  • Patent number: 4850061
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an individually packaged disposable toilet seat cover folded to pocket size dimensions. The cover comprises a main sheet of a lightweight material having two detachable application stubs extending from opposite ends of the main sheet. When the stubs are pulled away from each other in one continuous motion, the cover unfolds from its stowed position into its full-sized deployed position.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, two or more sticking mechanisms are placed radially on the toilet seat cover. Two such mechanisms are associated with the application stubs. The sticking mechanism consists of an adhesive surface and a protective strap covering the adhesive surface. Thus, after placing the cover on the seat, the application stubs are detached from the main sheet, and in the same motion the protective straps are removed and the adhesive surfaces are exposed to enable the cover to adhere to the seat.
