Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial application field> The present invention is a toilet paper holder for holding general toilet paper rolled around a paper tube in a state of use in a toilet. Regarding.

<Prior art> Most toilet paper currently on the market is in the form of a roll, in which a long strip with perforations at appropriate intervals is wound around a paper tube as a core. The holder generally has a structure in which a shaft inserted through a paper tube is rotatably spanned between a pair of opposing support plates.

<Problem to be solved by the invention> Therefore, since only one toilet paper roll can be attached to the toilet paper holder mentioned above, it is necessary to place a spare toilet paper roll in the corner of the toilet. Or, it is attached to the wall of the toilet using a separate holder. Furthermore, each time a toilet paper roll is used, the shaft must be removed, inserted into the paper tube of a new toilet paper roll, and then reassembled between both support plates, which is extremely troublesome. .

The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to store and hold multiple rolls of toilet paper, and also to be able to use the rolls one by one, and to remove the rolls each time the roll is used. To provide a toilet paper holder which can switch the next toilet paper roll to a usage state with an extremely simple operation.

<Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the toilet paper holder of the present invention has a bottomed tube into which a plurality of toilet paper rolls can be inserted from above and stored in a line in the vertical direction. A holding case with a shape of a , a support shaft that forms an outlet for the lowest toilet paper roll and that comes into contact with the second toilet paper roll from the bottom and locks it to the lowest toilet paper roll with a gap therebetween. , a blade piece is integrally mounted horizontally and rotatably between opposing side plates of the holding case in parallel to the rotation axis, and allows the second toilet paper roll from the bottom to drop by rotating the blade piece on the support shaft. The gist is the structure provided.

<Function> When multiple rolls of toilet paper rolls are inserted into the holding case and the spindle is rotated, the lowest toilet paper roll is scraped off by the blades that rotate together with the spindle, and the toilet paper roll is scraped off the rotating shaft. It falls upwards, detaches from the second toilet paper roll from the bottom, and becomes freely rotatable by the rotating shaft. Therefore, this lowest toilet paper roll can be used while being pulled out from the drawer opening. When this lowest toilet paper roll is used up, after taking out its paper tube from the drawer opening, by rotating the spindle, the second toilet paper roll from the bottom is moved by the blade in the same way as in the previous operation. The toilet paper roll falls onto the rotating shaft and is ready for use.

<Example> An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 4 all show one embodiment of the present invention, and in these figures, 1 indicates a holding case that becomes the holder body, a front plate 1a, side plates 1
b, 1c, a back plate 1d, and a bottom plate 1e to form a rectangular tube shape with a bottom. The depth between the back plate 1d and the toilet paper rolls P1 to P4 before use is slightly larger than the diameter of the toilet paper rolls P1 to P4 before use, and as is clear from FIG. Rolls P1 to P4
can be stored in a line vertically.

The front plate 1a has a window 2 bored in the middle thereof, and a toilet paper outlet 3 in the lower part. Moreover, three rotating shafts 4 are installed in parallel between the both side plates 1b and 1c at the bottom, and each rotating shaft 4 moves the toilet paper rolls P1 to P4 placed thereon to the outlet 3. They are positioned and provided so as to face each other.

At a position above the outlet 3, a support shaft 6 having three blade pieces 5 at equal intervals on its circumference is rotatably spanned between both side plates 1b and 1c. An operating knob 7 is integrally fixed to one end on the outside. In addition, a pressing plate spring 8 is attached to a portion of the back plate 1d that is substantially opposite to the support shaft 6 in order to make a commercially available small-diameter toilet paper roll come into contact with the blade piece 5 without falling. ing. Furthermore, a lid plate 9 for opening and closing the insertion opening at the top of the holding case 1 is provided.
An operating hole 10 is provided in the bottom plate 1e to insert a finger to rotate the toilet paper roll on the rotating shaft 4 so that the end of the paper faces the outlet 3.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained.

When the lid plate 9 is opened and a roll of toilet paper roll P1 is inserted, the toilet paper roll P1 comes into contact with the support shaft 6 and is locked as shown in FIG. Here, when the spindle 6 is rotated in the direction of the arrow in the figure using the operating knob 7, the blade piece 5 integrated with the spindle 6 scrapes the toilet paper roll P1 downward, as shown in FIG. It acts on Therefore, by rotating the support shaft 6 about 2 to 3 times, the toilet paper roll P1
falls onto each rotating shaft 4. Here, the operation hole 10
Put your finger in this toilet paper roll P
1, so that the paper end faces the outlet 3. After that, 3 rolls of toilet paper roll P
Insert 2 to P4 in sequence. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the second toilet paper roll P2 from the bottom is held in contact with the blade 5 by the leaf spring 8, and the bottom toilet paper roll P1
located at a distance from the Therefore, since the lowest toilet paper roll P1 is rotatably supported by the rotating shaft 4 independently of the other toilet paper rolls P2 to P4, this toilet paper can be freely moved from the drawer opening 3 or the like. It can be pulled out and used.

When the lowest toilet paper roll P1 is used up, after taking out its paper tube from the drawer port 3, turn the operating knob 7 two to three times.
By the same action as described above, the second toilet paper roll P2 from the bottom is scraped off by the blade 5 and falls onto the rotating shaft 4, and is set in a usable state. That is, unlike conventional holders, there is no need for complicated operations such as inserting a shaft into a paper tube and passing it between both side plates, and by simply rotating the operating knob 7, a new toilet paper roll P2 can be created.
can be set. Furthermore, since the usage status of the stored toilet paper rolls P1 to P4 can be clearly checked through the window 2, they can be replenished all at once at an appropriate time. Furthermore, even commercially available toilet paper rolls with a small diameter can be locked to the support shaft 6 by the pressing leaf spring 8, so that they can be used without any problem.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and may be adapted to accommodate, for example, four or more toilet paper rolls.

<Effects of the invention> As detailed above, according to the toilet paper holder according to the invention, it is possible to store a plurality of toilet paper rolls vertically in a row in the holding case, and the support shaft allows the toilet paper rolls to be stored from the bottom up. The second toilet paper roll is locked, and the lowest toilet paper roll is rotated smoothly by the rotating shaft so that it can be pulled out from the drawer opening and used. As the shaft rotates, the second toilet paper roll from the bottom is dropped appropriately, so spare toilet paper rolls can also be stored and used one after the other, and a new toilet paper roll can be added just by rotating the support shaft. The paper roll can be set in a usable state.
