Abstract
Abstract A paper roll holder comprised of a pair of generally identical right angled plate members, one member for mounting on a wall or the like and the other member being hinged to the one member for providing a cover for the holder as well as means to block removal of a paper roll from the holder. One angled plate member has a rear plate portion for securing to the wall and an end support plate portion protruding from the wall and having a rodlike paper roll holding member secured at one end thereof to one side of the end support plate portion. The second angled plate member has a top plate portion pivotally connected to the top edge of the end support plate portion of the first angled plate member for covering a roll of paper on the rod-like member, and an end plate portion depending downwardly from the top plate portion past the opposite end of the rod-like member to block removal of a roll of paper thereof but permitting removal of the paper roll simply by pivoting the second angled plate member upwardly.

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
A paper roll holder comprising: a generally rigid end support plate; means for mounting the end support plate to a wall or the like so that the plate protrudes outwardly from the wall in a generally vertical plane; a rod-like member secured at one end thereof to one side of the end support plate spaced from and extending generally parallel to the wall for receiving the core of a paper roll, or the like; and an angled plate member having a top plate portion pivotally connected on a generally horizontal axis to the top of said end support plate for covering a roll of paper on said rod-like member, and an end plate portion rigid with and depending downwardly from the top plate portion past the opposite end of the rod-like member to block removal of a paper roll therefrom but permitting removal of the paper roll simply by pivoting the angled plate member upwardly.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
155 words
A paper roll holder comprising: a generally rigid end support plate; means for mounting the end support plate to a wall or the like so that the plate protrudes outwardly from the wall in a generally vertical plane; a rod-like member secured at one end thereof to one side of the end support plate spaced from and extending generally parallel to the wall for receiving the core of a paper roll, or the like; and an angled plate member having a top plate portion pivotally connected on a generally horizontal axis to the top of said end support plate for covering a roll of paper on said rod-like member, and an end plate portion rigid with and depending downwardly from the top plate portion past the opposite end of the rod-like member to block removal of a paper roll therefrom but permitting removal of the paper roll simply by pivoting the angled plate member upwardly.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
The paper roll holder of claim 1 wherein the end plate portion of said angled plate member is disposed generally parallel to the end support plate and abuts against said opposite end of the rod-like member when in its normal blocking position.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
55 words
The paper roll holder of claim 1 wherein said end support plate and the end plate portion of said angled plate member are disposed in generally vertical planes generally perpendicular to the wall and said top plate portion of the angled plate memBer is disposed in a generally horizontal plane generally perpendicular to the wall.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
45 words
The paper roll holder of claim 3 wherein said end support plate and the end and top plate portions of said angled plate member all are generally of the same width to provide a generally uniform open front and bottom housing for a paper roll.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
The paper roll holder of claim 1 wherein said end support plate comprises one plate portion of a second angled plate member having a rear plate portion secured generally flush with the wall.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
59 words
The paper roll holder of claim 5 wherein both of said angled plate members are generally identical in size and shape with the plate portions thereof being disposed generally at right angles to each other and protruding generally perpendicular to the wall when secured thereto to provide a generally uniform open front and bottom housing for a paper roll.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
