Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0048180A2] A dispenser for a web (27), for example a paper towel, comprises an eccentrically weighted roller (13) around which the web is trained. As a first portion of web is delivered from the roller the eccentrically placed weight (43, 45) is raised to a position of higher potential energy. Further delivery is then temporarily prevented by means of a locking device (15, 17). When the locking device is released, the roller rotates under the influence of the weight, thereby automatically delivering a second portion of web.
