Definitions
- the invention relates to a toilet paper dispenser with a housing that accommodates several toilet paper rolls sitting with their cardboard sleeves on a mandrel in a shaft, the lowest of which is accessible through a removal opening of the housing on a housing bottom serving as a rolling surface, which has an opening through which one empty cardboard tube fits through.
- toilet paper dispensers are known from practice. They have a rigid mandrel that projects freely through the bottom opening. The play of the cathedral allows the cardboard tube to slide down undesirably before the paper has completely rolled off it. A complete paper consumption is therefore not guaranteed. A complex spring mechanism on the mandrel, which absorbs the pressure of the upper reserve rollers, is also required.
- the object of the invention is to provide a toilet paper dispenser of the type mentioned which is inexpensive, robust and easy to use, and which ensures that paper is used completely.
- a toilet paper dispenser the mandrel of which is elastic and can be deflected manually with pretension at the edge of the opening for the empty cardboard tube.
- the mandrel has the play required to pull off the cardboard sleeve in the opening.
- the cardboard tube cannot fall off by itself when the toilet paper roll in use is empty.
- the user bends the mandrel slightly away from the edge of the opening and pushes the cardboard tube through. After release, the mandrel springs back into the contact position at the edge of the opening due to its inherent elasticity.
- the housing base in the vicinity of the base opening can have a preferably surrounding elevation, which is so narrow that a toilet paper roll with only a small part of its end face rests against it and, in the rest, has rotational play with the housing base. This ensures that the toilet paper roll can be easily rotated.
- the floor elevation acts as a turntable.
- the cross section of the dome is circular, at least at the level of the housing base.
- the opening is oval, and the arrangement is selected so that the mandrel rests with prestress on one of the arcuate edge sections of the opening.
- An oval opening in the floor leaves enough floor space so that the toilet paper rolls can be easily rotated.
- An empty cardboard tube can be easily and conveniently removed through the opening after deflecting the pre-tensioned rod towards the center of the oval.
- the mandrel preferably protrudes downward through the opening for the cardboard tube. It therefore offers good guidance when removing an empty cardboard tube.
- the housing can have an edge web that blends in with the projecting mandrel end and projects downward from the housing base.
- the rigid mandrel has a spring clip that separates the toilet paper rolls kept in stock from the toilet paper roll in use and must be manually operated to bring the next roll into the unwind position. This is quite cumbersome and the mechanism is potentially prone to failure.
- the invention therefore provides that the mantle of the cathedral passes smoothly and that no other spacer is effective between toilet paper rolls sitting on the mandrel. You have a particularly simple structure with a minimum of mechanically moving parts. When unrolling toilet paper, all the rolls of the stack rotate. This is accompanied by a braking effect that reduces consumption without impairing ease of use.
- the wall of the shaft opposite the removal opening is preferably bevelled. This will automatically move the toilet paper roll to the exact unwind position.
- the mandrel can taper towards its lower end. This makes it easier to insert the dome into the cardboard sleeves for threading the toilet paper rolls when loading the toilet paper dispenser.
- the mandrel is preferably fixedly attached to a removable cover of the housing.
- the mandrel can have a cylindrical hollow body and the cover can have a pin on which the hollow body can be attached.
- the hollow body can be held by the fit of the connector on the pin or glued to the lid or welded.
- the mandrel is made up of at least two hollow bodies which can be plugged together and which can be firmly connected to one another or glued or welded to one another by the snug fit of the plug connection.
- mandrels of different lengths for different sizes of toilet paper dispensers which differ in the number of toilet paper rolls kept in stock, can be assembled from a few identical components.
- the cover is preferably locked in place on the housing. It can be held by several locking tongues, which are operated with a socket wrench or the like to release the cover.
- the lid is held securely in its closed position ten. It can only be opened with a special socket wrench, so that the toilet paper rolls are perfectly hygienic and secure against theft.
- the latching tongues are preferably interchangeably attached to the housing. They can be replaced if necessary.
- the toilet paper dispenser according to the invention is preferably made of plastic. This makes it light, robust and easy to clean.
- a support made of metal, in particular a plate made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, can be firmly attached to the top of the cover. Such a pad is easy to clean and protects the lid against cigarette fire.
- the arrangement of an ashtray on the top of the lid is also possible.
- the ashtray is preferably made of steel.
- the shaft of the housing can be provided with windows, preferably in the form of vertical side slots. Such windows allow easy inventory control.
- the toilet paper dispenser has a housing 10 which is mirror-symmetrical to a longitudinal center plane 12, the section plane of FIG. 2.
- the housing 10 forms an essentially cylindrical shaft which is suitable for receiving a plurality of toilet paper rolls stacked one above the other in the face-to-face arrangement.
- the shaft consists of a semi-cylindrical front section 14 with a smaller diameter and semi-cylindrical rear sections 16, 18 attached to it at the top and bottom with a correspondingly larger diameter.
- the rear parts 16, 18 are connected via continuous housing side walls 20. At the back, the housing between the rear parts 16, 18 is open to save material and weight.
- the shaft At the lower end of the shaft there is an essentially flat floor 22, which is attached to the lower rear section 18 and serves as a rolling surface.
- the front part 14 of the housing 10 ends at a distance above the bottom 22, so that a removal opening 24 is formed through which the bottom toilet paper roll standing on the bottom 22 is accessible.
- the inner wall 26 of the lower rear section 18 of the housing 10 opposite the removal opening 24 is chamfered all around. It forms a ramp on which advancing toilet paper rolls slide down and are steered into a forward unwind position.
- the housing 10 is closed by a cover 28 which can be inserted suitably into the shaft.
- the cover 28 is held in the closed state by three locking tongues 30, which are arranged centrally on the inner wall of the front section 14 of the housing 10.
- the locking tongues 30 are accessible from the outside through three actuating openings 32 lying next to one another at the same height. To release the cover 28, all three locking tongues 30 are lifted out of their locking position at the same time with a comb-type socket wrench.
- the locking tongues 30 are detachably attached to the housing 10 so that they can be replaced if necessary.
- the lid 28 carries on the inside a mandrel 34 which, when the lid 28 is closed, passes through the cardboard tubes of the toilet paper rolls stacked one above the other.
- the mandrel 34 consists of hollow bodies 36, 38 which are in the form of a plug-in pin connection.
- the cover 28 has a circular cylindrical hollow pin 40 formed on the inside, onto which an essentially circular cylindrical hollow body 36 type 1 of the dome 34 can be plugged flush.
- the lower end of the hollow body type 1 has a diameter recess on which both other hollow bodies type 1 and the hollow body 38 shown in the drawing type 2 of the dome 34 fit.
- the latter is also essentially circular cylindrical, but is provided with opposite bevels 42, thanks to which the lower section of the dome 34 tapers approximately over the height of a toilet paper roll.
- the hollow body type 2 and thus the mandrel 34 has a tapered cone tip 44, which facilitates the threading of toilet paper rolls onto the mandrel 34.
- the length of the dome 34 can be varied by the number of type 1 hollow bodies used and can be adapted to housing shaft lengths for two, three and more toilet paper rolls.
- the plug-in parts, i. H. the hollow pin 40 of the cover 28 and the hollow body 36, 38 of the dome 34 are each firmly glued or welded together.
- the bottom 22 of the housing 10 has an oval opening 46 which is dimensioned such that the empty cardboard tube remaining after the last sheet of toilet paper has been used fits through the bottom toilet paper roll.
- the opening 46 is located in the front area of the bottom 22. Its central axis lies in the longitudinal center plane 12 of the housing 10.
- the bottom 22 has in the edge area the oval opening 46 has an elevation 52 which serves as a turntable. It is an edge web which extends around the front and laterally around the opening 46 and runs out like a ramp towards the rear of the housing.
- the elevation 52 is so narrow that a toilet paper roll comes into contact with it only with a part of its lateral end face and has the rest of the rotational play to the bottom 22 of the housing 10. This ensures low-friction rolling.
- the mandrel 34 projects downward through the opening 46 in the base 22.
- the housing 10 is provided with an edge web 48 projecting downward from the base 22 and blending the mandrel end.
- the mandrel 34 When the cover 28 is closed, the mandrel 34 assumes an essentially central, axial position in the shaft. It passes through the rear semicircular part of the oval opening 46, the diameter of which is somewhat larger than that of the dome 34, and is supported on the edge of the opening 46.
- the mandrel 34 is elastic, and it comes to rest with a prestress on the edge of the opening 46, which results from the deflection by an amount X from a fictitious position shown in FIG. 2, in which the mandrel 34 would be relaxed.
- the mandrel 34 can be elastically bent by hand and moved forward in the opening 46 of the bottom 22.
- the cover 28 is opened and the shaft is filled with a number of conventional toilet paper rolls which are arranged one above the other in the face-to-face system.
- the mandrel 34 is threaded through the cardboard tubes of the toilet paper rolls and the bottom opening 46, at the rear edge of which it rests with prestress after the cover 28 has been closed.
- the user accesses the bottom toilet paper roll of the stack through the removal opening 24. He tears off toilet paper sheets, rotating the entire stack of rolls. Thanks to its pre-tensioning, the mandrel 34 holds the cardboard tube of the lowest toilet paper roll in the unwind position up to the last sheet. The user then grips the cardboard tube and pushes it downward by deflecting the dome 34 through the bottom opening 46, whereupon the next toilet paper roll moves up.
- the toilet paper dispenser is made entirely of plastic.
- a support plate 50 made of aluminum is glued or welded onto the top of the cover 28 against cigarette fire.
- an ashtray 54 can also be attached to the top of the cover 28, which preferably consists of chromium-nickel steel.
- the figure also shows windows 56 in the form of elongated vertical slots provided on both sides in the side walls 20 of the housing 10 and used for stock control.
