[0072] As shown in FIG. 4, in some embodiments, shelf mechanism 2100 can be provided as an optional accessory add-on to a paper holder system 1100, such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0073] In some embodiments, shelf mechanism 2100 can be configured to be used in conjunction with to a paper holder system 1100, such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, the content of which is incorporated herein by reference, to hold a portable media device such as a cell phone (e.g. phone 2200 depicted in FIGS. 40-48 and 50) in a conveniently-usable, stable, and hands-free position placing the device in an optimal position to view the video screen while sitting on the toilet. In some embodiments, shelf mechanism 2100 can be configured for easy attachment to and/or detachment from a distal end of holder system 1100.

[0074] With continuing reference to FIG. 4, backing plate 2105 in conjunction with channel-bend cradle 2110 can form a stable shelf or support that holds a portable media device such as a cell phone (e.g. phone 2200 depicted in FIGS. 40-48 and 50) in an orientation that is desired for viewing the video screen. In some cases, shelf mechanism 2100 can be attached with holder system 1100 via attachment arm 2120 and the attachment hole (e.g. attachment hole 2125 shown in FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2D). The snap rivet 1136 passes through the attachment hole, snaps into arm 1140, and secures shelf mechanism 2100 to third bearing mechanism 1135 of paper holder system 1100. In some cases, a shaft of snap rivet 1136 passes through the attachment hole and snaps into arm 1140, and a wider head of snap rivet 1136 secures shelf mechanism 2100 to third bearing mechanism 1135 of paper holder system 1100 while still allowing shelf mechanism 2100 to independently rotate any desired amount (e.g. 360 degrees) about the vertically oriented third axis 1137.

[0075] Shelf mechanism 2100 can rotate (e.g. 360 degrees) about third axis 1137 and this movement is independent of any movement of any parts of paper holder system 1100 about first axis (e.g. first axis 1117, second axis 1127, or third axis 1137 depicted in FIG. 1). Window cutouts (e.g. cutouts 2130 depicted in FIGS. 2B and 2C) in the backing plate 2105 allow portions of first bearing mechanism 1115, for example upper mounting knuckle 1115A to partially pass through backing plate 2105 while in the process of retracting and stowing paper holder system 1100 against a typical American mounting wall 200 when not in use. The partial passing of first bearing mechanism 1115 through backing plate 2105 allows for the combined unit of shelf mechanism 2100 attached to paper holder system 1100 to fold more tightly and completely against the mounting wall 200.

[0076] The shelf mechanism (e.g. cell phone/media device holder/shelf) 2100 can be made out of any suitable material including metal, plastic, resin, and wood and its individual elements can vary in size depending upon the size of the portable media device that the shelf system 2100 is designed to hold. Style and finish can be made to match existing bath hardware.

[0085] Many people can benefit from having a conveniently located storage shelf and/or drawer to store items within reach while sitting on the toilet. For certain items such as medicines and feminine hygiene products some people desire to store these items in a discrete manner hidden from view. The use of disposable sanitary wipes in conjunction with or as a replacement for toilet paper is growing in popularity. These wipes are commonly dispensed out of a commercially available portable, disposable packet. These disposable wipes packets commonly have a small flip up lid that can be opened when one desires to retrieve a wipe from the packet but can also be flipped down and snapped closed in between uses to maintain moisture in the remaining unused wipes. As disposable sanitary wipes have gained in popularity, many people can benefit from having a convenient place to store and dispense these wipes while sitting on the toilet. A problem often arises when one uses the packet of disposable sanitary wipes, especially as the packet becomes lighter as the wipes are being used up and the packet becomes emptier. At some point the packet of wipes becomes so light that the amount of gravitational force holding it in place becomes less than the frictional force of pulling a wipe out of the packet for use and the packet instead is lifted up with the wipe being pulled. This can be an annoying problem and necessitate additional downward force on the packet such as from a second hand to hold the packet down while a wipes is being withdrawn from the packet. There are many different versions of wall mounted flip lid boxes and drawer boxes that can hold these items and sanitary wipes packets. Many commercially available boxes have wipes packet retention structures to mitigate the wipes packet lifting problem but they require that the wipes packet remain open between uses. This leads to the unused wipes eventually drying out which negates part of their intended purpose. None of the existing embodiments of wall mounted flip lid boxes and drawer boxes are designed specifically to attach to and be used in conjunction with and take advantage of the articulation and versatility of the double swing arm function of toilet paper holder system 1100. And none are designed with disposable sanitary wipes packet retention structures to mitigate the wipes packet lifting problem yet allow continuous one-handed retrieval of wipes from the packet and also allow for easy closing of the lid of the wipes packet to maintain moisture in the remaining unused wipes between uses.

[0086] A storage drawer box with shelf mechanism 4100 can be designed to be used in conjunction with, and attached to, a toilet paper holder system, such as paper holder system 1100 disclosed herein. While in use and attached with paper holder system 1100, a storage drawer box with shelf mechanism 4100 can be configured to function as a storage shelf and storage drawer conveniently located within reach for people while seated on the toilet. Items such as cell phones, keys, decorative items, and deodorizers can be stored on the cabinet box top surface shelf 4110A that can be indented as shown or flat. Items such as medicines and feminine hygiene products can be stored discretely out of site in the drawer unit 4120 closed within the outer drawer cabinet box 4110 and accessed by opening the drawer unit 4120 by pulling on drawer pull 4150 attached to drawer unit 4120 by drawer pull attachment hardware 4160 that includes drawer pull attachment screw 4160A and a drawer pull attachment washer 4160B, through drawer pull attachment hole 4120C. Drawer guide hardware 4140 attaches to drawer unit 4120 and guides the drawer unit's path while being opened by sliding along the drawer guide slots 4110B and limits the extent to which the drawer can be opened thus preventing the drawer unit 4120 from falling out of the drawer cabinet box 4110 while being used. Wipes packet retention structure/slots 4120A can be designed to be used in conjunction with an elastic band loop or rubber band (e.g. loop or band 7180 depicted in FIGS. 40, 41, 44, 45, 49, 50 and 51) and use the clastic forces of the elastic band loop or rubber band to retain a packet of disposable sanitary wipes in the drawer unit 4120 while the sanitary wipes are being used by someone sitting on the toilet thus allowing continuous one-handed retrieval of wipes when necessary and also allowing the lid of the wipes packet to be open and closed easily.

[0087] A storage drawer box with shelf 4100 can be made out of any suitable material including metal, sheet metal, plastic, resin, and wood and its individual elements can vary in size depending upon the size and number of items to be stored on the shelf or in the drawer. Style and finish can be made to match existing bath hardware.

Back-Mount Mounting System

[0088] FIGS. 16 to 23 depict aspects of one or more accessory assemblies or components for paper holder and dispenser systems, according to embodiments of the present invention. Here, aspects of an exemplary back-mount mounting system 5100 are illustrated. The images include exploded, isometric, perspective drawings of a back-mount mounting system 5100, an optional mounting system for use with a toilet paper holder system, such as a paper holder system disclosed in previously incorporated U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, or a paper holder system 1100 as described herein. Shown here is a rear mounting plate 5110A, a front mounting plate 5110B, a shoulder nut or barrel nut 5115A, a shoulder bolt 5115B, a spacer sleeve 5120, mounting hardware 5130 including mounting bolts 5130A and mounting nuts 5130B, double-sided shoulder washers 5140A, and single-sided shoulder washers 5140B. Also shown is a representative section of a support structure 5160 with a front and a back, such as a typical vanity cabinet face rail with the front vertically-oriented lateral face of cabinet face rail 5160F and back vertically-oriented lateral face of cabinet face rail 5160B. Also shown here is an embodiment of a toilet paper holder system 1100. In this embodiment, paper holder system 1100 is not mounted to a typical American wall, but instead can be mounted to the back vertically-oriented lateral face of cabinet face rail 5160B or similar structural element.

[0089] In many situations, the desired place to mount a toilet paper holder/dispenser is not on a wall or floor but on a vanity. Open design vanities are growing in popularity in residential settings but most especially in commercial hospitality settings such as chain hotels. Open design vanities have exterior cabinet boxes but instead of having drawers or cabinet doors they have open-front box cavities or shelves where things like towels, small bath appliances, extra toilet paper rolls and the like can be stored. Certain open design vanities have cabinet face rails. Cabinet face rails are horizontal structural and design elements or boards that are typically shaped like right rectangular prisms and run the full length of the front of the vanity and sit just below the countertop slab. Typically they are made of similar materials to the main cabinet boxes which are commonly made of wood, plywood, melamine, particle board, MDF or plastic. Many of these cabinet face rails are substantial enough to mount toilet paper holders thereto. Sometimes mounting a toilet paper holder on a vanity becomes more desirable if the toilet paper holder has the ability to move and articulate in a manner that allows the toilet paper holder to position the toilet paper roll in a variety of positions relative to the user sitting on the toilet and if the toilet paper holder can be moved and stowed out of the way when not in use.

[0090] According to some embodiments, a back-mount mounting system 5100, which can be provided as an optional mounting system for a toilet paper holder system such as paper holder system 1100 disclosed herein, or as described in previously incorporated U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, can be designed to mount the paper holder system to the back lateral face of a cabinet face rail of an open design vanity or similar structural element. Rear mounting plate 5110A attaches to the back vertically-oriented lateral face of cabinet face rail 5160B and front mounting plate 5110B attaches to the front vertically-oriented lateral face of cabinet face rail 5160F via mounting bolts 5130A which pass through holes in rear mounting plate 5110A, front mounting plate 5110B, and drilled holes in vanity cabinet face rail 5160 and are secured to the cabinet face rail 5160 by mounting nuts 5130B in a vice or clamp like manner. Shoulder nut or barrel nut 5115A and shoulder bolt 5115B screw together and along with spacer sleeve 5120, double-sided shoulder washers 5140A, and single-sided shoulder washers 5140B form bearing mechanism 5115 that secures the paper holder system (e.g. paper holder system 1100) to rear mounting plate 5110A via the proximal first arm knuckle 1123. If the layout of the vanity cabinet allows, bearing mechanism 5115 enables the paper holder system (e.g. paper holder system 1100) to rotate 360 degrees around first axis 1117 while attached to typical vanity cabinet face rail 5160. Such embodiments can also allow for the entire combined unit of back-mount mounting system 5100 and paper holder system (e.g. paper holder system 1100) with the exception of front mounting plate 5110B and front portions of mounting bolts 5130A to be stowed within the interior of the vanity cabinet box when not in use.

[0091] Back-mount mounting system 5100 can be made out of any suitable material including metal, plastic, or resin. Style and finish can be made to match existing bath hardware.

Bottom-Mount Mounting System

[0092] FIGS. 24 to 29 depict aspects of one or more accessory assemblies or components for paper holder and dispenser systems, according to embodiments of the present invention. Here, aspects of an exemplary bottom-mount mounting system 6100 are illustrated. The images include exploded, isometric, perspective drawings of a bottom-mount mounting system 6100, a mounting system for a toilet paper holder system, such as paper holder system 1100 disclosed herein or a paper holder system disclosed in previously incorporated U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568. Shown here is the bottom mounting plate 6110, a shoulder nut or barrel nut 6115A, a shoulder bolt 6115B, mounting screws 6130, a double-sided shoulder washer 6140A, and single-sided shoulder washers 6140B. Also shown is a representative section of a typical vanity cabinet horizontal structural element 6160 with base of vanity cabinet horizontal structural element 6160B. Also shown here is an embodiment of a toilet paper holder system 1100. As shown here, instead of being mounted to a typical American wall, paper holder system 1100 can be mounted with bottom-mount mounting system 6100 to the base of vanity cabinet horizontal structural element 6160B or similar structural element. In some cases, nut 6115A and bolt 6115B in combination can be referred to as a shoulder assembly 6115.

[0093] In many situations, the desired place to mount a toilet paper holder/dispenser is not on a wall or floor but on a vanity. Open design vanities are growing in popularity in residential settings but most especially in commercial hospitality settings such as chain hotels. Open design vanities have exterior cabinet boxes but instead of having drawers or cabinet doors they have open-front box cavities or shelves where things like towels, small bath appliances, extra toilet paper rolls and the like can be stored. Certain open design vanities have horizontal oriented structural elements. Typically they are made of similar materials to the main cabinet boxes which are commonly made of wood, plywood, melamine, particle board, MDF or plastic. Horizontal oriented structural elements are substantial enough to mount toilet paper holders thereto. Sometimes mounting a toilet paper holder on a vanity becomes more desirable if the toilet paper holder has the ability to move and articulate in a manner that allows the toilet paper holder to position the toilet paper roll in a variety of positions relative to the user sitting on the toilet and if the toilet paper holder can be moved and stowed out of the way when not in use.

[0094] Bottom-mount mounting system 6100, which may be used as a mounting system for a toilet paper holder system, such as a paper holder system disclosed in previously incorporated U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, or a paper holder system as disclosed herein, can be configured to mount a paper holder system 1100 to the base of a vanity cabinet horizontal structural element 6160B or similar structural element. Bottom mounting plate 6110 attaches to the base of a vanity cabinet horizontal structural element 6160B via mounting screws 6130. Shoulder nut or barrel nut 6115A and shoulder bolt 6115B screw together and along with double-sided shoulder washer 6140A, and single-sided shoulder washers 6140B form bearing mechanism 6115 that secures paper holder system 1100 to bottom mounting plate 6110A via the proximal first arm knuckle 1123. If the layout of the vanity cabinet allows, bearing mechanism 6115 enables the paper holder system 1100 to rotate 360 degrees around first axis 1117 while attached to typical vanity cabinet horizontal structural element 6160. This embodiment also allows for the entire combined unit of bottom-mount mounting system 6100 and paper holder system 1100 to be stowed within the interior of the vanity cabinet box when not in use.

[0095] Bottom-mount mounting system 6100 can be made out of any suitable material including metal, plastic, or resin. Style and finish can be made to match existing bath hardware.

Superior Disposable Sanitary Wipes Packet Holder Box

[0096] FIGS. 30-35 depict aspects of one or more accessory assemblies or components for paper holder and dispenser systems, according to embodiments of the present invention. Here, aspects of an exemplary superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S are illustrated. The images include exploded, isometric, perspective drawings of superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S, which can be used with a toilet paper holder system, such as a toilet paper holder system disclosed in previously incorporated U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, or a paper holder system as disclosed herein. Shown here, the main box body 7110 includes wipes packet retention structures/slots 7110A and a superior box attachment hole 7110S. Also shown here is a flip down lid 7120, a lid hinge assembly 7130, a lid hinge pivot axis 7137, a magnetic latch assembly 7140, and a lid latch piece 7140B. Also shown is superior cell phone/other portable media device holder/shelf 7160.

[0097] The use of disposable sanitary wipes in conjunction with or as a replacement for toilet paper is growing in popularity. These wipes are commonly dispensed out of a commercially available portable, disposable packet. These disposable wipes packets commonly have a small flip-up lid that can be opened when one desires to retrieve a wipe from the packet but can also be flipped down and snapped closed in between uses to maintain moisture in the remaining unused wipes. As disposable sanitary wipes have gained in popularity, many people desire to have a convenient place to store and dispense these wipes packets while sitting on the toilet. A problem often arises when one uses the packet of disposable sanitary wipes especially as the packet becomes lighter as the wipes are being used up and the packet becomes more empty. At some point the packet of wipes becomes so light that the amount of gravitational force holding the packet in place becomes less than the frictional force of pulling a wipe out of the packet for use and the packet instead is lifted up with the wipe being pulled. This can be an annoying problem and necessitate additional downward force on the packet such as from a second hand to hold the packet down while a wipes is being withdrawn from the packet. There are many different commercially available versions of wall mounted flip lid boxes and drawer boxes that can hold these items and sanitary wipes packets. Many commercially available boxes have wipes packet retention structures to mitigate the wipes packet lifting problem but they require that the wipes packet remain open between uses. This leads to the unused wipes eventually drying out which negates part of their intended purpose. None of the existing embodiments of wall mounted flip lid boxes and drawer boxes are designed specifically to attach to and be used in conjunction with and take advantage of the articulation and versatility of the double swing arm function of a paper holder system disclosed herein, such as toilet paper holder system 1100. And none are designed with a disposable sanitary wipes packet retention structures to mitigate the wipes packet lifting problem yet allow continuous one-handed retrieval of wipes from the packet and also allow for easy closing of the lid of the wipes packet to maintain moisture in the remaining unused wipes between uses. Many people bring their cell phones and other media devices into the bathroom while using the toilet. Cell phones located in pant or skirt pockets have a tendency to fall out either on the floor or potentially in the toilet while garments are being removed for toilet use. Therefore, many people look for a convenient, stable, and safe place to set down their media devices while using the toilet. A certain portion of the population has the desire to view the video screen of their cell phone or other similar portable media device in a hands-free manner while sitting on the toilet.

[0098] According to some embodiments, superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S is designed to be used in conjunction with, and attached to, a toilet paper holder system, such as toilet paper holder system 1100. Superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S can be attached with toilet paper holder system 1100 at the distal end of and superior to second arm 1130 via the superior box attachment hole 7110S. The shaft of snap rivet 1136 passes through the superior box attachment hole 7110S and snaps into arm 1140. The wider head of snap rivet 1136 secures superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S to third bearing mechanism 1135 of paper holder system 1100 while still allowing superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S to independently rotate 360 degrees about the vertically oriented third axis 1137. Superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S can rotate 360 degrees about third axis 1137 and this movement is independent of any movement of any parts of paper holder system 1100 about first axis 1117, second axis 2117, or third axis 1137. While in use and attached to toilet paper holder system 1100, superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S can be designed to act as a storage container for a disposable sanitary wipes packet and take advantage of the maneuverability and versatility of the paper holder system 1100 to position a disposable sanitary wipes packet in a convenient location within reach for people to use while seated on the toilet. The superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S and the disposable sanitary wipes packet can then also be moved and stowed out of the way against the mounting wall when not in use. The flip down lid 7120 can be flipped down by rotating the flip down lid 7120 via lid hinge assembly 7130 about lid hinge pivot axis 7137 when the user requires access to the disposable sanitary wipes packet and then be flipped up and closed to conceal the disposable sanitary wipes packet from view when not in use. The flip down lid 7120 is then held in a closed position with the magnetic latch assembly 7140, and lid latch piece 7140B. The magnetically susceptible lid latch piece 7140B that is attached to the flip down lid 7120 is magnetically attracted to magnetic elements in the magnetic latch assembly 7140 that are attached to the main box body 7110.

[0099] The wipes packet retention structure/slots 7110A are designed to be used in conjunction with an elastic band loop or rubber band (e.g. loop or band 7180 depicted in FIGS. 40, 41, 44, 45, 49, 50 and 51) and use the elastic forces of the elastic band loop or rubber band to retain a packet of disposable sanitary wipes in the main box body 7110 while the sanitary wipes are being used by someone sitting on the toilet thus allowing continuous one-handed retrieval of wipes from the packet and also allowing for easy closing of the lid of the wipes packet to maintain moisture in the remaining unused wipes between uses. Superior cell phone/other portable media device holder/shelf 7160 can be designed to be used in conjunction with a toilet paper holder system, such as a toilet paper system disclosed in previously incorporated U.S. Patent Publication No. 2021/0307568, or a paper holder system as disclosed herein. In some embodiments, shelf 7160 can be part of superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S, to hold a portable media device such as a cell phone (e.g. phone 2200 depicted in FIGS. 40-48 and 50) in a conveniently-usable, stable, and hands-free position placing the device in a desired position to view the video screen while sitting on the toilet.

[0100] Superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S can be made out of any suitable material including metal, sheet metal, plastic, resin, and wood and its individual elements can vary in size depending upon the size of the disposable sanitary wipes packet to be used and stored. Style and finish can be made to match existing bath hardware. Embodiments of the superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S can include those that come with the superior cell phone/other portable media device holder/shelf 7160 like the one shown here or without. For circumstances where the disposable sanitary wipes are meant as a complete substitute for toilet paper, embodiments of superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S can attach to a paper holder system that lacks elements 1140 and 1150, used to accommodate a toilet paper roll 500.

[0101] Although the embodiment of superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S that is shown is designed to store the disposable wipes packet in a vertical position that dispenses out of the front side of the box, other embodiments are contemplated and encompassed herein which are configured to enable the superior disposable sanitary wipes packet holder box 7100S to be rotated 90 degrees from the embodiment shown so that the disposable wipes packet in a horizontal position that dispenses out of the top of the box. A multitude of existing latch and lid systems could be used in place of those shown.
