Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a wearable flushing device, and more particularly to a wearable portion for a wearable flushing device and a diaper pad for the wearable portion. [Background technology]

[0002] Patients who are bedridden for long periods of time require caregivers to assist them with urination and defecation. Traditional nursing methods include manually placing waterproof pads and assisting and collecting in a bedpan. These methods often require difficult labor from nurses and increase the likelihood of patients suffering from bedsores and even ulcers. Instead, a different nursing method using disposable adult diapers has been adopted for adult patients. These diapers are similar in shape and function to regular baby diapers but offer improved breathability and comfort. However, adult diapers require manual changing every time. As a result, costs are high, caregivers can be overworked when treating patients who are bedridden for long periods of time and unable to care for themselves, and hygiene cannot be guaranteed.

[0003] Recently, automatic flushing devices that can be worn by bedridden patients and automatically suck up waste (e.g., urine or feces) to rinse the patient's body orifices have been available on the market. However, the automatic flushing devices or machines currently available on the market do not provide patients with a comfortable wearing experience. For example, a wearable part worn on a patient's body is provided with a connector having a rigid structure positioned where the patient's waste should be collected, and the connector is intended to connect to a suction / drying pipeline joint assembly of the automatic flushing device. Such a connector having a rigid structure limits the ability of a caregiver to place the wearable part on the patient's body. As a result, the wearable part does not fit well on the patient's body because it restricts movement. In other words, in order to put the wearable part on the patient, the caregiver must exert more effort than moving the body or the patient's limbs. In addition, because the connector has a rigid structure, it is not possible to ensure that the wearable part fits tightly to the patient's body every time, which may result in a risk of leakage. Also, the rigid structural connector of the wearable part is made of a rigid material and is therefore not elastic, which causes discomfort and makes it unsuitable for use when the patient is bedridden for long periods of time or is otherwise assisted by a caregiver (e.g., undergoing rehabilitation or moving around in a wheelchair).

[0004] Furthermore, various automatic flushing devices or machines on the market provide post-excretion care for patients by using functions such as suction, flushing, and drying. However, in current wearable parts worn by patients, a completely waterproof surface is used in the excretion area of ​​the wearable part (e.g., from the buttocks to the crotch area) to avoid as much leakage as possible during flushing or to avoid moisture retention in the area that comes into contact with the patient's skin after using the wearable part. However, such surfaces made entirely of waterproof materials are non-breathable and uncomfortable. As a result, patients often experience dampness and poor ventilation on their skin and even suffer from rashes when wearing the wearable part. If pants without a waterproof surface are worn, the wearable part will likely become wet when flushing occurs. In other words, when the automatic flushing device or machine rinses the patient's body, the wearable part absorbs water and becomes wet. Although a drying procedure can be subsequently performed on the wearable part, it is impossible to completely prevent infiltration into the wearable part. As a result, the patient experiences discomfort due to the dampness in the wearable part.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to overcome the drawbacks of the above related art by providing a wearable part and a wearable flushing device that are simple in structure, convenient and efficient in operation, and provide hygiene and comfort when worn. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The object of the present application is to provide a wearable flushing device characterized by simple structure, convenience, labor-saving function, hygienic operation, and intelligent functionality.

[0007] Another object of the present application is to provide a wearable part that can prevent water from remaining therein and remain dry after the wearable flushing device has rinsed and dried the patient, so as to provide a comfortable wearing experience. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present application provides a diaper pad configured to cover the buttocks and crotch of a human body. The diaper pad includes a recessed area. The recessed area corresponds to an orifice of the human body. The recessed area has a discharge opening. The surface of the recessed area has a waterproof surface layer.

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present application further provides wearable pants for a wearable flushing device, the wearable pants including the above-mentioned diaper pad, a waist belt joined to an end region of the diaper pad, and an abdominal sheet joined to the other end region of the diaper pad opposite the end region, the diaper pad covering the buttocks and crotch of a human body, the abdominal sheet covering the abdominal part of the body, and the waist belt secured to the abdominal sheet in a covering manner, such that the diaper pad fits snugly over and covers the buttocks and crotch of the body when the wearable pants are worn.

[0010] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present application further provides a wearable part for a wearable flushing device. The wearable part includes the above-mentioned wearable pants and a sliding receiver. The sliding receiver is coupled to a back surface of a diaper pad of the wearable pants opposite to the surface covering the human body. The sliding receiver has a first opening shaped to match the discharge opening of the diaper pad.

[0011] To achieve the aforementioned object, the present application further provides a wearable flushing device including the above-mentioned wearable portion, a receptacle portion removably coupled to the wearable portion, and a control assembly connected to the receptacle portion for automatic flushing, wherein the sliding receiver of the wearable portion is provided with a receiving slot, and the receptacle portion is adapted to removably engage with the receiving slot of the sliding receiver of the wearable portion.

[0012] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present application provides a method for manufacturing a diaper pad, the method including the steps of: Step 1: providing a first foam and attaching a first surface fabric to a first surface of the first foam; Step 2: providing a second foam and attaching a second surface fabric to a second surface of the second foam; Step 3: cutting the first foam with the attached first surface fabric and the second foam with the attached second surface fabric to form a first molded foam and a second molded foam, respectively, where the first molded foam and the second molded foam are shaped into a diaper pad; Step 4: coating a predetermined area of ​​the first surface fabric of the first molded foam with a waterproof surface layer material; and Step 5: applying a bonding adhesive to a third surface of the first molded foam opposite the first surface with the first surface fabric. and / or applying a bonding adhesive to a fourth surface of the second molded foam opposite to the second surface provided with the second surface fabric; step 6: attaching the third surface of the first molded foam to the fourth surface of the second molded foam, and performing hot-press forming on the attached first and second molded foams in a die to form a main body of a diaper pad, wherein a predetermined area of ​​the first surface fabric covered with the waterproof surface layer forms a recessed area covered with the waterproof surface layer, the recessed area corresponding to an orifice of the human body; and step 7: removing excess material on the outer periphery of the main body of the diaper pad by a cutting method, and removing excess material in the shape of a predetermined discharge opening in the recessed area on the main body of the diaper pad by a piercing method to obtain a diaper pad.

[0013] The wearable portion of the wearable flushing device of the present invention is provided with a fastening / embedding member, allowing the receptacle portion to releasably engage with the wearable portion. To operate the wearable flushing device, a caregiver first places the wearable portion on the patient and then inserts or embeds the receptacle portion into the wearable portion to connect the receptacle portion to the wearable portion. The patient's orifice, the diaper pad of the wearable portion, and the receptacle portion can then be automatically flushed and dried through the control assembly. This eliminates the need for caregivers to manually clean the patient's body, ensuring greater cleanliness and hygiene. The special design of the diaper pad and the intelligent control of the wearable flushing device during automatic flushing improve patient comfort. After use, it is only necessary to remove the receptacle portion, eliminating the need to repeatedly put on and take off the wearable portion. Additionally, the structural design of the diaper pad's partially waterproof surface layer prevents patients from experiencing discomfort when wearing the wearable portion for long periods of time.

[0014] Additionally, the structure of the wearable portion herein allows an additional small disposable diaper to be further coupled to the wearable portion, allowing the small disposable diaper to temporarily absorb exudates when the caregiver is away from the patient. The additional small disposable diaper coupled to the wearable portion also allows the patient to perform other activities with the caregiver's help (e.g., doing rehabilitation or going out to sunbathe in a wheelchair).

[0015] The following detailed description is made with reference to the accompanying drawings so that the present application and its various advantages can be easily reached and therefore better understood. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0017] With reference to the accompanying drawings, the technical contents, structural features and effects of the present application are described in detail below.

[0018] The wearable flushing device of the present application is particularly suitable for use by adult patients. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the relationship between parts of a wearable flushing device 10 according to one embodiment of the present application. The wearable flushing device 10 includes a wearable portion 11, a receptacle portion 12 removably engaged with the wearable portion 11, and a control assembly 13 connected to both the receptacle portion 12 and a treatment host. In operation, the wearable portion 11 is first worn by the patient and then engaged with the receptacle portion 12. The patient and the receptacle portion 12 are automatically rinsed by the control assembly 13 without any manual intervention. After flushing, it is only necessary to remove the receptacle portion 12, eliminating the need to repeatedly put on and take off the wearable portion 11, making the caregiver's work and nursing more convenient.

[0019] Figure 2A is a structural front view of wearable portion 11. Figure 2B is a structural back view of wearable portion 11. With reference to Figures 2A and 2B, it can be seen that wearable portion 11 includes wearable pants 112 and a sliding receptacle 114. Specifically, wearable portion 11 can be worn to cover the human body like a diaper.

[0020] The wearable pants 112 include a diaper pad 1121, a waist belt 1122, and an abdominal sheet 1123. Specifically, the diaper pad 1121 includes a buttocks pad region A and a crotch pad region B extending from and integrated with the buttocks pad region. As shown in FIG. 2A , the front side of the diaper pad 1121 is configured to directly contact the skin, and therefore the material from which the front side is made should be soft, elastic, comfortable, breathable, antibacterial, etc., and should easily bend to fit snugly against the skin. Therefore, the diaper pad 1121 is preferably made of a soft, elastic material, including, for example, cloth, sponge, and porous, plastic, breathable material. In this way, the buttocks pad region A and the crotch pad region B of the diaper pad 1121 can bend to snugly cover the buttocks and crotch of the human body.

[0021] 2B , the waist belt 1122 is joined to an end region of the underside of the diaper pad 1121 that corresponds to the buttocks pad region A and is away from the crotch pad region B, and the abdominal sheet 1123 is joined to the other end region of the underside of the diaper pad 1121 that corresponds to the crotch pad region B and is away from the buttocks pad region A. The waist belt 1122, the diaper pad 1121, and the abdominal sheet 1123 together form wearable pants 112 that can be worn by a human body. The sliding receptacle 114 is connected to the underside of the diaper pad 1121. In this manner, the wearable pants 112 and the sliding receptacle 114 form the wearable portion 11 that can be worn by a patient and used with the wearable flushing device 10. When the patient wears the wearable portion 11, the diaper pad 1121 covers the buttocks and crotch, the abdominal sheet 1123 covers the abdomen, and the waist belt 1122 is fastened to the abdominal sheet 1123 in a covering manner so that when the patient wears the wearable pants 112, the diaper pad 1121 fits snugly over and covers the buttocks and crotch. The covering and joining fastening manner for the above sheets can usually be achieved through direct contact and joining by hook and loop fasteners or special fabrics with hook and loop properties.

[0022] It should be understood that the wearable pants 112 shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B are merely one embodiment of the present application. The wearable pants 112 may have a similar design with different covering modes. FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of wearable pants that come into direct contact with the human body. It can be seen from FIG. 3 that the wearable pants 112' also have the same diaper pad 1121 as shown in FIG. 2B. The periphery of the diaper pad 1121 is connected, glued, or pressed to the periphery of the back surface of the diaper pad 1121 through an elastic sheet 1124 to join the diaper pad 1121 to the elastic sheet 1124. The upper and lower ends of the elastic sheet 1124 are further connected to an upper buttocks sheet 1126 and an abdominal sheet 1127, respectively. Two side edges of the upper buttocks sheet 1126 and two side edges of the abdominal sheet 1127 are respectively connected to a plurality of elastic connecting sheets 1125 to form another type of wearable pants 112' structure of the diaper pad 1121 shown in FIG. 3. The fabric of the entire surface layer of the wearable pants is preferably a highly skin-friendly, antibacterial, antiallergic, ozone-resistant, and breathable material. The entire outer edge of the wearable pants is provided with elastic straps for adjustment to patients with different body shapes. When the wearable pants are worn on a patient, the front of the diaper pad 1121 is also bent and adjusted so that the buttocks pad region A and crotch pad region B of the diaper pad 1121 can bend to cover the patient's buttocks and crotch. In this case, the upper buttocks sheet 1126 is placed on the patient's upper buttocks. The abdominal sheet 1127 is then folded over to cover the patient's abdomen. The connecting sheet 1125, which is disposed on the waist, is then stretched to be joined in a covering manner to the elastic connecting sheet 1125 or the abdominal sheet 1127, which is disposed on the abdomen. In this way, the wearable pants 112' are adjusted to be fastened to the patient's body. The covering and joining fastening manner for the above sheets and connecting sheet can usually be achieved by hook and loop fasteners, or can be achieved through direct contact and joining by special fabrics with hook and loop properties.

[0023] According to the embodiment of the wearable pants shown in Figures 2A and 3, it can be seen that the present application does not specifically limit the type of fastening member for fastening the diaper pad to the buttocks and crotch of a patient. The fastening member only needs to be configured to be connected to the diaper pad 1121 and to secure the diaper pad 1121 so as to fit snugly over and cover the buttocks and crotch of a human body when the diaper pad 1121 covers the buttocks and crotch of the human body. According to the structure disclosed in the embodiment shown in Figures 2A and 2B, the fastening member may include a waist belt 1122 connected to the buttocks pad region of the diaper pad 1121 and an abdominal sheet 1123 connected to the crotch pad region of the diaper pad 1121. In the embodiment shown in Figure 3, the fixing member may include an elastic sheet 1124 connected to the periphery of the back surface of the diaper pad 1121, an upper buttocks sheet 1126 and an abdominal sheet 1127 connected to the upper and lower ends of the elastic sheet 1124, respectively, and a plurality of elastic connecting sheets 1125 connected to the two side edges of the upper buttocks sheet 1126 and the two side edges of the abdominal sheet 1127, respectively.

[0024] Fig. 4A is a structural front view of a diaper pad 1121 according to the present application. Fig. 4B is a structural back view of the diaper pad 1121. As shown in Fig. 4A, the front of the diaper pad 1121 may include a recessed area C having a waterproof surface layer thereon and a raised portion D surrounding the recessed area C. The recessed area C corresponds to an orifice of the human body. The recessed area C has an opening C' formed in the recessed area C. Thus, the opening C' corresponds to an orifice of the body.

[0025] More specifically, the depression region C of the diaper pad 1121 shown in FIG. 4A can include a first depression region C1 substantially disposed in the buttocks pad region A and a second depression region C2 substantially disposed in the crotch pad region B. The second depression region C2 extends from the position of the first depression region C1 adjacent to the crotch pad region B in the longitudinal direction of the crotch pad region B. Referring to FIG. 4B , it can be seen that because the back surface of the diaper pad 1121 is shaped as a flat surface, the depression region C is formed by sinking downward from the inner peripheral side of the raised portion D of the diaper pad 1121. In other words, both the buttocks pad region A and the crotch pad region B of the diaper pad 1121 have the raised portion D in their respective portions adjacent to or surrounding the depression region C. The raised portion D is elastic so that when the buttocks pad area A and crotch pad area B of the diaper pad 1121 are adjusted and bent to cover the buttocks and crotch, the raised portion D can be deformed to fit snugly against the buttocks and crotch of the body.

[0026] Referring again to FIG. 4A , the recessed area C has an opening C' formed therein. The opening C' includes a discharge opening C11 and a flushing opening C21. The discharge opening C11 is formed in a first recessed area C1 of the recessed area C. The flushing opening C21 is formed in a second recessed area C2 of the recessed area C. In FIG. 4A , the first recessed area C1 corresponds to the position of the buttocks pad area A so that the discharge opening C11 corresponds to the opening (defined as the first opening) in the buttocks / anus of the human body. In addition, the second recessed area C2 corresponds to the position of the crotch pad area B, and the position of the flushing opening C21 is designed to correspond to the opening (defined as the second opening) in the crotch / urinary area of ​​the human body.

[0027] It should be noted that in the structure of the diaper pad 1121 shown in FIG. 4A , the peripheral inner wall of the recessed area C extends obliquely downward from the raised portion D to the bottom surface of the recessed area C. The surface of the recessed area C (i.e., the area surrounded by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 4A ) has a waterproof surface layer, except for the opening C′. In other words, both the peripheral inner wall of the first recessed area C1 and the peripheral inner wall of the second recessed area C2 of the recessed area C adjacent to the raised portion D present an inclination angle, and the surfaces of both the first recessed area C1 and the second recessed area C2 have a waterproof surface layer, except for the discharge opening C11 and the flush opening C21.

[0028] In another embodiment, the area of ​​the diaper pad 1121 covered by the waterproof surface layer may slightly expand outward from the depression area C surrounded by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 4A toward the raised portion D (e.g., the area surrounded by the one-dot chain line in FIG. 4A ) so as to enlarge the area of ​​the diaper pad 1121 covered by the waterproof surface layer. In other words, the surface of a partial area of ​​the raised portion D of the diaper pad 1121 adjacent to and surrounding the depression area C also has a waterproof surface layer. The waterproof surface layer can be pressed onto a predetermined area of ​​the diaper pad 1121 through, for example, a hot press. The waterproof surface layer can be made of, for example, silica gel, a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), or a thermoplastic urethane (TPU).

[0029] Referring to the back surface structure of the wearable portion 11 shown in FIG. 2B , the back surface of the diaper pad 1121 of wearable pants 112 for covering a human body, opposite to the front surface thereof, is coupled to a slide receptacle 114 to form the wearable portion 11. In this embodiment, the back surface of the diaper pad 1121 may be flat and coupled to the slide receptacle 114, for example, by adhesive bonding or hot pressing. It should be understood that the diaper pad 1121 can be bent and adjusted to cover the buttocks and crotch of the body, and therefore the slide receptacle 114 is also made of a flexible material. In this way, when the diaper pad 1121 is bent and adjusted to fit the shape of the body, the slide receptacle 114 can be deformed accordingly. The slide receptacle 114 can be made of a flexible, deformable material, for example, silica gel or a thermoplastic material, or can be obtained by using a deformable material through three-dimensional (3D) printing.

[0030] 2B , a receiving slot 1141 extending from the wide front end to the other narrow end of the sliding receiver 114 is formed on the bottom side of the sliding receiver 114. A first opening 1142 and a second opening 1143 are formed in the receiving slot 1141. The shape of the first opening 1142 matches the shape of the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121 of the wearable pants 112. The position of the second opening 1143 corresponds to the position of the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad 1121. Therefore, when the sliding receiver 114 is coupled to the back surface of the diaper pad 1121, the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114 is aligned with and coincides with the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121, and the second opening 1143 is positioned within the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad 1121. In addition, the receiving slot 1141 of the sliding receiver 114 has an embedding member 1144. The embedding member 1144 is configured to insert or embed the receptacle portion 12 into the receiving slot 1141 of the wearable portion so as to couple the receptacle portion 12 with the wearable portion 11. In addition, the embedding member 1144 is also configured to embed and position an additional small disposable diaper 100 in the receiving slot 1141 so that the small diaper 100 can cover the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114 and the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121, or preferably simultaneously cover the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114, the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad corresponding to the first opening 1142, the second opening 1143, and the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad corresponding to the second opening 1143.

[0031] 2B includes a first embedding opening E1 formed on the front side of the receiving slot 1141 and a second embedding opening E2 formed at the end of the receiving slot 1141, such that an additional small diaper 100 can be placed in the receiving slot 1141 through the two embedding openings. FIGS. 5A and 5B show a state in which the wearable portion 11 is worn on a human body and an additional small disposable diaper 100 is placed in the receiving slot 1141 of the sliding receiver 114. It can be seen from FIGS. 5A and 5B that the additional small disposable diaper 100 is inserted through the first embedding opening E1 and the second embedding opening E2 so that the additional small disposable diaper 100 is positioned and placed in the receiving slot 1141 and unfolded so that the unfolded portion is placed in the receiving slot 1141. The unfolded portion of the additional small disposable diaper 100 covers the first opening 1142 of the sliding receptacle 114, the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad corresponding to the first opening 1142, the second opening 1143, and the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad corresponding to the second opening 1143. In this way, when the caregiver leaves for a while, the patient's excrement can be temporarily absorbed or contained by the additional small diaper. Also, if the patient needs to perform a short activity (e.g., going out for rehabilitation or wheelchair activities), the caregiver can help the patient perform the activity by using the wearable portion 11 in combination with the additional small disposable diaper 100.

[0032] 6 and 7 show how the wearable portion 11 and the receptacle portion 12 of the wearable flushing device according to the present application are coupled together. FIG. 8 is an exploded view of the sliding receptacle 114 and the receptacle portion 12 of the wearable flushing device according to the present application. For simplicity and ease of understanding, the wearable pants having a diaper pad and coupled to the sliding receptacle 114 are omitted from FIG. 8. Referring to FIGS. 6 to 8, it can be seen that the wearable portion 11 includes wearable pants 112 that are coupled to the sliding receptacle 114 and worn directly on the body, and that the sliding receptacle 114 is coupled to the diaper pad 1121 of the wearable pants 112. The sliding receptacle 114 is configured to be connected to the receptacle portion 12 of the wearable flushing device 10. To easily remove the receptacle portion 12, a receiving slot 1141 (see FIG. 2B ) is formed on the bottom side of the sliding receptacle 114 of the wearable portion 11 so that the receptacle portion 12 can be removably inserted / embedded into the receiving slot 1141 of the sliding receptacle 114 of the wearable portion 11. With further reference to FIGS. 6 through 8 , it can be clearly seen that the sliding receptacle 114 is shaped and sized to match the configuration of the receptacle portion 12 such that the receptacle portion 12 can be inserted / embedded from the front end 12′ of the receptacle portion 12 into the receiving slot 1141 on the bottom side of the sliding receptacle 114 until the opening of the receptacle body 1211 of the receptacle portion 12 aligns with the first opening 1142 of the sliding receptacle 114 to removably couple the receptacle portion 12 with the wearable portion 11.

[0033] Referring again to FIG. 8 , the receptacle portion 12 in the present application includes an upper housing 121 having a receptacle body 1211, a bottom housing 122, and a rear housing 123. Both the bottom housing 122 and the rear housing 123 are connected to the upper housing 121. The upper housing 121 and the bottom housing 122 are assembled and fixed to each other through screws. A receiving space is formed between them to accommodate and mount a gravity sensor 132 and other components. The rear housing 123 is mounted behind the upper housing 121. Devices and pipelines for connecting to an external processing host are accommodated and mounted inside the rear housing.

[0034] Specifically, the sliding receiver 114 is provided with an embedding member 1144 for attaching and detaching the receptacle body 1211 of the upper housing 121. In one embodiment of the present application, the front end of the structure formed after the upper housing 121 having the receptacle body 1211 is coupled with the bottom housing 122 is inserted or embedded into a first embedding opening E1 of the embedding member 1144 formed on the bottom side of the sliding receiver 114 from the front end of the receptacle body 1211, and thus enters the receiving slot 1144. The top end formed after the upper housing 121 and the rear housing 123 are coupled can be embedded into a second embedding opening E2 of the embedding member 1144 formed at the end of the sliding receiver 114, thereby fixing the receptacle portion in the receiving slot 1144 of the sliding receiver 114. Each of the first embedding opening E1 and the second embedding opening E2 of the sliding receiver 114 can be formed by the space between the sliding receiver 114 and a flexible strip body, both ends of which are fixed to the periphery of the sliding receiver 114. The flexible strip body is stretchable so that the receptacle portion 12 can be easily inserted / embedded into the sliding receiver 114 of the wearable portion 11 (see FIGS. 6 and 7 ). Such a structure has the advantage that the caregiver only needs to move the lightweight receptacle portion 12 close to the patient wearing the wearable portion 11, and then move the receptacle portion 12 so that it is accurately coupled with the sliding receiver 114 of the wearable portion 11 worn by the patient. Unlike products currently available on the market, the caregiver does not need to move the patient's body hard to accurately connect the wearable portion worn by the patient to the receptacle portion or the suction member.

[0035] Additionally, the sliding receiver 114 of the wearable portion 11 may further include a first connecting portion 114a, and the upper housing 121 of the receptacle portion 12 may further include a second connecting portion 121a corresponding to the first connecting portion 114a. In one embodiment, the first connecting portion 114a and the second connecting portion 121a may be coupled together in a detachable joining or fastening manner, for example, through a hook-and-loop fastener or a buckle member. For example, the first connecting portion 114a may have a tab structure with a hole, and the second connecting portion 121a may have a protruding structure such that the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are detachably fastened to each other. In another example, the first connecting portion 114a and the second connecting portion 121a may have a hook-and-loop fastener structure such that the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are detachably fastened to each other. By using the above-mentioned insert / embedding member and the manner of coupling the first connecting portion 114a of the sliding receiver 114 and the second connecting portion 121a of the upper housing 121, the sliding receiver 114 and the receptacle body 1211 can be easily and stably assembled and easily and quickly disassembled.

[0036] In the present application, the control assembly 13 includes connection elements configured to connect to the receptacle portion 12 and the treatment host, and detection elements for performing several specific functions, and may further include a control element (not shown) for controlling all elements. Preferably, the connection elements include an air channel and a water channel. The air channel is connected to the external treatment host and configured to supply air to the receptacle body 1211 under positive pressure or to suck waste on the receptacle body 1211 under negative pressure. The water channel can cooperate with the air channel to rinse the patient's pores and clean the receptacle body 1211. In this embodiment of the present application, the air channel is divided into an air supply channel 132a and a suction channel 132b (the illustration shows only a portion of the air channel joint or pipeline), and wastewater is sucked into the external treatment host through the suction channel 132b. In the present application, the water channels include a first flushing channel 134a configured to rinse the anus (i.e., the first orifice), a second flushing channel 134b configured to rinse the urethra (i.e., the second orifice of the human body), and a third flushing channel 134c configured to cleanse the receptacle body 1211 (the figure shows only a portion of the joints or pipelines of the channels). The first flushing channel 134a and the second flushing channel 134b are disposed in a receiving space between the upper housing 121 and the rear housing 123, and their outlets are disposed and positioned sequentially along the vertical direction on the upper housing 121 to correspond to the positions of the orifices of the body. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, the outlet of the first flushing channel 134a is disposed in a first through-hole 121b formed in a recess of the upper housing 121. The second flushing water channel 134b is disposed in a second through-hole 121c in another recess formed in the upper housing 121. The third flushing water channel 134c can be disposed in the receiving space between the upper housing 121 and the bottom housing 122 to optimize the spatial layout. The outlets of the first flushing water channel 134a, the second flushing water channel 134b, and the third flushing water channel 134c can protrude from the receptacle body 1121 so that the flushing water jets can be smoothly ejected without being obstructed by the structure of the upper housing 121.

[0037] Preferably, in this application, a detection element is further disposed to improve the intelligent functionality of the product. As shown in FIG. 8 , the detection element includes a camera assembly 131 mounted in the opening 121d of the upper housing 121 and protruding from the receptacle body 1211 to target and identify excrement in the receptacle body 1211. Different modes for controlling the water passage and the air passage can be adopted based on different types of excrement identified. In addition, the detection element further includes a gravity sensor 132 mounted in the receiving space formed between the upper housing 121 and the bottom housing 122 to detect whether the wearer's body is rotating or standing up. It should be noted that the mounting position of the detection element is merely one preferred embodiment and does not constitute a limitation.

[0038] In this embodiment of the present application, the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121 of the wearable portion 11 coincides with the first opening 1142 of the sliding receptacle 114, and the receptacle portion 12 is coupled to the wearable portion 11 through the sliding receptacle 114. Therefore, the opening of the receptacle body 1211 for receiving bodily waste coincides with the first opening 1142 of the sliding receptacle 114. Therefore, a water jet spurts from the outlet of the first flushing water channel 134a, which is disposed in the first through-hole 121b of the upper housing 121 of the receptacle portion 12, through the first opening 1142 of the sliding receptacle 114 and the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121, thereby rinsing the first orifice of the patient. It should be noted that a small opening C111 extends from the contour of the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121 toward the crotch pad region B and coincides with the position of a small opening 1142' extending from the contour of the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114 (see FIGS. 2B and 4A). Thus, the positions of the small opening C111 of the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121 and the small opening 1142' of the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114 correspond to the outlet of the first flushing channel 134a disposed in the first through-hole 121b of the upper housing 121 of the receptacle portion 12 (see FIGS. 2B, 4A, and 8). The first flushing water channel 134a can rinse the first orifice of the human body, and the wastewater generated after flushing can flow into the receptacle body 1211 through the discharge opening C11 in the recess area C of the diaper pad 1121 and the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114.

[0039] In addition, the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad 1121 of the wearable portion 11 is arranged in the area of ​​the second opening 1143 of the sliding receptacle 114, and the receptacle portion 12 is coupled to the wearable portion 11 through the sliding receptacle 114 so that a jet of water can be ejected from the outlet of the second flushing water channel 134b arranged in the second through-hole 121c of the upper housing 121 of the receptacle portion 12 through the second opening 1143 of the sliding receptacle 114 and the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad 1121, thereby rinsing the second orifice of the patient. It should be noted that the flushing opening 1143 of the sliding receptacle 114 can be disposed in a groove of the sliding receptacle 114, and the contour of the groove corresponds to both the contour of the flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad 1121 and the contour of the through-hole 121C in the recess of the upper housing 121 of the receptacle portion 12 (see FIGS. 2B, 4A, and 8). Thus, the second flushing water channel 134b can rinse the second orifice of the human body, and wastewater generated after flushing can flow into the receptacle body 1211 through the discharge opening C11 of the recess region C of the diaper pad 1121 and the first opening 1142 of the sliding receptacle 114.

[0040] Furthermore, the peripheral inner wall of the depression region C (including the first depression region C1 and the second depression region C2) of the diaper pad 1121 can extend obliquely downward from the raised portion D to the bottom surface of the depression region C. Therefore, the flushing wastewater generated after rinsing the first hole and / or the second hole of the human body can smoothly flow along the oblique peripheral inner wall of the depression region C through the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121, and then through the discharge opening C11 of the diaper pad 1121 and the first opening 1142 of the sliding receiver 114 into the receptacle body 1211. This can prevent the undesirable situation of wastewater remaining in the diaper pad 1121 after flushing.

[0041] Additionally, in the present application, when the wearable portion 11 is worn on a patient's body, the raised portion D of the diaper pad 1121 allows the buttocks pad region A and the crotch pad region B of the diaper pad 1121 to completely cover and fit the patient's buttocks and crotch with the soft, elastic material of the diaper pad 1121. Therefore, the boundary of the waterproof surface layer of the depression region C of the diaper pad 1121 (i.e., the region surrounded by the two-dot chain line or the region surrounded by the one-dot chain line in FIG. 4A ) also fits the patient's skin. With this configuration, the patient's excrement or generated wastewater can be blocked by the waterproof surface layer of the diaper pad 1121 after the water sprays from the first flushing water channel 134a to rinse the patient's first orifice and / or sprays from the second flushing water channel 134b to rinse the patient's second orifice, thereby preventing the excrement / wastewater from leaking into the diaper pad 1121. In addition, with the configuration of the first depression area C1 of the depression area C, after excretion by the patient, the wearable portion 11 of the wearable flushing device 10 is cleaned and dried so that the surface of the diaper pad 1121 in contact with the patient's skin remains dry without the presence of water or moisture. Because the main body of the diaper pad 1121 is made of a soft, elastic, and breathable material and only the depression area C has a waterproof layer, when the wearable portion 11 is worn on the body, the patient does not experience humidity and poor ventilation in the buttocks and crotch area covered by the diaper pad. The patient can wear the wearable portion for a long time without discomfort.

[0042] 9 shows an exemplary method for manufacturing a diaper pad according to the present application. As shown in FIG. 9, a diaper pad can be manufactured according to the following steps.

[0043] Step F1: A first foam body is provided, and a first surface fabric is attached to a first surface of the first foam body. The first foam body can be made of, for example, a high-density foam. The first surface fabric can be, for example, an elastic fiber fabric.

[0044] Step F2: A second foam is provided, and a second surface fabric is attached to a second surface of the second foam. The second foam can be made of, for example, a high-density foam. The second surface fabric can be, for example, an elastic fiber fabric.

[0045] Step F3: The first foam body with the first surface fabric attached and the second foam body with the second surface fabric attached are cut into a first shaped foam body and a second shaped foam body, respectively, that can be molded into the shape of a diaper pad.

[0046] Step F4: Coating a predetermined area of ​​the first surface fabric of the first molded foam with a waterproof surface layer material.

[0047] Step F5: Applying a bonding adhesive to a third surface of the first molded foam opposite the first surface with the first surface texture and / or a fourth surface of the second molded foam opposite the second surface with the second surface texture.

[0048] Step F6: The third surface of the first molded foam and the fourth surface of the second molded foam are aligned and attached to each other, and the attached first and second molded foams are hot-pressed in a die to form the main body of the diaper pad. A predetermined area of ​​the first surface fabric covered with the waterproof surface layer has a recessed area with the waterproof surface layer corresponding to the orifice of the human body.

[0049] Step F7: Remove excess material on the outer periphery of the main body of the diaper pad by cutting, and remove material in the shape of a predetermined discharge opening in the recessed region on the main body of the diaper pad by piercing to obtain a diaper pad.

[0050] The steps for manufacturing the diaper pad in Figure 9 described above are merely one exemplary embodiment. The above steps do not constitute any limitation. Instead, the above steps can be adjusted to different manufacturing steps without affecting the formation and manufacturing of the diaper pad.

[0051] In summary, the wearable flushing device 10 of the present application has the following excellent technical effects.

[0052] 1. The sliding receptacle 114 of the wearable portion 11 of the wearable flushing device 10 of the present application is provided with an embedded member so that the receptacle portion 12 can be removably coupled to the wearable portion 11. During operation, a caregiver places the wearable portion 11 on a patient and then couples the receptacle portion 12 to the wearable portion 11. The patient's body and the receptacle portion 12 can be automatically washed through the control assembly 13 without manual operation. This ensures greater cleanliness and hygiene, and in combination with intelligent automatic control of automatic flushing, further improves patient comfort. In addition, after washing and drying, only the receptacle portion 12 needs to be removed, eliminating the need to repeatedly put on and take off the wearable portion 11. This reduces the workload and effort required when caring for a patient, further reducing the mental fatigue of caregivers or long-term caregivers, and increasing the caregiver-to-patient ratio.

[0053] 2. In the present application, the diaper pad 1121 of the wearable portion 11 has the properties of being soft, elastic, comfortable, breathable, antibacterial, and easily deformable / flexible to fit snugly against the skin of the human body. In addition, the sliding receptacle 114 of the wearable portion 11 for coupling with the diaper pad 1121 is also made of a flexible, deformable material. Therefore, when the wearable portion 11 is to be worn by a patient, the caregiver can easily place the wearable portion on the patient's body by slightly moving the patient's body, thus greatly reducing the caregiver's physical activity. In addition, the elastic material of the diaper pad 1121, which allows the diaper pad to fit snugly against the skin of the body, and the waterproof surface layer on the recessed region C of the diaper pad 1121, can effectively prevent infiltration or contamination of the diaper pad 1121. Therefore, bedridden patients are less willing to wear the wearable portion for long periods of time. When excretion is required, the caregiver can perform such nursing and cleaning tasks by simply moving the receptacle portion 12 and easily couple it with the wearable portion 11. The caregiver does not need to move the patient's body to accommodate the step of coupling the receptacle portion 12 with the wearable pants, which relieves some of the burden of caring for a long-term bedridden patient.

[0054] 3. According to the configuration of the wearable portion 11 of the present application, a small disposable diaper can be embedded in the receiving slot 1141 of the sliding receiver 114 so as to cover the first opening 1142 and the second opening 1143 of the wearable portion 11 and the corresponding discharge opening C11 and flushing opening C21 of the diaper pad 1121. Therefore, when the caregiver is away for a while or when the patient needs to perform a short-term activity (e.g., rehabilitation or going out for an activity in a wheelchair), the patient's excrement can be temporarily absorbed or contained by the small disposable diaper. By using the wearable portion 11 in combination with the small disposable diaper, the caregiver can help the patient perform such an activity.

[0055] 4. According to the configuration of the diaper pad 1121 of the present application, the diaper pad has a recessed region C with a waterproof surface layer. The peripheral edge of the waterproof surface layer also fits against the patient's skin to contain excrement or flushing wastewater while preventing the excrement / wastewater from leaking into other parts of the diaper pad 1121. In addition, the configuration of the first recessed region C1 of the recessed region C prevents water or moisture from remaining in the diaper pad 1121 in contact with the patient's skin when the wearable portion 11 of the wearable flushing device 10 worn on the patient's body is washed and dried. Because the main body of the diaper pad 1121 is made of a soft, elastic, and breathable material and only the recessed region C has a waterproof layer, the patient does not experience humidity and poor ventilation in the buttocks and crotch areas covered by the diaper pad, and therefore is willing to wear or use the wearable portion for a long period of time.

[0056] The above description merely discloses preferred embodiments of the present application, and is of course not intended to limit the scope of the present application, and therefore, equivalent variations made thereto still fall within its scope. [Explanation of symbols]
