Abstract

A novel tissue package and tissue dispenser is disclosed, where the tissue package is a tissue roll of height and width, where the tissue roll is taller than it is wide, and a tissue dispenser comprised of a dispenser housing with a central core and an exterior, where the central core is compatibly sized to receive the tissue roll and where the exterior is comprised of a decorative format. The tissue roll and the tissue dispenser of the present invention allow for variations in the distance between a first tissue and the top of the tissue roll while maintaining an integral connection between the first tissue and the tissue roll for providing the sequential propagation of successive tissues from the dispenser housing.

Claims

1. A tissue roll and dispenser for dispensing tissues in sequential fashion, the tissue roll and dispenser comprising:

A tissue roll of a height and width, where the tissue roll has more height than width, and where the tissue roll includes a first tissue and a plurality of successive tissues; and

,

A dispenser housing with comprising a central core portion, a base, a tissue portal and an exterior portion, where the central core portion receives said tissue roll and where said first tissue extends through said tissue portal and as the first tissue is removed for use each successive tissue is advanced through said tissue portal and where said dispenser housing exterior compensates for the center of gravity of said tissue roll in a manner to cause the combined center of gravity of the dispenser housing and the tissue roll to be lower than the center of gravity of the tissue roll alone.

2. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 1, where the central core portion includes a core top, a core bottom, core sidewalls, where the tissue portal meets the core top.

3. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 1, where the dispenser housing compensates for the center of gravity of the tissue roll by the width of the dispenser housing base.

4. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 1, where the dispenser housing compensates for the center of gravity of the tissue roll through the use of a lighter construction, the combination of the dispenser housing and the tissue roll collectively having a lower center of gravity than the tissue roll alone.

5. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 1, where the dispenser housing exterior is fashioned to reflect a decorative format.

6. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 5, where said decorative format of the dispenser housing exterior can be adjusted over a range with respect to the distance between the top of said tissue roll and the tissue portal.

7. A tissue roll and dispenser for dispensing tissues in sequential fashion, the tissue roll and dispenser comprising:

A tissue roll of a height and width, where the tissue roll has more height than width, and where the tissue roll includes a first tissue and a plurality of successive tissues; and

,

A dispenser housing with comprising a central core portion, a base, a tissue portal and an exterior portion, where the central core portion receives said tissue roll and where the central core portion includes a core top, a core bottom, core sidewalls, where the tissue portal meets the core top and where said first tissue extends through said tissue portal and as the first tissue is removed for use each successive tissue is advanced through said tissue portal and where said dispenser housing exterior is fashioned to reflect a decorative format where said decorative format of the dispenser housing exterior can be adjusted over a range with respect to the distance between the top of said tissue roll and the tissue portal.

8. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 7, where said dispenser housing exterior compensates for the center of gravity of said tissue roll in a manner to cause the combined center of gravity of the dispenser housing and the tissue roll to be lower than the center of gravity of the tissue roll alone.

9. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 8, where the dispenser housing compensates for the center of gravity of the tissue roll by the width of the dispenser housing base.

10. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 8, where the dispenser housing compensates for the center of gravity of the tissue roll through the use of a lighter construction, the combination of the dispenser housing and the tissue roll collectively having a lower center of gravity than the tissue roll alone.

11. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 7, the distance between the top of said tissue roll and the tissue portal comprising a range extending from a nominal distance to twelve inches.

12. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 7, where the height of the tissue roll is approximately eight and one-half inches and the width is approximately four inches.

13. A tissue roll and dispenser for dispensing tissues in sequential fashion, the tissue roll and dispenser comprising:

A tissue roll of a height and width, where the tissue roll has more height than width, and where the tissue roll includes a first tissue and a plurality of successive tissues; and

,

A dispenser housing with comprising a central core portion, a base, a tissue portal and an exterior portion, where the central core portion receives said tissue roll and where the central core portion includes a core top, a core bottom, core sidewalls, where the tissue portal meets the core top and where said first tissue extends through said tissue portal and as the first tissue is removed for use each successive tissue is advanced through said tissue portal and where said dispenser housing exterior is fashioned to reflect a decorative format where said decorative format of the dispenser housing exterior can be adjusted over a range with respect to the distance between the top of said tissue roll and the tissue portal, and further where said dispenser housing exterior compensates for the center of gravity of said tissue roll in a manner to cause the combined center of gravity of the dispenser housing and the tissue roll to be lower than the center of gravity of the tissue roll alone.

14. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 13, where the dispenser housing compensates for the center of gravity of the tissue roll by the width of the dispenser housing base.

15. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 13, where the dispenser housing compensates for the center of gravity of the tissue roll through the use of a lighter construction, the combination of the dispenser housing and the tissue roll collectively having a lower center of gravity than the tissue roll alone.

16. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 13, the distance between the top of said tissue roll and the tissue portal comprising a range extending from a nominal distance to twelve inches.

17. The tissue roll and dispenser of claim Number 13, where the height of the tissue roll is approximately eight and one-half inches and the width is approximately four inches.
