The dispenser comprises a receptacle with side elements and a front wall or a panel. The latter extends upwardly, short of an upper part of the receptacle, and provides a loading opening adaptable for supplying rolls, one by one into the receptacle. The front wall or panel extends, as well, downwardly, short of a lower part of the receptacle, and provides a withdrawal opening for removing a roll which is located at the bottom of the receptacle. A dispensing device is located in front of the withdrawal opening at the lower part of the receptacle.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows:  
     
         1 . Dispenser of flexible material provided with a multi-roll holder, comprising, in combination: 
 receptacle means having side elements and including a front wall or panel, which extends upwardly, short of an upper part of said receptacle means, and provides a loading opening as to be adaptable for supplying rolls, one by one into said receptacle means, said front wall or panel extending, as well, downwardly, short of a lower part of said receptacle means, provides a withdrawal opening adaptable for removing a roll which is at a bottom of said receptacle means: and    dispensing means, located substantially in front of said withdrawal opening at a lower part of said receptacle means, being firmly attached to said receptacle means, whereby the distance between said side elements is slightly greater than the width of said rolls which are used in said receptacle means, while the depth of said receptacle means correspond substantially to the maximum diameter of said rolls.    
     
     
         2 . A dispenser, as defined in    claim 1   , wherein said receptacle means incorporates 
 firstly, a rectangular outer frame which forms an open structure or rim and, secondly, an inner frame, a front part of said inner frame being encased by said outer frame, whereby a part of said inner frame which extends outwardly from said outer frame being adaptable to be supported in a recess formed in a wall.    
     
     
         3 . Dispenser of flexible material, as defined in    claim 1   , wherein said receptacle means has the shape of a box and is adaptable to be attached flush with a wall.  
     
     
         4 . Dispenser of flexible material adaptable to be attached to a side element and to a lower part of a front element, both said elements being incorporated in a receptacle means adapted for holding several rolls, the lowermost of said several rolls sitting on the bottom of said receptacle means, which dispenser of flexible material comprises: 
 a pivotable bracket, adapted to extend outwardly in a working position from said side element, said pivotable bracket being hinged to said side element; so it can be placed perpendicular to said side element, when it is not in a working position;    a rigid spindle firmly attached perpendicular to said pivotable bracket and adaptable to be located parallel to the longitudinal axis of the lowermost roll which sits on the bottom of said receptacle means; and    a pivotable cover of curved shape adapted to be hinged with its interior edge to a lower part of said front element, said pivotable cover incorporating, as well, two panels, the internal distance between said two panels being slightly greater than the distance an outside surface of said pivotable bracket and the outside end of said rigid spindle so that it is adaptable to locate a roll.
