AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention is a toilet tissue roll holder made of flexible materials such as fabric or leather. It offers more design options and can be easily replaced without purchasing a new holder. The holder has a removable sleeve, lining, and cover that can be interchanged, replaced, or removed for cleaning. It also has a window for inspection, a pocket for air freshener, and feet to prevent direct contact with the floor. The holder can be used as a freestanding holder or attached to a bathroom wall. The invention provides a unique and decorative holder that is both functional and easy to clean."

Problems solved by technology

It is with frequency that a person is left in an embarrassing situation when the roll of toilet tissue has been used up and there are no means of finding a replacement roll of toilet tissue without the aid a person outside the bathroom.
The styles and designs of the wood, ceramic or metal holders are quite limited and so interchanging these holders with a vast array of designs and colors would be impossible.
Interchangeability and design flexibility are lacking in prior art of toilet tissue holders.

Abstract

A free-standing interchangeable toilet tissue storage holder that is constructed of leather or fabric in such a manner to provide means of disassembling the toilet tissue storage holder for the purpose of interchanging different designs or for disassembling to clean the textile components. It is an advantageous and attractive means of storing toilet tissue while offering design changeability. The holder provides a partially transparent cover, centrally located, on top of the cover to permit ease of identifying the contents without physically lifting the cover.
