DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a long sheet roll which can be used by storing a long sheet such as paper, tin foil, a soft plastic sheet, etc. which is folded or wound into a roll, drawing out the long sheet and cutting it. Storage box and holder.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional toilet paper holders are:
A cutter plate is rotatably mounted on the upper back of the main body, and paper is cut at the front edge. However,
This cutter plate only holds the paper roll by its own weight, requires both hands to pull out and fold or cut the paper, and when cutting the paper, the paper roll rotates slightly reversely due to recoil, The cut edge of the paper enters the inside of the cutter plate, and the next time the paper is pulled out, the cutter plate must be raised to pull out the end of the paper.

[0003] Accordingly, the applicant has filed Japanese Utility Model Application No. 5-43446.
(U.S. Pat. No. 5,059,859) disclosed a holder that solved the above-mentioned disadvantages of the conventional holder. As shown in FIG. 4, this holder fixes both the upper lid 3 and the lower lid 2 to the upper edge of one of the side plates of the box-shaped main body 1 having the upper surface and the front upper part opened. , Or both side plates 6,
6, the lower lid 2 is fixed on the upper edge of one side plate 6 and the upper lid 3 is fixed on the upper edge of the other side plate 6, and a notch 4 is provided concavely in the center of the front edge of the lower lid 2. A blade 5 for cutting paper is provided at the front edge of the upper lid 3. An interval through which paper passes is provided between the rear edge of the lower lid 2 and the inner surface of the back plate 7 of the main body 1, and the paper can pass between the lower lid 2 and the upper lid 3. The body 3 holds the paper on the lower lid 2 by its own weight. Further, a projection 8 for supporting the lower cover 2 is provided on an upper portion of the inner surface of the side plate 6 facing the side plate 6 on which the lower cover 2 is fixed.

[0004]

The above-mentioned holder, when the paper of the roll runs out, when the holder moves,
For example, when used on a car, when the car starts and stops or when the car moves up and down, the roll moves in the box, the cut end of the paper is pulled in, and the end is picked to pull out the paper again. I can't do things. Therefore, instead of the roll paper, a long paper folded in a bellows type is put in a box, and the end of the paper is used between the lower lid 2 and the upper lid 3 as described above. There is no danger that the cut end of the paper will be pulled in even if the box is shaken. However, the paper folded in a bellows type will initially block the top opening of the holder,
There is a problem that the finger cannot be inserted, and it is difficult to pick up the cut end of the paper, and therefore it is difficult to pull out the paper.

An object of the present invention is to further improve the above-mentioned conventional holder to provide a storage box in which paper can be easily pulled out not only in the case of roll paper but also in the case of using bellows-folded paper. And
