FIG. 1 shows a sanitary product storage box 10 of the present invention, in which a part of a side wall constituting a box is a movable side wall portion 11,
The movable side walls 11 are provided in a pair, and a shielding member 12 is provided between the movable side walls 11.
Each movable side wall portion 11 is rotatably connected to the fixed side wall portion 13 and can be expanded and contracted as indicated by an arrow A, respectively. The shielding member 12 is for shielding the gap when the movable side wall portion 11 is expanded as shown in FIG. 1A, and is a bent material 14 having flexibility such as a resin plate material. The bent material 14 is urged from the inside of the sanitary ware storage box 10 to be always in close contact with the movable side walls 11. A movable side wall top 15 is provided above each movable side wall 11, and a shielding member top 16 provided above the shielding member 12 is provided with a pair of movable side wall tops 15. It is designed to be stored inside. Although not shown, the lower part and the bottom part of the sanitary goods storage box 10 have substantially the same structure as described above. As shown in FIG. 1B, the locking device 17 is provided on the fixed side wall 13, and the opening and closing of the lid member 19 provided on the top plate 18 provided integrally with the fixed side wall 13 can be restricted. It has become.

With the above-described configuration, the sanitary ware storage box 10 can be configured such that the pair of movable side walls 11 are arbitrarily expanded or contracted to have a substantially triangular or substantially rectangular shape in plan view. Can be used. For this reason,
For example, when it is used at the corner of the floor, it has a substantially triangular shape, or when it is used on a shelf, it has a substantially rectangular shape. It can respond flexibly to conditions.

[0007] If a partition is provided inside the sanitary ware storage box 10 to divide the internal space, both the replacement sanitary ware and the used sanitary ware can be separated and stored in a sanitary manner. It will be more convenient. In the above embodiment, a card-type locking device is used. However, the locking device is not limited to this example, and various types such as a number-type locking device or a key-type locking device may be used. can do.

FIGS. 2, 3, 4 and 5 show another embodiment of the present invention.
0, 30, 40, 50 shielding members 21, 31, 41,
Reference numeral 51 denotes bellows 22, 32, 42, and 52, respectively. The bellows used for the shielding member is a so-called shutter door-shaped one in which a plurality of strip-shaped small pieces as shown in FIGS. A so-called accordion curtain shape formed by regularly bending a sheet-like or plate-like material as shown in FIG.

FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 show another embodiment of the present invention.
Reference numerals 0 and 80 denote a plurality of box elements 61 and 81 and 7 respectively.
1, 72 are rotatably connected. In addition, each box element 61, 81 and 7
The hinges 62 and 73 as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 are used as means for rotatably connecting the first and the second 72, and a connection using a flexible material as shown in FIG. The joint 82 can be used.

FIG. 9 shows still another embodiment of the present invention. A sanitary goods storage box 90 is constituted by box elements 91 and 92 which are rotatably connected to each other by a hinge 93. That is, one of the box elements 91 can be accommodated inside the other box element 92.
