Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a holder for roll paper such as toilet paper, which is installed in a restroom or the like.

[Prior Art] Generally, a paper cutting plate provided in a paper holder is pivoted at its base end, and is vertically rotatable at its front end. This paper cutting board is always in contact with the paper so as to cover it.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the conventional paper holder, as the paper is consumed and the diameter of the paper becomes smaller, the paper cutting board becomes more deeply tilted forward. This deeply inclined posture of the paper cutting board is far from the posture of the paper cutting board when new paper is attached, as intended by the paper holder designer.
Paper holders often fail to exhibit their original beauty.

Also, when the diameter of the paper becomes smaller,
The paper cutting board covers the paper deeply so as to hide it. Therefore, the user has to peel off the paper cutting board and insert his/her finger between the paper cutting board and the paper, which is inconvenient.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention includes: a mounting portion that is attached to the wall of the restroom and constitutes the rear surface of the paper holder; a pair of side plate portions that protrude forward from the mounting portion; In a paper holder, the paper cutting plate is provided on the upper surface of the roll paper storage part between the side plate parts and is rotatable about the rear side. A support plate is disposed on the front edge side of the upper surface portion, and a support plate that can be tilted up and down with the rear side as a rotation center is installed on the rear edge side of the upper surface portion, and the paper cutting board is placed on the front side of the support plate. A first stopper is provided, the rear side of which is pivotally connected, and the upper rotation limit of the paper cutting plate is set at a position where the paper cutting plate and the supporting plate are not bent. An elastic member is provided that biases the paper cutting board to the upper rotation limit, and the support plate is rotated downward to a position where the upper surface of the support plate and the upper surface of the side plate are flush with each other. It is characterized in that a second stopper is provided to limit the movement.

[Function] In the paper holder of the present invention, the paper cutting plate is urged to rotate upward by the elastic member, and the upper rotation limit is restricted by the first stopper, so that the paper is always The cutting plate and support plate assume a series of unflexed positions. In addition, this support plate
With the stopper, it always maintains a position flush with the top surface of the side plate. This improves the appearance of the paper holder. Also, even if the diameter of the paper becomes smaller, there will be a gap between the paper and the paper cutting board, so
Easy to pull out paper. Furthermore, when various functional parts are provided on the paper-cutting board, the position of the paper-cutting board becomes constant, making it easier to operate the functional parts.

In addition, in the paper holder of the present invention, when cutting paper, it is sufficient to push the paper cutting plate to bring the paper cutting plate into contact with the paper and cut the paper.

[Example] Examples will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a paper holder 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention attached to a wall surface 12 (however, only the controller 30 is shown separately), and FIG. 2 is a front view of the paper holder. The left half shows a front external view, and the right half shows a front sectional view. Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the - line in Figure 2, Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the - line in Figure 3, Figure 5 is an assembled perspective view of the support section, and Figure 6 is a plan view of the paper cutting board. , FIG. 7 is a sectional view taken along the line -- in FIG. 6.

This paper holder 10 includes a pair of side plates 14 and 16 that are placed opposite each other as shown in FIG. Supports 18 and 20 are provided on opposing surfaces of the side plate parts 14 and 16.
The hollow core 22a of the roll paper 22 inserted between the two can be held from both left and right sides. A paper cutting board 24 and a paper cutting board 24 are provided between the side plate parts 14 and 16.
A support plate 25 is provided, and the support plate 25
is pivoted to the upper casing 28 of the paper holder by a pivot pin 26 (see FIG. 3).

The paper cutting board 24 and the support plate 25 are pivotally connected by a shaft 70. Ribs 72 and 74 are protruded from the sides of the back surfaces of the paper cutting board 24 and the support plate 25, and the shaft 70 passes through these ribs 72 and 74.
Reference numeral 76 is a ring for preventing movement of the shaft 70 in the axial direction, and the ring 76 is engaged with the shaft 70.

A spring (helical coil spring) 78 as an elastic member is wound around the shaft 70. One end of the spring 78 contacts the back surface of the paper cutting board 24, and the other end contacts the back surface of the support plate 25. ing. and,
The paper cutting plate 24 is biased by the spring 78 so that its front end rotates upward. The rear end surface of the paper cutting board 24 and the front end surface of the support plate 25 can come into contact with each other, and the paper cutting board 24 is pushed up by a spring 78 to a position where these end surfaces come into contact with each other. Therefore, in this embodiment, the rear end surface of the paper cutting plate 24 and the front end surface of the support plate 25 constitute a first stopper.

Reference numeral 80 in FIGS. 6 and 7 indicates a stopper for preventing the spring 78 from moving in the axial direction of the shaft 70. The stopper 80 is provided to protrude from the back surface of the paper cutting board 24.

As shown in FIG. 3, the rear end of the rib 74 of the support plate 25 has convex portions 14c and 16c (however, 16c is not shown) projecting from the opposing surfaces of the side plate portions 14 and 16.
By coming into contact with this, the structure is such that it does not rotate downwards beyond the posture shown in FIG. Therefore, in this embodiment, the rear end of this rib 74 and the convex portion 14c,
16c constitutes a second stopper.

Recesses 14a and 16a, which are L-shaped in side view, are formed in the upper surfaces of the side plates 14 and 16. Support plate 2
5 is also concavely bent into an L-shape in side view following the recesses 14a and 16a, thereby forming a controller installation portion 25a consisting of an L-shaped corner. Then, the toilet controller 30 is attached to the paper cutting board 24 so as to engage with the controller installation part 25a.
, and is fixed with screws 31.

The toilet controller 30 includes control switches 30a for various electrical devices such as a hot water washing device, an air conditioner in the toilet room, a heater for the heated toilet seat, lighting in the toilet room, and sound equipment installed in the toilet room. The output signal is configured to be input to each electrical device in the form of radio waves, sound waves, light, or the like.
(The signal may also be output using a lead wire.) As clearly shown in FIG. 3, a recess 32 for attaching the paper holder 10 is formed in the wall surface 12, The rear side thereof is fitted into the recess 32 and fixed to the rear wall of the recess 32 with screws 34 and 36. Reference numerals 34a and 36a in FIG. 2 indicate openings through which screws 34 and 36 are inserted, respectively. Further, the reference numeral 12a in FIG. 3 indicates a tile, and the reference numeral 12b indicates a mortar.

The supports 18 and 20 are respectively the side plate parts 1
4 and 16, so that it can assume a roll paper supporting position in which it protrudes (stands up) from the opposing surfaces of the side plate parts 14 and 16, and a retracted position in which it rotates upward. Since the installation structures of the supports 18 and 20 are exactly the same, the installation structure of the supports 18, etc. will be explained next.

As shown in FIG. 3, a retainer mounting opening 40 is provided in the side plate portion 12 so as to be cut from the mounting portion 38 side that constitutes the rear surface portion of the paper holder, and a retainer 42 is inserted into the mounting opening 40. It is inserted in the direction of arrow A in Figure 3. An opening 44 is provided further forward of the paper holder than the mounting opening 40. The support 18 is arranged to protrude from the opening 44, and its lower end side is pivotally supported by a pair of shaft portions 46.

The shaft portion 46 is provided integrally with the support 18. One shaft portion 46 is connected to the side plate portion 12
The other shaft portion 46 is pivotally supported in a shaft support hole 52 provided in the retainer 42 .

The support 18 is biased in the direction of protruding from the opening 44 by an erecting spring 58 made of a compression coil spring. The spring 58 is connected to a guide hole 60 provided in the support 18 and a spool 62.
The spool 62 is inserted into the guide hole 6.
It is slidably inserted into the 0. The spool 6
The tip of the spring 58 is in contact with the plate 42a of the retainer 42, whereby the spring 58 obtains a reaction force that urges the support 18 in the projecting direction.

A pair of arm-shaped stoppers 64 are integrally provided on the support 18, and the stoppers 64 contact the back surface of the side plate portion 14 and the back surface of the retainer 42 to prevent the support 18 from standing up (projecting out). Positioning is in progress.

The support 18 has a lower side surface 18a that slopes upward toward the tip of the support.

In the paper holder 10 configured in this manner, the paper cutting plate 24 always maintains the posture in the extending direction of the support plate 25 (the posture shown in the figure) by the spring 78. Therefore, the outer surface of the paper cutting board 24 always forms a continuous surface with the outer surfaces of the support plate 25 and the side plate parts 14 and 16, giving an excellent sense of unity and good appearance. Furthermore, since there is a gap M between the tip 24S of the paper cutting board 24 and the paper 22, it is easy to insert a finger into this gap M and pull out the tip of the paper 22. Note that when the paper cutting board 24 is pressed down, the paper cutting board 24 rotates around the shaft 70 and its tip 24S comes into contact with the outer peripheral surface of the paper 22, so that the paper can be cut.

In this embodiment, since the paper holder is provided with the installation part 25a of the toilet controller 30, a dedicated mounting member for the controller 30 is not required, and the configuration of the toilet room is simplified. Further, since the paper holder is generally located within easy reach of the toilet user, the controller can be easily operated even by the user who is using the toilet.

In addition, in this embodiment, the roll paper 2
2 is a wall surface 12 as shown by arrow B in FIGS. 1 and 3.
It is inserted between the side plate parts 14 and 16 from the lower front side of the. When the side end surface of the roll paper 22 enters between the side plate parts 14 and 16, the supports 18 and 20
Since the lower surfaces 18a and 20a of the support 18 are inclined, the support 18 is pushed by the roll paper 22 and rotates upward. When the hollow core 22a reaches a position where it engages with the supports 18, 20, the supports 18, 20 are erected by the biasing force of the erecting spring 58 and inserted into the hollow core 22a. As a result, the roll paper 22 is held in the paper holder 10.

The paper holder 10 of this embodiment has a structure in which the latter half thereof is embedded in the wall surface 12,
The length of the protrusion toward the indoor side is small, allowing for a large room space such as a toilet room, and preventing it from hitting toilet users or cleaners.

It should be noted that the above embodiment is an example of the present invention, and the present invention can be applied to various paper holders other than those shown in the drawings.

[Effects] As described above, the paper holder of the present invention can maintain the paper cutting board and the support plate flush with the upper surface of the side plate at all times, so the external shape is constant,
It can enhance the beauty. Furthermore, since there is a gap between the paper and the paper cutting board, it is easy to pull out the end of the paper.
