SANITARY SEAT Gov-ER April 21, 1931,
Filed Jan. 11, 1930 HEE/NAZDPFUUL 05 Inventor A tlorney Patented Apr. 21, 1931 iii-airs LSQLGBS REGINALD P. FOULD S, F SPOKANE, WASHINGTON sanrranr sum: covert Application filed January 11, 1930. Serial No. 420,116.
My present invention relates to improve ments in sanitary seat covers of the type for use on toilet seats, especially in public places 7 for protection against the transference of infection or disease, and to provide sanitary conditions. 7 7
By the utilization of the seat covers of my invention, it is possible to provide a pack or pad of covers which may be successively torn oif after use and dropped into the toilet or disposed of in containers provided for that purpose.
Because of the construction of my seat covers, it is possible to furnish them in quantities to hotels, railway stations, public buildings, and the like, at'a low cost, and they may readily be attached to the seat where they will remain so long as the pad has any sheets left.
It is an object of my invention also to provide a universal type which will be adaptable for use in connection with split seatsv toilet with my seat covers in position thereon. V
Figure 2 is across-sectional view through one side of the seat and through the pad of my invention.
Figure 3 is'a perspective view of the complete pad ready for application to a toiletseat.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary View of a rear end of a seat and the rear end of the pad, specifically showing the means of attaching the pad to the seat.
Figure 5 is a perspective view of the protector strip utilized to keep the retaining spring from marring the seat.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the usual.
Figure-6 is a cross-sectional view through the rear of the pad, taken on a line through one ;of the. fastening and anchoring means.
Figure 7 is a fragmentary perspective view of the rear end of the pad showing the perforations forv tearing off the 1 sheets forming the pad.
In order that the general relation of parts maybe understood I have indicated in Figure 1 the ordinary method of adapting sanitary seat covers to the usual toilet. The covers 10 are cut out of-paper,.preferably of a typeimpervious to moisturesuch as waxed or paraifined paper, such as will not allow moisture or perspiration to pass through from one sheet to another, and it is also my intention to medicate the cover sheets. 7 a
The covers are made up in pads of any number of sheets. These pads are mounted on a base of cardboard, .strawboard, or the like, which rests directly. on the seat and both the sheets 10 and the base 11 are treated in the processing to make them substantially conform to the curvature of the seat so that the pad construction will be aided in maintaining its proper position on theseat and will not be displaced therefrom.
As a means of securing the pad to the 'usual seat, I provide a retainingspringlfl which grips the seat on the under sideand' holds the pad tightly in place. This spring is formed with a spring loop 13, and .is formedeof one bent piece with a cross-member 14 and'threaded ends 15. The threaded ends 15 are engaged by a nut 16with a flat head 17, and a kerf 18 for a screw driver or the like to be used in drawing the members, including the pad, tightly together.
To protect the seat from abrasion by the retaining spring, I provide a pad member 19 which may be formed of fiber or other similar suitable material, and out of the fiber I form two straps 20 through which the terminals 15 of the wire may be slipped. The pad 19 is adjusted on the spring close to the end and adjacent to the sanitary pad 10 so that it will rest upon the seat in the position as shown in Figure l.
By forming the pad base 11 to substantially the curvature of the seat, and treating it in such a manner as will stiffen it to that position, I provide a structure which is strong and fairly stiff and which will permit the seat to be moved on its hinges without disoldging the padded sheets or this base.
To insure that the sheets themselves will be substantially held together when the seat is lifted, I provide at intervals a series of kerfs 21, which are formed at the same time that the sheets are cut out, and since the sheets will be cut out in numbers of superimposed layers, the kerfs will cause a distortion of the padded sheets that will permit them to be held to each other in such a manner that the sheets cannot become displaced, but remain in a stack and are held to each other by reason of the distortion or kerfs 21, and yet at all times are available for tearing off along the perforated lines 22 at the back of the pad. v
Through the manner that I have adopted of anchoring each of the sanitary cover sheets 10 to each other, that is by means of the kerfs, I am enabled to build up a solid, substantially rigid structure that will permit of use with facility and at the same time meet the conditions imposed upon it, especially when the seat is maintained in a lifted position.
Since many of the toilet seats now in use are of the split type, that is, where the front portion is open, I provide the pad of sheets and base of my invention with perforations 23 by means of which the portion 24: may be entirely removed in order to adapt the seat covers to such a type.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
The combination with a seat of a base plate having eyes on its upper face, a pad of sanitary leaves and holes in said pad, a top plate for the pad and holes therein,
' bolts in said holes, threaded socket-heads on the bolts for clamping the top plate on the pad, and U-shaped hooks on the bolts having bearings in the eyes and embracing the seat.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature,
REGINALD P. FOULDS.
