MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR TOWEL DISPENSER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240023766 titled 'MOUNTING SYSTEM FOR TOWEL DISPENSER

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a towel dispenser mounting system that includes a sensor and a dispenser. The sensor is directly attached to the wall, while the dispenser is mounted to the wall through a mounting component. The dispenser contains a roll of material for dispensing towels, and the sensor is designed to detect the distance from the sensor to the roll. This allows for the calculation of the amount of towels to be dispensed or the amount of towels already dispensed. The sensor is located within the housing of the dispenser when attached to the mounting component, with both the housing and the mounting component having openings through which the sensor extends.

  • The system includes a sensor directly attached to the wall and a dispenser mounted to the wall through a mounting component.
  • The dispenser contains a roll of material for dispensing towels.
  • The sensor is configured to detect the distance from the sensor to the roll, allowing for the calculation of the amount of towels to be dispensed or already dispensed.
  • The sensor is located within the housing of the dispenser when attached to the mounting component.
  • The housing of the dispenser and the mounting component have openings through which the sensor extends.

Potential Applications:

  • Public restrooms
  • Hotels
  • Restaurants
  • Hospitals
  • Gyms

Problems Solved:

  • Ensures an accurate calculation of the amount of towels to be dispensed or already dispensed.
  • Prevents wastage of towels by dispensing only the required amount.

Original Abstract Submitted

a towel dispenser mounting system includes a mounting component; a sensor; and a dispenser. the sensor is directly attached to the wall and the dispenser is mounted to the wall through attachment of the mounting component to the wall. the dispenser contains a roll of material for dispensing towels, and the sensor is configured to detect a distance from the sensor to the roll, whereby an amount of towels to be dispensed may be calculated and/or an amount of towels already dispensed may be calculated. the sensor is located within a housing of the dispenser when the dispenser is attached to the mounting component; a back wall of the housing of the dispenser defines an opening through which the sensor is partially received. the mounting component also defines an opening through which the sensor extends. mounting a dispenser to a wall to which a sensor is attached is also disclosed.
