Method for manufacturing a sanitary cover for a toilet seat and a sanitary cover manufactured by the method

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a sanitary cover for a toilet seat and a sanitary cover manufactured by the method. More specifically, the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a sanitary cover for a toilet seat and a sanitary cover manufactured by the method, wherein a sanitary cover body is folded in a zigzag type so that a plurality of folded sanitary cover bodies can be easily stacked vertically, and the volume of the stacked sanitary cover body can be minimized, and thus the size of the sanitary cover case in which a plurality of sanitary cover bodies are stacked vertically and stored can be minimized so that the sanitary cover case is easy to carry, and the sanitary cover body can be easily pulled out individually from the sanitary cover case by holding the handle of the sanitary cover body stored inside the sanitary cover case, and the individual sanitary cover body pulled out from the sanitary cover case is folded in a zigzag type so that the user can easily and quickly unfold it by holding the handle of the sanitary cover body without using both hands.

[0002] Generally, Western-style toilets are installed in homes, public restrooms, government offices, and various industrial sites.

[0003] The toilet described above is typically composed of a toilet body, a toilet seat, and a toilet lid, designed so that the user can sit on the toilet seat as if sitting on a chair to relieve themselves.

[0004] However, as mentioned above, when using a toilet, the bare skin of the user's buttocks and thighs inevitably comes into contact with the upper part of the toilet seat. Consequently, when used by a large number of unspecified people, it is difficult to maintain the cleanliness of the toilet, which causes discomfort to the user and, in severe cases, can lead to the user being exposed to and infected with various bacteria.

[0005] Due to these problems, in recent years, disposable sanitary covers made of paper or vinyl with the same shape as the toilet seat have been provided separately, and when using them, one disposable sanitary cover is taken out from the case and placed on the seat to sit on and use; however, there was an uneconomical problem in that multiple covers were taken out at once when using the toilet, and unused sanitary covers were discarded.

[0006] In addition, conventional disposable sanitary covers for toilet seats had the problem that it was very inconvenient to take out individual covers from a case in which multiple sanitary covers were stacked inside, and the case was bulky, making it inconvenient to carry.

[0007] In addition, as described above, there was a problem that it took a long time for the user to unfold the folded sanitary covers one by one with both hands in order to place the individual sanitary covers pulled out of the sanitary cover case onto the toilet seat.

[0008] In addition, conventional sanitary covers were not equipped with a separate handle, so there were inconvenient problems such as the sanitary cover being torn by the user's force when pulling them out individually from the case.

[0009] To solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention aims to provide a method for manufacturing a sanitary cover for a toilet seat and a sanitary cover manufactured by said method, which can improve productivity by easily folding the sanitary cover body in a zigzag type in multiple stages using manual labor or a folding machine.
