Description

  The present invention relates to a wall-mounted paper holder device, and more particularly to a structure for attaching a paper holder to a wall surface.

  Various proposals have been made regarding the paper holder mounting structure in the paper holder device that is mounted on the vertical wall surface of the toilet. For example, as shown in Patent Document 1, the paper holder is mounted on the wall surface in a single state. As shown in Patent Document 2, there is known a configuration in which a paper holder is incorporated and attached at an appropriate position of a fixture such as a shelf attached to a wall surface.

  On the other hand, a handrail is often installed on the wall surface of the toilet. In that case, for example, as shown in Patent Document 3 (particularly, FIG. 2), the handrail is usually provided separately from the paper holder. is there.

  However, as shown in Patent Document 1, in the case where a paper holder is attached to a wall surface in a single state, the paper holder has only its original function, that is, a toilet paper holding function, and is not in the toilet. In order to have other functions, it must be provided separately from the paper holder, and it is difficult to say that it is a preferable form considering that the toilet is a limited space. It is.

  In addition, as shown in Patent Document 2, a configuration in which a paper holder is incorporated at a proper position of equipment such as a shelf attached to a wall surface is a configuration that assumes that there is room in the toilet space. It is difficult to apply when there is no room. This also applies to a configuration in which the handrail is provided independently of the paper holder as disclosed in Patent Document 3.

  Considering these points, it is considered effective to incorporate other functions (for example, a handrail function) in addition to the function as a paper holder in a more compact configuration.

  Accordingly, the present invention has been made with the object of providing a paper holder device that can be applied to places where there is not enough space by incorporating functions other than the paper holder function in a compact structure. It is a thing.

  In the present invention, the following configuration is adopted as a specific means for solving such a problem.

  In the first invention of the present application, in the paper holder device including the paper holder 1 installed on the wall surface 4 via the holder support 2, the holder support 2 is extended from the wall 4 in a substantially horizontal direction. On the other hand, on the lower surface side of the holder support 2, the paper holder 1 is placed in a first position housed on the lower side of the holder support 2, and the first position projecting sideways from the lower side of the holder support 2. It is characterized by being mounted so as to be movable between two positions.

  According to a second invention of the present application, in the paper holder device according to the first invention, the holder support 2 is attached to the wall surface fixing member 21 fixed to the wall surface 4, the paper holder 1 is attached, and the wall surface is mounted. A holder mounting member 24 is connected to the fixing member 21 so as to be relatively displaceable between a first position and a second position in a substantially horizontal direction, and the holder mounting member 24 is connected to the fixing member 21 at the first position. The paper holder 1 is housed under the wall surface fixing material 21, and the paper holder 1 is configured to project sideways from the lower side of the wall surface fixing material 21 in the second position. .

  The third invention of the present application is characterized in that, in the paper holder device according to the second invention, one end of the handrail 3 arranged along the wall surface 4 is fixed to the wall surface fixing member 21.

The holder support 2 has the same basic configuration as that of the holder support 2 in the first embodiment. The difference is that the configuration of the wall surface fixing material 21 and the mounting base material 23 are different. It is a configuration. Hereinafter, this difference will be mainly described.

  The wall surface fixing material 21 is slightly different in function from the wall surface fixing material 21 in the first embodiment. That is, when the wall surface fixing material 21 of the first embodiment is used as a handrail, the wall surface fixing material 21 has a use mode in which a hand or an elbow is attached to the upper surface of the wall surface fixing material 21, or the outer peripheral portion of the wall surface fixing material 21 is Although the use aspect to hold was assumed, the wall surface fixing member 21 of this embodiment is configured with emphasis on the use form for holding the wall surface fixing member 21 rather than the use form for attaching the hand to the wall surface fixing member 21. It is said.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the wall-fixing material 21 is formed into a U-shaped planar form having a grounding portion to the wall surface 4 on the wall surface 4 side, thereby improving gripping ability by hand. . Further, from the viewpoint of further enhancing the gripping property, the wall surface fixing member 21 is made of a “rubber wood structure”, that is, a plate material having a U-shaped flat form as a base material, and its upper surface side is covered with a rubber material to have flexibility. The structure is A backing portion 26 constituted by a part of the mounting base material 23 described below is fastened and fixed to the lower surface of the wall surface fixing member 21.

  The mounting base 23 is composed of a rectangular flat metal plate. In this case, a U-shaped planar shape corresponding to the U-shape of the wall surface fixing member 21 with its upper end edge extending in a substantially orthogonal direction. This is the backing portion 26. Then, the mounting base material 23 is abutted against the wall surface 4 and fastened and fixed, and the wall surface fixing material 21 is fastened and fixed to the backing portion 26. Thus, the wall surface fixing member 21 is fixed to the wall surface 4 side through the mounting base material 23. In addition, the high attachment rigidity with respect to the said wall surface 4 of the said wall surface fixing material 21 is ensured by the rib 27 being provided in the corner part of the said mounting base material 23 and the said backing part 26. FIG.

  The holder mounting member 24 is formed of a rectangular flat metal plate, and is connected to one side 23a of the mounting base 23 via a hinge 25. The hinge 25 serves as a "first position" with the hinge 25 as a pivot. The position is changed by pivoting between the “second positions” as in the first embodiment.

  As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the paper holder 1 is attached to the holder attachment member 24 of the holder support 2 configured as described above. The paper holder 1 is moved between the “first position” and the “second position” by changing the position of the holder mounting member 24 to the “use position” shown in FIG. The point that the position is changed between “working positions” shown in FIG. 10 is the same as in the case of the first embodiment.

  Since the configuration and operational effects other than those described above are the same as in the case of the first embodiment, the corresponding description is used and the description thereof is omitted here.
