  However, in conventional diapers, when the wearer sits down or crouches, the excrement excreted inside the diaper adheres to the skin of the body, resulting in unsanitary and discomfort to the wearer. There was a problem of this.

  Then, this invention makes it a subject to provide the excrement container which can prevent the excretion excreted from adhering to a body.

  The excrement container according to claim 1 is used by being directly attached to a wearer and used alone or by being attached to the inside of a diaper. A check valve provided at a storage port of the storage bag, and configured to close the storage port so that the storage port can be opened and closed to prevent the excrement stored in the storage bag from leaking outward. .

  In the excrement container according to claim 2, in particular, the check valve is constituted by a plurality of radially divided valve bodies, and each of the valve bodies has a base portion joined to a peripheral edge of the storage port portion, and the base portion. The opposite center side end is formed so as to elastically rotate in the inner and outer directions of the storage bag with the base as an axis, and a part of the opposite end overlaps with a part of the other valve body.

  The excrement container according to claim 3 is formed of a lid member, in which the check valve is pivoted inward and outward of the storage bag, with the joint with the peripheral edge of the storage port of the storage bag as an axis, and elastically The storage port is always urged toward the outside and the rotation is restricted by a stopper provided in the storage port, thereby closing the storage port so that it can be opened and closed.

  The invention of claim 1 prevents the excrement in the storage bag from flowing back and leaking outward from the storage opening by the check valve, so that the excrement adheres to the skin of the body and becomes dirty. Can be prevented. As a result, it is prevented from becoming unsanitary, and it is possible to prevent the wearer from feeling uncomfortable due to adhering excrement.

  In the second aspect of the invention, since a part of the check valve overlaps with a part of the other valve body in a detachable manner, it interferes with the other valve body and becomes a resistance so that the valve body becomes the storage port. The elastic rotation to the outside beyond the closed position is suppressed. As a result, since the valve body stops at the closed position and closes the storage port, it is possible to prevent the excrement from being pushed up by the excrement excreted in the storage bag and leaking out from the storage port and flowing backward.

  In the invention of claim 3, since the stopper is provided in the storage port, the check valve is prevented from elastically rotating beyond the closed position of the storage port to the outside. As a result, since the check valve stops at the closed position and closes the storage port, it can be prevented that the waste is pushed up by the excrement excreted in the storage bag and the excrement leaks out from the storage port and flows backward. .

<First embodiment>
First, the excrement container of 1st embodiment of this invention is demonstrated based on a figure. Throughout each embodiment, the same member, element, component, or part may be denoted by the same reference numeral, and the description thereof may be omitted. In this embodiment, the storage port side of the storage bag of the excrement container will be described as the upper side, and the bottom side of the storage bag will be described as the lower side.

  The excrement container of this embodiment is attached directly under the anus of a bedridden sick person or elderly person, other elderly persons, infants, disabled persons, etc., and stores excrement such as stool inside. It is used by being directly attached to the wearer alone or by being attached to the inside of the diaper. In FIG. 1, the excrement container 1 is shown attached to the inside of a diaper. The excrement is received from the storage port 13 of the storage port 12 and stored therein, and the storage bag 11 is stored. And a check valve 21 provided in the mouth portion 12 for preventing the excrement stored in the storage bag 11 from leaking outward. In FIG. 1, the diaper is not shown.

  The storage bag 11 is formed of a cloth material, paper material, or the like, and an absorbent material that absorbs liquid such as urine is accommodated therein, or an inner surface thereof is lined with an absorbent material that absorbs liquid as necessary. Yes. The storage bag 11 can be accommodated in a diaper and has a volume capable of accommodating excrement, and is usually accommodated in the diaper by being folded into a bellows structure or the like, and the excrement is accommodated therein. The internal volume expands when entering from the mouth 13. The storage port 13 of the storage bag 11 is formed in an elliptical shape, a rectangular shape, a semicircular shape or the like in addition to a circular shape.

  The check valve 21 is composed of a plurality of, in this embodiment, four fan-shaped valve elements 22 that are radially divided by a cross-shaped slit around the center of the storage port 13. Each valve body 22 is formed of a flexible resin plate or the like, and at least the upper surface side where the excrement falls facing the anus improves sliding so that the excrement falls smoothly into the storage bag 11. In addition, in order to provide anti-corrosion properties, it is desirable to be formed of silicon resin, fluorine resin or the like, or it is desirable that these resins are coated on the upper surface side.

  Each fan-shaped valve element 22 has a central angle of 90 degrees, and the arc portion is a base portion 22 a joined to the peripheral edge 14 of the storage port 13. A central side end 22b opposite to the base 22a is located at the center of the storage port 13, and is elastically rotated inward and outward of the storage bag 11 around the base 22a. The check valve 21 normally protrudes horizontally in the storage port 13 of the storage bag 11, that is, extends in a flush state, and the four valve bodies 22 are integrated so as to be openable and closable. Yes.

  In the excrement container 1 configured as described above, when the excreted excrement falls on the upper surface of the valve body 22 of the storage port 13 of the storage bag 11, the valve body 22 has the base portion 22 a by the weight of excrement such as defecation. The center side end portion 22b hangs down as a shaft. As a result, the storage port 13 is opened, the valve body 22 is bent and inclined, and the excrement slides down the upper surface of the valve body 22 and falls into the storage bag 11. After the excrement falls into the storage bag 11, the valve body 22 elastically returns to the original horizontal position, and the storage port 13 is closed again.

  Next, when the wearer squats down or sits with the excrement falling in the storage bag 11, the excrement rises toward the storage port 13 and tends to protrude outward. However, since the storage port 13 is provided with the check valve 21, movement upward from the storage port 13 is prevented, thereby preventing excrement from adhering to the wearer's skin. For this reason, it is prevented that it becomes unsanitary and a wearer is prevented from feeling uncomfortable. Although the excrement once rests on the upper surface of the valve body 22 due to defecation and the excrement adheres to the inside of the storage bag 11 after dropping, the amount of the excrement is slight, and it does not cause any serious trouble. Further, since the excrement in the storage bag 11 is prevented from moving upward from the storage port 13 by the check valve 21 when the wearer squats down, the excrement in the storage bag 11 spreads sideways. Become.

Next, another excrement container of the first embodiment is shown in the plan view of FIG.
In FIG. 2, each valve element 22 of the check valve 21 of the excrement container 1 partially overlaps with a part of the other valve element 22 so as to be detachable in the vertical direction. Specifically, the length of the fan-shaped side is set to be larger than the distance from the peripheral edge 14 to the center of the storage port 13, that is, the radius, and the left side when viewed from the base 22 a side of the valve body 22 is It protrudes so as to cover a part of the valve body 22 on the left side in FIG. A superposed portion 23 that protrudes as a part of each valve body 22 is indicated by a hatched portion in FIG.

  In the case of the excrement container 1, when the excreted excrement falls on the upper surface of the valve element 22 of the storage port 13 of the storage bag 11, the valve element 22 is defecated similarly to the check valve 21 shown in FIG. 1. Due to the weight of excrement, etc., the base portion 22b is bent downward with the base portion 22a as an axis, and the center side end portion 22b hangs down. However, after that, when the wearer squats down or sits down, when the excrement rises toward the storage port 13 and pushes up the valve body 22 and tries to protrude outward, a part of the valve body 22 is another valve. Since the other valve body 22 becomes a resistance by overlapping with the body 22, the force that suppresses the valve body 22 from elastically rotating beyond the closed position of the storage port 13 to the outside increases. As a result, the effect of preventing the excrement excreted in the storage bag 11 from leaking out and flowing backward is increased.

Next, still another excrement container of the first embodiment is shown in FIG.
In the excrement container 1 of FIG. 3, a stopper projects from the peripheral edge 14 of the storage port 13 toward the center at a position on the base portion 22 a side of both side pieces of the valve body 22. Here, FIG. 3A shows a rod-shaped stopper 24, and FIG. 3B shows a T-shaped stopper 25. In the excrement container 1 shown in FIG. 3, when the excrement in the storage bag 11 rises to the storage port 13 side and pushes up the valve body 22 and tries to protrude outward, the valve body 22 is restricted by these stoppers. As a result, the force that prevents the container 13 from elastically rotating beyond the closed position of the storage port 13 is increased, and the backflow prevention effect by the check valve 21 is increased.

Next, still another excrement container of the first embodiment is shown in FIG.
In the excrement container 1 in FIG. 4A, a portion indicated by hatching in the peripheral portion of one side of the valve body 22 is a thick portion 26. The valve body 22 of the excrement container 1 is easily bent at a portion different from the central end 22b. Further, in the excrement container 1 of FIG. 4B, the rod member 27 is placed and joined obliquely on the upper surface of the valve body 22 in the periphery of both or one of the sides.

  By the way, although the valve body 22 of each said embodiment is formed in planar shape, as shown in FIG. 5, the some protrusion 28 which protrudes slightly upwards on the plane of the valve body 22 is the base 22a side. It is good also as what was provided in linear form from the center side edge part 22b. In this case, the excrement is mainly placed on the protrusion 28 in the valve body 22, the contact area with the valve body 22 becomes small, and the resistance when sliding down on the valve body 22 becomes small. The excrement excreted upward easily falls into the storage bag 11. In addition, the protrusions 28 increase the strength and rigidity of the valve body 22.

<Second embodiment>
Next, the excrement container according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
6 (a) and 6 (b), the excrement container 1 according to the second embodiment is configured such that the check valve 21 is connected to the inside and outside of the storage bag 11 around the joint with the peripheral edge of the storage port 12 of the storage bag 11. It is formed of a cover member 29 that rotates in the direction, that is, the vertical direction indicated by the alternate long and short dash line in FIG. The lid member 29 which is the check valve 21 is formed in a size that covers the entire storage port 13 and is formed of a resin plate or the like. Similarly to the valve body 22 of the first embodiment, the lid member 29 is formed of silicon resin, fluororesin, or the like in order to improve excrement slipping and facilitate excrement dropping. It is desirable to coat. Further, the lid member 29 may be formed on the upper and lower surfaces with a plurality of ridges 28 as shown in FIG. 5 projecting linearly or curvedly at predetermined intervals.

  A joint portion of the check valve 21 including the lid member 29 is provided with a coil-shaped spring material 30 that urges the check valve 21 in a direction that always rotates upward. A stopper 31 having a predetermined width protruding toward the center of the storage port 13 is provided at the periphery of the storage port portion 12 on the side opposite to the spring member 30. It is restricted from rotating to the upper side of the storage port 13 in contact with the lower surface of the storage. Accordingly, the check valve 21 is positioned at the same height as the storage port 13 and closes the entire storage port 13 so as to be freely opened and closed. Accordingly, it is prevented that the excrement is pushed up by the excrement excreted in the storage bag 11 and the excrement leaks from the storage port 13 and flows backward.

  In addition, the spring material which urges the check valve 21 in the direction in which the check valve 21 is always rotated upward is, as shown in FIG. 6 (c), a hinge-structured plate bent in a substantially square shape in the vertical direction. The spring material 32 may be formed and joined to the lower surface of the lid member 29 which is the check valve 21 and the inner wall surface of the storage bag 11 so that the check valve 21 is always rotated upward. You can

By the way, although the excrement container 1 of each said embodiment has shown what stores a defecation, the excrement container 1 of this invention can also store a urine, and also stores a defecation and a urination simultaneously. You can also
In addition, when using the excrement container 1 directly attached to a wearer independently, the excrement container 1 can be attached using an adhesive tape etc. although it is not preferable for long-term use, for example.

  The present invention is used in the industry of manufacturing diapers.
