  The excrement disposal apparatus 14 includes a control unit 216 that controls the entire excrement disposal apparatus 14, and the control unit 216 controls the blower blower 205, the hot water heater 211, the water pump 215, the two-way valve 218, and the like. Is done.

  Next, operation | movement of the excrement disposal apparatus 14 is demonstrated, referring FIG.6 and FIG.7. The two-way valve 218 is closed in the initial state.

  This operation is roughly divided into three processes, a suction process, a cleaning process, and a draining process.

  First, the suction process is an operation of sucking excrement and the like from the diaper 12, and the control unit 216 opens the two-way valve 218 and operates the blower blower 205. As a result, the inside of the excretion tank 200 is sucked by the blower blower 205 and kept at a negative pressure, and the filth suction hose 16, the excretion tank 200, the diaper-side filth suction hose connection port 122 provided in the filth collection tray 120, While air flows toward the blower blower 205, air circulates in the diaper 12 from the discharge port of the blower blower 205 through the air pipe 143, the air pipe 145, the blower hose 18, and the cleaning port 134 a.

  At this time, when the control unit 216 operates the water pump 215, the cleaning water flows from the cleaning water tank 210 to the air pipe 145 through the water pipe 148, the water pipe 149, the branch pipe 170, and the two-way valve 218. This is because the pressure loss is low because the opening area of the cleaning port 134a is larger than the small holes provided in the cleaning ports 130a and 130b as described above. Then, in a state where the washing water and air are mixed in the air pipe 145, the water is fed to the diaper 12 through the blower hose 18 and is jetted from the washing port 134a to increase the fluidity of the filth. It is for sucking filth.

  More specifically, when the blower blower 205 is operated, the excretion tank 200 is maintained at a negative pressure, and only the air in the excretion tank 200 is guided to the air pipe 140 by the separator 202, and is converted into air by the deodorization / sterilizer 207. The contained odor is removed and sterilized, and flows into the suction port of the blower blower 205. Further, the air discharged from the discharge port of the blower blower 205 is odor and sterilized as described above, and is guided into the diaper 12 so that the inside of the diaper 12 is kept hygienic.

  Next, the cleaning process is an operation of cleaning each part of the user 3. First, the control unit 216 operates the blower blower 205. As a result, the inside of the excretion tank 200 is sucked by the blower blower 205 and kept at a negative pressure, and the filth suction hose 16, the excretion tank 200, the diaper-side filth suction hose connection port 122 provided in the filth collection tray 120, While air flows toward the blower blower 205, air circulates in the diaper 12 from the discharge port of the blower blower 205 through the air pipe 143, the air pipe 145, the blower hose 18, and the cleaning port 134 a.

  At this time, by operating the water pump 215, the cleaning water is sprayed from the cleaning water tank 210 through the water pipe 148, the water pipe 149, the branch pipe 170, and the cleaning water hose 17 from the cleaning ports 130a and 130b of the diaper 12. That is, in this cleaning process, in order to suck cleaning water from the diaper 12, air circulation similar to the air circulation in the above-described suction process is also performed.

  The draining process is an operation of draining the cleaning water accumulated in the cleaning water hose 17, and the control unit 216 opens the two-way valve 218 after the cleaning process is finished (that is, after the water pump 215 is stopped), and blows air. The blower 205 is operated. Thereby, a part of the air discharged from the blower blower 205 is guided to the washing water hose 17 through the branch pipe 144, the air pipe 150, the two-way valve 218, the air pipe 151, the branch pipe 170, and the water pipe 152. The washing water accumulated in the washing water hose 17 can be drained. Thereby, the low temperature water collected in the water pipe at the start of the next cleaning can be reduced, and the low temperature cleaning water ejected to the user 3 can be reduced.

  Moreover, the excrement disposal system 1 of this embodiment is a remote controller for an operator (user 3) etc. to operate by transmitting an instruction signal to the control unit 216 of the excrement disposal apparatus 14 by wire or wireless. 302 is provided. As shown in FIG. 8, the remote controller 302 includes a suction button 302a, a cleaning button 302b, and a stop button 302c. The suction button 302a is an operation button for instructing the start of the suction process, and the cleaning button 302b is an operation button for instructing the start of the cleaning process. The stop button 302c is an operation button for instructing to stop the suction process and the cleaning process. Thus, the operation by the remote controller 302 is made possible to make it easy for the operator to operate when the operator is the user 3 and is a bedridden person.

  Here, the excrement disposal apparatus 14 includes a sensor 220 (FIG. 7) that detects opening and closing of the lid 15b, and is connected to the control unit 216. The sensor 220 is, for example, a limit switch or the like, and is installed at a location where the lid 15b contacts the lid 15b when the lid 15b is closed in the housing 15.

  When the cover 15b is open as a result of detection by the sensor 220, the control unit 216 prohibits the operation of the excrement disposal main body 14a (operation prohibiting means). For example, when the lid 15b is opened during the operation of the excrement disposal main body 14a, the control unit 216 immediately stops the operation. Further, the control unit 216 ignores various operations of the remote controller 302 when the lid 15b is open. This ensures safety when the lid 15b is opened.

  Now, FIG. 9 is an opening showing a state in which the lid 15b is closed with the respective hoses 16, 17, 18 connected to the respective hose connection ports 21, 22, 23 (FIG. 2) of the excrement disposal main body 14a.

Here, the stopper 421 is provided corresponding to the hose 16, and the stopper 422 is provided corresponding to the hoses 17 and 18.

  These stoppers 421 and 422 move to a permitted position when the diaper 12 (FIG. 1) and the excrement disposal body 14a are connected to a hose, and move to a disallowed position when the diaper 12 and the excrement disposal body 14a are not connected. . That is, the stopper 421 moves to the permitted position when one end 16a of the filth suction hose 16 is connected to the filth suction hose connection port 21 (FIG. 2), and the one end 16a of the filth suction hose 16 is moved to the filth suction hose connection port 21. When it is removed from, it moves to the unauthorized position. Similarly, the stopper 422 moves to the permitted position when one end 17a, 18a of each hose 17, 18 is connected to each hose connection port 22, 23, and one end 17a, 18a of each hose 17, 18 is connected to each hose. When it is removed from the connection ports 22 and 23, it moves to a non-permitted position.

  Hereinafter, the configuration of the stopper 422 will be specifically described. 11 is a perspective view of the stopper 422, and FIG. 12 is an explanatory view when the hoses 17 and 18 are detached from the hose connection ports 22 and 23 as seen from the cross section in the direction of the arrow AA ′ in FIG. 10. FIG. 13 is an explanatory diagram when the hoses 17 and 18 are connected to the hose connection ports 22 and 23 as seen from the cross section in the direction of the arrow AA ′ in FIG. 10. Note that the stopper 421 has substantially the same configuration as the stopper 422, and a description thereof will be omitted.

  The stopper 422 is made of metal, and as shown in FIGS. 11 to 13, the one end 422 c is connected to the inner surface of the housing 15, and is connected to the other end of the plate spring 422 a, And a protruding portion 422b as a free end facing the opening 400 of the housing 15.

  When the hose ends 17 a and 18 a are not connected to the hose connection ports 22 and 23, the protruding portion 422 b extends from the vicinity of the hose connection ports 22 and 23 toward the outside of the housing 15, and the end of the lid 15 b through the opening 400. It protrudes to a non-permitted position that is caught by the part (see FIG. 12).

  That is, when the hoses 17 and 18 are detached from the excrement disposal main body 14a (FIG. 2), the protruding portion 422b of the stopper 422 has moved to the non-permitted position. And when the protrusion part 422b of the stopper 422 has moved to the non-permission position, the protrusion part 422b will be hooked on the edge part of the cover body 15b, and the cover body 15b will be in the state which floated without closing properly. As described above, when the lid 15b is open, the operation of the excrement disposal main body 14a is prohibited. Therefore, even if the remote controller 302 (FIG. 8) is operated, excrement is performed. The processing body 14a is held in a stopped state. Even when the hose 16 is disconnected, the stopper 421 operates in the same manner, and the excrement disposal main body 14a is held in a stopped state. Thereby, when the hose is detached from the excrement disposal main body 14a, since the operation of the excrement disposal main body 14a is held in a stopped state, the filth is ejected from the filth suction hose 16 to the outside. While being able to prevent, it can prevent that wash water spouts from the hose connection ports 22 and 23 outside.

  Further, when the hose of the diaper 12 and the excrement disposal main body 14a is connected, the protruding portion 422b of the stopper 422 is pushed away by the locking member 402 of the hoses 17 and 18, and the stoppers 421 and 422 are moved to the permitted position (FIG. 13). reference). That is, when the hose ends 17a and 18a are connected to the hose connection ports 22 and 23, the protruding portion 422b of the stopper 422 is pressed by the locking member 402 provided at the hose ends 17a and 18a, and the leaf spring of the stopper 422 The portion 422a is bent, and the protruding portion 422b of the stopper 422 is pushed inward in the housing 15 to the permitted position.

  As a result, when the hoses 16, 17, 18 are connected to the excrement disposal main body 14a, the lid 15b is properly closed, the operation of the remote controller 302 (FIG. 8) is permitted, and the excrement disposal main body 14a is operated. Is possible.

  As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated based on one Embodiment, this invention is not limited to this.
