  • Patent number: 5435465
    Abstract: An apparatus for wetting toilet paper prior to the use of the toilet paper. The apparatus may be mounted on a wall or set on a flat surface, and includes a reservoir for storing a fluid. A clamp is provided for holding the reservoir by friction. The reservoir has a screw-on lid and a check valve controlling flow of fluid, enabling the reservoir to be removed without allowing a significant quantity of liquid contents to escape. The check valve is opened by a projecting conduit member when the liquid reservoir is secured by the clamp in its operative position. An internal valve arrangement includes a spring biased piston pressurizing the liquid, and resultant pressure operates a valve enabling dispensing of the liquid. An operating lever acting on the piston is urged by the spring into a "ready" position after each stroke. As the liquid is dispensed onto the toilet paper, any excess liquid is caught by a liquid splash pan located under the user's hand and contained within a removable tray.
