Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a cup for an automatic excretion disposal device and an automatic excretion disposal device for automatically disposing of excrement from a person requiring care. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, the number of people requiring care, such as elderly people and physically disabled people, who require assistance with excretion, has been increasing year by year. While the number of people requiring care is increasing, there is a chronic shortage of caregivers. This trend is expected to become even more pronounced in the future. For caregivers, dealing with the excretion of people requiring care is the greatest burden. Automatic excretion disposal devices have been proposed to assist such people requiring care with excretion and reduce the burden on caregivers.

[0003] The applicant has already proposed an automatic excretion disposal device and a cup for the automatic excretion disposal device that dispose of excrement from a person requiring care (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2). The automatic excretion disposal device comprises a cup that is attached to the body of the person requiring care, a drainage device that sucks up excrement in the cup and discharges it into a sewer pipe, and a washing device that supplies cleaning water from the water supply to wash the inside of the cup and the body. The automatic excretion disposal device described in Patent Document 1 can automatically supply water to wash the body of the person requiring care during excretion disposal, and automatically discharge excrement into the sewer.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 6635456 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2017-153950 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] A person requiring care spends a day in a variety of positions, such as lying down, tossing and turning, or tilting the bed to raise the upper body. When the person requiring care is in one of the above positions, a gap may form between the cup that collects the excrement and the person's body, potentially resulting in leakage of excrement and odors during excrement disposal. According to the technology described in Patent Document 1, even if a gap occurs between the cup and the body, air is sucked through the gap, thereby preventing leakage during excrement disposal. Through extensive research, the inventors have made further improvements to more reliably prevent leakage during excrement disposal.

[0006] An object of the present invention is to provide a cup for an automatic excretion disposal device and an automatic excretion disposal device that can reduce leakage during excretion disposal. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] One aspect of the present invention is a cup for an automatic excretion treatment device that is installed in an automatic excretion treatment device that automatically processes the excretion of a person requiring care, and includes a cup body that is attached to the body of the person requiring care and receives excreta, and an expansion body that is installed between the cup body and the body and expands when a working fluid is supplied to it, thereby coming into close contact with the body.

[0008] According to the present invention, an expansion body is provided between the cup body and the body of the person requiring care, and when the expansion body expands, the gap between the cup body and the body disappears, thereby reliably preventing leakage of cleaning water and excrement during excretion processing.

[0009] Furthermore, the working fluid of the present invention may be supplied to the cup body during excretion treatment.

[0010] According to the present invention, the device configuration can be simplified by using the air and cleaning water used during excretion treatment without providing any special device separately.

[0011] Furthermore, the working fluid of the present invention may be air supplied from an air supply device that supplies air into the cup body during excretion processing.

[0012] According to the present invention, the expandable body is expanded by utilizing part of the air supplied for drying the inside of the cup body during excretion processing, thereby simplifying the device configuration.

[0013] Furthermore, the working fluid of the present invention may be the cleaning water supplied from a cleaning device that supplies cleaning water into the cup body during excretion treatment.

[0014] According to the present invention, the expansion body is expanded by utilizing a portion of the washing water supplied for washing the inside of the cup body during excretion treatment, thereby simplifying the device configuration.

[0015] The inflatable body of the present invention may also be provided with a plurality of expansion chambers divided according to the position of contact with the body.

[0016] According to the present invention, the inflatable body is provided with a plurality of expansion chambers, which allows the shape of the inflatable body to easily conform to the body's shape.

[0017] The present invention may also include a plurality of pressure sensors that detect the pressure in each of the plurality of expansion chambers, and a control device that individually changes the degree of expansion in the plurality of expansion chambers based on the detected values of the plurality of pressure sensors.

[0018] According to the present invention, by individually changing the degree of expansion of the plurality of expansion chambers, the shape of the expandable body can be made to fit the body more easily.

[0019] The present invention may also include an adhesive layer provided between the inflatable body and the body, for adhering the inflatable body to the body.

[0020] According to the present invention, the adhesive layer brings the expandable body into close contact with the body, thereby reliably preventing leakage during excretory disposal.

[0021] The present invention may further comprise an anti-adhesion layer formed on the inner wall of the cup body to promote separation of the object to be treated from the inner wall.

[0022] According to the present invention, an anti-adhesion layer is formed on the inner wall of the cup body, which makes it easier for the material to be treated to peel off from the inner wall during excretory treatment, thereby shortening the treatment time and reducing the probability of leakage during excretory treatment.

[0023] Furthermore, the automatic excretion disposal device according to the present invention may include the above-mentioned cup for the automatic excretion disposal device.

[0024] According to the present invention, the automatic excretion treatment device cup provided with the expansion body is provided in the automatic excretion treatment device, thereby making it possible to reliably reduce leakage during excretion treatment. [Effects of the Invention]

[0025] According to the present invention, leakage during excretion treatment using an automatic excretion treatment device can be reduced. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0027] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of an automatic excretion disposal device according to the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings. The automatic excretion disposal device automatically disposes of excretion for a person requiring care.

[0028] As shown in Figure 1, the automatic excretion disposal device 1 includes a cup 2 (cup for the automatic excretion disposal device) that is attached to the body of a person requiring care, and a main body device 20 for cleaning the inside of the cup. The automatic excretion disposal device 1 is configured in accordance with the automatic excretion disposal device described in Patent Document 1. The automatic excretion disposal device 1 is not limited to this and may have other device configurations.

[0029] The main device 20 includes a cleaning device 24 that receives water from the water supply and cleans the inside of the cup 2 and the body of the person requiring care, a drainage device 26 that discharges the cleaning water and wastewater containing excrement discharged from the cup 2 into a sewer pipe, an air supply device 28 that circulates air inside the cup 2, and a control device 22 that controls the operation of each device.

[0030] The cup 2 comprises a detector 3 for detecting excrement, a cup body 6 attached to the crotch area of the care recipient, and an inflatable body 10 provided between the cup body 6 and the body of the care recipient.

[0031] Control device 22 is electrically connected to a detection unit 3 (described later) provided in cup 2. Based on the detection value of detection unit 3, control device 22 controls cleaning device 24, drainage device 26, and air supply device 28 to drain, clean, and dry the inside of cup 2.

[0032] The control device 22 comprehensively controls the cleaning device 24, the drainage device 26, and the air supply device 28, and executes the excretion treatment cycle. The control device 22 is realized by a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) executing a program (software). Some or all of these functional units may be realized by hardware such as an LSI (Large Scale Integration), an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), or an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), or may be realized by a combination of software and hardware.

[0033] The cleaning device 24 is connected to the cup body 6 by a water supply pipe Q. The cleaning device 24 is controlled based on the detected value, and supplies cleaning water supplied from the water supply system to the inside of the cup 2 via the water supply pipe Q. The cleaning device 24 supplies the amount of cleaning water set based on the detected value to the cup 2.

[0034] The drainage device 26 is connected to the cup body 6 via a drainage pipe D. The drainage device 26 is controlled based on the detected value, and sucks up the cleaning water and waste from inside the cup 2 via the drainage pipe D and discharges them outside the cup 2, while also discharging the cleaning water and waste into the sewer.

[0035] The air supply device 28 is connected to the cup body 6 via an air supply pipe A1. The air supply device 28 is controlled based on the detected value and supplies air to the inside of the cup body 6 during excretion processing. After excrement is discharged from the cup 2 and cleaned, the air supply device 28 supplies air to the inside of the cup 2 via the air supply pipe A1 to dry the inside of the cup 2 and the body of the care-requiring person. The air supply device 28 is also connected to the expandable body 10 via an air supply pipe A2. The air supply device 28 is controlled based on the detected value and supplies air to the inside of the expandable body 10. The air supply pipe A2 may be provided inside the cup 2, branching off from the air supply pipe A1. A valve (not shown) may be provided between the air supply pipe A1 and the air supply pipe A2. The valve is, for example, a solenoid valve whose opening and closing is controlled by the control device 22 to adjust the amount of air supplied. The valve may be a proportional solenoid valve whose opening and closing amount is arbitrarily adjusted.

[0036] With the above configuration, excrement is temporarily received inside cup 2, and cleaning water is supplied from the water supply by cleaning device 24 to clean the body of the care-requiring person and the inside of cup 2. In cup 2, the cleaning water and excrement are discharged into the sewer by drainage device 26. After cleaning, air is supplied to cup 2 by air supply device 28, and the washed body of the care-requiring person and the inside of cup 2 are dried.

[0037] The cup 2 is attached to the body of the care-requiring person and includes a cup body 6 for receiving excrement. Inside the cup body 6, for example, a detection unit 3 for detecting excrement is provided. The detection unit 3 is a capacitance sensor that electrically detects whether the excrement is solid or liquid. The detection value of the detection unit 3 is output to the control device 22. Based on the detection result of the detection unit 3, the excrement processing cycle of the automatic excrement processing device 1 is started.

[0038] An expandable body 10 is provided between the cup body 6 and the body of the care recipient. The expandable body 10 is controlled based on the detection value, and when excrement is detected inside the cup body 6, a working fluid is supplied to expand the expandable body 10, causing it to come into close contact with the body of the care recipient. The working fluid is, for example, air supplied by an air supply device 28. The expandable body 10 eliminates any gap between the body of the care recipient and the cup 2 when disposing of excrement, significantly reducing leakage of excrement.

[0039] Next, we will explain the specific shape of the cup 2. In the following explanation, the up-down direction of the cup 2 is defined in the state where the cup 2 is worn by the care-requiring person in a lying position.

[0040] 2 and 3, the cup 2 includes a cup body 6 that bulges outward to cover the crotch and anal area of the care recipient and has an internal space. The cup body 6 includes, for example, a first container 6A formed to cover the anal area of the care recipient, a second container 6B formed to cover the crotch area of the care recipient, and a third container 6C that connects the first container 6A and the second container 6B and is formed to cover the groin area of the care recipient. The cup body 6 is formed, for example, as a single unit from resin.

[0041] The cup body 6 is configured to receive excrement and discharge the excrement and cleaning water supplied from the cleaning device to the outside. An elastic member 6D with a curved cross section extends from the continuous edges of the first container 6A, the second container 6B, and the third container 6C. The elastic member 6D is made of, for example, silicone rubber. The elastic member 6D elastically deforms upon contact with the body, reducing gaps that occur between the edges of the first container 6A, the second container 6B, and the third container 6C and the body.

[0042] The first container 6A bulges downward and is curved upward at the connection with the third container 6C. For example, a detection unit 3 is provided inside the first container 6A. A pad portion 5 that supports the buttocks of the person requiring care is provided around the first container 6A. The pad portion 5 is formed in a plate shape. The pad portion 5 is made of an elastic material such as sponge rubber whose surface is covered with a waterproof sheet. The pad portion 5 is formed to be an appropriate size that is wider than the buttocks. A notch is formed in the pad portion 5 to accommodate the first container 6A. The pad portion 5 is formed to be detachable from the first container 6A. The pad portion 5 is detached from the first container 6A and can be washed as needed.

[0043] The pad section 5 is provided with a mounting and fixing member 7 that wraps around from the bottom surface of the pad section 5 to the abdomen of the person requiring care. The mounting and fixing member 7 is formed in a belt shape. Fixing parts 7A and 7B are provided at both ends of the mounting and fixing member 7 to fix the both ends to each other. The fixing parts 7A and 7B are formed by, for example, hook and loop fasteners.

[0044] The third container 6C is formed to extend vertically and bulge to cover the groin area. The third container 6C is provided with a connecting portion Q1 for the water supply pipe Q, a connecting portion D1 for the drain pipe D, a connecting portion A3 for the air supply pipe A1, and a connecting portion 3C for the detection unit 3. Through holes that communicate with the internal space of the third container 6C are formed in the connecting portions A3, Q1, and D1.

[0045] The second container 6B bulges upward and curves downward at the connection portion with the third container 6C. An air flow path 6B1 is formed on the outside of the second container 6B, which communicates with the air flow path inside the connection portion A3. The air flow path 6B1 extends from the connection portion between the second container 6B and the third container 6C to the tip of the second container 6B. The air flow path 6B1 is closed at the tip of the second container 6B. Multiple air outlets (not shown) communicating with the inside of the second container 6B are formed along the air flow path 6B1. When air is supplied from the air supply pipe A1 while the air supply pipe A1 is connected to the connection portion A3, the air flows through the air flow path 6B1 and is supplied into the second container 6B from the multiple outlets. A plate-shaped lid 8 is provided around the periphery of the second container 6B.

[0046] The lid 8 is formed in a flat plate shape around the second container 6B and curves downward at the joint between the second container 6B and the third container 6C. The lid 8 covers a predetermined area around the second container 6B when the second container 6B is attached to the care-requiring person, reducing leakage of cleaning water and excrement from around the second container 6B. The lid 8 is formed of an elastic material such as silicone resin so that it can conform to the shape of the body of the care-requiring person. An inflatable body 10 is provided on the underside of the lid 8.

[0047] The expandable body 10 comprises a bag body 11 that expands when a working fluid flows in, and a contact layer 9 that comes into contact with the body of the person requiring care. The contact layer 9 is formed in approximately the same shape as the lid portion 8 using the same elastic material. That is, the bag body 11 is sandwiched between the lid portion 8 and the contact layer 9. The underside of the contact layer 9 is made of, for example, silicone resin, and exhibits a predetermined adhesiveness when it comes into contact with the surface of the human body when attached, and has adhesive strength that allows it to be released to an extent that does not put a strain on the surface of the human body when removed. The contact layer 9 improves adhesion between the cup 2 and the body of the person requiring care. The expandable body 10 may be formed from the lid portion 8 and the contact layer 9. That is, the expandable body 10 may be formed integrally with the lid portion 8.

[0048] An adhesive layer may be provided between the expandable body 10 and the body to adhere the expandable body to the body. That is, an adhesive layer having a stronger adhesive strength than that of silicone resin may be formed on the lower surface side of the contact layer 9. The adhesive layer may have an adhesive strength similar to that of adhesive tape, for example. The adhesive layer may be formed using double-sided tape or the like.

[0049] As shown in Fig. 4, the bag body 11 is formed in a sheet-like state when not inflated. The upper surface side of the bag body 11 is attached to the lower surface side of the lid portion 8. The lower surface side of the bag body 11 is attached to the upper surface side of the contact layer 9. A cutout portion 12 for accommodating the second container 6B is formed in the center of the bag body 11. The bag body 11 is formed from a pair of sheets 13 of thermoplastic resin such as polyethylene.

[0050] The bag body 11 is formed by a pair of upper and lower sheet bodies 13. The outer edges of the two sheet bodies 13 are welded to form a welded portion 13A of a predetermined width. A flow path R is formed in a portion of the outer edges of the two sheet bodies 13 that is not welded. A valve portion 13B for supplying a working fluid is formed continuously with the flow path R. For example, an air supply pipe A2 is connected to the valve portion 13B, and air is supplied as the working fluid. With the above configuration, an expansion chamber is formed inside the bag body 11.

[0051] As shown in Fig. 5, the bag body 11 is sheet-shaped when not inflated. As shown in Fig. 6, the bag body 11 is formed so as to inflate when the working fluid is supplied thereto during excretion treatment.

[0052] With the above configuration, when the cup 2 is placed on the body of the care-requiring person, air is supplied from the air supply device 28 to the expandable body 10 via the air supply pipe A2 during excretion processing, causing the bag body 11 to expand. As the bag body 11 expands, the contact layer 9 is pressed against the body of the care-requiring person. The expanded bag body 11 is flexible and deforms according to the physical condition of the care-requiring person, so the contact layer 9 fits tightly against the body of the care-requiring person without any gaps.

[0053] When the expandable body 10 is in an expanded state, excrement is treated inside the cup body 6, preventing the cleaning water, excrement, and even odors inside the cup body 6 from leaking to the outside. The expandable body 10 also expands further due to the negative pressure generated inside the cup body 6 when excrement is sucked into the drain pipe D from inside the cup body 6 during excrement treatment. This further increases the degree of contact between the expandable body 10 and the body of the care recipient, preventing gaps from forming. Even when expanded, the expandable body 10 elastically deforms to conform to the shape of the body of the care recipient, preventing gaps from forming between the cup body 6 and the body of the care recipient due to the expansion of the expandable body 10, even if the posture of the body of the care recipient changes. The bag body 11 or the air supply pipe A2 may be provided with a regulator that adjusts the pressure of the air supplied from the air supply device 28.

[0054] After the excretion process is completed and the operation of the air supply device 28 is stopped, the expandable body 10 deflates as the air flows back through the air supply pipe A2. In other words, because the expandable body 10 is configured to expand during the excretion process, the burden on the body of the care recipient is reduced.

[0055] In the above embodiment, the inflatable body 10 is provided on the cover portion 8, but the inflatable body 10 may also be provided on the buttocks side of the body of the care recipient. That is, the inflatable body 10 may also be provided on the upper surface side of the pad portion 5.

[0056] The working fluid supplied to the bag 11 may be flush water supplied from the cleaning device 24. In this case, a separate water supply pipe from the cleaning device 24 may be connected to the cup body 6 in addition to the water supply pipe Q, or an expansion water supply pipe branching off from the water supply pipe Q may be connected to the cup body 6. An electromagnetic valve or the like may be provided between the water supply pipe Q and the expansion water supply pipe, and the amount of flush water supplied to the bag 11 may be adjusted by the control device 22. The bag 11 may be provided with a discharge port that discharges flush water from the bag 11 into the inside of the cup body 6. The discharge port may be formed by a regulator or a hole formed with a diameter that discharges flush water while maintaining the water pressure inside the bag 11 within a predetermined range.

[0057] [Variation 1] As shown in FIG. 7, the inflatable body 10 may have multiple expansion chambers 13R divided according to the position where it comes into contact with the body. The multiple expansion chambers 13R are each separated by a partition 13C formed by welding. Each expansion chamber 13R is provided with a pressure sensor 13S that detects the internal pressure. An air supply pipe A4 is individually connected to each expansion chamber 13R. Air is individually supplied to the multiple air supply pipes A4 from an air supply device 28. The air supply device 28 is controlled by the control device 22. The multiple air supply pipes A4 may be provided branching off from the air supply pipe A1. In this case, multiple valves (not shown) may be provided between the multiple air supply pipes A4 and the air supply pipe A1. Each valve is, for example, an electromagnetic valve whose opening and closing is controlled by the control device 22 to adjust the amount of air supplied. Each valve may be a proportional electromagnetic valve whose opening and closing amount is arbitrarily adjusted.

[0058] The control device 22 controls the air supply device 28 based on the detection value of the pressure sensor 13S to individually change the degree of inflation of the multiple expansion chambers 13R. With the above configuration, the control device 22 can individually change the degree of inflation of the multiple expansion chambers 13R depending on the physical condition of the care-requiring person. That is, the control device 22 can individually adjust the degree of inflation of the multiple expansion chambers 13R based on the detection value of the pressure sensor 13S so as not to place excessive strain on any part of the body of the care-requiring person. Furthermore, even if the body of the care-requiring person moves during excretion processing, causing a change in the degree of contact between the expandable body 10, the control device 22 can individually adjust the degree of inflation of the multiple expansion chambers 13R based on the detection value of the pressure sensor 13S, thereby maintaining the degree of contact between the expandable body 10 and the body and reliably preventing leakage during excretion processing.

[0059] [Variation 2] In order to prevent leakage from the cup body 6, it is also effective to form the shape of the cup body 6 so as to shorten the time required for excretory processing.

[0060] 8, an embossed anti-adhesion layer S having a plurality of dimple-like protrusions S1 is formed on the inner wall of the first container 6A of the cup body 6. The anti-adhesion layer S may be formed not only on the first container 6A but also on the inner walls of the second container 6B and the third container 6C.

[0061] 9, the formation of the anti-adhesion layer S increases the gap between the solid or semi-solid excrement X (object to be treated) and the inner wall of the first container 6A, preventing adhesion between the excrement X and the inner wall of the first container 6A. The formation of the anti-adhesion layer S facilitates the flow of cleaning water and air between the excrement X and the inner wall of the first container 6A, promoting separation of the excrement from the inner wall of the first container 6A and facilitating discharge of the excrement outside the cup body 6.

[0062] By making it easier to discharge excrement outside the cup body 6, it is possible to shorten the time required for excrement treatment and thereby reduce the probability of leakage of treated water or excrement from the cup body 6. The anti-adhesion layer S may be formed by embossing or by debossing with concave dimples, or may be formed by a layer of a chemical substance that prevents adhesion, such as a fluororesin coating.

[0063] As described above, according to the automatic excretion disposal device 1, the expandable body 10 provided in the cup 2 improves the degree of contact between the body of the care recipient and the cup 2, and reliably prevents leakage during disposal of excrement. According to the automatic excretion disposal device 1, the bag body 11 of the expandable body 10 is flexible when expanded and deforms according to the physical condition of the care recipient, reliably reducing the gap between the body and the cup 2. According to the automatic excretion disposal device 1, the expandable body 10 expands during excretion disposal and is normally deflated, thereby preventing strain on the body of the care recipient.

[0064] While one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. For example, the expandable body 10 may be formed in a diaper shape that is integral with or separable from the cup body 6, or may be designed to provide a tighter fit. If the expandable body 10 is provided with multiple expansion chambers 13R, the control device 22 may perform machine learning using deep learning based on the detection values of the pressure sensors 13S to individually and optimally adjust the inflation levels of the multiple expansion chambers 13R according to the physical condition of the person requiring care. Detection values of the pressure sensors 13S from multiple people requiring care may be aggregated in a server in a hospital, nursing facility, or the like, and the control device 22 may perform machine learning using deep learning based on the aggregated data.
