Paper-Towel Apparatus for Reusing Non-Structured Paperless Paper-Towels

Abstract

A reusable towel dispenser includes a reusable towel holding compartment including multiple reusable towels stored in a non-structured manner. The dispenser also includes a reusable towel output of the reusable towel holding compartment, the reusable towel output being configured to enable a reusable towel of a group of non-structured reusable towels to be accessed and pulled, from the reusable towel holding compartment, out of the reusable towel dispenser. The dispenser further includes a reusable towel input of the reusable towel holding compartment, the reusable towel input being configured to allow a group of non-structured reusable towels to be concurrently loaded in the reusable towel holding compartment.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A towel apparatus comprising:
 a housing having (i) a surface extending from a first end to a second end along a longitudinal axis, (ii) a first flat surface adjacent to the first end, and (iii) a second flat surface adjacent to the second end, wherein the housing defines a holding compartment that is configured to store reusable towels in a non-structured manner;   one or more output openings on the surface of the housing that are each sized and shaped to:
 enable a first reusable towel from among the reusable towels stored in the holding compartment in the non-structured manner to be accessed and pulled out of the holding compartment, and 
 prevent other reusable towels from among the reusable towels stored in the holding compartment in the non-structured manner that are not the first reusable towel from falling out of the holding compartment while the towel apparatus rotates in a mounted position; and 
   wherein the housing configured to be fully rotatable along the longitudinal axis.   
     
     
         2 . The towel apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each of the one or more output openings have a different shape. 
     
     
         3 . The towel apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each of the one or more output openings have the same shape. 
     
     
         4 . The towel apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a first lateral opening on the first flat surface;
 a second lateral opening on the first flat surface; and 
 wherein the first lateral opening and the second lateral opening are configured to be sized and shaped to enable the towel apparatus to be mounted on a holding apparatus. 
   
     
     
         5 . The towel apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the holding apparatus comprises an ear-muff holder that is configured to mount a paper-towel roll. 
     
     
         6 . A method comprising:
 loading, in a non-structured manner, a towel apparatus with multiple reusable towels, wherein the towel apparatus comprises:
 a housing having (i) a surface extending from a first end to a second end along a longitudinal axis, (ii) a first flat surface adjacent to the first end, and (iii) a second flat surface adjacent to the second end, wherein the housing defines a holding compartment that is configured to store reusable towels in a non-structured manner, 
 one or more output openings on the surface of the housing that are each sized and shaped to:
 enable a first reusable towel from among the reusable towels stored in the holding compartment in the non-structured manner to be accessed and pulled, from the towel apparatus, out of the holding compartment, and 
 prevent other reusable towels from among the reusable towels stored in the holding compartment in the non-structured manner that are not the first reusable towel from falling out of the holding compartment while the towel apparatus rotates in a mounted position, and 
 
 wherein the housing is configured to be fully rotatable along the longitudinal axis; and 
   removing the first reusable towel from the holding compartment by pulling the first reusable towel out of an output opening included in the one or more output openings.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein each of the one or more output openings have a different shape. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein each of the one or more output openings have the same shape.
