It is sectional drawing of the specific Example of the urine / feces detection sensor of this invention. It is a structure schematic diagram of the concrete Example of the diaper of this invention. It is sectional drawing of the specific Example of the diaper of this invention. It is a position schematic diagram of an absorption core layer and a sensor in a concrete example of a diaper of the present invention. It is a position schematic diagram of the absorption core layer and sensor in other specific examples of the diaper of the present invention.

  It should be explained that the embodiments of the present application and the features of the embodiments can be combined with each other as long as there is no contradiction.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2, the entire belt-like, hydrophilic first base sheet 1, a first conductive strip 21, a second conductive strip 22 provided on the first base sheet 1, and In a urine and stool detection sensor including a conductive strip group 2 including a third conductive strip 23, a first adhesive layer 3, and a release liner 4 provided on the surface of the first adhesive layer,
The second conductive strip 22 and the third conductive strip 23 are respectively located on both sides of the first conductive strip 21, spaced apart from and parallel to the first conductive strip 21, and the second conductive strip 22. Alternatively, one false alarm through hole 5 is provided in the middle of the third conductive strip 23, and the barrier layer 6 is coated on the other conductive strip, and the false alarm through hole 5 has a corresponding conductive property. The strip is divided into two stages, the sensor is divided into a stool detection area and a stool detection area, the urine area is from the sensor tip 7 to the false alarm through hole 5, and the barrier layer 6 to the end of the sensor Up to the stool area. A region between the false alarm through hole 5 and the tail end of the barrier layer 6 is an isolation region DD.

  In use, when the wearer urinates, the upper part of the hydrophilic first base sheet 1 gets wet, but since the barrier layer 6 is coated on the second conductive strip 22, The two conductive strips 22 are invalid, the resistance between the first conductive strip 21 and the third conductive strip 23 is reduced, and when the stool is taken, the lower portion of the first base sheet 1 gets wet. Since the third conductive strip 23 is divided into two stages by the false alarm through hole 5, the third conductive strip 23 is invalid in the stool region. At this time, the first conductive strip 21 and the second conductive strip The resistance to 22 is reduced. As can be seen from the above, large and small stool detection can be realized by a change in resistance between the three conductive strips.

  Furthermore, the diffusion of moisture causes a phenomenon in which moisture in the large and small stool areas diffuses to each other, which may lead to false alarms of large and small stools. However, extending the length of the barrier layer 6 is beneficial in solving this problem. become. The barrier layer 6 starts from the front end 7 of the sensor and has a length longer than the vertical length from the front end of the sensor to the false alarm through hole 5 but shorter than the length of the sensor. For this purpose, an isolation area DD is formed between the false alarm through hole 5 and the tail end of the barrier layer 6 to provide a water diffusion space for the large and small stool areas to prevent false alarms. be able to.

  Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the width of the barrier layer 6 is larger than the conductive strip in order to better block the contact between the conductive strip and moisture by the barrier layer.

  Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the first, second, and third conductive strips 21, 22, and 23 are provided with first, second, and third conductive connections, respectively, for convenience of connection to the circuit portion. The first, second and third conductive connections are provided at the tip 7 of the sensor.

  For the same reason, the false alarm through hole 5 is provided in the second conductive strip 22, but even if the barrier layer 6 is provided in the third conductive strip 23, the above-described embodiment can be similarly realized.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the diaper includes a diaper main body 8 provided with a urine / feces detection sensor 9 on an upper portion thereof, and the first to third conductive strips 21, 22, and 23 shown in FIG. And the isolated area DD of the urine detection sensor 9 is located between the anal part and the genital part of the wearer, and corresponds to the urine detection area of the urine detection sensor 9, respectively.

The detection sensor 9 is provided between the hydrophilic surface layer 10 and the first flow guiding layer 11.

  As shown in FIG. 5, there is a partition region D in the middle of the absorbent core layer 12, and the isolation region DD of the urine / feces detection sensor 9 is located in the diaper partition region D. When the diaper wearer urinates, the urine area B and urine area A of the diaper are wetted by the absorption action of the absorbent core layer 12, but the urine area B and stool area A are detected by the urine detection sensor 9. Corresponding to each of the area BB and the stool detection area AA, the suction core layer 12 is useful for moisture absorption, and thereby the detection of the urine detection sensor 9 for urine and urine becomes more accurate. At the same time, by providing the partition area D in the middle of the absorbent core layer 12, the urine and urine detection areas are separated to prevent false alarms when detecting urine and urine.

  Further, as a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the stool area A is not provided with an absorption core layer, and this form is disadvantageous for absorption of stool moisture, but the manufacturing cost of diapers is reduced. (Absorbing core layer is reduced), and there is no need for absorption since the diaper is usually replaced immediately after the stool by the parent.

  Furthermore, the barrier layer 6 on the urine detection sensor 9 passes through the partition area D and prevents moisture in the urine area from diffusing into the stool area.

  The diaper is a collection unit for collecting electrical features between the first, second and third conductive strips 21, 22, 23, whether the wearer defecates based on the collected electrical features And a processing unit for distinguishing between urine and urine, and one communication trigger device including a wireless communication module used for communication with the intelligent terminal and transmitting detection information of urine and urine to the intelligent terminal .
