BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention generally relates to paper holding devices, and more particularly to a toilet paper holding attachment system device that simultaneously holds at least two rolls of toilet paper, that can either be in a horizontal or vertical configuration, or for holding large or jumbo size toilet paper rolls that can be used with a pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle in a conventional wall-mounted toilet paper roll spindle bracket.
2. Description of Related Arts
The following related arts have shown different toilet paper roll holders that allow the holding of at least two rolls of toilet paper: U.S. D406,481 teaches a hanger that uses a pair of support arms with hooks at either end for hanging a second toilet paper roll spindle. U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,685,365 and 2,790,608 teach a supporting bracket for mounting a replacement tissue roll onto a pre-existing toilet paper spindle. The supporting bracket includes a pair of support arms that hook over the pre-existing toilet paper spindle. U.S. Pat. No. 3,335,973 teaches a paper dispensing machine that includes a pair of pivot arms to alternately dispense a pair of toilet paper rolls.
Related arts teach various devices for holding a second roll of toilet paper in proximity to a first toilet paper roll; however, the related arts do not teach a paper holding device that easily slides over a pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle used in a conventional wall-mounted toilet paper roll spindle bracket that supports the holding of at least two toilet paper rolls in either horizontal or vertical configurations or that supports the holding of large or jumbo size toilet paper rolls.
A need; therefore, exists for an improved, simple, and, easy to use toilet paper holder device that supports the holding of at least two toilet paper rolls simultaneously or supports the holding of large or jumbo size toilet paper rolls.
The present invention provides an improved, simple, and easy to use device that can hold at least two toilet paper rolls in either horizontal or vertical configurations or that supports large or jumbo size toilet paper rolls using a pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle in its conventional wall-mounted toilet paper roll spindle bracket.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is an improved device for a toilet paper roll holder attachment system that can hold at least two toilet paper rolls simultaneously in either horizontal or vertical configuration or for holding large size or jumbo toilet paper rolls that can be used with the pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle in its conventional wall-mounted toilet paper roll spindle bracket.
It is a principal object of the invention to provide an improved, simple, and, easy to use toilet paper holder attachment system device in a horizontal or vertical configuration that can support the holdings of at least two toilet paper rolls or for holding large size or jumbo toilet paper rolls that can be used with the pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle in a conventional wall-mounted toilet paper roll spindle bracket.
In one embodiment, a horizontal dual toilet paper roll holder attachment system is disclosed, featuring: a) a hollow, cylindrical body for the purpose of inserting a pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle, b) a vertical support arm which has an upper end and a lower end, and c) a horizontal shaft that projects freely outwards at its two ends, and the two free ends are angled upwards for the purpose of preventing the toilet paper rolls from sliding out of the horizontal shaft.
In another embodiment, a vertical dual toilet paper roll holder attachment system is disclosed, featuring: d) a hollow, cylindrical body for the purpose of insertion of a pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle, e) a vertical support arm which has an upper end and a lower end, and f) a horizontal shaft that projects freely outward at its end, and the free end is angled upwards for the purpose of preventing the toilet paper roll from sliding out of the horizontal shaft.
In another embodiment, a large size or jumbo toilet paper roll holder attachment system is disclosed, featuring: g) a hollow, cylindrical body for the purpose of insertion of a pre-existing toilet paper roll spindle, h) an inverted L-shaped bracket having an upper horizontal arm and a lower end, and i) a horizontal shaft that projects freely outward at its end, and the free end is angled upwards for the purpose of preventing the large or jumbo size toilet paper roll from sliding out of the horizontal shaft.
