However, when manufacturing a water-disintegrating disposable wiping implement, it is necessary to consider the type and amount of the impregnating agent so that the properties of the water-decomposable base material are not impaired.

The disposable wiping device of the present invention may be used as it is in a three-dimensional structure. However, the front and back sheets of the laminate may be provided with a knob or a handle or a handle for connection with a handle or handle. It is easy and convenient to provide a portion and to join this portion after expanding the laminate to use it for the purpose. The shape and size of the knob portion, the shape and locking method of the locking portion for connection with the handle or handle are not limited at all, for example, after inserting the protruding portion of the front and back sheet into the handle or handle receiving portion, If the clip is used, it is simple and easy to attach and detach.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the disposable wiping device according to the first aspect, wherein a plurality of paper, nonwoven fabric or plastic resin sheets are laminated while providing a band-shaped adhesive portion at an appropriate interval and sequentially adhering. After bonding the edges on the central axis side of the obtained laminated body, the laminated body is expanded 360 degrees and the front and back sheets of the laminated body are joined to form a three-dimensional structure.

A third aspect of the present invention is the disposable wiping device according to the first or second aspect, wherein a paper, nonwoven fabric or plastic resin of a water-disintegrable material is used.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided the disposable wiping device according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the three-dimensional structure has a substantially dome shape.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, there is provided the disposable wiping tool according to any one of the second to fourth aspects, wherein the front and back sheets of the laminated body are provided with a knob or a locking portion for connection with a handle or a handle.
