Dispenser for cellulose products in sheet form

Abstract

The dispenser includes a prismatic container ( 1 ) defined by: a substantially rectangular bottom wall ( 2 ); a first pair of opposite lateral walls ( 3, 4 ); a second pair of opposite lateral walls ( 5, 6 ). Each lateral wall ( 3, 4, 5, 6 ) extends from the bottom wall ( 2 ) toward a respective upper end edge ( 3 A, 4 A, 5 A, 6 A) and the upper edges ( 3 A, 4 A, 5 A, 6 A) of the lateral walls ( 3, 4, 5, 6 ) surround an upper opening ( 7 ) of the prismatic container ( 1 ), opposite the bottom wall ( 2 ). The dispenser further includes a substantially rectangular closing plate ( 8 ), including an opening ( 9 ) for picking up the cellulose products in sheet form. Each lateral wall ( 3, 4 ) of the first pair of lateral walls includes a respective cutout ( 10, 11 ) extending in a direction oriented from the upper opening ( 7 ) toward the bottom wall ( 2 ). Each of two opposite edges ( 12, 13 ) of the rectangular plate ( 8 ) includes a respective appendage ( 14, 15 ) adapted to be slidingly engaged along a respective of the cutouts ( 10, 11 ).

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A dispenser for cellulose products in sheet form comprising:
 a prismatic container defined by: a substantially rectangular bottom wall; a first pair of opposite lateral walls; a second pair of opposite lateral walls; wherein each lateral wall extends from the bottom wall toward a respective upper end edge; and wherein the upper edges of the lateral walls surround an upper opening of the prismatic container, opposite the bottom wall;   a substantially rectangular closing plate, comprising an opening for picking up the cellulose products in sheet form contained in the prismatic container, said closing plate being adapted to slide in the prismatic container along said lateral walls;   
       wherein each lateral wall of the first pair of lateral walls comprises a respective cutout extending in a direction oriented from the upper opening toward the bottom wall; and in that each of two opposite edges of the rectangular plate comprises a respective appendage adapted to be slidingly engaged along a respective one of said cutouts. 
     
     
         2 . The dispenser of  claim 1 , wherein the closing plate, the bottom wall and the opening have a rectangular shape with a longer side and a shorter side and wherein the first pair of lateral walls are arranged at the shorter side of the base wall and of the opening. 
     
     
         3 . The dispenser of  claim 1 , wherein in proximity of the upper edge of at least two of said lateral walls respective stops are provided adapted to prevent the rectangular plate from being accidentally separated from the prismatic container when a cellulose product in sheet form is extracted from the container through said opening of the rectangular plate. 
     
     
         4 . The dispenser of  claim 1 , wherein in proximity of the upper edge of each lateral wall of said second pair of lateral walls a respective stop is provided, adapted to prevent the rectangular plate from being accidentally separated from the prismatic container when a cellulose product in sheet form is extracted from the container through said opening of the rectangular plate. 
     
     
         5 . The dispenser of  claim 1 , wherein said plate comprises at least one rib on a face of the plate facing the bottom wall when the plate is mounted between the lateral walls of the container, said at least one rib extending along the opening of the plate. 
     
     
         6 . The dispenser of  claim 1 , wherein the opening of the plate has an elongated shape with a larger dimension and a smaller dimension, and wherein along two opposite edges extending along the larger dimension of the opening two respective ribs extend, protruding from a face of the plate facing the bottom wall when the plate is mounted between the lateral walls of the container. 
     
     
         7 . The dispenser of  claim 6 , wherein the larger dimension of the opening of the plate extends orthogonally to the edges of the plate on which said appendages are provided. 
     
     
         8 . The dispenser of  claim 6 , wherein each rib is joined to the opening of the plate ( 8 ) with a preferably rounded corner. 
     
     
         9 . The dispenser of  claim 1 , wherein the plate has a perimeter edge protruding from the face of the plate which, in use, is facing the lower wall of the container.
