Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To make it possible to easily pull out the cut end of the toilet paper from the edge of the holder cover. A paper feeding device in which a rectangular opening is provided substantially in the center of a cover (1) and a roller (2) is rotatably and vertically movable in the opening.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a paper feeding device in which a cut end of a roll type toilet paper can be easily pulled out from under a cover.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Traditionally, when using roll-type toilet paper stored in a holder in a toilet, the toilet paper is cut off by the edge of the holder cover.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 If you cut the toilet paper from the front edge of the cover, the cut end of the unused paper in the holder will be hidden under the cover. Therefore, when using it next time, it was troublesome to lift the cover and pull out the cut end, or to rotate the wound paper roll from under the holder. Therefore, as etiquette for the next user, it is recommended to fold the cutting edge in a triangular shape to make it easier to pull out, but it has not yet become a habit.

[0004]

[Means for solving problems]

 In order to solve the above-mentioned problems of the conventional one, in the present invention, a rectangular opening is provided in the center of the cover (1), and the roller (2) is freely rotatable in this opening. And it was attached so that it could move up and down.

[0005]

[Action]

 As shown in FIG. 2, when the roller (2) is rotated with the fingertip in the direction of arrow A, the paper roll (5) rotates in the opposite direction, and the cut end of the toilet paper is cut from below the front edge of the cover (1). (6) hangs down as shown by arrow B. Further, by rotating the roller (2) mounted so as to be vertically movable while pressing it downward, the outer periphery of the roller (2) surely contacts the surface of the wound paper. Therefore, the roller (2) does not idle, and the paper roll (5) can be reliably and smoothly rotated. Moreover, when the rotation is stopped and the finger is released, the roller (2) is lifted and there is no resistance. Therefore, the hanging cut end (6) can be picked and the toilet paper can be pulled out lightly from the holder.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, (1) is the cover of the toilet paper holder. It is a feature of the present invention that a rectangular opening is provided at substantially the center of the cover (1), and the roller (2) is rotatably and vertically movable in the opening. In the illustrated embodiment, the outer circumference of the roller (2) is provided with a "knurl" so that the roller (2) can be easily rotated with a fingertip, and the roller (2) is prevented from slipping on the paper roll (5). I have to. The shape of the knurls is arbitrary, and gears or wart-shaped small protrusions may be provided instead of the knurls, and the idling prevention means is not particularly limited. In order to make the roller (2) move up and down, in the illustrated embodiment, the roller (2) has a tubular shape, and a roller shaft (3) thinner than the inner diameter of the tubular roller is inserted into the roller. I have to. Both ends of the roller shaft (3) are supported by a pair of shaft stoppers (4) and (4) provided on both sides of the opening of the cover (1), but the shaft supporting means is optional. Furthermore, the roller (2) does not necessarily have to be tubular, and both ends of the columnar body may be perforated, and both holes may be sandwiched by protrusions having an appropriate shape.

[Effect of the device]

 The paper feeding device according to the present invention can easily pull out the cut end of the toilet paper hidden under the cover of the holder with one hand. Therefore, unlike the conventional case, it is not necessary to lift the cover each time it is used. Also, since the cutting edge will come out of the cover just by turning the roller a little, it will not bother you to leave the cutting edge and then walk away as a consideration for the next user. Of course, the conventional work of folding the cut end into a triangle can be omitted. Moreover, it is difficult for the conventional holder to rewind, and when the paper was pulled out more than necessary, it was thrown into the water while thinking that it was a waste, but in the paper feeding device of this invention, the roller is rotatable. Therefore, extra paper can be easily rewound into the holder. Therefore, it helps to save paper resources.
