AI Technical Summary
Existing add-on products for preventing urine leakage from toilet seats require complex installation and pose hygiene concerns, necessitating a more integrated and hygienic solution.
The shielding part that seals the gap between the toilet bowl and seat is molded integrally with the seat using the same material, ensuring durability, aesthetics, and hygiene without the need for separate attachment.
Prevents urine leakage effectively, maintaining hygiene and allowing safe urination without staining, potentially increasing sitting urination over standing urination in both private and public settings.

Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to an improved toilet seat that prevents urine leakage. [Background technology]
[0002] A so-called Western-style toilet (hereafter referred to as a toilet bowl) consists of a toilet seat that can be raised and lowered, and a lid that covers the seat. Generally, the underside of the toilet seat has multiple cushions, so when the seat is lowered for use, a gap is formed between the top surface of the toilet bowl and the underside of the seat.
[0003] When urinating while sitting on the toilet, there was a concern that urine would leak from the gap between the toilet bowl and the seat. There have been many cases where children and elderly people have leaked urine from the gap, staining the area around the toilet bowl and the user's clothes.
[0004] To solve this problem, for example, Patent Document 1 shows a strip-shaped shielding prevention device that is attached with adhesive to the front end of the back of the toilet seat along the curved edge of the toilet seat body to prevent a gap between the toilet bowl body and the toilet seat. However, it requires some skill when attaching or replacing it, and care must be taken when cleaning to maintain hygiene. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2020-188900 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0006] There are known add-on products that are attached to the underside of toilet seats to prevent urine from leaking through the gap between the toilet bowl and the seat when urinating while sitting, but these are somewhat unrealistic when considering the installation method and hygiene.The purpose of this invention is to provide an improved toilet seat that prevents urine leakage (hereinafter referred to as "improved toilet seat"), in which the shielding part that seals the gap between the toilet bowl and the seat is molded integrally with the seat using the same material as the seat. [Means for solving the problem]
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention has molded the shielding part that seals the gap between the toilet bowl body and the toilet seat integrally with the seat using the same material, making it durable, aesthetically pleasing, and hygienic. There is no need to change to a new toilet, and replacing only the improved toilet seat is inexpensive. For manufacturers, this allows them to differentiate their products from those of other companies, leading to new industries. The toilet bowl body and seat can be cleaned in the same way as normal. An improved toilet seat has been developed that is safe and secure from a hygienic standpoint. [Effects of the Invention]
[0008] With the improved toilet seat of this invention, users can urinate while sitting without worrying about soiling the area around the toilet or their clothes. Considering the hygiene issues caused by urine droplets and splashes during urination, it is expected that standing urination will decrease and sitting urination will increase, not only at home but also in public places. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0009] [Figure 1] 1 is a perspective view showing an improved toilet seat of the present invention; [Figure 2] This is a diagram of how Figure 1 is used. [Figure 3] This diagram shows the shape and form of the shielding part that shields the gap. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0010] As shown in Figure 1, the present invention presents the shape and form of a shielding part that is molded integrally with the toilet seat from the same material as the toilet seat, and that fits along the inner curved edge of the toilet seat at the front end of the back surface of the toilet seat to shield the gap between the toilet bowl and the toilet seat. [Example]
[0011] As shown in Figure 2, a shielding section is provided at the front end of the back of the toilet seat along the inner curved edge of the seat to shield the gap between the top surface of the toilet bowl and the back of the seat. This allows the user to urinate while sitting without worrying about leaking urine, and also prevents stains on the area around the toilet bowl and on clothing. [Explanation of symbols]
