Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of toilet technology, specifically relating to an improved toilet. Background Technology

[0002] In medical care and daily life scenarios, bedpans are important devices that provide convenience for defecation for people with limited mobility, such as patients and the elderly. Traditional bedpans are usually single-function, only meeting basic defecation needs.

[0003] With the development of medical technology and the increasing sophistication of patient care, the use of existing bedpans presents numerous inconveniences for patients requiring urinary catheters. Patients often need to use both a bedpan and a catheter, which not only increases the complexity of nursing staff's work, such as the need to separately handle bedpan cleaning and catheter care, but also has shortcomings in the connection between the bedpan and its lid. Existing ordinary bedpans often lack an effective locking mechanism, relying solely on simple placement or basic clips. In the event of accidental collisions, movement, or involuntary patient movement, the lid can easily detach from the bedpan. This not only causes odors, affecting the air quality of the ward or living environment, but may also lead to the overflow of excrement from the bedpan, further increasing the difficulty and workload of hygiene and cleaning, increasing the risk of cross-infection, and hindering the maintenance of the patient's recovery environment and the improvement of overall nursing quality.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a bedpan 1 and a silicone top plate 11 are included. A cover plate 2 is provided at the top of the bedpan 1. A pull-out slot 21 is provided on one side of the cover plate 2. The bedpan 1 is snapped into the inner wall of the pull-out slot 21. A urinary catheter 3 is installed at the top of the cover plate 2. A urinary bladder 31 is installed at one end of the urinary catheter 3. The urinary catheter 3 communicates with the internal space of the bedpan 1 through the cover plate 2. A U-shaped support plate 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the bedpan 1. A folding handle 41 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped support plate 4. A sliding groove 42 is provided on one side of the folding handle 41. A push rod 43 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 42. A dual-purpose limiting rod 431 is installed at the top of the push rod 43. A limiting slot 44 is provided on the inner side of the U-shaped support plate 4. The dual-purpose limiting rod 431 is inserted into the inner wall of the limiting slot 44. A protruding plate 24 is installed on one side of the cover plate 2. The dual-purpose limiting rod 431 contacts the end of the protruding plate 24.

[0022] In this implementation scheme: the toilet bowl 1 supports all components of the device. The toilet bowl 1 forms a cavity for collecting and storing excrement through the silicone top plate 11. A notch is formed at the top between the toilet bowl 1 and the silicone top plate 11 to facilitate the entry of excrement. The cover plate 2 seals the top opening of the toilet bowl 1. When the cover plate 2 is connected to the toilet bowl 1 and the silicone top plate 11, it is a horizontal push-pull sliding operation, so that the pull-out slot 21 can be locked on one side of the silicone top plate 11, completing the locking of one side of the cover plate 2. The U-shaped support plate 4 supports the folding handle 41. The folding handle 41 can be adjusted vertically and horizontally. When the folding handle 41 is in the vertical state, the folding handle 41 is folded to reduce the space occupied. The folding handle 41 provides clearance and sliding guidance for the push rod 43 through the sliding groove 42. The push rod 43 adjusts the dual-purpose limiting rod 431 by pushing and pulling. When the dual-purpose limiting rod 431 is extended, it can be inserted into the limiting slot 44 and... The folding handle 41 is held in place at one end of the protruding plate 24, allowing it to be used stably. When the folding handle 41 is in a vertical position, the dual-purpose limiting rod 431 can stably limit the protruding plate 24, which in turn limits the cover plate 2, preventing it from being pulled out. This locks the cover plate 2, solving the problem of the lid accidentally detaching from the bedpan, causing odors and affecting the air quality of the ward or living environment. It can also cause excrement in the bedpan to overflow, further increasing the difficulty and workload of hygiene and cleaning, increasing the risk of cross-infection, and hindering the maintenance of the patient's recovery environment and the improvement of overall nursing quality. The connection between the cover plate 2 and the urinary catheter 3 allows the urinary catheter 3 to stably guide urine into the interior of the cover plate 2. The urinary catheter 3 is easily connected to the urine via the urinary cup 31, allowing this new invention to handle both urination and defecation simultaneously, reducing the operational complexity for nursing staff.

[0023] The top of the cover plate 2 is equipped with a torsion post 22 and a limiting plate 23. The torsion post 22 and the limiting plate 23 are symmetrically distributed. The catheter 3 is coiled and secured below the limiting plate 23. The torsion post 22 facilitates the pulling and pulling control of the cover plate 2. The limiting plate 23 is designed to rotate. A damping pad is provided between the limiting plate 23 and the cover plate 2, making it difficult for the limiting plate 23 to rotate. When not in use, the catheter 3 can be coiled and stored. The limiting plate 23 covers and secures the coiled catheter 3 to prevent it from accidentally falling out and to maintain stability.

[0024] The end of the urinary catheter 3 is rotatably connected to a spiral fastening cover 32, which is threaded to the top of the cover plate 2. The cover plate 2 locks the urinary catheter 3 in place through the spiral fastening cover 32, so that one end of the urinary catheter 3 can be firmly connected to the cover plate 2, thereby improving the stability of the urinary catheter 3 in guiding urine into the cover plate 2.

[0025] A bottom plug 12 is installed at the bottom of the toilet bowl 1. The bottom plug 12 is flush with both ends of the bottom of the toilet bowl 1. The bottom plug 12 seals the opening at the bottom of the toilet bowl 1. When the bottom plug 12 is removed, it is convenient to clean the toilet bowl 1. The cleaning water can be discharged through the opening at the bottom of the toilet bowl 1 without having to turn the toilet bowl 1 over to discharge through the opening at the top. Furthermore, the flush effect between the bottom plug 12 and the toilet bowl 1 reduces the residue of dirt and the impact on the stability of the toilet bowl 1 when it is placed.

[0026] Several grid grooves 411 are provided on both sides of the folding handle 41. The grid grooves 411 are not connected to the inside of the slide 42. A return spring 421 is installed on the inner wall of the slide 42. The return spring 421 is installed at the bottom of the push rod 43. The several grid grooves 411 on both sides of the folding handle 41 increase the friction and stability between itself and the caregiver, reducing the occurrence of accidental slippage. The return spring 421 pushes the push rod 43, so that the push rod 43 can stably push the dual-purpose limit rod 431 to complete the locking work.

[0027] A limiting top plate 45 is installed at one end of the folding handle 41, and the limiting top plate 45 contacts the inner wall of the U-shaped support plate 4. The folding handle 41 supports the limiting top plate 45. After the folding handle 41 is flipped to a horizontal state, the limiting top plate 45 can contact the inner side of the U-shaped support plate 4, so that the folding handle 41 cannot continue to rotate upward, thereby improving the stability of the folding handle 41 during use.

[0028] A clamping mechanism 5 is installed on one side of the bedpan 1. A screw 51 is threaded to the top of the clamping mechanism 5, and a squeezing plate 52 is rotatably connected to one end of the screw 51. The bedpan 1 and the clamping mechanism 5 support each other. By rotating the screw 51, the clamping space between the squeezing plate 52 and the clamping mechanism 5 is opened. The clamping mechanism 5 and the squeezing plate 52 are clamped in a position such as the bedside and then tightened and locked, so that the bedpan 1 can be used in different positions, which increases both portability and stability.

[0029] The working principle and usage of this utility model are as follows: When the patient urinates, they can choose to open the cover plate 2 or the catheter 3 depending on the situation of urination and defecation. When using the catheter 3, rotate the spiral fastening cover 32 to pull out the catheter 3 and the urinary cup 31. The catheter 3 guides the urine into the cover plate 2. When the cover plate 2 is removed, pull the push rod 43 to retract the dual-purpose limiting rod 431, thus unlocking the protruding plate 24. Then, the dual-purpose limiting rod 431 is inserted into the limiting slot. In step 44, the bedpan 1 is controlled by holding the folding handle 41. After use, the cover 2 is connected to the bedpan 1, and the dual-purpose limiting rod 431 locks the cover 2 again. This solves the problem that the lid is easy to accidentally detach from the bedpan, causing odor to spread and affecting the air quality of the ward or living environment. It may also cause the excrement in the bedpan to overflow, further increasing the difficulty and workload of hygiene and cleaning, increasing the risk of cross-infection, and is not conducive to the maintenance of the patient's recovery environment and the improvement of the overall quality of care.
