Description

  The present invention relates to a folding emergency toilet. The foldable emergency toilet according to the present invention is particularly suitable for being prepared in advance in an evacuation area where a large number of people gather in an emergency such as a large-scale power outage or a major earthquake, and assembled and used in an emergency.

  In the event of an emergency such as a large-scale blackout in a large city, a large number of people who are unable to return home temporarily gather in public facilities such as government or local government offices, gymnasiums, various halls, or schools. Many refugees and volunteers gather in evacuation areas such as public facilities in areas affected by natural disasters such as the Great Earthquake, Tsunami, or Typhoon. In such an emergency, not only the absolute number of existing toilets installed in the evacuation site is insufficient, but also the existing toilets may become unusable due to water outages or power outages. Emergency toilets have been proposed (for example, Patent Documents 1, 2, 3, and 4).

  However, the emergency folding toilets that have been proposed in the past are based on the premise that they are independent and stably stand alone, and thus require various robust self-supporting members. Will contribute to the increase. Further, since the robust self-supporting member itself is bulky, it is bulky as a whole even in a folded state, and a certain amount of space is required as a storage place. In addition, since the number of parts is large and some parts are relatively heavy, assembly work is not always easy.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide an emergency foldable toilet that reduces the manufacturing cost and the overall capacity during folding by reducing the number of components, and that is easy to assemble.

The present inventor reduced the number of components to reduce the manufacturing cost, the overall capacity when folded, and developed an emergency folding toilet that is easy to assemble. Certain types of public facilities have stable and self-supporting arrangements such as vending machines, application forms, or lockers, and these self-supporting arrangements are used. We focused on the fact that there are some surfaces that are not used.
For example, in vending machines such as beverages, the front product display and product selection operation surface is used as a surface among the four side surfaces of a substantially rectangular parallelepiped (hexahedral) box, but both sides and back surfaces other than the front surface The surface that contacts the wall is not used. In addition, sample forms and precautions of various application documents are displayed on the application document entry stand that is set up to fill in various application documents (for example, resident card grant application forms) at government or local government offices. A partition plate is provided, but the back side of the partition plate is not generally used.
Furthermore, the need to use vending machines, application desks, or lockers in the same way as in normal times is extremely reduced in emergency situations where people who are unable to return home or displaced people gather at these evacuation sites. , For example, reverse the front (use side) and back side (non-use side) of those vending machines, application document entry tables, lockers, etc., and change the direction of the back side to the front side. .
Or when the flush toilet provided in these public facilities becomes unusable due to water breakage or the like, the door of each flush toilet box room also becomes a non-use surface.
Then, this inventor discovered that the said subject could be eliminated by developing the foldable emergency toilet which can be fixed to the non-use surface of the above-mentioned various self-supporting arrangements.

Therefore, the present invention
A foldable emergency toilet that can be fixed to a self-supporting body,
The foldable emergency toilet
(1) When fixing the foldable emergency toilet to the self-supporting arrangement body, a back plate that stands upright with respect to the floor surface and faces the self-supporting arrangement body on the outer surface;
(2) a toilet seat flat plate rotatably attached to the inner surface of the back plate via a toilet seat coupling means;
(3) a toilet seat support plate rotatably attached to the inner surface of the back plate or the toilet seat flat plate via a support plate connecting means;
(4) A plurality of suspension curtain suspension bars that are foldably or detachably attached to the inner surface of the back plate via suspension bar attachment means;
(5) a shielding curtain that can be suspended from the suspension bar for the shielding curtain;
(6) fixing means used when fixing the folding emergency toilet to the self-supporting arrangement;
Including
In the folded state of the foldable emergency toilet,
(A) the toilet seat flat plate can be held substantially parallel to the inner surface of the back plate, and (B) the toilet seat support plate can be held substantially parallel to the inner surface of the back plate,
In the assembled state of the foldable emergency toilet,
(A) The toilet seat support plate is fixed substantially at right angles to the inner surface and the floor surface of the back plate, and the toilet seat flat plate is held in parallel with the floor surface at the upper surface end of the toilet seat support plate. Can
(B) The upper frame attached to the upper part of the inner surface of the back plate can be formed by the plurality of suspension bars for the shielding curtain, and (c) the shielding curtain constituting the upper frame. The side wall of the shielding space can be formed by the shielding curtain suspended on the suspension bar.
The present invention relates to the foldable emergency toilet.

  The foldable emergency toilet according to the present invention is excellent in terms of space saving during storage because all components can be folded in a substantially flat state in the folded state. Moreover, since it can be stored in a substantially flat folded state on a non-use surface of the self-standing arrangement body (for example, the back surface or side surface of the self-standing arrangement body) separate from itself, the storage space There is no need to prepare specially. For example, fix it on the back of the vending machine in a flat plate and store it between the vending machine and the wall. In an emergency, reverse the front and back sides of the vending machine so that the back side is the front side. As a result, it can be assembled from a folded state to a usable state as a toilet. In addition, the folding emergency toilet according to the present invention can be stored separately in a substantially flat folded state without being fixed to a self-supporting arrangement, and even in this case, it is excellent in space saving. .

  In the case of a foldable emergency toilet that is fixedly stored on a non-use surface of the self-supporting arrangement body, when assembling from a folded state to a usable state in an emergency, Rotate to the front or side. Alternatively, when not stored in a self-supporting arrangement, but in a folded state in a substantially flat plate, it is fixed to a non-use surface of the self-supporting arrangement and fixed to the back or side of the self-supporting arrangement. From a foldable emergency toilet, it can be easily assembled simply by expanding the toilet seat flat plate and toilet seat support plate that have been folded inside. Similarly, the upper frame that suspends the shielding curtain can be easily formed by simply expanding or attaching it from the state of being folded and housed inside.

  Since the foldable emergency toilet according to the present invention does not include the members necessary to make itself independent, the number of components is reduced compared to the conventional foldable emergency toilet, Not only does the manufacturing cost decrease, but the overall capacity when folded is also reduced. Further, since the configuration is simple, the assembly work is also simplified.

In the present specification, the vertical positional relationship (for example, “upper side” or “upper side” or “lower side” or “lower side”) is the state in which the folding emergency toilet according to the present invention is fixed to the self-supporting arrangement body. It means the vertical relationship. In addition, the positional relationship between the left and right (for example, “left side” or “right side”) is the direction from the self-standing arrangement body toward the folding emergency toilet with the folding emergency toilet according to the present invention fixed to the self-standing arrangement body. This means the positional relationship observed.
Furthermore, in this specification, the positional relationship between the inside and the outside is such that, in the assembled state of the folding emergency toilet, the inner side surrounded by the back plate and the side wall is the inner side, and the outer side is the outer side. Therefore, for example, the “outer surface” and “inner surface” for the back plate are defined as the “outer surface of the back plate” as the surface of the back plate that faces and faces the self-standing arrangement body. The surface on the opposite side is the “inner surface of the back plate”.

The folding emergency toilet according to the present invention is in a folded state (folded state) during storage, and when used as a toilet in an emergency, it is in an assembled state formed by opening a toilet seat or the like.
The foldable emergency toilet according to the present invention does not need to stand by itself stably in the folded state during storage and the assembled state during use, and an appropriate self-standing arrangement (particularly, non-use of the self-standing arrangement) It is possible to make it stand in a stable state.
