AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The use of powdered polymer absorbent resin in portable toilets requires manual insertion post-urination, which is labor-intensive and can lead to reduced water absorption due to solidification at the bottom, compromising performance.

Method used

A cylindrical fibrous paper filled with powdered absorbent resin, sealed in a rod shape and enclosed in a non-woven fabric bag, is pre-inserted into the toilet to facilitate easy use and uniform water distribution.

Benefits of technology

Eliminates the need for post-urination insertion, maintains resin dispersion, ensures uniform water absorption, and allows for easy disposal of used bags for reuse of the toilet.

Abstract

The present invention provides a superabsorbent polymer packaging that prevents the absorbent material from clumping at the bottom of a portable toilet or similar device, reducing its absorbency, when the powdered absorbent material has been added in advance. [Solution] A fibrous paper 1 that decomposes and disperses quickly with water is molded into a cylindrical shape, and powdered superabsorbent polymer resin 3 is filled inside to form a rod-shaped molded body 6. Then, a fibrous nonwoven fabric 4 is molded into a bag shape, and the rod-shaped molded body is sealed inside, so that the superabsorbent polymer resin does not clump together and can absorb moisture uniformly.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a technology of a polymer absorbent resin package when using an apparatus that pre-inserts a polymer absorbent agent before using a portable toilet, a urine drainage assisting device, or the like.

Background Art

[0002] Polymer absorbent resins are widely used in disposable diapers and sanitary products because of their high ability to retain water inside the resin. They are also used as a treatment agent for solidifying urine in portable toilets.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] When using a polymer absorbent resin in a portable toilet or the like, usually it is explained that the powdered polymer absorbent resin is to be inserted after urination, but this requires a lot of labor and delicate situation judgment. If the powdered polymer absorbent resin is pre-inserted into a portable toilet or the like, the polymer absorbent resin will solidify at the bottom of the bag during urination, resulting in a decrease in the water absorption ability, and the expected water absorption ability cannot be obtained.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0004] A fibrous paper that is quickly decomposed and dispersed by water is formed into a cylindrical shape, filled with powdered polymer absorbent resin therein, sealed in a rod shape, and then the molded body is enclosed in a bag-shaped fibrous non-woven fabric or the like, and each non-woven fabric bag is put into a portable toilet or the like for use.

Effects of the Invention

[0005] By using a portable toilet or the like with each non-woven fabric bag put in it, the labor of inserting the powdered polymer absorbent resin after urination is eliminated. Also, since the polymer absorbent resin is held by the fibrous paper, it prevents the powder from being biased and solidified, and the water is uniformly supplied through the fibrous paper, so that the water absorption performance can be quickly exhibited. In addition, the non-woven fabric bag that has absorbed urine can be taken out and discarded, so that the portable toilet or the like can be reused. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0006] [Figure 1] This is an explanatory diagram illustrating the present invention. Parts of the molded body (6) are shown in cross-section in explanations (1), (2), and (3). [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0007] A fibrous paper that quickly decomposes and disperses in water is molded into a cylindrical shape, filled with powdered superabsorbent polymer resin, and sealed into a rod shape. Then, the molded body is enclosed in a bag made of a fibrous nonwoven fabric that does not decompose and disperse in water, and a thread is attached to the end of the nonwoven fabric bag to serve as a hanging string. [Examples]

[0008] A fibrous paper (1) that quickly decomposes and disperses with water, such as toilet paper or water-soluble paper, is molded into a cylindrical shape with an outer diameter of 10 to 20 mm, and one end is sealed to the inside of the cylinder with glue (2). Then, 2 to 10 g of powdered superabsorbent polymer resin (3) is filled into the cylinder, and the other end is sealed to the inside of the cylinder with glue (2). After that, a fibrous nonwoven fabric (4) that does not decompose and disperse with water is molded into a bag shape by heat welding (5), and the molded body (6) is placed inside and sealed by heat welding (5). Furthermore, a thread is sewn or welded to the end of the nonwoven fabric (4) bag to serve as a hanger string (7). The length of the molded body (6) needs to be changed depending on the amount of superabsorbent polymer resin, and the size of the nonwoven fabric (4) bag also needs to be changed to match the length of the molded body (6). For a maximum water supply of 200cc, the outer diameter of the molded body (6) should be 10-14mm and the length 110-130mm, and the outer dimensions of the nonwoven fabric bag (4) should be approximately 140-150mm x 90-100mm.

Claims

1. A superabsorbent polymer packaging is characterized by the fact that when water is added, water is supplied to the entire superabsorbent polymer by the fibrous paper, which is distributed throughout the superabsorbent polymer, without clumping or uneven distribution, as water is not distributed unevenly or clumped together. This is achieved by molding fibrous paper, which is quickly decomposed and dispersed by water, into a cylindrical shape, filling it with powdered superabsorbent polymer, sealing it in a rod shape, and then enclosing the molded body inside a bag made of fibrous nonwoven fabric or the like that is not decomposed and dispersed by water.

2. A superabsorbent polymer packaging characterized by having a thread or tape attached to the edge of the nonwoven fabric bag that constitutes the superabsorbent polymer packaging, so that when removing the absorbed superabsorbent polymer packaging from portable toilets, urinary aids, etc., the packaging can be pulled up by the thread or tape without directly touching it with the hands.
