Toilet seat paper setting method, apparatus therefor and toilet seat paper

Abstract

A toilet seat paper setting method and device for a toilet seat wherein paper sheets can be easily supplied to and removed from the toilet seat. A toilet cover includes a paper cassette with paper sheets, which are placed to cover the seat surface of the toilet seat and stored in the cassette, stacked in many layers, and can be taken out one-by-one. A number of air suction holes in the toilet seat open to the seat surface of the toilet seat. An air suction device draws air through the suction holes. With the toilet cover fitted to the toilet seat, the suction device is actuated to cause a paper sheet in the paper cassette to be sucked onto the toilet seat.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] This invention relates to a method and an apparatus for setting a toilet seat paper on a toilet seat and a toilet seat paper. BACKGROUND ART [0002] Western style toilet apparatus which is rapidly spreading is considered to have a sanitary problem in that the user directly sits on a toilet seat differing from the Japanese style toilet especially in a department stores or hotels in which non-specific users frequently use. [0003] As measures for solving this, various arrangements for replacing a sheet of paper place on the toilet seat are proposed. See Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3013477 (Utility Model Document 1) and Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3072648 (Utility Model Document 2), for example. [0004] However, the former requires to page toilet seat cover sheets or the toilet seat papers by means of toilet seat cover sheet paging machine and a feed operation magnet must be magnetically attached to a magnetized element attached to the toilet...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0029] According to the present invention, the toilet paper sheet is separated from the paper cassette by suction and attached to the toilet seat, so that the structure can be made simpler with lesser breakdown as compared to the conventional design, enabling smother and continuous feeding of the toilet seat papers.

[0030] According to the present invention, the toilet seat paper can be easily fed to the toilet seat without the need of manual operation and easily removed from the toilet seat by the user after the use.

[0031] According to the present invention, the toilet seat is made of a thermally insulating material, so that un

Problems solved by technology

Western style toilet apparatus which is rapidly spreading is considered to have a sanitary problem in that the user directly sits on a toilet seat differing from the Japanese style toilet especially in a department stores or hotels in which non-specific users frequently use.

However, the former requires to page toilet seat cover sheets or the toilet seat papers by means of toilet seat cover sheet paging machine and a feed operation magnet must be magnetically attached to a magnetized element attached to the toilet main body, so that the operation is troublesome and the toilet seat paper may easily broken during the operation.

Also, since the latter has such the arrangement that a number of toilet seat papers are stacked into a lamination, each paper being provided with a separation portion on the use surface and an adhesive portion on the other surface, whereby the toilet seat paper is adhered to the toilet seat, there has been problems that steps of providing the toilet seat papers with the separation portion and the adhesive portion are complicated and increases the cost, and that the paper separation and removal step is burdensome in that the adhered toilet seat paper cannot easily be separated and is often broken.

Further, in either case, the toilet seat paper placed on the toilet seat must be separated after the usage, the conventional toilet seat paper becomes wet with sweat and sticks to the toilet seat or the toilet seat paper is twisted during the usage and becomes difficult to grasp, often providing annoyance to the user.
