Ado/p/z Morchqna ATTOR NEY Patented Nov. 27, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE HOLDER FOR TOILET TISSUE ROLLS Adolph Marchand, Jackson Heights, N. Y.
Application September 16, 1949, Serial No. 116,065
1 Claim.
The object of the present invention is to provide a holder for toilet tissue rolls which can be set into the wall of a bathroom, which may wholly conceal the roll, provide an exposed, pleasing appearance, and at the same time will automatically project the holder into full exposed position when a releasing device is actuated. In addition to such inherent utility, the device positions the roll mounting means outwardly of the wall and easing so that removal of the hub or post and replacement of rolls is simplified.
The invention wil be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing part of the bathroom wall and the device carried thereby in closed position;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged isometric view showing a roll, in dotted lines, in outwardly projected position;
Fig. 3 is a horizontal section on the line 3-3, Fig. 2;
Fig. 4 is a vertical section taken generally on the line 44, Fig. 3; and
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary vertical section taken on the line 5-5, Fig. 1, and enlarged.
Referring to the drawings it will be seen that the device consists of a casing I, which may be rectangular, which is provided with a front flange 2. In usual practice the casing will be made of metal and the flange may be made of the same material, but can be made of plastic or other suitable material such as molded glass, and the latter can be milk or tinted glass to con-, form with the tiling of the bathroom.
A door 3 is hinged to the front of easing l and it may be carried by a vertical plate 5 carried by the front flange 2, which plate may have two front rolled sections 6, Fig. 4, to receive a pivot pin 1 which passes through apertures in the horizontal flange members 8 of the door. Between the rolled and hinged tubular sections 6 of the formed plate 5 is a coiled spring 9, one end thereof bearing fipon plate 5 and the opposite end upon the door 3 in such manner that tension will be imposed by the spring when the door is closed and the tension will be sufficient to swing the door to the position of Fig. 2 when the door is released. To the inner face of the door is secured a bracket member Ill carrying spaced arms ll of springy material, the outer portions of these arms being apertured to receive the usual roll or post I2 upon which the roll of toilet tissue I3 is exteriorly mounted. The roll or post [2 is formed with reduced ends to enter the apertures in the springy arms ll.
Means are provided for holding the door in closed position. As shown, the bottom horizontal flange 8 of the door is formed with a slot at M and the right hand area of the lower portion of the casing flange 2 is apertured to receive a latch member l5 of springy metal which extends back to the base of the casing l and is secured thereto by the rivets [5, Fig. 5. Latch member I 5 is downwardly bent at its front end and formed at its top with a nose to enter slot M at the door. When the door is moved to closed position, its lower flange will engage the thus cammed latch portion effecting a slight depression thereof until the nose of the latch comes into register with slot [4 and springs into the same to hold the door closed.
The wholly concealed toilet tissue roll is automatically thrown into fully exposed position by a finger depression of the latch member l5. Thus the roll can be brought to a position facin the user, being swung ninety degrees from its concealed position.
By the employment of a box flange for the front of the casing and a cover member which is inwardly flanged, the device may be mounted in three different positions relatively to the tiling of the bathroom wall, or the wall itself. Where the wall is of relatively shallow depth, the back edge of flange 2 may abut the same so that the bracket which holds the toilet roll is projected by two outwardly stepped members, that is to say, the box flange 2 and the flanged cover 3, as indicated in Fig. 1. When, however, the depth of the wall is greater, the casing flange 2 maybe sunk so that its outer surface is flush with the wall or tiling, or less than flush.
It will be understod that various modifications may be made in the form and arrangement of the elements constituting the embodiment illustrated in the drawings without departing from the spirit of the invention.
I claim:
A holder for toilet tissue rolls comprising a rectangular casing adapted to be sunk into the wall of a room to expose a front flange of said casing, a vertical plate carried by said front flange and having two rolled sections adapted to receive a pivot pin extending the length of the front flange, a front cover having top and bottom horizontal flanges having apertures therein for said pivot pin and adapted to swin outwardly, bracket means of unitary construction carried by the inner face of the cover member and having a pair of opposed spring-tensioned arms having an aperture and adapted to hold a roll of tissue I 3 with its supporting post, the casing and front cover being adapted to wholly conceal said roll of tissue and the front cover being moveable to bring the bracket means exteriorly of the casing for substantially complete exposure of a roll of tissue held thereby, in combination with automatic spring means mounted on said pivot pin for projecting the door to open position, said spring means normally acting to hold the door in open positiori and finger-operable latching 10 2,308,340
means for holding the door in closed position.
