Description

  The present invention relates to a roll paper holder for holding kitchen paper and the like. More specifically, by making the material and shape of the roll paper holding member specific, the roll paper can be easily installed and dropped. It relates to a roll paper holder that is extremely difficult to cause.

Kitchen paper is disposable paper used in kitchens and the like for wiping off oil adhering to cooking utensils and tableware, laying paper such as tempura, and removing lye such as boiled food.
There are two types of kitchen paper: a box-type paper such as tissue paper and a roll-type paper such as toilet paper, and roll-type kitchen paper is advantageous in terms of cost.

As a method of fixing the roll type kitchen paper, as disclosed in Patent Document 1 or the like, a vertical pole is provided on the base (stand), and the roll core is inserted into the pole for use. A method is mentioned.
However, such a method requires a space for placing a base. In a small kitchen, there is often no room for such a space.

Patent Literature 2 and Patent Literature 3 describe a method of horizontally fixing roll-type kitchen paper using a kitchen wall surface.
In the method described in FIG. 7 of Patent Document 2 and FIG. 6 of Patent Document 3 as the prior art, the member (arm) that holds the core of the roll is connected to the wall surface at one end and opened. The roll is inserted from the end side. The other open end is raised in a claw shape to prevent the roll from falling off.
Further, in the methods described in FIGS. 2 and 6 of Patent Document 2 and FIGS. 1 to 4 of Patent Document 3, members (arms) for holding the core are provided on both sides of the space in which the roll is held. From the roll core.

However, in the methods of Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3, since there is a space between the arms provided on both sides, the roll comes off from the arm due to vibration when unwinding the kitchen paper from the roll, and falls off. May end up. Also, in the methods described in Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3 as the prior art, the effect of the claw-shaped portion is often insufficient for preventing the drop-off, and the roll may drop off.
When the place where the dropped kitchen paper falls is a sink or the like, the kitchen paper gets wet and is no longer usable. Fortunately, the kitchen paper touches food even if it falls to a place without water and does not get wet.

  To fix toilet paper instead of kitchen paper, one arm that fixes the mandrel from both sides is used as a fixed arm, the other can be opened and closed, and the mandrel and the arm that can be opened and closed are fixed by a magnet (see Patent Document 4) ), And a method of fixing the convex portion at the tip of the support arm projecting through the rotation mechanism by engaging with the engagement concave groove of the support bracket (see Patent Document 5).

Normally, these methods are unlikely to cause the roll paper to fall as in the methods of Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3, but if the fixing part is damaged, the holder can no longer be used. End up.
In the case of a roll paper having a long width such as kitchen paper, the arm for fixing the roll paper is also long, and the shape is likely to be distorted.

  It is uneconomical to replace kitchen paper that still has enough residue due to dropping due to falling off, and a fixing method that can be used for a long time without damage is desired. There was room for improvement in technology.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned background art, and the problem is to provide a roll paper holder that is less likely to cause the roll paper to fall off, is easy to install the roll paper, and is less likely to break. is there.

  As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the inventor cut a part of a member having an elastic closed shape (for example, an annular shape) and closed the roll-shaped article having a core. It can be easily inserted into the shaped member, and after the roll-shaped article is inserted, the closed shaped member naturally returns to its original shape, and the tips of the cut portions are substantially in contact with each other. Therefore, the present inventors have found that the roll-shaped article is extremely difficult to drop off from the closed-shaped member, and completed the present invention.

That is, the present invention is a roll paper holder that has a suspension member and a roll paper holding member, and holds the roll paper substantially horizontally,
The roll paper holding member is formed by cutting a closed member having elasticity at a horizontal holding portion, and the tips of the cutting portions are substantially in contact with each other at normal times. Is to provide.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a roll paper holder in which the roll paper is extremely unlikely to fall off, the roll paper is easily installed, and is not easily damaged.

It is the schematic which shows the roll paper holder of this invention. It is the schematic which shows the state in the middle of installing roll paper in the roll paper holder of this invention. It is the schematic which shows the state which installed the roll paper in the roll paper holder of this invention.

  Hereinafter, although this invention is demonstrated, this invention is not limited to the following embodiment, It can deform | transform and implement arbitrarily.

  An example of the roll paper holder of the present invention is shown in FIG. The roll paper holder 10 has a suspension member 20 and a roll paper holding member 30 and holds the roll paper substantially horizontally.

The suspension member 20 is used to suspend the roll paper holder 10.
FIG. 1 shows, as an example, a hook-like one used for a hanger or the like. However, as long as the roll paper holder 10 can be suspended and used, it is limited to the one shown in FIG. It is not done.
The hook-shaped suspending member 20 shown in FIG. 1 is used by being hung on a fixture installed on a wall or ceiling.

There are no particular limitations on the type of fixture installed on the wall, ceiling, etc. For example, a known fixture such as a suction cup type hook, a magnetic type hook, or a tension rod provided between the walls is used. it can.
The fixture is appropriately selected in consideration of the space occupied by the roll paper. In particular, if you use a suction hook type hook or magnet type hook fixed to the wall, if you use something that protrudes relatively long from the wall, it will be difficult to contact the wall even if a lot of roll paper remains. Hygienic.

The suspending member 20 preferably has a rotation mechanism. For example, in the case of the hook-shaped suspending member 20 as shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable that the base portion of the suspending member 20 can be rotated 360 °.
When the roll paper P is installed in the roll paper holder 10, it is naturally necessary to attach the roll paper in such a direction that the roll paper can be unwound from the front side. It is possible to attach the paper P in an appropriate orientation without considering the orientation. In addition, if there is a rotation mechanism, it is easy to mount even for right-handed or left-handed people.

The roll paper holding member 30 has a portion (horizontal holding portion 31) for holding the roll paper P substantially horizontally when it is suspended by the suspension member 20.
The roll paper holding member 30 is obtained by cutting a closed member having elasticity at the horizontal holding portion 31.
Since the roll paper holding member 30 has elasticity, it is deformed (opened) more than necessary when the roll paper P is installed (attached) or the roll paper P (or the core after using the roll paper P) is removed. For example, unless an excessive force is applied to the bent portion, the shape returns to the original shape during use, and the distal ends of the cut portions 32 are substantially in contact with each other.
The roll paper holder of the present invention uses the elasticity of a closed member to attach and detach the roll paper P (core). It is very easy to attach and detach the paper (core).

At normal times (other than when the roll paper P is attached or removed), the tips of the cutting portions 32 of the horizontal holding portion are substantially in contact with each other.
The “substantially contact” includes not only the state where the tips of the cutting portions 32 are in contact with each other but also the case where the tips of the cutting portions 32 are located very close to each other.
That is, since the roll paper holding member 30 has elasticity, unless it is deformed by applying an excessive force, the roll paper holding member 30 normally returns to its original shape and is in a state where the tips of the cutting portions 32 are in contact with each other. When the paper holding member 30 is deformed and the tips of the cutting portions 32 are not in contact with each other at normal times, the case where the tips are located very close to each other is not out of the scope of the present invention.

  The “closed member” may have any shape as long as it has a shape that makes one round. In the present invention, since a member having a closed shape having elasticity is cut at one place, the roll paper P can be attached and detached from the cutting portion 32 very easily, and the roll paper P does not drop off in normal times.

The portion other than the horizontal holding portion 31 of the roll paper holding member 30 may have any shape as long as the roll paper P can be installed without difficulty.
For example, the roll paper holding member 30 may have a pentagonal shape as illustrated in FIG. 1, a rectangular shape, or a trapezoidal shape.

The horizontal holding portion 31 of the roll paper holding member 30 is a straight portion for holding the roll paper P substantially horizontally. The horizontal holding part 31 is cut at one place.
As described above, at the normal time, the tips of the cutting portions 32 are substantially in contact with each other.

The position of the cutting part 32 of the horizontal holding part 31 is not particularly limited, but the ratio of the length of the shorter horizontal holding part 31A to the length of the longer horizontal holding part 31B among the cut horizontal holding parts 31 is not limited. Is preferably 1: 2 to 1: 1, more preferably 1: 1.5 to 1: 1, and particularly preferably 1: 1.2 to 1: 1.
By being in the above range, when attaching or removing the roll paper P, it is not necessary to apply excessive force by deforming (opening) the closed shape member more than necessary, so attachment or removal is easy. In addition, damage is not likely to occur.

100 mm or more and 500 mm or less are preferable, 150 mm or more and 400 mm or less are more preferable, and the length of the horizontal holding | maintenance part 31 (length of the linear part before a cutting | disconnection) is 200 mm or more and 350 mm or less is especially preferable.
Within the above range, the roll paper holder 10 can be used for various roll papers such as kitchen paper and toilet paper.

Of course, the length of the horizontal holding part 31 is longer than the width of the roll paper P to be used, but the difference between the length of the horizontal holding part 31 and the width of the roll paper P is preferably 10 mm or more and 150 mm or less. 20 mm or more and 100 mm or less is more preferable, and 30 mm or more and 50 mm or less is particularly preferable.
If the lower limit of the difference is greater than or equal to the above, it is not necessary to apply an excessive force at the time of attachment or removal, and it is difficult to break. When the upper limit of the difference is equal to or less than the above, the position of the attached roll paper P in the horizontal direction is stable, and a useless space is not occupied.

The cross-sectional shape of the cutting part 32 may be any shape, for example, a circular shape, a triangular shape, or a rectangular shape.
Sectional area of the cutting portion 32 is preferably 20 mm ² or more 300 mm ² or less, more preferably 30 mm ² or more 200 mm ² or less, particularly preferably 50 mm ² or more 100 mm ² or less.
When the cross-sectional area is within the above range, the strength is sufficient, and the horizontal holding portion 31 is easily bent when performing attachment work or removal work.

  The roll paper holding member 30 preferably has substantially the same cross-sectional shape and cross-sectional area over the entire circumference. It is particularly preferable that the roll paper holding member 30 has a circular cross-sectional shape over the entire circumference because the hand is not easily damaged when the roll paper holding member 30 is gripped.

When attaching the roll paper P, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, first, a slight force is applied to the horizontal holding part 31 to shift the tips of the cutting parts 32 to the longer horizontal holding part 31B. Insert the core of the roll paper P. Then, the roll paper P is hold | maintained like FIG. 3 by inserting the core of roll paper P in the shorter horizontal holding part 31A.
When the roll paper P (core) is removed due to being used or the like, conversely, after removing the core of the roll paper P from the shorter horizontal holding portion 31A to obtain the state shown in FIG. The core of the roll paper P is removed from the horizontal holding portion 31B.
Since the roll paper holding member 30 has elasticity, the vicinity of the cutting portion 32 can be easily bent without applying a large force, and attachment and removal operations can be easily performed.

In the state in which the roll paper P is held, the elastic roll paper holding member 30 naturally returns to its original shape, so that the tips of the cutting portions 32 are substantially in contact with each other.
For this reason, in the present invention, unlike the methods of Patent Document 2 and Patent Document 3 (the arms supporting the roll paper are not in contact with each other), the roll paper P falls off due to vibration when the roll paper P is unwound. There is nothing to do.

In addition, the above-mentioned attachment method and removal method show an example, and another attachment method may be used.
For example, when the roll paper P is attached, the core of the roll paper P may be inserted into the shorter horizontal holding portion 31A first, and then the core of the roll paper P may be inserted into the longer horizontal holding portion 31B. .

  The material of the roll paper holding member 30 may be any material as long as it has elasticity, and examples thereof include polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, acrylic resin, polycarbonate, and polyvinyl chloride.

The material of the roll paper holding member 30 and the suspension member 20 may be the same or different.
The material of the suspension member 20 is not particularly limited as long as the roll paper holder 10 can be suspended.

  The roll paper holding member 30 and the hanging member 20 may be colored or patterned in order to improve design properties.

The thing hold | maintained by the roll paper holder of this invention will not be specifically limited if it is roll-shaped paper, A kitchen paper, towel paper, a toilet paper, etc. are mentioned.
The kitchen paper is generally long in width, and the conventional fixing method tends to cause problems such as breakage of the holder. In addition, kitchen paper used in the kitchen is required to have high hygiene.
Kitchen paper is very suitable as the roll paper held by the roll paper holder of the present invention, which has the characteristics that it is extremely unlikely to fall off and can be easily fixed without breakage.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to examples and comparative examples. However, the present invention is not limited to these examples and comparative examples as long as the gist thereof is not exceeded.

Example 1
A roll paper holder 10 having the shape shown in FIG. 1 was produced. Both the suspension member 20 and the roll paper holding member 30 are made of polypropylene. As the roll paper holding member 30, a circular holding member having a horizontal holding part 31 having a length of 310 mm and a cross-section having a diameter of 0.8 mm over the entire circumference was used. The center of the horizontal holding part 31 was cut.

A kitchen paper roll having a width of 228 mm and a perforation for every 220 mm was attached to the state as shown in FIG. It was easy to install without applying a large force during installation.
The suspension member 20 was hooked on a suction cup type hook attached to the wall, and the roll paper holder 10 holding the kitchen paper roll was installed.

When necessary, kitchen paper was unwound from a roll and cut along perforations for use. The kitchen paper roll did not fall off due to vibration or the like.
After consuming all the kitchen paper, the roll core was removed. It could be easily removed without applying a large force during removal.

  The roll paper holder of the present invention is extremely easy to install roll paper such as kitchen paper, and can be used hygienically, so kitchen paper in kitchens of restaurants and coffee shops, and kitchens of general households. It is widely used for fixing etc.
