Description

Toilet seat

The present invention relates to a toilet seat sheet that is used by being mounted on (mounted on) a toilet seat surface of a Western-style toilet bowl, and particularly relates to a toilet seat sheet that is configured to be foldable so as to be portable.

When using a Western-style toilet in a public toilet, it is most required that the toilet seat surface that is directly touched by the user's skin is kept clean and hygienic.

However, Western-style toilets installed in public toilets are very rarely equipped with special measures to keep the toilet seat surface clean and hygienic, and users have their skin on the toilet seat surface. In order to prevent direct contact, it is common to use tissue paper or toilet paper cut to a desired length on the toilet seat surface.

In such a solution, since the size of the toilet paper that has been cut out is not a standard that can accommodate the toilet seat surface, it is difficult to stably place the toilet paper on the toilet seat surface, and the paper moves on the toilet seat when using the toilet. In the case of such usage, in order to eliminate the anxiety that the user's skin touches the toilet seat surface, the paper should be kept longer than necessary. Some problems are pointed out that would be very uneconomical.

In particular, the recent toilet seat is different from the conventional structure in which the entire seat surface is relatively flat, in order to adapt to the user's body shape (particularly the shape of the buttocks when seated) and to improve the seating feeling, Since many have adopted a structure in which the seat surface is gently inclined downward from the outer periphery to the inner periphery (defecation hole side), when tissue paper or toilet paper is set on the seat surface, The set sheet and other papers move along the inclination of the toilet seat surface from the outer peripheral edge toward the inner peripheral edge (defecation hole side) and easily fall down into the defecation hole, maintaining a stable set. I have a problem that I can't.

In order to solve these problems, a rectangular sheet having a size covering the entire toilet seat surface or an elliptical similar sheet having a shape covering the entire toilet seat surface (in a position corresponding to the defecation hole of the toilet seat) There has been proposed a toilet seat sheet in which an elliptical through-hole is formed or a cut-out part (cut-out part) for forming the through-hole is formed (see FIG. 12).

Such a known toilet seat sheet is generally a simple sheet that is simply folded in half in the length direction, and is simply stored in a packaging bag, and is usually provided in the toilet. It was understood that this was a toilet seat sheet intended for use, and the size was too large to be used for carrying.

On the other hand, as a toilet seat sheet that can be carried, there has been proposed a disposable toilet seat sheet configured such that a plurality of sheets obtained by folding a rectangular sheet having the above-described structure into a small size are accommodated in a case. In this case, however, the proposed toilet seat has no special consideration for the folding structure of the seat, particularly the structure for taking out the case and the structure for unfolding the taken-out sheet. It is pointed out that the operation of taking out and unfolding the toilet seat seat accommodated in the case takes time and is inconvenient because it cannot be used quickly.

In addition, when a conventional toilet seat is set on a new toilet seat that is tilted downward from the outer periphery to the inner periphery, the entire seat moves toward the inner periphery along the inclined surface. A force that slides down to the defecation hole part is likely to occur, or because a force that is creased from the outer peripheral edge to the inner peripheral edge acts on the entire toilet seat sheet that is set, many small wrinkles are easily formed on the seat surface, It is also pointed out that the user may feel uncomfortable.

In order to cope with such a problem, the toilet seat sheet should be folded to a size suitable for carrying. In use, the folded toilet seat sheet can be quickly removed from the packaging bag in the same way as tissue paper. The toilet seat sheet taken out should be easy to deploy with one hand. Furthermore, it can be used hygienically and stably on the toilet seat surface. Although development of a toilet seat that satisfies such demands is desired, no such convenient toilet seat has been proposed at present.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 8-7

The problem to be solved by the present invention is that, in a portable toilet seat sheet in which a large number of toilet seat sheets are accommodated in a packaging bag, the toilet seat sheet cannot be easily removed from the carrying case (packaging bag). Another problem is to solve various structural problems, such as the fact that the taken-out toilet seat cannot be quickly deployed, or the means for attaching the toilet seat to the toilet seat surface and incomplete mounting effect.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention of claim 1 is a toilet seat sheet for storing a plurality of sheets in a packaging bag so as to be freely taken out, and is sized so as to cover the toilet seat surface, and has a bowel movement at the center. It consists of a rectangular sheet in which a through hole or a through hole forming part is formed as a hole, and the center line and the left and right edges are approximately two on both sides sandwiching the center line provided in the center part in the width direction of the sheet. A vertical fold line is provided at each equal position, and the vertical fold line portion is folded in half with the two sides facing inward. A rectangle formed by folding the lower half portion defined by the first fold line portion in the lateral direction provided at a position almost equally divided into two into the upper surface of the upper half portion, and then by the two-fold polymerization Bisect The lower half part defined by the second fold line portion in the horizontal direction is folded in two so as to be positioned on the back of the upper half part, and then the upper and lower edges are formed when a vertically long rectangle is formed. In addition, the predetermined length portions of both end portions are folded along a folding line in an oblique direction so that a central portion in the width direction becomes a vertex of a triangle.

Further, the invention of claim 2 is a toilet seat sheet for storing a plurality of sheets in a packaging bag so as to be removable, and is a size that can cover the toilet seat surface, and a through hole or It consists of a rectangular sheet in which a through hole forming part is formed, and is vertically placed at a position that bisects the center line and the left and right edges on both sides of the center line provided in the center part in the width direction of the sheet. Each fold line is provided in a vertical direction, and the vertical fold line portion is folded in half with the two sides facing inward, and then the vertical rectangle is divided into approximately equal halves. A position where the lower half section defined by the first fold line portion in the horizontal direction provided at the position is folded in half on the upper surface of the upper half section, and then the rectangle formed by the folding in half is divided into two equal parts In the horizontal direction After the lower half divided by the fold line part of the upper half is folded in two so as to be located on the back of the upper half, a predetermined length portion of the end that was the lower edge when presenting a vertically long rectangle Is folded along a fold line in an oblique direction so that a central portion in the width direction becomes a vertex of a triangle.

According to the present invention, since the entire rectangular toilet seat sheet is sequentially folded in the width direction and the length direction, it can be configured extremely compactly, and a plurality of toilet seat sheets can be formed as in a pocket tissue. By storing in a packaging bag provided with an opening serving as an outlet on one side, it can be easily stored and carried in a handbag or a pocket of clothes.

In addition, in use, the objective can be achieved by an extremely simple operation of placing the deployed toilet seat on the toilet seat surface, and it is possible to maintain the toilet seat surface accurately and hygienically without requiring special techniques. The effect can be demonstrated.

In particular, the present invention relates to a superficial layer or a superficial layer of a superposed portion folded into four by folding the toilet seat sheet that is finally folded into two different directions along the length direction. Since the picking tab for taking out the triangle is formed on the second layer that overlaps, when taking it out from the packaging bag, just pull it out while picking the picking portion from the packaging bag takeout port. It is possible to take out one by one easily and accurately.

In addition, the toilet seat sheet that is taken out while holding a triangular knob can exhibit an excellent effect that the sheet body can be easily and accurately deployed as a vertically long rectangle simply by shaking it vertically while holding this knob. .

Furthermore, the toilet seat of the present invention is formed so that both outer edges in the width direction of the seat are folded in two so as to face each other at the center line position of the seat, and the whole is formed into a vertically long rectangle. After folding this vertically long rectangular sheet in half at or near the middle part along the length direction, it is folded again at the middle part along the length direction again in the opposite direction to the whole. While folding and polymerizing to form a layer, the layer on the most front side of the folded polymerized sheet and the edge of the next layer in contact with this, or the edge of the layer on the most front side (of the upper and lower ends of the vertically long rectangle) The layer that is the most front side when polymerized) was folded into a triangular shape with the central part of the sheet width after folding as a vertex, so it was unfolded for use Seat sheet, longitudinal fold line portion to form a sheet on vertical rectangle is mountain-folded, the center line portion is set on the toilet seat surface while exhibiting a state of being valley-folded (see FIG. 10).

The toilet seat that has been set on the toilet seat surface and has started to be deployed is a force that pushes it to the left and right against the folding force in the vertical direction at the highest position and the center line of the valley. (A force that pushes both sides of the vertical folding line and the valley folded center line to the left and right), so that the entire sheet is quickly deployed to form a flat seat and abuts against the toilet seat surface. Will be performed smoothly.

In addition, it is possible to accurately make contact with the toilet seat surface without requiring a special technique for developing the seat, and it is possible to exhibit an excellent attachment effect with little deviation.

In particular, even when applied to the toilet seat surface that is gently inclined downward from the outer peripheral edge to the inner peripheral edge (through hole side) as in recent new toilets, it is formed vertically on the toilet seat. Since both outer parts of the two vertical folding lines on the left and right are deployed while exerting a force in the outward direction (upward direction of the inclination) against the downward inclined surface formed on the toilet seat surface, The toilet seat seat set like a product does not move in the direction of the inner peripheral edge (through hole) of the toilet along the downward slope of the toilet seat surface, and it does not slide down into the through hole. Excellent effect that can be set.

Since the toilet seat sheet itself can be manufactured at a very low price, it is highly economical and can be used as an advertising item as well as pocket tissue.

Since a triangle pick is formed at the end of the layer on the front side of the overlapped portion that is folded in four layers by repeating two folds in the length direction, the takeout port of the packaging bag is placed at this position. If it matches, it can be easily taken out by simply pulling out the tab of the sheet.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 to FIG. 10 show a first embodiment of the present invention, and a toilet seat sheet indicated by symbol A is a rectangle made of thin paper having an appropriate strength that can cover the toilet seat surface. In the center portion of the sheet main body 1 formed in this way, a through-hole forming portion 2 serving as a defecation hole is folded in the width direction and the length direction, and a pick 3 for taking out is taken up at the upper end portion folded in the length direction. It is composed.

The position where the through hole forming portion 2 serving as a defecation hole is provided is a position corresponding to the defecation hole of the toilet seat. Specifically, the

folding lines

11 and 11 provided in the longitudinal direction in the seat body 1 and the lateral direction are provided. In addition, it is formed so as to exhibit a circular shape or an oval shape in which a part thereof is not continuous on the inner side surrounded by the second folding lines 12b, 12b. (See FIG. 1).

In the first embodiment, the through hole forming portion 2 exemplifies a structure in which a portion surrounded by the cut tear groove 21 or a cut line (not shown) is cut to form a defecation through hole in use. However, it is not limited to the illustrated structure, and it is also possible to cut out the inner portion surrounded by the cut tearing groove 21 or the cut line (not shown) to form a defecation through-hole in advance.

The

vertical fold lines

11 and 11 are arranged in the middle portion between the center line 12 provided at the center portion in the width direction of the seat body 1 and the left and right outer edges of the center line 12, and the center line and the left and right edges. Are arranged in a vertically long position at positions almost equally divided into two, and the

outer portions

11a, 11a defined by the

vertical folding lines

11, 11 are folded inward with respect to the

folding lines

11, 11. By doing so, both the outer side edge portions of the

outer portions

11a, 11a form a vertically long rectangle that is close to each other at the center line 12 portion of the sheet body 1. (See Figure 2)

13a is configured to fold the sheet body 1 folded into a vertically long rectangle with respect to the

vertical fold lines

11 and 11 in the longitudinal direction, so that the vertically long rectangle is moved up and down near the center along the longitudinal direction. Is a first fold line provided in a horizontal direction at a position almost equally divided into two, and the length on one side of the upper and lower parts partitioned vertically by the first fold line 13a in the horizontal direction is the length on the other side It is provided at a position that is slightly longer than that. (In FIG. 1, the length of the lower half section defined by the first fold line 13a in the horizontal direction is provided at a position slightly longer than the length of the upper half section.)

In the first embodiment, a difference is provided in the lengths of the upper and lower side parts defined by the first fold line 13a in the horizontal direction, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the first fold in the horizontal direction. The lengths of the upper and lower sides defined by the line 13a may be the same length (bisected). However, as in the first embodiment, when providing a difference in length between the upper and lower portions sandwiching the first folding line 13a in the lateral direction, the lower half is slightly longer than the central portion in the length direction, Specifically, it is preferable to form the folded toilet seat sheet long enough to allow the upper end of the toilet seat to be picked with a fingertip. In this case, increasing the length of the layer located on the most front side of the toilet seat sheet folded in four along the length direction is effective for the operation of unfolding the toilet seat sheet. It is not preferable to lengthen the lower layer in contact.

The

second folding lines

13b, 13b in the horizontal direction are the total length of the rectangular sheet body 1 folded in two along the length direction so that the lower half of the first folding line 13a overlaps the upper surface of the upper half. Is a fold line for further dividing the sheet body into two and folding it into two, and serves as a reference line for folding the lower half of the sheet body 1 folded in the state illustrated in FIG. Is. (See Figs. 4 and 5)

Reference numerals

3a, 3a and 3b, 3b denote oblique folding lines for forming a pick 3 for picking out at the end of the folded sheet body 1, and the upper ends of the

vertical folding lines

11, 11. First

oblique fold lines

3a and 3a are formed in the vicinity, and second

oblique fold lines

3b and 3b are formed near the lower ends of the

vertical fold lines

11 and 11, respectively. These

diagonal fold lines

3a, 3a, 3b, 3b are respectively formed diagonally so that a portion adjacent to the second fold line 13b in the horizontal direction is a vertex. (See Figure 1)

The first

diagonal fold lines

3a and 3a and the second

diagonal fold lines

3b and 3b that form the take-out knob 3 are the lengths of the sheet body 1 as illustrated in FIGS. The overlapping position is selected at the same position when folded in two at the first fold line 13a in the lateral direction provided at the center along the vertical direction.

Furthermore, the take-out

knobs

3 and 3 folded in a triangle along the first

oblique folding lines

3 a and 3 a and the second

oblique folding lines

3 b and 3 b are arranged in the width direction of the sheet body 1. Are folded so that the upper and lower ends of the center line 12 portion at the center of the triangle are the vertices of the triangle. (See Figs. 6 and 7)

In the first embodiment, the first

oblique folding lines

3a and 3a formed at the upper end of the sheet body 1 and the second

oblique folding lines

3b and 3b formed at the lower end. Although the position that serves as the folding reference is slightly shifted from the formed position (the upper end portions of the first

oblique folding lines

3a and 3a formed at the upper end portion in FIGS. This is because the position of the first fold line 13a in the horizontal direction is positioned above the center in the longitudinal direction of the vertically long sheet. In the case where the

knobs

3 and 3 for taking out are formed after folding the whole into four, the second

diagonal folding lines

3b and 3b formed in the layer located on the most front side and the layer located on the lower side thereof Formed first diagonal fold Line 3a, the results of consideration to the 3a is folded polymerized in the same position to form a knob 3 for taken out.

In FIG. 10, arrows C ··· C indicate the direction of the force acting when the seat body 1 folded for use is unfolded.

The packaging bag B is formed using a synthetic resin film or the like, and is formed as a bag of a size that can be stored by stacking an appropriate number of folded toilet seat sheets A ·· A. An opening line for forming the outlet 4 for the toilet seat A is provided. The position where the take-out port 4 is formed is not particularly limited, but if it is formed on the upper surface of the portion where the take-out knob 3 folded in a triangular shape is located, the take-out handle 3 can be easily taken out when the toilet seat is taken out. Is the most effective.

FIG. 11 shows a second embodiment. In the first embodiment, a first diagonal fold line 3a formed at each of the upper and lower ends of the vertically

long fold lines

11, 11, and a second diagonal Of the fold lines 3b in the direction, the formation of one of the first fold lines 3a is omitted, and the second fold line 3b is formed only in the lower direction. This is exactly the same as in the first embodiment.

A method for folding and forming the toilet seat sheet A of the first embodiment configured as described above will be described below.

In order to fold and form the portable toilet seat A, two vertically formed center portions (positions in which the width direction of the seat body A is substantially divided into four) sandwiching the center line 12 of the rectangular seat body 1 are formed. The folding lines 11 and 11 of the book are used as folding reference lines, and the left and right outer edge portions are folded inward so that they approach the center line 12 to form a vertically long rectangle. (See FIGS. 1 and 2).

Next, the first fold line 13a provided in the horizontal direction is folded in half, and the lower half portion sandwiching the first fold line 13a is overlaid on the upper surface of the upper half portion (see FIG. 3). Next, the sheet body 1 folded in two in the state illustrated in FIG. 3 is folded once again so that the lower half of the second folding line 13b in the horizontal direction overlaps the back of the upper half (see FIG. 3). 4, and FIG. 5), and is formed by folding the

folding lines

3 a, 3 a, 3 b, 3 b to form a triangular pick 3. (See Figs. 6 and 7)

Further, in order to form the toilet seat sheet A in the second embodiment, among the fold formations in the first embodiment, a triangular shape using the first

diagonal fold lines

3a and 3a of the lower layer in contact with the outermost layer. Only the formation of the pick for extracting the shape is omitted, and the other structure is the same as that of the first embodiment (see FIG. 6).
