Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an excretion aid that can be used in the event of a disaster or the like. [Background technology]

[0002] During disasters, various inconveniences occur that do not occur in normal life. Among them, toilet inconveniences can be serious for women. If the water supply is cut off, flush toilets cannot be used. The portable toilets in evacuation centers also become unsanitary. Furthermore, for example, if one is trapped in an elevator for hours, not being able to relieve oneself can be a huge mental and physical burden. Even if there are not enough toilets in an evacuation center, women are reluctant to relieve themselves in the shadows like men do, but urinating in an uninhabited place poses the risk of sexual assault. It is easier to relieve oneself by sitting and applying abdominal pressure, but when the toilets in parks have stopped running and become unsanitary due to waste and it is not possible to sit, or when the space is too narrow to sit, there is no choice but to relieve oneself while standing, but this is difficult for women because urinating while standing causes waste to stick to their legs.

[0003] Due to these factors, women are more likely to refrain from drinking fluids in order to minimize the number of times they defecate. Such behavior puts them at risk of dehydration, and especially in the case of the elderly, there is a risk of aspiration pneumonia due to the weakening of swallowing function caused by not using the throat and the increase in germs in the mouth. Respiratory diseases such as pneumonia were the most common cause of disaster-related deaths in the Kumamoto earthquake that occurred in 2016.

[0004] In order to prevent such tragedies resulting from toilet problems, there was a need for an environment where women could easily relieve themselves during disasters.

[0005] Conventionally, there are disposable toilets for use in emergencies (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2013-248105 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] However, the conventional disaster toilets described in Patent Document 1 were disposable, and there was a problem that women could not urinate while standing. When a major disaster occurs, it can take three or four days for necessary supplies to arrive. Since disposable toilets do not last for three or four days, the problem arises that a large amount must be stocked.

[0008] The present invention has been made in consideration of these problems, and aims to provide an excretion aid that is reusable, inexpensive, compact, allows women to easily excrete while standing, is easy to carry, does not require a water supply, does not require space to squat, and is easy to use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0017] BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE DISCLOSURE The excretion aid of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings using examples of preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these. EXAMPLES

[0018] {composition} Fig. 1 is a plan view showing the excretion aid of the first embodiment of the present invention in a pre-assembled state. The excretion aid 1 shown in Fig. 1 is an excretion aid for women, which is assembled, has a bag attached, and is a tool that is placed between the legs while standing to receive excreta. It can also be used in a squatting position.

[0019] The excretion aid 1 is made of an alcohol-resistant resin sheet 2 formed in a generally V- or U-shaped symmetrical shape in plan view with a fold line 9 as an axis of symmetry, and is a flat plate folded in half before assembly, but after assembly, it becomes a cup-like shape with a handle and an open bottom. The material of the sheet is preferably polypropylene (PP), but may also be polyethylene (PE) or rigid polyvinyl chloride resin (PVC). When folded along the fold line 9, the excretion aid 1 is within A4 size.

[0020] The excretion aid 1 is composed of a rectangular left end portion 3 located to the left of a fold line 9 and having first to third notches 6, 12, and 13, a rectangular right end portion 4 located to the right of the fold line 9 and having fourth to sixth notches formed at the same intervals as the first to third notches 6, 12, and 13, and a main body portion 5 having a dogleg-shaped inner peripheral edge and a dogleg-shaped or C-shaped outer peripheral edge connecting the left end portion 3 and the right end portion 4. The fold line 9 is provided on a line connecting the center of the inner peripheral edge and the center of the outer peripheral edge of the main body portion 5. The first and second notches 6, 12 are provided on the inner peripheral side of the left end portion 3 at right angles to the inner peripheral edge with a length equal to or greater than half the width dimension of the left end portion 3. A third notch 13 is provided on the outer periphery of the left end 3, with a length equal to that of the first and second notches 6, 12, at an intermediate position between the first and second notches 6, 12, and parallel to the first and second notches 6, 12. Fourth and fifth notches 8, 14 are provided on the outer periphery of the right end 4, with a length equal to or more than half the width of the right end 4, and perpendicular to the outer periphery. A sixth notch 15 is provided on the inner periphery of the right end 4, with a length equal to that of the fourth and fifth notches 8, 14, at an intermediate position between the fourth and fifth notches 8, 14, and parallel to the fourth and fifth notches 8, 14.

[0021] The excretion aid 1 has a fold line side hook portion 16 which is a concave notch provided along the fold line 9, a left side hook portion 17 which is an L-shaped notch provided on the edge side of the left end portion 3, and a right side hook portion 18 which is an L-shaped notch provided on the edge side of the right end portion 4.

[0022] 1 is a generally U-shaped sheet 2, comprising a rectangular left end 3, a rectangular right end 4, and a body 5 curved into a C-shape connecting the left end 3 and the right end 4. The left end 3 is located to the left of the fold line 9 and has first through third notches 6, 12, and 13. The right end 4 is located to the right of the fold line 9 and has fourth through sixth notches 8, 14, and 15 spaced at equal intervals as the first through third notches 6, 12, and 13. The sheet 2 is assembled so that the distance from the bottom to the top is deep enough to receive urine and feces excrement.

[0023] The thickness of the sheet 2 depends on the material, but is preferably 0.4 mm or more in terms of strength, and 0.8 mm or less, which is a thickness that allows it to be folded and placed in a clear folder, and more preferably 0.5 mm. For example, the sheet 2 can be made of a material used in clear files, and is inexpensive because it is about the same thickness as a clear file. Since it can be folded and placed in an A4-sized clear file, it can be made compact during distribution, sale, and storage, and can be unfolded and assembled when used. After use, it can be wiped with rubbing alcohol, and can be folded and carried around.

[0024] The inner periphery of the main body 5 is formed in a dogleg shape, and a fold line 9 is provided. The angle between the left and right sides of the inner periphery is preferably 60 degrees to 130 degrees, and is 100 degrees in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the length of the fold line 9 is 106 mm. A person usually takes 150 to 300 cc of urine and about 200 g of feces at one time, and the length of the fold line 9 is preferably 100 mm or more to receive sufficient urine and feces. The outer periphery of the main body 5 is curved in a C-shape, so that the outer periphery side is arched. The arch of the outer periphery is r=290 mm in this embodiment, but it may be a straight line without a curve, or a gentle arch of about r=320 mm. By forming the inner periphery side in a dogleg shape, the bottom opening of the excretion aid 1 becomes flat in a side view when the sheet 2 is assembled. In addition, by forming the outer periphery into an arch shape, the upper opening of the excretion aid 1 is gently curved in side view when the sheet 2 is assembled. Therefore, according to this embodiment, it is easy to insert between the legs, there is no need to worry about the body hitting the corners of the fold lines, and feces and urine are less likely to spill out, preventing urine splashing.

[0025] The inner peripheral side is the part that constitutes the inner peripheral part of the sheet 2 when the excretion aid 1 is viewed in a plan view as shown in Fig. 1. The sheet 2 is formed in a substantially U-shape or a substantially V-shape in a plan view, and has an outer peripheral part that is disposed on the outside and an inner peripheral part that is disposed on the inside. In the assembled state described below, the part on the outer peripheral side (outer peripheral part) opens upward and serves as a receiving port for excrement, and the part on the inner peripheral side (inner peripheral part) opens downward and serves as the outflow side of excrement, i.e., the bottom side of the vinyl bag that receives excrement, and can be placed on the floor or ground when used while squatting.

[0026] As shown in the figure, the sheet 2 is formed in a symmetrical (line-symmetrical) shape with the fold line 9 as the reference axis. This makes the shape after assembly symmetrical, as described later, and allows the plastic bag to be held in a well-balanced manner. The left end 3 and the right end 4 are rectangular, and the inner and outer periphery sides are linear as shown in the figure. Each side end is preferably 100 to 120 mm long, since it is difficult to assemble if it is too long, and does not function as a grip if it is too short. In this embodiment, holes 3a and 4a are provided at the left end 3 and the right end 4. The radius of the hole is 13 mm in this embodiment, but it is preferable that the hole has a radius of 10 to 15 mm so that it is strong enough to allow a woman's finger to enter. Although it is not necessary to provide a hole, it is preferable to provide one so that it is easy to grip.

[0027] In the left end portion 3, the first notch 6, the second notch 12, and the third notch 13 are formed in parallel with each other with the same length and interval. In this embodiment, each notch is perpendicular to the fold line 9. The first notch 6 and the second notch 12 are each formed by cutting at a right angle from the inner peripheral edge side of the left end portion 3 to a length equal to or greater than half the width dimension of the left end portion 3 (preferably a length slightly more than half). The third notch 13 is formed from the outer peripheral edge side of the left end portion 3 to a length equal to the first and second notches 6, 12, at the intermediate position between the first and second notches 6, 12, and parallel to the first and second notches 6, 12. In this embodiment, the distance between the first notch 6 and the third notch 13 and the distance between the second notch 12 and the third notch 13 are both 20 mm.

[0028] The right end portion 4 has a fourth notch 8, a fifth notch 14, and a sixth notch 15 formed in parallel with each other at the same length and intervals. The fourth notch 8 and the fifth notch 14 are each formed by cutting at a right angle from the outer peripheral edge side of the right end portion 4 to a length equal to or greater than half the width dimension of the right end portion 4 (preferably a length slightly more than half). The sixth notch 15 is formed from the inner peripheral edge side of the right end portion 4 to a length equal to the fourth and fifth notches 8, 14, at a midpoint between the fourth and fifth notches 8, 14, and parallel to the fourth and fifth notches 8, 14. This makes it possible to insert the sixth notch 15 into the corresponding notches and connect them during assembly.

[0029] In this embodiment, the sheet 2 has three fold-line side hook portions 16 formed by providing concave notches along the fold line 9, a left hook portion 17 formed by cutting the edge side of the left end portion 4 into an L-shape, and a right hook portion 18 formed by cutting the edge side of the right end portion 5 into an L-shape. The fold-line side hook portion 16, the left hook portion 17, and the right hook portion 18 are provided so that when the excretion aid 1 is assembled and the edge of a bag such as a vinyl garbage bag is hooked onto each hook portion and set, the bag does not easily slip off even if a load is applied to the bag. Note that the shapes of these hook portions 16, 17, and 18 are merely examples. In this embodiment, the fold-line side hook portions 16 are formed in three places at arbitrary intervals above and below, and the left hook portion 17 and the right hook portion 18 are formed in one place each, but the numbers of these are also set arbitrarily.

[0030] {Assembly Instructions} Next, the procedure for assembling the sheet 2 for use as the excretion aid 1 will be described. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the procedure for assembling the sheet shown in FIG. 1 into the excretion aid. FIG. 2 shows both ends of the sheet 2 from the inside (the valley fold side) in a state where the side ends are held in the hands and assembled with the side ends 3 and 4 on top and the main body 5 on the bottom. FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the excretion aid of the first embodiment of the present invention in a state where it is assembled according to the procedure shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 3 shows the fold line 9 as the near side. First, the sheet 2 is folded in a valley along the fold line 9. Next, the left end 3 and the right end 4 are connected to each other in the order shown in FIG. 2 (A), (B), (C), and (D). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1(A), first, the third notch 13 and the sixth notch 15 are inserted into each other so that the left end portion 3 and the right end portion 4 are both positioned on the valley fold surface of the sheet 2 (the surface that forms the inner surface when assembled into a cup shape) (FIG. 1(B) shows the state after the notches 13, 15 have been inserted).

[0031] Next, as shown by the arrow in (B) of the same, the left end portion 3 is lifted up so that the left end portion 3 is positioned on the outer surface side (the folded surface side) of the main body portion 5, and the first notch 6 and the fifth notch 14 are inserted into each other ((C) of the same shows the state after each notch 6, 14 has been inserted).

[0032] Finally, as shown by the arrow in (C), lift up the right end portion 4 so that the right end portion 4 is positioned on the outer surface side (the folded surface side) of the main body portion 5, and insert the fourth notch 8 and the second notch 12 into each other ((D) in the same figure shows the state after each notch 8, 12 has been inserted).

[0033] The excretion aid 1 is assembled according to the above procedure. After assembly, the left end 3 and the right end 4 are connected to each other and are each disposed on the outer surface side of the main body 5 (see FIG. 3). Note that the above assembly procedure is one example, and for example, the fourth notch 8 and the second notch 12 may be inserted into each other before the first notch 6 and the fifth notch 14 are inserted into each other (see FIG. (B)), and which one is to be inserted first is optional.

[0034] Next, a method of using the excretion aid 1 will be described. Fig. 4 is an explanatory diagram of the use of the excretion aid of the first embodiment of the present invention, shown from the side with a plastic bag attached. In particular, the state with a plastic bag attached is shown. The excretion aid 1 is used with a plastic bag B attached. Any plastic bag can be selected, and for example, a bag provided when shopping may be used.

[0035] The excretion aid 1 assembled in the above manner comprises a funnel-shaped plastic bag holding portion and a gripping portion (flap) that can be held with the fingertips. The gripping portion is made up of side ends 3 and 4. The plastic bag holding portion is open at the top and bottom, with the upper opening serving as a receiving port for excrement and the lower opening serving as an outlet for excrement. Plastic bag B is inserted from either the top or bottom opening (preferably the upper opening) so that its bottom is positioned at the bottom. Parts of plastic bag B are hooked onto hook portions 16, 17, and 18.

[0036] {effect} According to the excretion aid 1 of this embodiment, it is possible to provide an excretion aid that is reusable, inexpensive, compact, allows women to easily excrete while standing, is easy to carry, does not require plumbing, does not require space to squat, and is easy to use.

[0037] The excretion aid 1 can provide a simple kit that allows the user to excrete without getting their hands dirty by attaching and detaching a plastic bag. It is also easy to assemble and disassemble, so the bag can be replaced and reused. It is also A4 size and thin, making it easy to carry.

[0038] The excretion aid 1 can provide a simple kit that allows the user to excrete without getting their hands dirty by attaching and detaching a plastic bag. Since it is easy to assemble and disassemble, it can be reused by replacing the bag. Even when folded to A4 size, it is only 1 mm thick, and the whole device is small enough to easily fit into a briefcase, making it easy to carry and portable.

[0039] The plastic bag is replaceable and is removed from the aid after excretion and discarded. The sheet is made of alcohol-resistant resin, so it can be reused by simply wiping it with rubbing alcohol. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a society where people carry around rubbing alcohol and disinfectant wipes, so it is very convenient to be able to reuse the bag in the event of a disaster by simply wiping it with rubbing alcohol provided at evacuation shelters or with disinfectant wipes that people have carried with them.

[0040] The excretion aid of this embodiment may be made from a thick A4-sized clear file. When folded, it is smaller than A4 size, so it can be displayed on a rack for documents such as flyers. Since it is compact, it can also be placed in an emergency chair in an elevator. When assembled, all that is required is to insert your fingers into the holes 3a and 4a and insert it between your legs from the front, so that women can easily excrete while standing without any practice. It can also be used by men.

[0041] In addition, the excretion aid of this embodiment is flat in the sheet state before assembly, and does not take up space, making it easy to store. It can be assembled without using tools, making it easy to use in emergencies such as disasters. In addition, the excretion aid is cup-shaped with an open bottom side where the handle is located, with a wide open outer periphery side located on the upper side and a narrow inner periphery side located on the lower side. Therefore, it is easy to receive a wide range of excretion and to collect it in a plastic bag. When in use, it can be used hygienically by grasping the flap. When in use, by hooking a part of the plastic bag on the hook notch, the plastic bag can be stably held against the weight of the plastic bag. The excretion aid can be easily produced by cutting out a plastic plate by pressing or the like.

[0042] When assembled and in a cup shape, it can be held in one hand, so you can rest your hands against a wall to ensure a standing position, or you can squat down to relieve yourself stably. If you wear a long flared skirt or tie it around your waist, you can relieve yourself while hiding what's inside.

[0043] Therefore, according to this embodiment, toilet problems during disasters can be eliminated and women's health can be protected. EXAMPLES

[0044] Fig. 5 is a plan view showing the state before assembly of the excretion aid of Example 2 of the present invention. The excretion aid 21 of Example 2 of the present invention has the same basic structure as the excretion aid 1 shown in Fig. 1, but the sheet 22 is slimmer than that of the excretion aid 1, and the shape after assembly is compact.

[0045] The excretion aid 21 consists of a sheet 22 which is formed in a generally V-shaped symmetrical shape in a planar view with a fold line 29 as an axis of symmetry. The sheet 22 is composed of a rectangular left end portion 23 which is arranged to the left of the fold line 29 and has first to third notches 26, 32, 33, a rectangular right end portion 24 which is arranged to the right of the fold line 29 and has fourth to sixth notches 28, 34, 35 which are formed at equal intervals as the first to third notches 26, 32, 33, and a main body portion 25 which is bent in a dogleg shape to connect the left end portion 23 and the right end portion 24 and has an inner peripheral edge which is formed in a dogleg shape and on which the fold line 29 is provided.

The third notch 33 is formed from the outer peripheral edge of the left end 23 to a length equal to the first and second notches 26, 32, at an intermediate position between the first and second notches 26, 32, and parallel to the first and second notches 26, 32. The fourth and fifth notches 28, 34 are each formed by cutting at a right angle from the outer peripheral edge of the right end 24 to a length equal to or more than half the width of the right end 24, and the sixth notch 35 is formed from the inner peripheral edge of the right end 24 to a length equal to the fourth and fifth notches 28, 34, at an intermediate position between the fourth and fifth notches 28, 34, and parallel to the fourth and fifth notches 28, 34.

[0047] In addition, it has a fold line side hook portion formed by providing a concave notch along the fold line 29, a left hook portion formed by cutting an L-shaped edge side of the left end portion 23, and a right hook portion formed by cutting an L-shaped edge side of the right end portion 24. The assembly procedure, method of use, and effects of this excretion aid 21 are common to the excretion aid 1 shown in Fig. 1, so explanations will be omitted. EXAMPLES

[0048] Moreover, Fig. 6 is a plan view showing the state before assembly of the excretion aid of Example 3 of the present invention. The excretion aid 41 shown in Fig. 6 has the same structure as the excretion aid 1 shown in Fig. 1, but the sheet body 42 is wider than that of the excretion aid 1, and after assembly, it has a large-capacity cup shape.

[0049] The excretion aid 41 consists of a sheet 42 which is formed in a generally V-shaped symmetrical shape in a planar view with a fold line 49 as an axis of symmetry. The sheet 42 is composed of a rectangular left end portion 43 which is arranged to the left of the fold line 49 and has first to third notches 46, 52, 53, a rectangular right end portion 44 which is arranged to the right of the fold line 49 and has fourth to sixth notches 48, 54, 55 which are formed at the same intervals as the first to third notches 46, 52, 53, and a main body portion 45 which is bent in a dogleg shape to connect the left end portion 43 and the right end portion 44 and has an inner peripheral edge which is formed in a dogleg shape and on which the fold line 49 is provided.

[0050] The first and second notches 46, 52 are each formed by cutting at a right angle from the inner peripheral edge of the left end 43 to a length equal to or more than half the width of the left end 43. The third notch 53 is formed from the outer peripheral edge of the left end 43 to a length equal to the first and second notches 46, 52, at an intermediate position between the first and second notches 46, 52, and parallel to the first and second notches 46, 52. The fourth and fifth notches 48, 54 are each formed by cutting at a right angle from the outer peripheral edge of the right end 44 to a length equal to or more than half the width of the right end 44, and the sixth notch 55 is formed from the inner peripheral edge of the right end 44 to a length equal to the fourth and fifth notches 48, 54, and parallel to the fourth and fifth notches 48, 54.
