Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field This invention relates to a toilet paper holder, and particularly to a toilet paper holder of a type in which roll paper can be attached and removed without removing the paper support member.

Prior Art and its Problems Conventionally, this type of toilet paper holder has been disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 52-20951. In this case, paper support pieces are pivotally attached to a pair of left and right brackets of the holder body so that they can be raised and lowered, and the paper is stored in the accommodation section of the bracket in an upright state, and the support pieces rotate due to their own weight to hold the paper in place. It is configured to hold the core tube of the roll paper in a state where it is turned sideways inward.

However, this toilet paper holder has the following drawbacks. In other words, the holder utilizes the rotation of the paper support piece due to its own weight to shift from the upright state to the inward lying position, so when you pull the roll paper when you use it, the support piece The roll paper may stand up while being dragged by the roll paper, and the roll paper may detach from the holder body. This tendency is particularly noticeable when there is little roll paper left or when the roll paper is pulled strongly. Furthermore, since the accommodating portion of the holder protrudes from the outer surface of the bracket portion, the protruding portions on the left and right sides are inevitably noticeable, making the holder unsightly and lacking in commercial value.

This idea was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and even if the roll paper moves a little during use, the paper support piece can maintain the inward sideways state, and therefore the roll paper can be held in the holder. To provide a toilet paper holder that does not come off from the toilet paper, has no obtrusive protrusion, and is therefore rich in luxury and has high commercial value.

Means for Solving the Problems In the toilet paper holder according to this invention, as shown in the attached drawing, the pair of left and right brackets 2 of the holder main body 1 are hollow-shaped and open rearward. A window 12 in the form of a vertically elongated hole is provided at opposing positions on the inner wall, and a pair of left and right insertion plates 3 to be inserted into the bracket are provided separately from each other. The support pieces 5 are pivoted so as to be tiltable and are urged by an elastic member 11 so as to fall sideways inward of the holder main body 1, and these insertion plates 3 push the pair of paper support pieces 5 against the urging force of the elastic member 11. These upright paper supporting pieces 5 are inserted into the hollow portions of the bracket portion 2 from the rear opening in an upright state against the above-mentioned pressure, and are slid on the inner surface of the hollow portions, so that the paper supporting pieces 5 are inserted into the hollow portions of the bracket portion 2 from the rear openings, and are then inserted into the hollow portions of the bracket portion 2 from the rear openings. This is something that stands out.

As the elastic material 11, for example, a spring material such as a coil spring or a plate spring, or an elastic foam material such as a sponge is used.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of this invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a holder body integrally molded into a planar type, and a pair of left and right bracket portions 2 thereof are hollow-shaped and open only on the back side.

12 is about 3 from the front end of each inner wall of the bracket part 2.
It is a vertically elongated window located at the rear end.

Reference numeral 3 denotes a pair of left and right insertion plates provided separately from the holder main body 1, which have a substantially similar shape to the bracket portion 2. These insertion plates 3 have vertically elongated holes 4 formed therein. The position and size of the elongated holes 4 are set so as to match the windows 12 when each insertion plate 3 is inserted and fixed into the cavity of each bracket part 2, as will be described later.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a pair of left and right paper support pieces disposed in each elongated hole 4, respectively, and has a shape and size such that it can be accommodated in the elongated hole 4 in an upright state. A small hole 10 for shaft insertion is provided at the base end of the support piece 5 in the front-rear direction, and the support shaft 6 is inserted through this.
Both front and rear ends of the coaxial shaft 6 are supported by shaft supports 7 provided at the lower portions of both side edges of the elongated hole 4. In this way, each paper support piece 5 is attached to the insertion plate 3 so as to be able to rise and fall. A coil spring, which is an elastic material, is wound around the support shaft 6, and the paper support piece 5 is urged horizontally inward by the coil spring. At this time, the support piece 5 is in contact with the lower end of the elongated hole 4 and is prevented from rotating downward from the horizontal state.

At the rear end of each insertion plate 3, two flange portions 8 with screw holes are provided facing inward. These flange parts 8 are brought into contact with the back part of the holder main body 1 when the insertion plate 3 is inserted into each bracket part 2.

On the other hand, on the back of the holder main body 1, a total of four screw holes 9 are provided at positions corresponding to the screw holes of the flange portion 8 with screw holes and having the same diameter as the screw holes.

A method for inserting and fixing each insertion plate 3 configured as described above into the holder main body 1 will be explained.

First, each insertion plate 3 is inserted into the hollow portion of the pair of left and right bracket portions 2 of the holder main body 1 from the rear opening thereof. At this time, the paper support piece 5 is housed in the elongated hole 4 in an upright position so as not to interfere with insertion. When the insertion is completed, each support piece 5 projects horizontally inward from the window 12 of the holder body 1 due to the elasticity of the coil spring serving as the elastic body 11. At this time, the four screw holes of the flange portion 8 with screw holes overlap the four screw holes 9, respectively. Finally, each insertion plate 3 and the holder main body 1 are fixed with screws.

Effects In the toilet paper holder of this invention, as mentioned above, the paper support piece is biased by an elastic material so as to fall sideways inward of the holder, so the roll paper may move slightly during use. Also, the paper support piece can maintain its sideways inward position without rotating upwards, so there is no risk that the paper support piece will stand up and the roll paper will fall off from the holder, unlike in the conventional case. It is something. In addition, as the holder body is provided with a pair of left and right hollow brackets as described above, there is no unsightly protrusion like in conventional ones, and the product has a luxurious feel and product value. This is extremely expensive.

Furthermore, since the pair of left and right insertion plates 3 to be inserted into the bracket are provided separately from each other, if these insertion plates are integrated, the dimensional accuracy in the width direction must be made strict or the hollow bracket will form. While problems occur when inserting the insertion plate into the
With this invention, even if the insertion plate does not have strict dimensional accuracy, there is no problem in assembly.

In addition, each inner wall of the bracket part 2 is provided with a vertically long hole-shaped window 12 for protruding the paper support piece 5, which significantly increases the strength of the product compared to a case where a notch is provided in the same inner wall. can be increased to

Furthermore, since the paper support piece 5 is pivotally attached to the inner surface of the insertion plate 3 in advance so as to be freely tiltable, the paper support piece 5 is more easily attached to the paper support piece than a structure in which the paper support piece is assembled at the same time as the insertion plate is inserted into the hollow bracket. The support piece 5 can be attached stably, and the durability of the product can be greatly improved.
