Abstract

An appliance for the disposal of fluids has a fluid container 1 with an inlet opening and an outlet opening 11, 2. In order to facilitate the disposal of these fluids, the container consists of a self-supporting canister, which is portably supported on support wheels 9 and on whose outlet opening 2, arranged in the floor region, an outlet hose 3 is attached. This outlet hose 3 ends in an outlet tube 4, which is fastened to the canister so that it can be pivoted vertically and so that it can be closed by means of a closing cap 7. The closable inlet opening 11 and a compressed air connecting point 8 are arranged in the upper canister region. In order to empty the canister, it is moved to a disposal point and the outlet tube 4 is pivoted over the disposal point, a compressed air hose is connected to the compressed air connection point 8 and compressed air is introduced into the upper part of the canister. The introduction of the air pushes the fluid out of the canister via the outlet opening 2 and the outlet tube 4. The compressed air hose is subsequently removed, the outlet tube 4 is pivoted back to the canister and is closed with the closing cap 7.

 EMI1.1 
 ein selbsttragender, auf   Stützrädern   fahrbar abgestützer Kanister vorgesehen ist. Bekannte Einrichtungen bestehen darin, dass das verbrauchte Dialysat in ca. 15 Liter fassenden Kunststoffsäcken aufgefangen wird, die nach der Behandlung zu einer Entsorgungsstelle (WC,   Badewanne,...)   gebracht, dort entleert, und anschliessend entsorgt werden müssen. Weiters ist uns das EP 112104A2 eine Einrichtung zur   Pentoneal-   dialyse bekannt geworden, die das Auffangen und zur Entsorgungsstelle Transportieren des Dialysates mit einer mit kleinen Rädern ausgestatteten Wanne durchführt. 



  Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, das Entsorgen von Dialysaten zu erleichtern, insbesondere das Tragen der 15 Kilo schweren Kunststoffsäcke und die Verwendung von Einmalmaterialien (Insbesondere PVC) zu vermeiden.

 EMI1.1
 a self-supporting canister is provided which is supported on support wheels. Known facilities consist in collecting the used dialysate in approx. 15 liter plastic bags, which after the treatment are brought to a disposal point (toilet, bath tub, ...), emptied there and then have to be disposed of. Furthermore, we have become aware of EP 112104A2, a device for pentoneal dialysis, which carries out the collection and transport of the dialysate to the disposal site using a tub equipped with small wheels.



  The invention is based on the object of facilitating the disposal of dialysates, in particular avoiding carrying the 15 kg plastic bags and using disposable materials (in particular PVC).

Claims

The invention achieves this object by attaching an outlet hose (3) to its outlet opening (2) in the bottom area, which ends in an outlet pipe (4), and by providing a compressed air connection point (8) in addition to the inlet opening (11) located in the upper canister area ) is provided, to which a pressure hose that can be pressurized with air can be connected if necessary. The canister is filled via the inlet opening (11), which is then closed with a sealing cap. The canister can be easily moved to a disposal point due to the existing support wheels (9) and the handle (10).

To empty the canister, the cap (7), which is attached to the canister with a chain or the like (claim 5), has to be removed from the outlet pipe, and the outlet pipe, which is vertically pivotably attached to the canister with clamps (claim 3), over one Disposal point (toilet, bathtub, ...) must be brought into the outlet position (13). EMI1.2 Horizontal section of the outlet pipe (5) is accessible (claim 4), and a compressed air hose can be connected to the check valve of the compressed air connection point (8).

By claims 4 and 5 ensures that as long as the outlet pipe with a cap EMI1.3 air is introduced into the upper part of the canister using a compressor. Due to the overpressure in the upper part of the canister, the liquid inside is pressed out of the canister via the outlet opening (2) in the lower part of the canister. After complete emptying, the compressed air hose is removed, the outlet pipe on the canister swung back (out of service), and closed again with the sealing cap (7).

The canister is intended for repeated use and, depending on the area of use, must be cleaned or disinfected accordingly.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing, FIG. 1 a device according to the invention in front view, FIG. 2 this device in side view, FIG. 3 in plan view.

The device consists of a container (1) which is designed as a self-supporting canister which is supported on mobile wheels (9). Fig. 1 shows the outlet opening (2) in the bottom region of the canister, to which an outlet hose (3) attaches, which merges into an outlet pipe (4). This outlet pipe (4) is attached to the canister with two clamps (6) so that it can be swiveled vertically (position 13). The outlet pipe (4) merges into a horizontal section (5), behind which is the compressed air connection point (8). At the end of the outlet pipe there is a cap (7) which is attached to the canister with a chain or the like in such a way that the outlet pipe (4) cannot be pivoted away from the canister in the closed state and the compressed air connection point (8) is not accessible.

Furthermore, the inlet opening (11) is shown, through which liquid is filled into the canister, the inlet opening (11) is provided with a closure cap.

Furthermore, a large cleaning opening (12) is shown, which ensures optimal cleaning of the canister.

In Fig. 1 the handle (10) is shown with which the canister can be held.

1. Device for the disposal of liquids, in particular for the disposal of dialysates, with a liquid container having an inlet and outlet opening, the container being a self-supporting canister which is supported on supporting wheels and is characterized in that in the bottom area an outlet hose (3) is attached, which ends in an outlet pipe (4), and that in addition to the inlet opening arranged in the upper canister area <Desc / Clms Page number 2> EMI2.1 bar can be connected.

2. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the compressed air connection point (8) with a Check valve is provided.

3. Device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the outlet pipe (4) by a Vertical axis (6) can be pivoted on the canister (1).

4. The device according to claim 3, characterized in that the outlet pipe (4) one in the amount of Compressed air connection point (8) forms horizontal section (5), which extends from a protruding outlet position (position 13) into a non-operating position covering the compressed air connection point (8) Canister (1) is pivotable (Fig. 3).

5. Device according to one of claims 1 to 4, characterized in that the outlet pipe (4) can be closed with a cap (7) which is attached to the canister (1) with a chain or the like.
