COMMERCIAL

Shown in Figure 1, a dispenser designed specifically for use in commercial or public rest room facilities. This dispenser is a wall mounted unit that holds multiple back-up rolls of tissue. The dispenser depicted in Figure 1 shows a four roll-roll turret system being loaded and sequentially used. When three rolls of tissue are exhausted, a remote location, not shown, is informed. The dispenser provides a wireless electronic transmission to the remote location, whereby custodial or caretaker personnel can be alerted to the supply status of the unit. When all four rolls of tissue are exhausted, both the remote location and the immediate bathroom are alerted. The dispenser provides a motion detector and audio alarm that cooperate with an LED (optional). This embodiment provides a layered defense to assure that patrons of the restroom will not suffer the inconvenience of using the facilities when no rolled tissue product is available. This unit is under development.

RESIDENTIAL

Shown in Figure 2, a dispenser designed specifically for use in residential rest room facilities. This dispenser is a standalone unit that holds a single roll of back-up tissue. The dispenser depicted in Figure 2 shows a single roll being loaded. The dispenser provides a motion detector and audio alarm that cooperate with an LED (optional). When the roll of tissue has been removed the dispenser is activated. Sensing movement, the dispenser provides a warning as to the supply status of the unit. This embodiment provides a defense to assure that patrons of the restroom will not suffer the inconvenience of using the facilities when no rolled tissue product is available.
