Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The instant invention relates to bathroom related devices and more particularly to devices for dispensing and serial storing of toilet tissue along with other bathroom-related items.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Design Pat. No. D257,082 to Williams shows a storage cabinet—paper toilet roll combination.
- Utility Pat. No. 5,570,938 to Butler discloses a cabinet for storing paper toilet rolls which swings out for hand removal of the rolls.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,235,333 to Boone discloses a bathroom fixture that stores both toilet paper rolls and a box of moistened towellettes.
- With modern packaging of toilet tissue in 12, 24 and even 48-count rolls per economical purchase, extra toilet tissue rolls not being immediately used sometimes find their way to being stored in the garage, in cabinets around the house or even in bathroom cabinets far away from the toilet.
- Add to tissue packaging the plethora of marketed personal products such as shaving supplies, creams, feminine products, facial products, etc. All these items need to be stored between uses. The normal bathroom medicine cabinet, an old design continually carried forward, easily can become filled to overflowing. The prior art simply does not address this modern storage problem although it does touch on the storage of only a few extra rolls of toilet paper.
- Contrarily to the prior art, the instant invention discloses a combination storage cabinet and multiple roll dispenser where the cabinet contains space for a plurality of bathroom-related items beyond merely more rolls of toilet paper.
- FIG. 1 is a front elevation of the instant invention.
- FIG. 2 is a side elevation of the invention of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 is a cutaway drawing the invention of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 4 is a cutaway drawing of the invention of FIG. 2.
- FIG. 5 is a front elevation of a differing embodiment of the instant invention.
- Turning to FIG. 1, we see the instant cabinet50 and its
doors 21 withhandles 41. Thesedoors 21 may be transparent, opaque or made of any suitable material desired by an owner.Doors 21 may also not be present entirely. However, it is preferred thatdoors 21 appear and are used to enclose thestorage spaces 22 for esthetic and cleanliness reasons. - Beneath the
doors 21, for easy and open access, is anopen area 30 into which a plurality oftoilet paper rolls 42 may be placed. More than oneroll 42 is here provided for ease of overall use. Also one roll may then be mounted with the paper unrolling from the top while the other may have the paper unrolling from the bottom; should such a preference arise. - FIG. 2 is the side view of FIG. 1 and shows that from the side,
rolls 42 are preferably not seen. - In FIG. 3, the cabinet50
doors 21 are partially cut away to reveal the many compartments orstorage spaces 22 situated underneath. In FIG. 4,side 51 of cabinet 50 is entirely cut away showingcompartments 22 androll 42 as they are typically placed.Roll 42 is shown placed into open,uncovered space 30. -
End roll stand 23 is permanently fastened to cabinet 50vertical wall 51. It engages with atoilet roll 42 via its half-moon-shaped plug 33. Stand 23 andplug 33 are preferably solidly manufactured, and may be so even to the point of being manufactured in one piece. - Opposing the
solid plug 33, stand 23 ismovable plug 24. Backed byspring 26,movable plug 24 slides withinsleeve 25 which is mounted uponinterior wall 29. Thespace 27 betweeninterior walls 29 allows each of the plurality ofrolls 42 to be properly seated betweenplugs movable plug 24 being slidable intosleeve 25 for easy removal and replacement ofrolls 42 withspring 26re-seating plug 24 for proper seating ofroll 42. - The plurality of
storage spaces 22 are available for storage ofextra rolls 42 and any and all other types of items desired to be stored at immediate hand in a bathroom. - A second preferred embodiment is found in FIG. 5. There, a
vertical storage area 66 is added to the cabinet 50. This may be in addition to the multiplevertical storage areas 22 shown in FIGS. 1-4 or it may take the place of one bank of saidstorage areas 22. - In the embodiment of FIG. 5, a sleeve69 is added
atop storage area 30 for thebathroom tissue rolls 42. Horizontally slidingpanel 60 holds up a plurality ofrolls 42. Handhold orhandle 61 allows a user to manually pullpanel 60 back into sleeve 69. When this is done,tissue rolls 42 are then capable of dropping through gravitational force down intocavity 30. - Here,
end roll stand 23 is not permanently attached to the side of cabinet 50. Here it is swingably attached viapivot 62 allowing it to move upwards to a horizontal position as shown in FIG. 5. - Once stand23 is horizontal, a user would then slide
back panel 60 and allow therolls 42 to drop down upon stand 23's plug 33. When the user allows stand 23 to come back down to vertical, about halfway down [at a somewhat 45 degree angle] thebottommost roll 42 will begin to cease self-supporting therolls 42 on top of it. At that time,panel 60 would be slid back into position under therolls 42 stack. So when stand 23 brought itsroll 42 down away from the stack,panel 60 was holding up the stack. It can then be fully slid closed usinghandle 61. - As
stand 23 swung down onpivot 62 to the horizontal position,plug 24 would then be moved back intosleeve 25 againstmounting wall 29. If for some reason,roll 42 cannot clearplug 24 to easily slide into horizontal place overplug 24,wall 29 can be backed withspring 28.Spring 28 can then allow theentire wall 29 andplug assembly roll 42. It allows this to happen by allowingwall 29 to move backwards into thespace 27 betweenwalls 29. Here, therightmost wall 29 is still solidly fixed and allows a solid mass against whichspring 28 may react. Afterseating roll 42 againstplugs spring 27 returnswall 29 back to its normal place andspring 26 also returnsplug 24 back to its working position. Now thenew toilet roll 42 is in position after having gone through the above “automatic” procedure. - The toilet roll holder to the right operates in the same manner as prior art holders and as described above. Its
wall 29 is entirely fixed. Thus,rightmost wall 29 provides a solid backing forspring 28 and is used to help bringleft wall 29 back into working position oncespring 28 comes back to normal length. - IN OPERATION, cabinet50 would hold a plurality of bathroom related items in
spaces 22, such as extra toilet paper rolls 42, medicines, female absorbents, boxes of moist towelettes for additional personal cleansing beyond mere paper wiping, and the like. Cabinet 50 would preferably be mounted near the bathroom toilet itself so that all the items are readily available as needed and need not be stored elsewhere throughout the house. Thedoors 21 may be transparent or opaque as desired, as may the cabinet 50 itself. Cabinet 50 as a whole may be hung up upon a wall or seated upon a support such as the rear tank covering of the toilet. - Two rolls of
toilet tissue 42 are shown immediately ready for use inspaces 30.Exterior walls 51 of cabinet 50 hold solid plug and stand 33 & 23 while spaced,interior walls 29 support slidable plug 24, which manually slides intosleeves 25 and is pushed back out byspring 26.Space 27 betweenwalls 29 allows for properly placingwalls 29 to assure proper seating ofrolls 42 onplugs respective space 30. - For a semi-“automatic” operation of changing toilet paper rolls42, cabinet 50 may be fitted with a sleeve 69 having a sliding
panel 60 which supports a stack ofrolls 42. Ahandle 61 onpanel 60 allows a user to manually slidepanel 60 back into sleeve 69 while the user swings stand 23 up into position to catch thebottommost roll 42. As the user swings stand 23 and caughtroll 42 back downward, the user simultaneously slidespanel 60 sideways sopanel 60 can support the stack ofrolls 42. As the swingingroll 42 contacts theplug 24, it is pushed back intosleeve 25 to make room for it to complete its swing down. Should there still be not enough room forroll 42 to complete its swing, then theentire mechanism wall 29 can be pushed back onspring 28 intoempty area 27. Once theroll 42 clears, everything is allowed to spring back out so thatroll 42 is properly seated in working position. - It should be understood that the foregoing relates to preferred embodiments of the invention and that modifications may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims.
