Abstract: To allow a tubular film having a large opening diameter to be heat-sealed with a short length heater by a function (film width reduction function) that can reduce a size of an opening portion of the tubular film uniformly with a simple structure even when the width reduction operation is performed repeatedly. There is provided a film sealing mechanism provided with an elongated heater and a heater receiver configured to abut against the heater, the heater and heater receiver being disposed opposite, in a direction perpendicular to a position of the feed means, to a tubular film in which content is accommodated and which is fed downward from a film passage port by a feed means such as a feed roller with its both left and right end portions in a width direction supported, so as to be capable of holding outer surfaces of the film therebetween.

Abstract: A folding film cassette including: a cassette base consisting of a first annular body with a substantially L-shaped cross-section that has a hole corresponding to a hole of a toilet in a center thereof and includes a first annular vertical wall onto which a folding film is to be fitted over the outside thereof and a horizontal wall extending outwards from a bottom end of the first annular vertical wall; and a film guide consisting of a second annular body that is detachably mounted onto a top end of the first annular vertical wall onto which the film has been fitted and includes an outer flange, in which the folding film that is retained in the cassette base is expanded from an outer edge of the outer flange of the film guide and fed into the hole of the cassette base.

Abstract: A toilet apparatus is adapted to put the excrement produced each time by the user of the toilet into a bag to form a package of waste, treating the excrement into a state of combustible substance before putting it into a bag. The toilet apparatus is equipped with a long, flexible and folded continuous cylindrical member set in position below a toilet seat as packaging member that is adapted to receive the excrement produced by the user each time and become sealed and transferred downward in the toilet bowl, a processing material for absorbing liquid and semi-solidifying the excrement being arranged at a side of the toilet apparatus, a quantity of the processing material being fed into the packaging member for receiving the excrement each time of production of excrement so as to absorb liquid from the excrement, the packaging member being subsequently sealed at an opening thereof.

Abstract: A portable toilet apparatus of the type is adapted to pack the excretion produced at a time into a flexible bag-like container and hermetically seal the pack, is not very bulk as a whole and allows aged persons and persons handicapped at lower limbs to sit on the toilet seat thereof with ease, while capable of neatly containing several packs of excretion under the toilet bowl, more specifically about four to six packs. A portable toilet apparatus of a type adapted to pack the excretion produced at a time into a flexible bag-like container to form a pack, hermetically seal the pack, drops the pack into a storage section arranged under the toilet main body includes a pack storage section having a shallow box-shaped profile and located substantially right below the dropping pack and pack moving means for moving the dropped and hermetically sealed pack within the storage section, the pack moving means arranged in the pack storage section.
