- The present application claims priority to, and the benefit of, U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/279,324 which was filed on Nov. 15, 2021 and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- The present invention relates generally to the field of toilet paper. More specifically, the present invention relates to a toilet paper wetting device comprised of a generally square body further comprised of a swinging door, a reservoir, and at least one sponge. The reservoir acts as the top surface of the body, wherein the reservoir can be filled with water and placed inside of the body. The bottom surface of the reservoir is comprised of a nozzle, wherein at least one sponge can be placed into the interior surface of the body below the nozzle. Using a button, a user can distribute water onto the sponge such that is becomes moistened. A user can then place a piece of toilet paper onto the sponge and moisten the toilet paper for use in wiping their genitals and/or buttocks after using the restroom. Accordingly, the present disclosure makes specific reference thereto. Nonetheless, it is to be appreciated that aspects of the present invention are also equally applicable to other like applications, devices and methods of manufacture.
- Many individuals use wet wipes or other moistened towel-like products to clean their genitals and buttocks areas after using the restroom. While these products are often available to a user within his or her own home or in other private settings, they are often unavailable in public restrooms. In public restrooms, users must use dry toilet paper. This is undesirable, as dry toilet paper does not clean the genitals and buttocks of a user as well as a wet wipe or other moistened towel-like product. Further, wet wipes may collect within a plumbing system and cause substantial clogs, which may be extremely costly and involved to fix. As a result, a user may not wish to use wet wipes in their own home, but still desire a moistened alternative to toilet paper for wiping their genitals and buttocks after using the restroom.
- Therefore, there exists a long-felt need in the art for a device that offers the user the functional benefits of both wet wipes and toilet paper. Further, there exists a long-felt need in the art for a toilet paper wetting device that allows a user to wet toilet paper such that the toilet paper performs similarly to a wet wipe. In addition, there exists a long-felt need in the art for a toilet paper wetting device that allows a user to wet toilet paper such that the toilet paper performs similarly to a wet wipe, wherein the toilet paper does not create substantial clogging within a plumbing system like that of wet wipes.
- The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a toilet paper wetting device. The device is comprised of a generally square body further comprised of a swinging door, a reservoir and at least one sponge. The reservoir acts as the top surface of the body, wherein the reservoir can be filled with water and placed inside of the body. The bottom surface of the reservoir is comprised of a nozzle, wherein the sponge can be placed into the interior surface of the body below the nozzle. Using a button, a user can distribute water onto the sponge such that is becomes moistened. A user can then place a piece of toilet paper onto the sponge and moisten the toilet paper for use in wiping their genitals and/or buttocks after using the restroom.
- In this manner, the toilet paper wetting device of the present invention accomplishes all of the forgoing objectives and provides a device that allows a user to moisten toilet paper. In doing so, the toilet paper becomes much more effective in wiping the genitals and buttocks of the user. As a result, the toilet paper provides the moistened benefits of wet wipes without any of the potential clogging hazards.
- The following presents a simplified summary in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed innovation. This summary is not an extensive overview, and it is not intended to identify key/critical elements or to delineate the scope thereof. Its sole purpose is to present some general concepts in a simplified form as a prelude to the more detailed description that is presented later.
- The subject matter disclosed and claimed herein, in one embodiment thereof, comprises a toilet paper wetting device. The device is comprised of a generally square body further comprised of a swinging door, a reservoir, and at least one sponge. In differing embodiments, the body may be manufactured from a rigid plastic material or a durable metal. The body may also be opaque, semi-transparent or transparent, and may have plurality of indicia such as, but not limited to, patterns, logos, emblems, images, symbols, designs, letters, words, characters, animals, advertisements, brands, etc. The body can also be any color known in the art.
- In the preferred embodiment, the body is generally square in shape and is comprised of a front wall and a generally parallel rear wall, a bottom surface, and a pair of generally parallel side walls. The rear wall (and/or side walls) may further be comprised of at least one fastener such as, but not limited to, a magnet, a screw, a bolt, an adhesive, a suction cup, etc., that allows the device to be secured to a wall surface or other surface in a suspended manner. The front wall is further comprised of a swinging door that is suspended from the front wall via at least one hinge. The hinge allows the door to swing freely such that when pushed by a hand of a user, the door swings inward into the interior space of the body and momentarily becomes parallel with the bottom surface. The position of the door on the front surface further creates a lip that prevents any water within the body from spilling out of the body via the door. At least one sponge is further placed within the interior space.
- A removable reservoir functions as the top surface of the body, wherein the reservoir can simply be dropped into the interior space from above the body. The reservoir is generally T-shaped such that a bottom lip is formed on each side of the reservoir which rests upon the top edge of the front wall, rear wall and side walls. The side walls of the reservoir contact the inside surfaces of the front wall, side walls and rear wall when the reservoir has been placed into the body as the reservoir acts as the top surface of the body. The reservoir is hollow such that it can be filled with water or other disinfectant liquid, wherein the top surface of the reservoir is further comprised of a removable cap. The bottom surface of the reservoir has a spout further comprised of a nozzle that extends from the interior of the reservoir outwards from the spout. A button located on a side wall or front wall of the body further allows a user to open flow through the nozzle via pushing the button to allow water or other disinfectant to flow out from the reservoir through the nozzle, and onto the sponge which is positioned below the nozzle within the interior space.
- To use the device, a user ensures the sponge is first moistened by pressing the at least one button. Then, a user can grab a piece of toilet paper and place the toilet paper into the interior space via pushing the hand with the toilet paper through the door. The user can then pat the toilet paper on the moistened sponge such that the toilet paper becomes moistened to the desired level. Once the desired level of moisture has been reached, a user can remove the toilet paper from the device and use the moistened toilet paper to wipe their genitals and/or buttocks after using the restroom.
- Accordingly, the toilet paper wetting device of the present invention is particularly advantageous as it allows a user to utilize toilet paper with the functional benefits of a moistened wet wipe. However, the moistened toilet paper does not present the same clogging hazards as wet wipes, and is therefore more desirable and safer for use. In this manner, the toilet paper wetting device overcomes the limitations of using toilet paper and wet wipes after using the restroom.
