Description

Detailed Description of the Invention 3. Detailed Description of the Invention [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention provides a paper roll for use by unwinding paper wound into a roll, and a spare paper roll. This invention relates to a toilet paper roll holder that is arranged and held vertically.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, a paper roll holder that holds a feed-out paper roll for use by rewinding paper and an unused spare paper roll arranged vertically has been designed to hold the core of the feed-out paper roll after use. Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-4129 discloses a device that loads a paper roll by pulling it out and automatically lowering a spare paper roll to a set position of a feeding paper roll.

When loading the paper roll, in the conventional holder, the core was directly inserted into the holder and the remaining core was pulled out.

[Problems to be solved] In the above conventional toilet paper roll holder,
As mentioned above, when loading a paper roll, the core remaining in the holder is manually pulled out, but since the spacing between the spindles held at both ends of the core is fixed, it takes some time to pull out the core. This requires a strong force, which has the drawback that the work of pulling out the winding core is troublesome and loading the paper roll cannot be done easily.

[Means for Solving Problems] The present invention, which solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, is a toilet paper roll holder that holds a dispensing paper roll for use and a spare paper roll arranged above and below, in which the above-mentioned spare paper roll is stored. a holder body having an upper storage part for storing the paper roll and a lower storage part for storing the paper roll so that the paper roll can be taken out; a pair of movable supports that are movably supported by the movable supports; a holding piece that protrudes inward from the movable supports and holds the spare paper roll in the upper housing; and a holding piece that extends from the movable supports to the holder body. and a support shaft that protrudes inward and fits on both ends of the winding core of the feeding paper roll in the lower storage part, and as the winding core is pulled out, the movable support moves outward and the above-mentioned The spacing between the holding pieces and the spacing between the support shafts are widened.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings showing a preferred example.

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a toilet paper roll holder according to an embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 2 is a side sectional view thereof, and Fig. 3 is a front sectional view thereof. 1, and a movable support body 10 having a holding piece 12 and a support shaft 14 which are movably provided within the holder body 1.

The holder main body l has an upper storage part 2 for storing a spare paper roll B in the upper part and a lower storage part 3 for storing the delivered paper roll A in the lower part in a continuous manner vertically, and has side plates 1a, la,
The front plate 1b and the back plate IC are formed into a cylindrical shape with a cross section substantially in the shape of an opening.

At the lower front of the lower storage section 3, there is a paper roll A to be fed out.
A take-out port 5 is formed for unwinding the paper and taking out the paper. Further, the lower edge of the front plate 1b located above the outlet 5 is adapted to cut the foamed paper.

On the upper surface of the upper storage part 2 of the holder main body 1, a first opening/closing lid 6 is provided.
As shown in the figure, it is provided so as to be openable and closable, and by opening the opening/closing lid 6, the upper storage section 2 can be replenished with spare paper rolls B.

Moreover, one side plate 1a is provided below the lower storage part 3.

Projecting pieces 8, 8 of a predetermined width are formed to project inward from the lower end of the rain cover 1a. The distance between the projecting pieces 8.8 is set to be smaller than the width of the paper roll. As will be described later, the spare paper roll B falling from the upper storage section 2 to the lower storage section 3 is held in the lower storage section 3 by being received by the protruding pieces 8, 8. There is.

A pair of movable supports 10.10 are provided inside the side plates 1a, la of the holder main body 1, which are located opposite to each other. The movable support 10.10 is made of a flexible plate-like member extending from the upper end of the upper storage section 2 to the lower storage section 3 as shown. Movable support 10.10
is located at a predetermined distance from the inner side of both side plates 1a, la by attaching its upper end 10a with spacer 1.
It is supported and fixed to the upper part of both side plates 1a and 1a via 1. Furthermore, the distance between the movable supports 10, 10 is approximately equal to the width of the preliminary paper roll B. With the above structure, the movable support 10.10 has its upper end 10a
It is movable in the width direction with a constant force using the fulcrum as the fulcrum.

Holding pieces 12.12 which face each other and protrude inward are provided at substantially intermediate positions between the upper storage part 2 and the lower storage part 3 of the movable support 10.10. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1, holding grooves 12a, 12a are formed in the holding pieces 12.12, respectively, into which the outer peripheral edge of the preliminary paper roll B is fitted. The spare paper roll B stored laterally in the upper storage part z is held at its inner and outer peripheral edges by the holding grooves 12a and 1.2a of the holding piece 12.12, as shown in FIG. It is held in the upper storage part 2 as shown. Also, when the movable support 10.10 moves outward and the distance between them increases, the preliminary paper roll B is moved away from the holding piece 12.
．． 12 and fall downward to the lower storage section 3 side.

Next, in the lower part of the movable support body 10.10 located in the lower storage part 3, there is a support shaft that protrudes inwardly facing each other and rotatably holds both ends of the winding core C of the feeding paper roll A. 14.14 is provided. This support shaft 14.14 is formed in a size that allows the hole of the winding core C to fit smoothly therein. Further, the outer peripheral edge of the tip 14a of the support shaft 14.14 is largely chamfered as shown in the figure, so that the remaining winding core C can be easily pulled out and dropped into the lower storage section 3 as described later. The holes in the winding core C of the preliminary paper roll B can be fitted securely. This support shaft 14.
14 is fitted to both ends of the winding core C as shown in FIG. 3 when the movable support 10.degree. Then, in this state, the paper roll A is rewound, and the paper is pulled out from the outlet 5 for use. It goes without saying that the support shafts 14.14 are movable in the width direction due to the elasticity of the movable supports 10.10.

In the above embodiment, the movable support 10.10 is shaped like a plate and one end is fixed so that it can move elastically in the width direction. For example, it may be a rod-shaped member, and it is not limited to the case where one end is fixed via the spacer 11 as in the embodiment, but it is also possible to make it movable with elasticity, for example, by using the side plates 1a and 1a. It is also possible to support it from the side with a spring or the like.

Next, the loading operation of the spare paper roll B in the toilet paper roll holder of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained with reference to FIGS. 4(A) to 4(D).

When the use of the feeding paper roll A in the lower storage section 3 is completed,
When only the winding core C remains as shown in FIG. 5(A), insert your hand into the lower storage part 3 and insert the winding core C.
and pull it in the direction of the arrow.

When the winding core C is pulled, the winding core C is slightly deformed and its both ends ride on the slope of the chamfered tip 14a of the support shaft 14.14. As the end of the winding core Cr rides on the support shaft 14.14, the movable support 10.10 is pushed outward and moves outward using the upper ends 10a, 10a as fulcrums, as shown in FIG. 4(B). . And this movable support 10
．． Since the distance between the spindles 14.14 increases as the spindle 10 moves, the one-turn core C can be removed from the spindle 14.14 relatively easily.

At this time, when the distance between the holding pieces 12.12 widens due to the outward movement of the movable support 10.10, the lock is released and the spare paper roll B is stored in the upper part as shown in FIG. 4(B). The spare paper roll B automatically falls from the section 2 to the lower storage section 3 as shown in FIG. 4(G).
It is received and stopped by the protruding pieces 8, 8 below the lower storage part 3,
It is held in the lower storage part 3. At the same time, the movable support 10.10 returns to its original position due to its elasticity, so that the support shafts 14.14 fit onto both ends of the winding core C of the fallen preliminary paper roll B. As a result, the spare paper roll B has a support shaft 14 similar to the above-mentioned feed-out paper roll A.
．． 14 so as to be rotatably held, and the feeding paper roll A
Loading of the spare paper roll B is completed by 0 or more being used as the paper roll B. After loading, the opening/closing lid 6 is opened and a new spare paper roll is stored in the upper storage section 2.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, a movable support that can elastically rotate in one width direction is provided with a holding piece for holding a preliminary paper roll and a winding core of a feeding paper roll. By providing a support shaft that fits into the paper roll, the distance between the support shafts increases as the core is pulled out after use, making it possible to pull out one roll of core with extremely light force, making it easier to load the paper roll. Effects can be obtained.
