Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of infant hygiene products technology, and in particular to a diaper for collecting urine samples from infants. Background Technology
[0002] In pediatric clinical diagnosis, urine testing is one of the important means to assess the function of the urinary system, metabolic status and overall health of infants and young children. Since infants and young children cannot control urination on their own and are difficult to cooperate with routine urine collection procedures, how to achieve safe, effective and non-invasive urine sample collection has always been a technical challenge in clinical practice.
[0003] Currently, commonly used methods for collecting urine from infants and young children mainly include catheterization and collection using ordinary diapers. While catheterization can obtain relatively pure urine samples, the procedure is invasive and can easily cause local irritation, pain, and even urinary tract infections, especially for newborns and premature infants, thus limiting its clinical application. On the other hand, while collecting urine using ordinary diapers is a non-invasive method that is simple to operate and highly safe, its structural design does not take into account the special needs of urine sampling. Once urine is discharged, it is quickly absorbed and dispersed by the absorbent material inside the diaper, making it difficult to completely separate and extract the urine sample. Medical staff or parents usually need to cut open the diaper and squeeze the absorbent layer to obtain a small amount of residual urine, which is not only cumbersome but also prone to sample contamination, mixing, or loss, affecting the accuracy and reliability of subsequent test results.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a convenient and efficient diaper for collecting urine samples from infants and young children, which can achieve rapid, clean, and complete collection of urine samples without affecting the comfort and hygiene of infants and young children, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of clinical urine testing. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing ordinary diapers in the process of urine sample collection, such as cumbersome operation and easy sample contamination or loss, this utility model provides a convenient and efficient diaper for collecting urine samples from infants.
[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model employs the following technical solution: a diaper for collecting urine samples from infants, comprising a diaper body, an absorbent core layer disposed in the center of the front side of the diaper body, leak-proof side panels disposed on both sides of the diaper body, an adhesive ring disposed in the center of the back side of the diaper body, the adhesive ring being arranged corresponding to the infant's urination position, a dispensing hole being provided in the absorbent core layer at the position corresponding to the adhesive ring, a dispensing film being disposed inside the adhesive ring, and a reinforcing edge being provided on the edge of the adhesive ring.
[0007] More preferably, a protective film is pasted in the middle of the back of the diaper body.
[0008] More preferably, the diaper body has transparent observation strips on both sides, and the outer surface of the transparent observation strips is provided with a temperature-sensitive color-changing coating.
[0009] More preferably, the diaper body has absorbent cotton pads at both ends.
[0010] More preferably, a leak-proof bottom layer is provided between the diaper body and the absorbent core layer.
[0011] More preferably, the surface of the absorbent core layer is provided with a skin-friendly surface layer.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following technical effects: 1. By setting a sampling hole in the absorbent core layer and setting a sampling membrane below it, an independent sampling chamber is formed. The urine sample flows into the sampling membrane through the sampling hole and is stored separately. The original urine sample can be effectively collected without interfering with the normal urination process of infants and young children, avoiding adsorption, dilution or contamination by the absorbent material, ensuring the integrity and cleanliness of the sample, and facilitating the accuracy of subsequent testing.
[0013] 2. The diaper has transparent observation strips on both sides with a temperature-sensitive color-changing coating on its surface. The color changes according to temperature changes, which can indicate abnormal body temperature or changes in the internal environment of the diaper, making it easier for caregivers to keep track of the health status.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-3 A diaper for collecting urine samples from infants includes a diaper body 1. An absorbent core layer 2 is located in the center of the front of the diaper body 1. Leak-proof side panels 3 are provided on both sides of the diaper body 1 to prevent urine leakage and improve wearing safety and comfort. An adhesive ring 4 is located in the center of the back of the diaper body 1, corresponding to the infant's urination position. The absorbent core layer 2 has a sampling hole at the position corresponding to the adhesive ring 4, allowing urine to flow into the sampling area through the hole. A sampling film 5 is provided inside the adhesive ring 4, forming an independent sampling chamber for collecting and preserving a portion of the original urine sample, thereby preventing urine from being absorbed by the absorbent core layer 2 or becoming contaminated. Reinforcing edges 6 are provided on the edges of the adhesive ring 4 to enhance its structural strength and adhesive stability, thereby improving the overall wearing stability and reliability. A protective film 7 is adhered to the center of the back of the diaper body 1 to seal and protect the adhesive ring 4, preventing surface contamination.
[0021] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The diaper body 1 has absorbent cotton pads 10 at both the front and back ends to absorb the sweat of infants and young children, improve the dryness and comfort of the wearing area, and prevent local dampness from causing skin irritation or rashes. A leak-proof bottom layer 11 is provided between the diaper body 1 and the absorbent core layer 2. The leak-proof bottom layer 11 is a waterproof or leak-proof material layer to prevent urine from seeping down to the outer layer of the diaper and avoid contaminating clothing or the external environment. A skin-friendly surface layer 12 is provided on the surface of the absorbent core layer 2. The skin-friendly surface layer 12 is made of soft non-woven fabric or hot air cotton and comes into direct contact with the infant's skin, which plays a role in smoothness, breathability and reducing friction and irritation.
[0022] In use, the diaper body 1 is worn by the infant. When the infant urinates naturally, the urine first falls onto the inner surface of the diaper and enters different functional areas under the action of gravity. A portion of the urine flows through the sampling hole into the closed sampling chamber formed by the sampling film 5 below, where it is collected separately and retained in a relatively sealed space. The majority of the remaining urine is absorbed by the absorbent core layer 2, keeping the inside of the diaper dry and hygienic. Because the sampling film 5 has good sealing performance and a certain volume space, it can effectively prevent urine leakage, diffusion or evaporation, ensuring the integrity and cleanliness of the collected urine sample, which is beneficial to the accuracy of subsequent test results. After the infant urinates, medical staff or parents can directly take out the urine sample from the sampling film 5 without cutting the diaper or squeezing the absorbent material, which significantly simplifies the sampling process, reduces the risk of sample contamination or loss, and improves sampling efficiency and clinical operation convenience.
[0023] Example 2: Based on Example 1, please refer to... Figure 4 The diaper body 1 has transparent observation strips 8 on both the left and right sides. The outer surface of the transparent observation strips 8 is provided with a temperature-sensitive color-changing coating 9, which is used to display color changes according to temperature changes, thereby indicating abnormal body temperature of infants or changes in the internal environment of the diaper.
[0024] When an infant's body temperature rises or the temperature inside the diaper changes due to urine buildup, the temperature-sensitive color-changing coating 9 changes color accordingly, thus providing a clear indication to caregivers. This helps determine if fever, urination, or other issues have occurred, or if the diaper needs to be changed promptly. This not only enhances the functionality of the diaper but also improves the convenience of care and real-time monitoring capabilities.
[0025] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the content described in the claims of the present utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
