Embossed paper having alternating high and low strain regions

Patent number: 4921034

Abstract: An embossed sanitary paper product and method of making such product. The paper is embossed to form in the paper a midplane and an array of bosses extending up and down from the formed midplane. Each upward extending boss is flanked on two sides, in each of two directions, by a downward extending boss, and in at least one of the two directions, the paper between an upward extending boss tip and an adjacent downward extending boss tip on one side has a higher strain than the paper between the upward extending boss tip and an adjacent downward extending boss tip on the opposite side. The forming of a higher strain region and a lower strain region on opposite sides of a boss can be accomplished by forming asymmetric bosses with each upward extending boss rotated 180.degree. about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the paper with respect to its adjacent downward extending bosses.

Two large roll toilet tissue dispenser

Patent number: 4872601

Abstract: A wall mounted toilet tissue dispenser for two very large rolls of toilet tissue. The rolls are rotatably supported side by side in the dispenser with the axis of each roll perpendicular to the mounting wall of the dispenser. Paper is dispensed through a dispensing opening located at the bottom of the dispenser. Tail guide members are provided in the dispenser for limiting the location in the dispensing opening of the tail of each roll of tissue and for guaranteeing that the paper is at an angle to the vertical when the paper is severed so that after the paper is cut the tail will project below the dispensing opening when the paper falls to a vertical position.

Method for producing pulp using pre-treatment with stabilizers and defibration

Patent number: 4849053

Abstract: A method for producing novel pulp, primarily wood pulp, from chips using pre-treatment with stabilizers and alkaline peroxide prior to mechanical fiberization (refining) to increase the brightness of the resulting fibers and the papermaking strength achievable with the fibers. The novel aspect of the pre-treatment prior to refining is that it results in the "in situ" formation within the chips of a stabilizing flock or sol.

Notched doctored single kiss roll applicator

Patent number: 4814204

Abstract: An apparatus for applying spaced apart discontinuous stripes of a fluid to the surface of a moving web. The apparatus includes a rotating applicator roll partially immersed in a bath of the fluid. A notched doctor blade in contact with the surface of the roll removes fluid from the surface of the roll except in the region of the notches to form spaced apart circumferential beads of the fluid on the surface of the roll. The moving web partially wraps the applicator roll where the beads are formed, but is travelling between 20 to 200 times the speed of the surface of the applicator roll, which results in a relatively even distribution of the fluid, in the form of a discontinuous stripe, on the surface of the web.

Apparatus for dispensing sheet material

Patent number: 4786005

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an apparatus for dispensing sheet material such as paper towels. The dispensing apparatus when activated dispenses sheet material for a predetermined time which results in a predetermined length of sheet material being dispensed. The dispensing apparatus is actuated in response to the proximity of a portion of a hand of a user to the dispensing apparatus without the hand of a user contacting the apparatus. The dispensing apparatus dispenses sheet material from a roll of material by means of an electrical motor operating for a predetermined time to advance a predetermined length of the sheet material. The motor for advancing a predetermined length of the sheet material can be battery powered. The housing of the dispensing apparatus has a modular frame having a first compartment for the means for advancing the sheet material and a second compartment for the means for activating the advancing means.

Dispenser for multiple rolls of sheet material

Patent number: 4756485

Abstract: A multiple roll towel dispenser. The dispenser cabinet has a pair of feed rollers forming a feed roll nip, means for driving one of the feed rollers to dispense web from the cabinet, means in the cabinet for supporting a first roll of web material with its web extended between the feed roll nip, and means for supporting a second roll of web material with its web extended adjacent to the feed roll nip. The dispenser also includes means, contacting the edge of the first roll, having a first position for sensing the diameter of the first roll; means, connected to the sensing means, for biasing the sensing means against the edge of the first roll; biased transfer means for introducing the extended web of the second roll into the feed roll nip; and stop means, connected to the sensing means, the stop means being located to resist motion of the transfer means at a ready position when the edge of the first roll resists movement of the sensing means.

Method of making a bonded nonwoven web

Patent number: 4749423

Abstract: A method of making a nonwoven fibrous web. A web of primary fibers having uniformly distributed throughout secondary fibers containing 3 to 7 percent polyethylene by weight of the final web is formed on a conveying means. The polyethylene of the secondary fibers has a melting point that is lower than the melting point of the primary fibers. The web is then heated to a temperature below the melting point of the primary fibers but above the melting point of the polyethylene of the secondary fibers thereby causing some of the polyethylene fibers to bond to each other or to the primary fibers. The web is then heated to a temperature above the melting point of the primary fibers to form primary fiber-to-primary fiber thermal bonds which provide substantially all of the useful strength of the web.
