Description

  The present invention relates to a urine scattering preventive device for urinals, which is attached to a urine pad wall on the inside of a urinal and prevents urine from splashing around the person or the toilet due to rebound of urine.

  Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 1, the urinal 4 is generally made of earthenware, has a box shape with an open front, a back surface portion 5 including a urine lining wall, left and right side surface portions 6, A top plate portion 8 to which a cleaning water supply pipe 7 is connected, and a urine receiving portion 10 to which a drain pipe 9 for discharging urine and cleaning water is connected to a bottom portion continuous to the back surface portion and the side surface portion are provided. . When urine is used, urine usually hits the back surface part 5, but a part of the urine urgently hits the back part and bounces off, and is attached to the clothes of the user or scattered around the toilet. It was a problem.

  For the purpose of preventing the urine scattering, the inventions and devices disclosed in the following Patent Documents 1 to 6 are disclosed. Among the inventions and devices described above, the inventions and devices described in Patent Documents 1 to 5 attempt to prevent urine scattering by providing a certain target inside the urinal and using the target toward the target. It is. However, even if urination is directed toward this target, the surface on which the urine hits is made of a ceramic wall as in the prior art, so it is not a fundamental measure to prevent the urine from bouncing back. The device of Patent Document 6 is intended to form a water film by water discharge and prevent urine splashing by this water film, but conversely, there is a possibility that a mixture of urine and water may be scattered, which is also fundamental. There is no solution.

  As a result of earnest research on the cause of urine scattering in the urinal, the inventor of the present application has two factors as the cause of urine scattering. The first factor is the result of unconsciously urinating outside the urinal, resulting in the urine going around. The second factor was found to be that the urine bounces off and scatters on the wall of the urine even though it urinates in the urinal. As for the latter factor, there is a high probability that urine will bounce off the user's own clothes and hands. Particularly recently, there is a theory that the new type of pneumonia (Thurs) is transmitted through manure, and there has been an increasing demand for preventing urine from splashing back on clothes and hands. Under such a demand, the object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, prevent scattering due to urine rebound, and prevent urine scattering for urinals that also function as a target during urination Is to provide.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a urine scattering preventive device attached to a urine urine wall surface of a urinal, comprising a plate-like urine urging part made of a cushioning material such as a sponge member, and the urine urging part. And a urine scattering prevention device for urinals, wherein the adapter is used by being attached to a urine pad wall surface of the urinal (Claim 1).

  Moreover, in order to solve the said subject, this invention makes it the said urine pad part to use the cushioning material, such as a sponge member, and the draining member, It is set as the said urine scattering prevention tool for urinals characterized by the above-mentioned. (Claim 2).

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention is characterized in that the urine pad is mounted behind the urine pad part (a surface opposite to the surface on which urine hits) with an appropriate space therebetween. It is preferable to use a urine scattering preventive device for urinals (claim 3).

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides the urine pad, wherein the antibacterial agent, bactericidal agent, antifungal agent, deodorant, fragrance or antifouling agent is used alone or in combination. It is preferable to use the urine scattering preventive device for urinals according to any one of the above, wherein the urine scattering preventive device is characterized in that it is treated with a stool (claim 4).

  Since the urine scattering preventive device for urinals of the present invention is configured as described above, it can prevent scattering due to urine rebound, and urine is difficult to adhere to the clothes and hands of the user, and urine is used as a medium. It is effective in preventing infectious diseases such as the new type of pneumonia (Thurs). Moreover, by attaching to the urine contact surface of the urinal, it also functions as a target for small use, and is expected to be effective as a complete urine scattering prevention tool. Furthermore, the urine pad is extremely excellent in drainage due to urine and washing water, and is configured to be easily replaceable. is there.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which a urine scattering preventive device for urinals according to the present embodiment is attached to a urinal, and FIG. 2 shows the urine scattering preventing device for urinals in which a urine pad is removed from an adapter. FIG. In FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, reference numeral 1 denotes a urine scattering prevention device for a urinal, which is configured so that the urine pad 2 can be detachably attached to the adapter 3. Then, the adapter 3 is used by being attached to the urine contact surface of the back surface portion 5 of the urinal 4 with an adhesive or an adhesive.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the adapter 3 according to the embodiment of the present invention is provided with a groove frame 32 having an L-shaped cross section on the periphery other than the upper side of the back plate 31. The net 33 is provided and partitioned at an intermediate position, and the urine pad 2 is inserted into the left and right grooves 35, 35 in front of the net 33 from the upper opening so as to be detachable. In this way, the urine pad portion 2 is arranged with the appropriate space 34 between the rear back plate 31 (or the urine pad surface of the back surface portion 5 when there is no back plate 31) via the net 33. Is done.

  The material of the adapter 3 is not particularly limited as long as it has a certain level of water resistance, but a material obtained by molding a thermoplastic resin by injection molding or hot pressing is preferable. As the thermoplastic resin, usually, high density polyethylene, polypropylene, ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene copolymerization or blend) resin, vinyl chloride resin, polycarbonate, polyester, polyamide, etc. are used alone or in combination. To some extent, it is preferable to have a hard or preservative shape. In addition to these thermoplastic resins, thermosetting resins such as urea resin and melamine resin, and FRP (fiber reinforced resin) may be used. Furthermore, it is preferable to blend additives such as coloring agents, fillers, antibacterial agents, deodorants, fragrances, other antioxidants, and molding aids with the resin.

  Next, the urine pad 2 will be described. The urine pad portion 2 is formed of a plate-like member in which a cushioning material 21 such as a sponge member and a draining member 22 are combined. The urine pad 2 in the present embodiment has a configuration in which a cushioning material 21 that is a sponge member and a draining member 22 that is a nonwoven fabric are bonded together. The cushioning material 21 is preferably a flexible material obtained by foaming a polyolefin resin such as polyurethane, polyethylene, or polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, natural rubber, or synthetic rubber. Furthermore, a continuous foam having good drainage such as urine and washing water is preferable. The method for producing the foam is not particularly limited. For example, a compound obtained by mixing a foaming agent such as azodicarbonamide with the resin is heated and kneaded at a temperature lower than the decomposition temperature of the foaming agent, and then the temperature is higher than the decomposition temperature of the foaming agent. Heat to foam. In addition to the above chemical foaming method, for example, a mechanical foaming method in which a vinyl chloride sol is stirred and foamed may be used.

  The draining member 22 bonded to one surface of the cushioning material 21 such as the sponge member plays an auxiliary role for removing urine and washing water contained in the cushioning material 21 out of the system. Therefore, a non-woven fabric in which filaments such as polyester, nylon, polyolefin resin and the like are formed by a spunbond method or a needle punching method is preferable. In addition, a woven fabric or a knitted fabric with good drainage may be used.

  In addition, any one of the buffer material 21 and the draining member 22, preferably both, one or a combination of an antibacterial agent, a bactericidal agent, a fungicide, a deodorant, a fragrance, or an antifouling agent. It is preferable to treat with a thing. For example, as a method for preventing contamination, there is a method of treating with a surface treatment agent mixed with a fluororesin, a surfactant or an antistatic agent. Examples of other agents include silver-based or ceramic-based antibacterial agents (such as Super Zeomic (registered trademark) manufactured by Sinanen), antifungal agents (such as Bioside (registered trademark) manufactured by Taisho Technos), and deodorizers (produced by Daicel) Deocept (registered trademark) or the like is preferably used. Commercially available fragrances may be kneaded. Furthermore, it is preferable to impart antifouling and antibacterial effects by treating with a titanium oxide photocatalyst.

  FIG. 3 is an explanatory view showing a state where the urine scattering preventive device for urinals according to the present embodiment is attached to the urinal and is being used. For example, when the momentum of the urine 11 is weak, the urine 11 flows downward without reaching the inside of the cushioning material 21 when the momentum of the urine 11 is weak. However, when the momentum of the urine is strong to some extent, as shown in FIG. 3, the momentum of the urine is reduced by the cushioning material 21, so that rebound can be prevented. Furthermore, when it passes through the cushioning material 21 and reaches any one of the draining member 22, the space 34, or the back plate 31, the momentum of the urine approaches the horizontal vector as much as zero and drops by gravity. Even if it hits the back plate 31 and bounces back, it hits the draining member 22 and drops, so it does not re-penetrate the cushioning material 21. If the washing water is discharged from above after the small use, the washing water passes through the buffer material 21 and is led to the draining member 22 or the space 34 together with the urine, so that the washing effect is increased.

  In the present embodiment, the urine pad portion 2 in which the cushioning material 21 such as a sponge member and the draining member 22 are bonded together has been described as an example, but a member having both a cushioning action and a draining action with one member, For example, a non-woven fabric, a woven fabric, a woven fabric, or the like made of the filament having a draining action is preferably attached with a foam having a buffering action. Further, if the urine pad itself is hard enough to withstand the impact of urine, the partition may be provided only at the middle position of the groove of the groove frame 32 instead of the mesh 33 in the adapter 3 (not shown). ) The back plate 31 may be entirely or partially removed.

  Next, although an Example is described, this invention is not limited to this Example. In the embodiment described above, the adapter 3 made of high-density polyethylene was produced by injection molding. The adapter 3 has a width of about 12 cm, a length of about 15 cm, an inner width dimension of the groove frame 32 of about 12 mm, and a net 33 having a thickness of about 2 mm in the middle thereof. The urine pad portion 2 is made by bonding a nonwoven fabric made of nylon 66 to a flexible polyurethane foam, and has a thickness of about 5 mm. The urine pad 2 was attached to the grooves 35, 35 of the adapter 3 to obtain a urine scattering preventive device for urinals according to this example.

  Next, the urine scattering preventive tool for urinals according to the above-described example was attached to the urine urging wall surface of an actual urinal with an adhesive having water resistance. And, as a result of taking a questionnaire using five adult male monitors for one month, the urinal with the urine scattering prevention device for urinals according to this example is not compared with the urine scattering prevention device for urinals Compared with the urinal according to the example, it was clearly confirmed that there was no scattering of urine around the toilet and bounce of urine to the user.

  The urine scattering preventive device for urinals according to the present invention can prevent scattering due to urine rebound, etc., and it is difficult for urine to adhere to clothes and hands of a user, and it is said to be a new type of pneumonia (Thurs) It is also expected to prevent infectious diseases such as the above, and has a simple structure, excellent economic and hygienic properties, and is extremely useful.
