Abstract
For producing a protective layer made of a sheet, a device exhibits an oblong guide element (1) with an upper edge (2), by way of which a sheet (7) can be folded in its longitudinal direction. Clamping elements (15, 16), designed as sliders, are arranged on the side of the guide element (1); and the sheet (7), folded in its longitudinal direction, can be grasped on both sides of the guide element (1) with said clamping elements. To form folds in the sheet (7), the clamping elements (15, 16) can be slid in the longitudinal direction of the guide element (1).
Claims10
A device for forming a folded protective layer for toilet seats, said device comprising:
- a guide element with at least one edge, wherein an oblong sheet which is used to form the protective layer is folded around said at least one edge substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of said oblong sheet and slidably supported on said at least one edge of said guide element;
- and
- clamping elements arranged on sides of said guide element, wherein said clamping elements are movable in a direction substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of said guide element in order to grasp said oblong sheet between respective clamping elements said guide element, and wherein said clamping elements are then further movable in first or second directions parallel to the longitudinal axis of the guide element in order to form folds in the sheet on the sides of the guide element, and wherein
- said guide element has two substantially flat guide surfaces which are opposite each other, said sheet being slid along said flat guide surfaces in a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis of the guide element.
