Automatic paper dispenser for toilet bowl

Toilets with closed bowls often need to be cleaned after use. This unpleasant task has to be carried out by carers or relatives in elderly care, which is ultimately an imposition. The paper dispenser on the edge of the toilet bowl automatically ejects a sheet of paper when you sit on the toilet seat, which sinks to the bottom of the bowl. This means that no faeces sticks to the bottom of the bowl when you flush. This means that in most cases there is no need for cleaning afterwards.

The invention specified in claim 1 is based on the problem that the paper dispenser

- every time you sit down on the toilet seat, a sheet of paper of about DIN A5 size is automatically ejected, which covers most of the pelvic floor,

- in the housing area of the paper ejection, a normal switch cannot be accommodated for hygiene reasons

- is hung on the side of the toilet bowl and the paper outlet must be between the bowl edge and the seat

- has a variable suspension to adapt to the shape of the basin

- is easily removable as a whole

- its opening is not in the area where the rinsing water splashes or when cleaning the edge of the basin the paper does not get wet

- does not affect the seating comfort for the user

- it allows the time period for the motor to eject a sheet to be adjusted at any time and

- the leaf ejection can be switched off from the outside if desired;

- makes it easy to refill the paper

- also works independently of a power socket

- has an easily accessible, waterproof battery compartment for changing the batteries

This problem is solved by the features of the automatic paper dispenser listed in claim 1.

Advantage: The invention achieves that

- when a disabled person sits on the toilet seat, a piece of paper automatically falls into the toilet bowl

- Nursing and cleaning staff are spared the unpleasant work of cleaning the toilet afterwards.

Figure 1 shows an embodiment

First, the element II is hung on the edge of the toilet bowl using the suspension (3) with the toilet seat folded up. The element I is inserted into the bracket (10) of element II and the toilet seat folded down. If pressure is now exerted on the housing (2) via the seat, the housing is pushed against
the spring resistance (9) is pressed downwards, whereby the contact lever (16) activates the switch of the timer (D). This briefly starts the motor (B), which causes a roller (4) with a bearing to rotate via a gear (A) and a transmission belt (11), so that a sheet of paper (1) is ejected. The timer is finely adjusted using the rotary pin (14).

After the housing (2) is relieved of pressure, the spring (9) presses against the base (8) of element I and returns it to its original position. Parts A - E are mounted on the carrier plate (12) which is in front of the paper stack (5). Paper can be easily refilled by opening the lockable folding wall (2a) with hinge (2b). A pressure plate (6) ensures the necessary pressure of the paper against the roller (4). A flap (7) enables the batteries C and E to be replaced from the battery compartment (7b). In the event of irregularities during operation, the paper dispenser can be switched off using the emergency switch (13).
