Description

Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a stowable toilet apparatus having a toilet bowl and a storage section which allows the toilet to be put in and out of a storage position and a use position. In particular, the present invention relates to a retractable toilet device that can be arranged in a limited small space such as a service room in a house, a toilet in a small room, and a hospital room. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when it is necessary to dispose a toilet in a limited small space such as a hospital room, the space can be effectively saved by using a retractable toilet device provided with a storage portion capable of taking in and out of the toilet. To use it. This storage type toilet apparatus has a box-shaped storage section having a space for storing a toilet, and this storage section is fixed to a wall surface of a room or incorporated in a wall surface, for example. In the case of a Western-style toilet, a part of the toilet is swingably supported in a box-shaped storage section, and when the toilet is not used, the seating surface of the seating portion is perpendicular to the floor surface In some cases, the toilet bowl is stored in a box-shaped storage section, and when used, the toilet bowl is folded down so that the seating surface is horizontal and the toilet bowl is taken out of the storage section. [0004] When using a toilet, it is common to use toilet paper. This toilet paper is usually wound in a roll and held by a paper holder fixed to a wall or the like of a room. To use. [0005] In the case of a retractable toilet device, when the toilet is not in use, the paper holder stores not only the toilet but also toilet paper so that it cannot be seen from the outside. The paper holder is fixed in the storage unit regardless of the loading and unloading, and the toilet paper is pulled out from the paper holder while being held by the paper holder in the storage unit. [0006] However, in the retractable toilet device, a Western-style toilet or a Japanese-style toilet is arranged such that the user's back faces the wall surface when using the toilet. In this case, since the paper holder is stored in the storage portion fixed to the wall surface, the toilet paper is located on the back side of the user. Therefore, the user
You must bend your body or pull your toilet paper out of the paper holder by lifting your body away from the toilet bowl. The present invention is intended to solve such a problem. When the toilet is not used, the toilet paper can be stored in the storage section together with the toilet, and when the toilet is used, the toilet paper can be easily placed in a comfortable posture. To provide a retractable toilet device that can be pulled out from a paper holder. [0008] In order to achieve the above object, a stowable toilet apparatus according to the present invention includes a toilet and a storage portion that allows the toilet to be moved into and out of a storage position and a use position. In the retractable toilet device, the storage unit is capable of storing a paper holder for holding toilet paper, and the paper holder is repositioned between a storage position in the storage unit and a use position pulled out horizontally from the storage unit. It is configured to be supported by the storage unit via a possible slide mechanism.

And is supported by the storage unit 3. The toilet seat 12 of the toilet 1 is supported by the toilet main body 11 via a swing pin 15 so as to be swingable with respect to the toilet main body 11. A drain trap 5 communicating with the toilet body 11 is provided below the toilet body 11 in the storage section 3, and a water supply pipe 6 is provided adjacent to the toilet body 11 for supplying water into the toilet body 11. ing. Further, in the present embodiment, the roll-shaped toilet paper 2 is held by the paper holder 4, and the paper holder 4 is positioned between the storage position (the virtual line c in FIG. 1) in the storage section 3. , And is supported by the storage unit 3 via a slide mechanism 7 that can be repositioned to a use position (solid line d in FIG. 1) pulled out from the storage unit 3 in the horizontal direction. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the paper holder 4 has a pair of side walls 41, 41 and a pair of side walls 41, 41.
41, a rear wall portion connecting the inner sides of the rear portions 41 to each other;
An umbrella portion 43 swingably supported by 41;
A roll support portion 44 is provided so as to be foldable on the opposing surfaces of the toilet paper 41, and the leading end portion is inserted into the cylindrical portion 22 of the toilet paper 2. As shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the slide mechanism 7 is composed of two rail members 7A, which are arranged vertically, and the rail members 7A are fixed rails fixed to the wall surface of the storage portion 3. 71, and a first rail 72 that fits and slides on the fixed rail 71 with a width smaller than the fixed rail 71.
And a second rail 73 that fits into the first rail 72 and slides with a smaller width than the first rail 72. The fixed rail 71, the first rail 72, and the second rail 73 have substantially the same length.
The state where the slide length overlapped so that the first rail 72 and the second rail 73 almost fit in the inside is minimum (FIG. 8).
From the state), the first rail 72 is pulled out from the fixed rail 71, and further, the slide length from which the second rail 73 is drawn out from the first rail 72 is the longest state (the state shown in FIGS. 3, 6, and 7). You can slide. Incidentally, between the fixed rail 71 and the first rail 72, and between the first rail 72 and the second rail 73, stopper mechanisms 74, 74 for preventing the rails from coming off and sliding of the rails smoothly. Multiple balls 75 to do
Is incorporated.
