A toilet seat cover, comprising a surface element comprising an annulus and adapted to fully cover a toilet seat, and with at least an upper surface suitable for comfortable contact with a human posterior, a plurality of flaps, integral to the surface element and arranged in pairs, each pair of flaps positioned axially one from the other with one flap extending outwardly from an outer circumference of the surface element and one flap extending inwardly from an inner circumference of the surface element, and a plurality of fastening means on or attached to the distal ends of each flap, wherein each pair of flaps is adapted so that each pair of flaps may be fastened together using the fastening means on or attached to the distal ends of each flap in order to firmly attach the surface element to an upper surface of a toilet seat.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A toilet seat cover, comprising:
a surface element comprising an annulus and adapted to fully cover a toilet seat, and with at least an upper surface suitable for comfortable contact with a human posterior; a plurality of flaps, integral to the surface element and arranged in pairs, each pair of flaps positioned axially one from the other with one flap extending outwardly from an outer circumference of the surface element and one flap extending inwardly from an inner circumference of the surface element; and a plurality of fastening means on or attached to the distal ends of each flap; wherein each pair of flaps is adapted so that each pair of flaps may be fastened together using the fastening means on or attached to the distal ends of each flap in order to firmly attach the surface element to an upper surface of a toilet seat.
2 . The toilet seat cover of claim 1 , wherein at least the flaps extending inwardly from an inner circumference of the surface element are connected to one another with perforated incisions adapted to allow easy separation of adjacent flaps.
3 . The toilet seat cover of claim 1 , having 4 pairs of flaps positioned around the surface element.
4 . The toilet seat cover of claim 1 , wherein the fastening means comprise hook-and-loop closures.
5 . A toilet seat cover, comprising:
a surface element comprising an annulus and adapted to fully cover a toilet seat, and with at least an upper surface suitable for comfortable contact with a human posterior; a plurality of flaps, formed integrally with the surface element and extending inward from the inner circumference of the surface element and separated by perforations; a plurality of fastening means on the distal ends of the plurality of flaps; and a plurality of fastening means on the outer circumference of the surface element and arranged with each fastening means in a position located axially from one of the fastening means on the distal end of a flap, wherein when a flap is folded downward and around a lower surface of the toilet seat the fastening means on that flap is adapted to fasten to the corresponding fastening means on the outer circumference of the surface element thereby firmly attaching the surface element to an upper surface of the toilet seat.
