Description

[0001] The invention relates to a set comprising toilet paper and a liquid container, a device for providing liquid containers for the set, a method for providing moistened toilet paper, and the use of the liquid container for moistening the toilet paper.

[0002] Hygiene papers, such as toilet paper, are generally more suitable for effective personal hygiene when moistened than when dry. Therefore, a variety of pre-moistened hygiene papers are available. These usually consist of a soft, fibrous material with high flexibility and water absorption capacity, coated with a reinforcing layer of a thermoplastic material and moistened. The pre-moistened hygiene paper is then packaged in such a way that drying out is prevented as effectively as possible. Pre-moistened hygiene papers are described, for example, in US Pat. Nos. 3,881,210 A and 5,938,069 A.

[0003] However, if these pre-moistened tissue papers are disposed of down a toilet, for example, they can pose a problem for the wastewater system, as they may contain components such as polyester, polypropylene, viscose, cellulose, or cotton, which are difficult or impossible to decompose in wastewater. Combined with other components such as preservatives and cleaning agents, this can create fat mountains or tear-resistant tangles in the wastewater, clogging wastewater systems, sewage systems, and / or treatment plants.

[0004] Approaches are therefore known from the prior art in which dry hygiene paper is moistened with a spray device before use, as described, for example, in AT 013 897 U1, DE 39 22 159 A1 or DE 101 29 156 A1. The spray devices can, for example, be designed in such a way that the user can carry them with them. However, this can be perceived as impractical by the user. The spray device can also be arranged near the toilet. However, particularly in public areas, for example in public toilets, or in hotels and hospitals, it can be perceived as unpleasant by the user to use a spray device to moisten toilet paper which may have already been used by a previous user.

[0005] US 3,635,567 A also describes a disposable, combined packaging and applicator unit, which, among other things, comprises a capsule containing a liquid. The packaging and applicator unit also comprises a flexible, laminated strip of moisture-impermeable material. The strip is arranged on a surface of the capsule, which is formed integrally within the strip. The capsule has a tearable wall arranged such that the liquid is released only at the surface of the strip, where several layers of a softer, absorbent material are arranged. These absorb the liquid. Furthermore, DE 695 14 244 T2 describes a package for moist toilet paper, in which a strip of toilet paper is arranged together with a liquid.Furthermore, FR 2 773 683 A1 discloses, among other things, a device for applying a liquid product to any surface by bursting under the action of manual pressure. US 5 616 337 A also discloses a single-dose package with two compartments separated by a tearable seal.

[0006] Based on this, the object of the invention is to provide an improved possibility for providing moist hygiene paper and / or cleaning paper.

[0007] This object is achieved with the set according to claim 1: The set according to the invention comprises a toilet paper roll and at least one liquid container, spatially separated from the toilet paper roll and manually openable, preferably burstable, twistable, or tearable by finger pressure, for providing liquid with which the hygiene fleece can be moistened. The liquid container has at least partially water-soluble and / or at least partially disintegratable walls.

[0008] This makes it possible to provide a user with liquid for moistening the toilet paper, whereby the user can be sure that no one has previously come into contact with the liquid contained in the liquid container and contaminated it. The set is complete when the toilet paper and the liquid container are present. For example, the liquid container can be provided independently of the toilet paper. For example, the user can carry the liquid containers with them in a travel case. However, a liquid container dispenser can also be provided, particularly in public areas, which provides the user with a liquid container. The liquid container can be designed, for example, as a liquid bag or a liquid capsule. Preferably, the liquid container is designed as a liquid bag.It is preferred that the liquid container can be burst open by applying finger pressure to the liquid bag. Furthermore, the liquid container can be opened and emptied, for example, by manually twisting or tearing the container wall. The liquid contained in the liquid bag can be a water- and / or oil-based liquid. The liquid container can, for example, contain a quantity between 3 ml and 10 ml, in particular between 4 ml and 7 ml, preferably approximately 5 ml.

[0009] The special feature of the set according to the invention lies in the liquid container, which can be easily opened and emptied by hand. Preferably, the liquid container is designed to burst open with finger pressure. This offers a particularly easy-to-use way to provide the user with the liquid contained in the liquid container in order to produce moist toilet paper exactly as needed, together with the toilet paper. The toilet paper can be made of paper, for example. In particular, the toilet paper is a long-fiber and / or multi-ply hygiene paper that the user can preferably use as toilet paper. The liquid container can be made of a polymer, for example.

[0010] The toilet paper and the liquid container are provided separately. The liquid container can be opened manually, for example by bursting, twisting, or tearing the container, causing the liquid contained in the liquid container to escape. The liquid can be used to moisten the initially dry toilet paper of the set. In an alternative embodiment, the liquid container can be housed between two or more layers of the multi-ply toilet paper. In this embodiment, the initially dry toilet paper can be moistened by finger pressure on the liquid container housed between the layers of toilet paper.

[0011] It is preferred that the liquid be encapsulated by the liquid container, preferably in a liquid-tight manner, whereby the liquid is securely enclosed by the wall of the liquid container, thus preventing premature bursting of the liquid container, for example, during transport or storage. Furthermore, this ensures that the liquid container is filled with a sufficient amount of liquid.

[0012] For example, the liquid can consist entirely of water. However, the liquid can also be water-based and contain additives such as germicidal, skin-care, and / or perfume additives. For example, the liquid can also contain soap solutions. Furthermore, the liquid can contain only cleansing oil. The use of only cleansing oil or an emulsion that does not corrode the liquid container is particularly advantageous if the liquid container is made of water-soluble or degradable material. The liquid can also contain an emulsion of water and cleansing oil.

[0013] The liquid container has at least partially water-soluble and / or at least partially disintegratable walls. This allows the user to conveniently dispose of the liquid container in the toilet along with the toilet paper after use, i.e., after opening the liquid container. The water-soluble and disintegratable walls can dissolve in the wastewater, thus reducing the risk of sewer line blockages.

[0014] In one embodiment, the liquid container has at least one non-water-soluble barrier layer, which preferably completely encloses the liquid. The non-water-soluble barrier layer is preferably enclosed by a water-soluble load-bearing layer, wherein a layer thickness of the water-soluble load-bearing layer is in particular greater than that of the non-water-soluble barrier layer. The water-soluble load-bearing layer preferably has a greater layer thickness, so that it ensures the stability of the liquid container. The preferably significantly thinner non-water-soluble barrier layer is in contact exclusively with the liquid, so that the water-soluble load-bearing layer does not come into contact with the liquid, for example, during transport or storage.As soon as the liquid container bursts, the water-soluble load-bearing layer dissolves, leaving only the much thinner, non-water-soluble barrier layer. Due to its thin layer thickness, this layer disintegrates in the turbulence of a toilet flush and does not clog the sewer line. The set can be disposed of down a toilet, for example. The water-soluble load-bearing layer can consist of a mixture of polyethylene oxide and plasticized polyvinyl chloride, for example, while the non-water-soluble layer can consist of a water-insoluble polymer or copolymer of polyvinylidene chloride. Alternatively, the liquid container can be made partially or entirely of a non-water-soluble plastic.

[0015] If the fluid contained in the fluid reservoir is a cleaning oil, the walls of the fluid reservoir can also contain only a water-soluble load-bearing layer. In this case, the non-water-soluble barrier layer is omitted.

[0016] In particular, the liquid container bursts when a predetermined force is applied to the container from the outside, which force is preferably 20 Newtons, more preferably 15 Newtons, and particularly preferably 10 Newtons or less. If the predetermined force is too high, it may be unpleasant for the user to burst the liquid container. If the predetermined force is too low, the liquid container may burst prematurely during transport or storage. Alternatively, the liquid container can be emptied by manually tearing it open. The liquid container can also have at least two container parts that are manually releasably connected to one another. For example, the two container parts can have complementary coupling elements, such as threaded or snap-on connection elements.

[0017] It is preferred that the liquid container has at least one bursting area in which the wall of the liquid container is thinner than the remaining wall of the container. This allows the liquid container to have a predetermined breaking point that facilitates the bursting of the liquid container.

[0018] Additionally or alternatively, an at least partial perforation of the wall can be formed in the bursting area of ​​the liquid container. This can further improve the bursting properties of the liquid container. The perforation depth in the wall is preferably smaller than the thickness of the wall of the liquid container.

[0019] Furthermore, the object is achieved by the device for providing liquid containers for a set of the above type according to claim 10. The device according to the invention comprises the following: - At least one storage magazine in which a predetermined number of liquid containers are accommodated; - An actuating element with which the dispensing of a liquid container can be requested by a user; and - A dispensing device that, when the user actuates the actuating element, dispenses a liquid container from the at least one storage magazine. The at least one storage magazine can accommodate, for example, 5, 10, or 36 liquid containers. The actuating element can be, for example, an actuating lever, a rotary actuating switch, or a contactless actuating switch.

[0020] The storage magazine can, for example, be designed such that the liquid containers are spaced apart from one another along a spiral. The liquid containers are, in particular, housed separately from one another in the storage magazine. This can reduce the risk of the remaining containers being destroyed if a liquid container in the storage magazine accidentally bursts open prematurely.

[0021] The liquid containers can also be stored in the storage magazine in a continuous arrangement. The liquid containers can then form a series, for example, in the form of a snake, with the individual liquid containers connected to one another via an unfilled foil section. In this section, the dispensing device can have at least one separating device configured to separate at least one liquid container from the series of liquid containers upon actuation of the actuating element. The separating device can have at least one blade element for separating a liquid container.

[0022] The dispensing device can then dispense the separated liquid container. The device for providing liquid containers can also comprise a forwarding device configured to forward the storage magazine, so that as long as liquid containers are contained in the storage magazine, the dispensing device is preferably continuously supplied with liquid containers from the storage magazine.

[0023] In one embodiment, the device for providing liquid containers comprises in particular a synchronization means, such as a gear means, which connects the actuating element to the dispensing device, so that, for example, a movement of the actuating element is / are translated into one or more specific movements of the dispensing device and / or the storage magazine.

[0024] Furthermore, the object is achieved by the method for providing moistened toilet paper according to claim 11. The method according to the invention comprises the following steps: - Providing a kit containing pre-dried toilet paper and a liquid container that can be opened by finger pressure; and - Moisten the toilet paper by manually opening the liquid container and emptying the liquid contained in the liquid container onto the toilet paper.

[0025] It is preferred that the liquid container for moistening the toilet paper is arranged near the toilet paper and opened manually, for example by pressing it with a finger, so that it bursts, tears or twists open and the liquid contained in the liquid container moistens the toilet paper.

[0026] Preferably, the liquid container is disposed of together with the toilet paper or separately after use.

[0027] In addition, the problem is solved by using a liquid container that contains a liquid and can be opened manually, for example by finger pressure, to moisten a toilet paper.

[0028] All features and advantages described with respect to the set according to the invention are also applicable to the device according to the invention, the method according to the invention and the use according to the invention.

[0029] Further details of advantageous developments or details of the invention can be found in the drawings, the description, and the dependent claims. They show: Fig. 1 A schematic, three-dimensional view of a first embodiment of the set according to the invention, Fig. 2 a cross section of a second embodiment of the liquid container, Fig. 3 a cross section of a third embodiment of the liquid container, Fig. 4 a cross section of a fourth embodiment of the liquid container, Fig. 5 a cross section of a fifth embodiment of the liquid container, Fig. 6 a cross section of a sixth embodiment of the liquid container, Fig. 7 shows a cross section of a seventh embodiment of the liquid container, Fig. 8 a schematic view of an embodiment of the device according to the invention for providing a liquid container.

[0030] In Fig. 1 illustrates a set 1 which serves to provide a user with a moist toilet paper 2. The set 1 comprises a toilet paper 2 and a liquid container 3. The Fig. 1 schematically depicted liquid container can be a liquid bag or a liquid capsule. Fig. The toilet paper 2 shown in Figure 1 is a multi-layered hygiene paper. The hygiene paper 2 has a first layer 19 and a second layer 20 arranged underneath. The hygiene paper 2 can also have additional layers. For example, the hygiene paper 2 can be three-, four-, or five-layered. Fig. 1 also has a perforation 18 along a line which makes it possible to tear off individual sheets 16 and 17 of the hygiene paper 2, for example from a roll on which the hygiene paper 2 is rolled up.

[0031] The liquid container 3 has a wall 4 that completely encapsulates the liquid W contained in the liquid container 3. The wall 4 of the liquid container 3 has a top section 13 and a bottom section 14, between which a side section 15 is arranged.

[0032] The Fig. The liquid container 3 shown in Figure 1 is designed to be manually opened under finger pressure, for example, to be burstable, destructible, or emptied. This means that if a force F acting on the liquid container from the outside exceeds a certain value, the wall 4 of the liquid container 3 bursts because the internal pressure in the liquid container 3 is so great that the wall 4 can no longer withstand it.

[0033] The liquid container 3 from Fig. 1 also has a line along which several perforations 8 are arranged in the wall 4. In Fig. 1, the line with perforations 8 is arranged on the side portion 15 of the liquid container 3. However, the line with perforations 8 can also be arranged on the top portion 13 or the bottom portion 14 of the liquid container 3.

[0034] In the Fig. 1, it is preferred that the force for bursting the liquid container acts on the top section 13 and the bottom section 14 of the liquid container 3. It is therefore particularly advantageous if the line with the perforations 8 is arranged on the side section 15 of the liquid container 3. When a force F is applied to the top section 13 and bottom section 14 of the liquid container 3, the perforations 8 form a predetermined breaking point in the wall 4 of the liquid container 3, thereby facilitating the bursting of the liquid container 3.

[0035] In Fig. 2 shows a first embodiment of the liquid container 3 in cross-section. In this embodiment of the liquid container 3, the wall 4 of the liquid container has a barrier layer 5 and a load-bearing layer 6. The liquid W contained in the liquid container 3 is completely encapsulated by the barrier layer 5. If the liquid W contains a large proportion of water, the barrier layer 5 is preferably designed to be non-water-soluble. The barrier layer 5 is enclosed by a load-bearing layer 6. The layer thickness d of the barrier layer 5 is significantly smaller than the layer thickness d of the load-bearing layer 6. The load-bearing layer 6 is preferably designed to be water-soluble. However, the barrier layer 5 prevents the load-bearing layer 6 from dissolving prematurely, for example during transport or storage, and thus preventing the liquid container 3 from bursting prematurely.In particular, both the barrier layer 5 and the load-bearing layer 6 are degradable. This allows the liquid container 3 to be safely flushed down the toilet with the hygiene paper 2 after use, for example, without the user having to worry about any residues of the liquid container 3 leading to a blockage of the sewer line and / or sewage treatment plant.

[0036] In Fig. Figure 3 shows a cross-section of a second embodiment of the liquid container 3. The above applies accordingly to the second embodiment, with reference to the reference numerals. However, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that the liquid container 3 in this embodiment does not have a barrier layer 5. If the load-bearing layer 6 is designed to be water-soluble, it is preferred that the liquid W contained in the liquid container 3 be oil-based.

[0037] In Fig. Figure 4 shows a third embodiment of the liquid container 3 in cross-section. The above also applies accordingly to the third embodiment. The third embodiment differs from the previous embodiments in that the wall 4 of the liquid bag 3 has an upper wall 26 and a lower wall 27, which are connected to one another on the side of the liquid container 3 by a closure seam 21. For example, the upper wall 26 is welded to the lower wall 27 at the closure seam 21, so that the liquid W is preferably enclosed in a liquid-tight manner in the liquid container 3 between the upper wall 26 and the lower wall 27.

[0038] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a circle with perforations 8 is arranged on the top portion 13 and the bottom portion 14 of the liquid container 3. The perforations 8 can also be provided only on the top portion 13 or only on the bottom portion 14. This position of the perforations 8 can also be used in the first and second embodiments. In the third embodiment, similar to the first embodiment of the liquid container 3, a barrier layer 5 can additionally be provided between the load-bearing layer 6 and the liquid W.

[0039] In Fig. Figure 5 shows the cross-section of a fourth exemplary embodiment of the liquid container 3. The fourth exemplary embodiment of the liquid container 3 differs from exemplary embodiments 1-3 in that a recess 22 is provided in the wall 4 of the liquid container 3 in the top section 13 and the bottom section 14 of the liquid container 3. Only one recess 22 can be formed on the top section 13 or on the bottom section 14 of the liquid container 3. The recess 22 in the wall 4 can, on the one hand, result in the thickness of the wall 4 at the location of the recess 22 being thinner than the thickness of the wall 4 in the remaining area of ​​the liquid container 3. This can make it easier for the liquid container 3 to burst open.Furthermore, the recess 22 can be designed such that the user can place his fingers in the recesses 22 when the liquid container 3 bursts open, thus preventing the fingers from slipping when the liquid container 3 bursts open.

[0040] In Fig. 6 shows a fifth embodiment of the liquid container 3 in cross-section. The liquid container 3 of the fifth embodiment differs from those of the previous embodiments in that the liquid container 3 is designed as a capsule. This capsule is at least substantially cylindrical and defines a longitudinal axis L, with the base and lid surfaces of the capsule being rounded. The liquid container 3 also has a first container part 29 and a second container part 30, which are connected to one another by a coupling connection 31. The coupling connection 31 contains two mutually complementary elements, each of which is assigned to one of the two container parts 29, 30 of the liquid container 3. The first and second container parts 29, 30 each have an annular extension 32, 33.The first extension 32 of the first container part 29 has at least one annular coupling projection 34 that projects radially inward from the inner surface of the first extension 32. The second extension 33 of the second container part 30 has an annular coupling groove 35 on its outer surface that is adapted to the coupling projection 34 of the first container part 29. In the assembled state, the coupling projection 34 is located in the coupling groove 35, so that a positive connection exists between the first and second container parts 29, 30. The inner diameter of the first extension 32 of the first container part 29 corresponds at least substantially to the outer diameter of the second extension 33 of the second container part 30. The outer diameter of the first extension 32 of the first container part 29 corresponds at least substantially to the outer diameter of the second container part 30, so that the outer contour of the liquid container 3 is continuously variable. The one in . Fig. The liquid container 3 shown in Figure 6 can be opened, for example, by pulling the two container parts 29, 30 apart along the longitudinal axis L of the liquid container 3. The liquid container 3 can also be opened by pressing the coupling connection 31 together. When the coupling connection 31 is pressed together, the two annular extensions 32, 33 can deform in such a way that the coupling projection 34 partially slips out of the coupling groove 35, causing the two container parts 29, 30 to separate from each other and the liquid container 3 to open irreversibly.

[0041] Fig. Figure 7 shows a cross-section of a sixth embodiment of the liquid container 3. The liquid container 3 of the sixth embodiment differs from the fifth embodiment in that the coupling connection 31 is configured with a thread. The first extension 32 of the first container part 29 has an internal thread, with which an external thread of the second extension 33 of the second container part 30 engages in the assembled state. The liquid container 3 can be opened by rotating the two container parts 29, 30 in opposite directions.

[0042] In Fig. Figure 8 schematically depicts an embodiment of the device 9 for providing liquid containers 3. The device 9 can, for example, be mounted on the wall near a toilet such that the device 9 is within reach of a user sitting on the toilet. The toilet can, for example, be a public toilet, a hotel toilet, or a hospital toilet.

[0043] The device 9 has in Fig. 6 has a storage magazine 10 in which a plurality of liquid containers 3 are stored. The device 9 can also have several storage magazines 10. The liquid containers 3 can be individually accommodated in the storage magazine 10. This is shown in Fig. 6 is shown schematically. Alternatively, the liquid containers 3 can also be designed as in the third embodiment, with several liquid containers 3 connected to one another in a chain-like manner. In this case, several interconnected liquid containers 3 are accommodated in the storage magazine 10.

[0044] The device 9 has an actuating element 11 by which the user can request the dispensing of a liquid container 3.

[0045] In Fig. In Figure 6, the actuating element is shown as a slider. However, the actuating element can also be designed as a rotary knob or, for example, as a contactless sensor.

[0046] The device 9 also has a dispensing device 12 which, upon actuation of the actuating element 11, dispenses a liquid container 3 from the storage magazine 10. In the Fig.In the example shown in Figure 6, the dispensing device 12 is formed by two movable partitions that allow for the provision of precisely one liquid container 3. When a liquid container passes the dispensing device 12, it lands in a dispensing tray 23, from which the user can remove the liquid container 3. The dispensing tray 23 is arranged below the opening 26 of the dispensing device 12.

[0047] When a liquid container 3 passes through the dispensing device 12 and falls out of the dispensing opening 28 of the dispensing device 12, it lands in the dispensing tray 23. To mitigate the impact of the liquid container 3 on the dispensing tray 23, the dispensing tray 23 has a dispensing chute 24 below the dispensing opening 28 of the dispensing device 12. This prevents the liquid container 3 from bursting prematurely.

[0048] In the event that the liquid containers 3 are accommodated in the storage magazine 10 in a chain-like manner, the dispensing device 12 has at least one cutting edge with which exactly one liquid container 3 is separated from the chain during dispensing.

[0049] The set according to the invention serves to provide moistened toilet paper 2 as needed, in particular for personal cleansing. Set 1 comprises a toilet paper 2 and at least one liquid container 3, which can be burst open by finger pressure, for providing liquid W with which the toilet paper 2 can be moistened. The invention also relates to a device 9 for providing liquid containers 3 for the set of the above type, a method for providing moistened toilet paper 2, and the use of a liquid container 3 containing a liquid W and which can be burst open by finger pressure for moistening a toilet paper 2.
