Furthermore, the portable toilet 13 according to the present invention is such that the storage box 1 is formed in a square shape, and the circular tubes 2a, 2b, 2c are used so that plastic bags 3, paper diapers, tissue paper, etc. are formed in the four corners. The storage unit 8 may be provided.
[0009]
In the portable toilet 13 of the present invention, the cylinder is stored in the storage box 1 when not in use, and the cylinders 2a, 2b, and 2c can be taken out from the storage box 1 when used. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the cylinders 2a, 2b, and 2c are taken out from the storage box 1 and can be used. FIG. 2 is a structural diagram showing the configuration inside the cylinders 2a, 2b, 2c when the portable toilet 13 of the present invention is taken out into a usable state. In the removed state, the plate spring 11 pushes the concave stopper 10 to hit the convex portion 10 'of the cylinders 2b and 2c on the upper side, thereby preventing the entire cylinders 2a, 2b and 2c from falling. When the cylinders 2a, 2b, and 2c are stored, the convex portions 10 ′ of the cylinders 2a, 2b, and 2c can be easily dropped and stored by removing the convex portions 10 ′ from the concave stoppers 10. Since the concave stopper 10 is pushed by the leaf spring 11 even when stored, the concave stopper 10 further pushes the outside of the cylinders 2a, 2b, 2c, so that the cylinders 2a, 2b, 2c being conveyed are shaken. And movement can be suppressed.
