Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, accurate targeting of motion sensors in the immediate vicinity of the anal sphincter is also difficult
Because due to the large amount of motion required on the part of the child the motion sensor may slip slightly and thus make the detection of muscle contractions impossible

Embodiment Construction

[0031] exist figure 1 shows a diaper 1 on which a diaper module 2 according to the invention is attached by means of a snap connection not shown here. The diaper module 2 includes an excretion sensor 3 , which is formed in particular by an adhesive, elongated and flat element 9 . In this exemplary embodiment, the flat element 9 extends from the housing 20 of the diaper module 2 beyond the upper edge of the diaper 1 and from there along the inside of the diaper 1 as far as the crotch region 21 of the diaper 1 . To this end, the flat element 9 has on one side a snap element, not shown.

[0032] exist figure 2 The diaper module 2 without the diaper 1 is shown in . The housing 20 has an on / off switch 16 and an interface 12 for operating the diaper module 2 . The planar element 9 has two electrical conductors 14 , 15 , conductor 14 surrounding conductor 15 . In the present exemplary embodiment, the discharge sensor 3 is a moisture sensor which can measure the moisture in the ...

Abstract

Excretion by a diaper wearer in a diaper is predicted by providing in or on the diaper on the wearer an excretion detector capable of detecting excretion by the diaper wearer and a motion sensor capable of detecting movements of the diaper wearer. The sensor continuously detects and at least temporarily records movements of the diaper wearer, and these detected movements are analyzed to determine movement patterns. Then, on detection of excretion by the detector, a movement pattern immediately preceding the detection of excretion is stored or flagged as a critical movement pattern. Thereafter each time movements matching the critical movement pattern are detected, a signal is sent to a user.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for predicting the discharge of a diaper wearer in a diaper by means of a diaper module, wherein the diaper module comprises a discharge sensor, a motion sensor and a computing unit. Furthermore, the invention relates to a diaper module for predicting the excretion of a diaper wearer in a diaper. Background technique [0002] The diaper module itself is already known from document DE 699 30 853 T2. Furthermore, an excretion sensor and a motion sensor are proposed here in order to provide an early warning measurement device. Such predictive and also prospective aforementioned sensors can detect for example posture, pressure, motion, vibration, contraction, voltage, blood supply, humidity, temperature, enzymes, bacteria, pH-value, conductivity, resistance, capacitance, inductance and others chemical, biochemical, biological, mechanical or electrical properties. Ultimately, however, only a motion sensor is recommended,...
