This invention relates to a holder for toilet paper and has especial reference to a toilet aper holder for the roll form cf paper which 1s to be found vmost commonly in drug, grodepartment and other stores. Because of the ready availability of this form of toilet pa er there has been relatively little done to a ord this form of toilet paper a more convenient and less conspicuous place in the bath room or toilet, the usual method be- These and other ing to support it rotatably upon a roller which has a (pron or forked journal bracket attache to Vt e wall or other support.
An object of my invention is to produce a holder for roll toilet paper, which will suplport the paper in a rea which will cover the roll completely and which because of its attractive and yet inconspicuous appearance will avoid any offence to $0 t e tastes of fastidious people.
A further object is to produce a holder for roll toilet paper which will be cheap to produce and consequently cheap to sell whereever roll form toilet paper is kept for sale.
objects are attained inthe holder described in the following specification and illustrated in the accompanying `drawing in which:
1 Fig. 1 is a front view of a holder embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the holder shown in Fig. 1, a portion being broken away for convenience of illustration. y x
The construction I have shown as an Vembodiment of myinvention consists of a sheet metal body 3 which has a cover 4 and contains a roller 5. The body 3 is formed of but a single piece of sheet metal blanked out to form the back 6 and two sides 7 and 8 of the holder. The yback may have an upper extension 9 containing a hole 10 for a supporting screw and at the bottom of the back a slot 11 is formed by bending forwardly a lip 12. This slot extends from side to side of the body so that the paper from the roll may pass through it. The lower edge of the lilr12 is preferably serrated as shown at 13 in ig. 4, so that the severing of sections of thfweb may be facilitated. f
In the sides 7 and 8 I have provided enlarged openings 14, see Fig. 2, through'which the roller 5 may be passed in mounting the roll of paper in position. Roller 5 has bearing pins 15 and 16 which, when the roller has been passed through openings 14, occupy journal depressions 17 which are preferably ily accessible form,
flanged. The edges of the sides 7 and 8 are curved forwardly to conform to the curvature of the roll to be supported, to which curvature the cover 4 conforms. This cover is providedwith flanges 18 which permit of its being. hinged at its top to the sides 7 and 8 at lpoints 19 and 20. At the lower ends of each of the sides the flanges are provided .with 'projections 21 and 22.which, forming depressions on theirinner faces, adapt them to be sprung or snapped over corresponding projections 23 Aformed in the sides 7 and 8 as shown in Fig. 1. In this manner it is held closed. The sides are :shaped to curve backwardly toward the back 6, as they approach slot 11 and lip 12 nd the lower portion of the cover 4 curves to conform to the side curvature. Thus, inasmuch as the bottom of the cover approaches the web 24 I have provided an enlarged notch 25 so that the lingers may be placed on the web of paper ap.- pearing therethrough, in order to move it beyond the tearing edge 13 so that it may be grasped and pulled out the required. amount previous to tearing it off.
In the use of myimproved holder, it is p but necessary after it has been fastened to a wall or other convenient location to lift cover 4 and to hold a. roll of paper between the sides 7 and 8 with its core 1n register with the openings 14 of the body. Roller 5 is then placed in the core through openings 14 and the roll allowed to rest thereon with the pins 15 and 16 occupying the depressions 17. In placing the roll in position in this manner web must unwind from the ba'ck thereof inv order to pass downwardly directly to the slot 11 as shown in Fig. 2. After slipping the end of the web through the slot the cover is lowered and the fastenings 21, 22 and 23 are snapped closed. The holder is now read f use and it is used by merely placing the fingers against the paper appearing notch 25 to cause it to be projected below tearing edge 13. The projecting end of the web may then be drawn out as far as desired and then torn oif over edge 13, after which the operation' may be repeated when desired, until the roll has been entirely used.
A feature to which I call attention is the double'function performed by the openings 14. In the rst place they permit the roller 5 to be placed in position and in the second place they permit of inspection to ascertain how much paper is in the holder without having to lift the cover.
the Y through I claim is: l
A holder for roll toilet paper comprising a roll supporting roller having a bearing pin Y `5 in each end, abody having a fiat back for support against a wall surface, a lip at the 'bottom of the back and spaced therefrom to leave a slot for the passage of paper therethrough, said lip having a paper-severing 10 lower edge, sides on theback, each of said sides containing an eccentrically located substantially circular opening to permit the placing of the roll mounting roller therethrough7 with a notch in the botom 'edge of each opening to receive the roller bearing pins, and a notched cover pivotally attached to the sides of the body and closing t-he space between the sides, the notch of the cover being in its lower edge and in front of the slot between the lip and back, whereby access to the paper passing through the slot from the roll may be had for feeding movement by the users fingers.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature.
