Toilet paper holder

Abstract

To address such a problem that a toilet paper holder is installed beside a toilet seat, causing users to twist their bodies into awkward positions to cut the paper, so paper cut traces are uneven and look unsanitary, and to provide a dual-purpose holder allowing a person sitting on a toilet seat to cut paper easily and accurately, the holder placed at an optional position in a toilet also serving a function other than the cutting.MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEM: A top shape of a holder is changed from a square to an obtuse triangle. The obtuse angle falls under a central angle viewed from a person sitting on a toilet seat, so that the toilet paper placed on one side of the obtuse triangle is diagonally in front of the person sitting on the toilet seat, so as to overcome the main problem. As a secondary function, an empty space formed by the triangular holder is utilized to create a mechanism for disinfecting the toilet seat. A bottle hole is opened in a holder top plate, a bottom plate is placed under the top plate, and a disinfectant bottle is placed thereon. When the toilet bowl is soiled by the toilet use, disinfectant mist sprayed from the bottle is sprayed onto paper hanging from the top plate to make wet paper and the toilet bowl is wiped with the wet paper to be considerable of a person who uses the toilet bowl afterwards.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to a toilet paper holder that is placed in a toilet. [Background technology]

[0002] The most common toilet tissue used after using the toilet is roll toilet paper, which is made up of several tens of meters of soft paper wrapped around a tube. This is hung on a toilet paper holder and cut to the desired length.

[0003] In Japan's generally small toilets, the holder is fixed to the wall parallel to the person sitting on the toilet, which means the person sitting on the toilet has to twist their upper body to cut the paper, which is an awkward position and causes the roll of toilet paper to be cut unevenly.

[0004] To compensate for this drawback, there are toilet papers with perforations, but the perforations are spaced approximately 30 to 50 cm apart, and if the perforations do not line up where you want to cut, the paper may still end up being unevenly cut.

[0005] Also, when using the toilet, the toilet bowl and floor can get dirty, and there is toilet paper in the holder to wipe them off, but because the paper does not contain water, it does not remove the dirt well. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0007] There are four issues that current toilet paper holders are trying to solve. The first is that they should be placed in a position that makes it easy to operate while sitting on the toilet seat. The second is that they need a function that allows you to lightly wet the paper to make it easy to clean the toilet seat after using the toilet. The third is that people with disabilities should be able to cut the paper easily. The fourth is that they need a portable type that is not fixed to the toilet wall, in case they are used by children. Means to solve the issues

[0008] The present invention takes three measures to solve the above-mentioned problems with the toilet paper holder. The first measure is to make the toilet paper holder triangular to make it easier to operate, and to attach an alcohol disinfectant spray bottle to the dead space in the triangle.

[0009] The second means is to make the toilet paper holder of claim 1 into a paper holder that can be used with the feet for people with disabilities.

[0010] The third method is to store the holder in a single box and make it portable.

[0011] The toilet paper holder of this invention has the following excellent effects: (1) You can cut toilet paper diagonally in front of you, leaving a clean cut. (Claim 1) (2) Toilet paper can be turned into wet paper for easy cleaning of the toilet bowl. (Claim 1) (3) People with disabilities can cut paper with their feet. (Claim 2) (4) It is possible to move around the toilet in consideration of children and dominant hands. (Claim 3) [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] The embodiments of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings. The invention of claim 1, which is the core of the present invention, will be explained with reference to Figures 1 and 4. The invention of claim 1 is an invention that makes the toilet paper holder into an obtuse triangle shape to allow for accurate paper cutting, and makes effective use of the dead space that inevitably occurs in a triangle to create disinfectant alcohol wet paper for wiping the toilet bowl.

[0014] First, we will explain a conventional toilet paper holder as a conventional technique using Figure 5. The rectangular top plate 3 is placed parallel to the toilet seat 2, so the user must turn sideways to cut the paper. Therefore, people who are too stiff to turn sideways or who are in a hurry cut the paper by tearing it, which causes the paper to hang down as shown in the figure, causing discomfort to those who use the toilet after them.

[0015] The invention of claim 1 overcomes this problem, as shown in Figure 1, where the drawing symbol 22 indicates that the toilet paper is pulled out in the direction of the arrow, and the stay 8 and toilet paper 4 are separated from the top plate 14, making the central part of the invention easier to understand. Also, Figure 4 explains the mechanism for making disinfecting wet paper in a side view from the left.

[0016] The embodiments will be described step by step with the above figures in mind. First, the top plate 14, which serves as the base, is made into an obtuse triangle. An obtuse angle is a triangle whose central angle, as seen from the perspective of a person sitting on the toilet seat, is an obtuse angle.

[0017] Next, the plate mounting board 6 is attached to the toilet wall 15 after removing the holder of the conventional rectangular top plate 3, and the obtuse triangular top plate 14 is fixed thereto with screws.

[0018] Finally, stays 8 are attached to both sides of the back of the long sides of the top plate 14, and toilet paper 4 is attached here. With the above configuration, the top plate 14 appears diagonally forward when viewed from the person sitting on the toilet seat, allowing the toilet paper 4 to be cut accurately right in front of the person.

[0019] We will now describe the configuration for turning toilet paper 4 into wet paper with alcohol disinfectant, which is another mission of the invention of claim 1. For this purpose, a bottle plate 19 similar to the top plate 14 is created. This is fixed to the plate mounting base 6 below the top plate 14, and an alcohol disinfectant spray bottle 9 is placed on it.

[0020] In order to insert and remove the alcohol disinfectant spray bottle 9 into and from the bottle plate 19, the top plate 14 is provided with a bottle hole 16 that opens near the obtuse angle of the triangle and allows the bottle to be inserted and removed.

[0021] Finally, to spray the alcohol mist, a push button 20 is attached to the head of the alcohol disinfectant spray bottle 9, and a tube 10 extends from the head to near the bottle plate 19. With this configuration, when the push button 20 is pressed with the hand 7, the alcohol disinfectant becomes a mist 11 and turns the toilet paper 4 into moist toilet paper 12.

[0022] The invention of claim 2 is explained with reference to Figure 2. This invention is an invention in which the toilet paper holder of claim 1 is operated by a person with a disability using their feet 5. Therefore, another roll of toilet paper 4 is hung at the bottom of the holder near the feet 5.

[0023] The newly hung toilet paper 4 is attached to the underside of the bottle plate 19. For this purpose, stays 8 are also attached to both ends of the back side of the bottle plate 19, and a bar 13 is stretched between the left and right stays 8, and a spur gear 17 is attached to this.

[0024] With the above configuration, a person with a disability can turn the spur gear 17 with their foot 5 to take out the toilet paper 4. In Figure 2, the spur gear 17 is attached to the right side of the holder, but it can also be attached to the left side, or to both the left and right sides.

[0025] Up to this point, the attachment of the triangular top plate 14 to the plate attachment board 6 in claims 1 and 2 has been illustrated as being attached with the short side of the triangle facing the board, but it is also possible to attach it with the long side of the triangle facing the board as shown in Figure 6.

[0026] The invention of claim 3 is explained with reference to Figure 3. The invention of claim 3 is an invention in which the toilet paper holder of claim 1 or claim 2 is stored in a box and can be moved to a corner of the toilet.

[0027] For this reason, in claims 1 and 2, the top plate 14 and the bottom plate 19 are formed as obtuse triangles, but in claim 3, they are aligned with 90-degree corners to form a right triangle.

[0028] The invention of claim 3 embodies the structure of claim 1 or claim 2 in a single box, so it requires a right-angled triangular base plate 21, which serves as the bottom plate of the box, and two side plates 18. Adding these completes the box-shaped portable toilet paper holder. [Industrial Applicability]

[0029] As mentioned above, alcohol-based toilet paper4 is good for wiping down toilet bowls2 and toilet floors, but another use is for cleaning the anus after defecation. This is not a common use in Japan, where shower toilets are widespread, but it is a reasonable alternative in developing countries where shower toilets are not widely used. I would like to spread this invention worldwide and contribute to the health of the anus in developing countries. [Explanation of symbols]
