In particular, restaurants and restaurants such as bars and snacks have only a Western-style toilet that is used only by entering and exiting from the front, and there are many occasions where the toilet is soiled and it is often necessary to clean it.

  By the way, there have been various proposals for a toilet bowl which has been improved so as to prevent the rim of the toilet bowl from being soiled and improved so that the clothes and the feet touch the dirt on the outer surface of the rim. However, there are few proposals for toilet covers that can be removed to clean toilet bowl dirt.

The toilet body has a simple shape and the drain trap is covered with a cover to improve its appearance, reducing weight and manufacturing costs. Therefore, the cover is configured to cover the entire side surface including the lower surface of the bowl (bowl).
