Multiple roll tissue holder

A multiple roll toilet tissue holder that includes: a first mounting arm; a second mounting arm; a first mounting slot extending from the first mounting arm; a second mounting slot extending from the second mounting arm; a first rod extending from the first mounting arm at a 90 degree angle; a second rod extending from the second mounting arm at a 90 degree angle; and a third rod in between the first mounting arm and second mounting arm, where the third rod is parallel and aligned with the first rod and second rod. The multiple roll toilet tissue holder may further include a magnetic portion at the center of the third rod, wherein the magnetic portion enables a division of the third rod and tissue holder into two halves. In one particular embodiment, the first rod and second rod are curved to help secure a toilet tissue roll in place.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of Invention

The present invention is a utensil that is used to hold multiple rolls of toilet tissue.

2. Description of Related Art

Presently a typical toilet tissue dispenser in a residential home provides a single roll of toilet paper for use with a user. This single toilet paper dispenser is usually mounted on a wall near the toilet of the bathroom. Further there are pedestals that are available that hold a single toilet paper roll for use in the toilet. Most bathrooms are equipped with this single toilet tissue roll near the toilet for use. One drawback to the single tissue roll holder is that once the roll is empty a replacement must be nearby to replace the empty toilet tissue roll. Typically additional storage devices are placed near the toilet or stored in the bathroom that store toilet tissue rolls for use. Most times these additional toilet tissue rolls may not be nearby or convenient for the next user of the toilet. As a consequence it would be advantageous to have a toilet roll holder that provided multiple rolls of toilet tissue for use in a residential setting. This multiple toilet tissue roll holder therefore could alleviate the necessity for frequently replacing the toilet roll in certain households or at certain times where there is heavy usage of the toilet.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a multiple roll toilet tissue holder comprising: a first mounting arm; a second mounting arm; a first mounting slot extending from the first mounting arm; a second mounting slot extending from the second mounting arm; a first rod extending from the first mounting arm at a 90 degree angle; a second rod extending from the second mounting arm at a 90 degree angle; and a third rod in between the first mounting arm and second mounting arm, where the third rod is parallel and aligned with the first rod and second rod. The multiple roll toilet tissue holder may further include a magnetic portion at the center of the third rod, wherein the magnetic portion enables a division of the third rod and tissue holder into two halves. In one particular embodiment, the first rod and second rod are curved to help secure a toilet tissue roll in place.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present invention relates to a multiple roll toilet tissue holder. The toilet tissue holder according to the present invention is able to hold multiple rolls of toilet tissue for use. This tissue holder according to the present invention is implemented through attachment to a conventional toilet tissue roll dispenser through the use of mounting slots. The mounting slots are placed in alignment with an existing toilet tissue dispenser. The conventional single toilet tissue holder includes a spool that receives a roll of toilet tissue. The present invention has mounting slots that slide onto the spool of the existing toilet tissue holder. Each mounting slot extends from a mounting arm. Extending at a 90-degree angle from each mounting arm is a tissue rod. Each respective tissue rod is curved to receive and maintain a roll of tissue on each rod. The tissue holder according to the present invention also separates into two pieces along a center rod of the tissue holder. The center rod of the tissue holder includes a magnetic portion that retains the two halves of the tissue holder in a complete position. When in this position the tissue holder is mounted at one end with the mounting slots onto a existing tissue holder and at a opposing end are provided with suction cups that enable the attachment of the tissue holder onto the wall of the bathroom where installed. The center rod, which includes the magnetic portion, is also capable of retaining a single roll of toilet tissue. The present invention therefore provides three additional rolls of tissue that are readily available for use. An alternative embodiment of the tissue holder may include a backplate so that the tissue holder is mounted onto the wall through the use of the backplate.

In reference toFIG. 1, a toilet tissue holder100is depicted inFIG. 1. This tissue holder100includes a first mounting slot35aand a second mounting slot35b. These slots are adjoined onto an existing spool for a toilet roll tissue holder. As is well known toilet tissue comes on a roll with an opening that is inserted into an existing toilet tissue holder that includes a spool to receive the toilet tissue roll. Extending from the mounting slot35a,35bare arms32a,32b. Each arm32a,32bincludes a rod that extends at a 90-degree angle from the mounting arm. The first rod40aextends outwardly from the32a. The second rod40bextends from the32b. Between the32a,32bis a third rod42. This third rod42includes a magnetic portion25. The magnetic portion25allows for the separation of the tissue holder100into two halves. These two matching halves adjoin when fully assembled. At the opposite end of each mounting arm32a,32bis a suction cup20a, and20brespectively. The suction cup20a,20ballow for the mounting of the tissue holder100onto a wall at the opposite end of each respective mounting arm32a,32b.

During use additional toilet tissue rolls may be placed upon the third rod42between the respective mounting arms32a,32b. Additional rolls of toilet paper may be placed on each rod40a,40b. This configuration therefore allows for multiple rolls of toilet tissue to be conveniently placed near an existing toilet paper holder.

FIG. 2depicts an alternative embodiment of the tissue holder100in accordance with the present invention. The tissue holder100is attached to a mounting plate10. The mounting plate10includes a decorative face plate15. This mounting plate10enables the insertion of the mounting arms32a,32bto provide for a more aesthetic mounting configuration of the tissue holder100. Further,FIG. 3provides a complete view of the mounting plate10in accordance with the present invention. As can be seen inFIG. 3, the mounting plate10includes two openings17that allow for the insertion of the mounting arms32a,32bduring use. The face plate15on the mounting plate10may be used for the display of an aesthetic logo or sticker or any other type of decorative features for the toilet tissue holder in accordance with the present invention. The instant invention has been shown and described in what it considers to be the most practical and preferred embodiments. It is recognized, however, that departures may be made there from within the scope of the invention and that obvious modifications will occur to a person skilled in the art.
