Claims
- 1. A method of making of a cushion toilet seat comprising the steps of:
- a. vacuum forming an open annular trough in a first soft plastic film material;
- b. placing a foamable reaction mixture in said trough and allowing said mixture to expand in said trough to form a foam cushion material;
- c. placing a second layer of soft plastic film material over said trough containing said expanding foam cushion material before the foam material has expanded sufficiently to fully fill the trough;
- d. laying a stiff annular member over said second layer of soft plastic film material in a position to register with said annular trough;
- e. covering said stiff annular member with a third layer of soft plastic film material;
- f. heat sealing said first, second and third layers of soft plastic film material together at the inner and outer rims of the annular trough before said expanding foam cushion material has fully filled the trough;
- g. tearing away and removing said first, second and third layers of plastic film material within the center region defined by the inner rim of said annular trough; and
- h. tearing away and removing the excess material of said first, second and third layer of plastic film material outside the outer rim of said annular trough.
- 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said foamable reaction mixture is polyurethane resin.
- 3. The method of claim 1 wherein said vacuum forming step includes the steps of:
- a. laying a layer of first soft plastic film material over a mold having an annular trough therein;
- b. making at least one slit in said plastic film material within the center region defined by the inner rim of said annular trough to facilitate forming of said first plastic film material in the open annular trough of said mold; and
- c. heating said first plastic film material to soften said material to facilitate forming thereof.
- 4. The method of claim 1 wherein said heat sealing step comprises high frequency electronic heat sealing.
