Disposable cleaning auxiliary tool

Abstract

In order to achieve a low cost disposable cleaning auxiliary tool with which a cleaning effect in a recumbent state is maintained, and which achieves a significant reduction in hot water usage, prevents water leakage, and reuses waste water, this disposable cleaning auxiliary tool, of which both surfaces can be used, comprises a flexible, non liquid permeable sheet-like material of which both surfaces can be used, and which includes a bottom surface portion, a water guiding portion disposed in such a way as to extend further out from a position serving as a drain port provided at the outer periphery of the bottom surface portion, a bag-like water accepting portion disposed on one surface or both surfaces of an extended end of the water guiding portion, a tubular gas filled portion disposedin an outer peripheral portion of the bottom surface portion excluding the part serving as the drain port, and a gas filling port leading to the tubular gas filled portion, wherein the disposable cleaning auxiliary tool can be folded and stored when the tubular gas filled portion is not filled with gas, the bottom surface portion when supported by the expanded tubular gas filled portion is substantially flat, a recess formed by being depressed by the body of a recumbent person serves as a water reservoir, and a recess formed each time another bottom surface portion is depressed serves as a drainage channel from the water reservoir to the water guiding portion and the bag-like water accepting portion, and the bag-like water accepting portion can be made self-supporting after gas filling.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a disposable washing aid, which does not need to be spent on preparation / subsequent cleaning when caregivers perform shampooing of bedridden persons or wash parts of bedridden persons’ waists and buttocks that are difficult to maintain bedridden state for washing. The hot water can be controlled in time. Background technique [0002] In hospitals, nursing facilities, etc., patients who cannot arbitrarily move their bodies in a bed or a quilt, or those who need care, are regularly shampooed. This is because the shampoo of the bedridden not only keeps the hair clean and hygienic, but also can be expected to relax the mind and body of the bedridden, and is regarded as one of the important patient care. [0003] Therefore, in order to meet the above requirements, as far as bed-ridden shampoos are concerned, a kind of rubber shampoo aid called Kelly Pad, or a self-made shampoo with the same structure, has been frequently used in t...

Problems solved by technology

[0012] However, the waist or buttocks of bedridden people are difficult to maintain in bed for washing

Especially when the bedridden person is an adult, because of his heavy weight, even if the performer who takes care of the bedridden person pulls up the bedridden person and wants to wash the waist or buttocks of the bedridden person, the body weight of the bedridden person and the performer will be too heavy. Difficulty in body posture makes it impossible to perform sufficient washing, so the state of contamination remains, and the skin may be damaged when wiping off the dirt

Thus, bed sores due to insufficient washing are likely to occur in bedridden persons for a long time, which further deteriorates the quality of life (Quality Of Life, QOL) of long-term bedridden persons.

Thus, there is no effective washing method to prevent decubitus ulcers that occur in bedridden persons
