Abstract
With a device for applying and conveying a hose-shaped protective covering for a toilet seat, the unwinding spool is supported by a switch tube which passes through it and which transmits the movement of a push button, protruding from the housing, to a switch arranged inside the housing. The unwinding spool can rotate loosely on the switch tube and is essentially independent from the switch tube's axial motion.
