is slidable between an open and a closed position The dispenser includes an upper housing and a support member within said upper housing for supporting a roll of paper. Further, a lower housing is attached to the upper housing. An exit port from said upper housing to said lower housing is provided for release of rolled paper that is dispensed from the center of the roll through a predetermined dispensing orifice. Additionally, the drawer member is in substantially overlapping position with the exit port, the drawer member being spring loaded to bias the drawer member towards the open position to make loading a new roll of paper into the dispenser more convenient. A rotatable disk is provided with orifices of varying size disposed on the periphery thereof.
