The first portion 23 a has a rectangular shape having a length that is approximately half that of the lower elastic member 22, and the second and third portions 23 b and 23 c are half the length of the lower elastic member 22. The width dimension is shorter than half of the width dimension of the lower elastic member 22.

  Of the three divided parts 23 a to 23 c of the mattress main body 21, the upper elastic member 23 of the first part 23 a is stacked from one end in the longitudinal direction of the lower elastic member 22 to the middle part.

  The upper elastic member 23 of the second and third portions 23b and 23c is at the other end in the longitudinal direction of the lower elastic member 22, and one end surface is opposite to the end surface in the longitudinal direction of the upper elastic member 23 of the first portion 23a. The lower elastic member 22 is laminated at a predetermined interval with respect to the width direction.

  Accordingly, a T-shaped groove is formed on the upper surface of the lower elastic member 22 by a portion where the upper elastic member 23 is divided as shown in FIG. Of the T-shaped grooves, a groove formed in the middle in the longitudinal direction of the mattress main body 21 over the entire length in the width direction and having both ends opened on both side surfaces in the width direction of the mattress main body 21 is referred to as a first groove 25a. One groove portion 25a has one end communicating with the other groove portion 25a and the other end opened on the side surface in the longitudinal direction of the mattress body 21 as a second groove portion 25b. The lower elastic member 22 and the upper elastic member 23 are integrated by bonding.

  The exterior ground 24 covers the surfaces of the laminated lower elastic member 22 and upper elastic member 23. The surfaces of the first and second groove portions 25a and 25b of the exterior ground 24, that is, the portions covering both side surfaces and the bottom surface are formed of a first waterproof sheet 24a such as a resin that does not absorb liquid.

  As shown in FIG. 4, between the upper surface of the lower elastic member 22 and the upper surface of the upper elastic member 23 in the portion of the first groove portion 25a, a steel wire or the like is larger than the width dimension of the first groove portion 25a. A reinforcing frame 27 formed in a rectangular shape with a large width dimension is provided.

  As a result, when the mattress body 21 is bent by the raised floor portion 9 that rises, the first groove portion 25a of the portion provided with the reinforcing frame 27 is prevented from being extremely crushed. ing.

  The reinforcing frame 27 is set to a length shorter than the width of the mattress main body 21 and is covered with the fabric 27a. The fabric 27a is located on the lower surface side of the first waterproof sheet 24a covering the inner surface of the first groove 25a.

  A pair of first elastic filling members 29 are mounted in the first groove 25a. As shown in FIG. 4, the first elastic filling member 29 includes a core material 31a and a cover 31b covering the core material 31a. The core material 31 a is formed of an elastic material having the same hardness as that of the upper elastic member 23, so that the height dimension is the same as the depth dimension of the first groove portion 25 a, and the length dimension is two times the width dimension of the mattress body 21. It is formed shorter than 1 and has a reverse concave shape with a recess 32 formed on the lower surface.

  In the cover 31b, a portion covering the upper surface of the core material 31 is formed by the same fabric 32a as the exterior fabric 24, and a portion covering the portion other than the upper surface is formed by the second waterproof sheet 31c.

  As shown in FIG. 3, when the pair of first elastic filling members 29 configured as described above are mounted in the first groove portion 25 a with one end face flush with the end face in the width direction of the mattress body 21, Between the other end face of the first elastic filling member 29, an introduction opening 33 communicating with the first groove 25a is formed.

  When the excrement disposal apparatus 13 is not used, an elastic blocking member 34 (shown in FIG. 2) formed by covering the introduction opening 33 with an elastic material having the same hardness as the upper elastic member 23. Is installed. Thereby, the introduction opening 33 can be closed.

  A second elastic filling member 35 having the same length as that of the second groove portion 25b is attached to the second groove portion 25b. As shown in FIG. 2, in the second elastic filling member 35, the upper surface of the core material 31a is covered with a cover 31b made of cloth, and the surface other than the upper surface is the second elastic filling member 29, as in the first elastic filling member 29. It is covered with a waterproof sheet 31c, and a recess 32 is formed on the lower surface over the entire length in the longitudinal direction.

  When the user U uses the excrement disposal apparatus 13, as shown by a chain line in FIG. 3, the excrement receptacle 15 attached to the crotch part of the user U and the hose 16 connecting the apparatus main body 14. Is introduced from the introduction opening 33 into the first groove 25a.

  When the apparatus main body 14 is installed on the side of the bed apparatus 1, the hose 16 introduced into the first groove 25 a is passed through the concave portion 32 of the first elastic filling member 29 and the width of the mattress main body 21. From the one end of the first groove portion 25 a opened in the end surface in the direction, the lead is led out to the outside and connected to the apparatus main body 14.

  When the apparatus main body 14 is installed on the foot board 7 side of the bed apparatus 1, the hose 16 is inserted into the second groove 25b from the introduction opening 33, and the mattress of the second groove 25b is inserted. What is necessary is just to derive | lead-out outside from the edge part opened to the end surface of the longitudinal direction of the main body 21. FIG.

  According to the mattress device 11 configured as described above, the hose 16 having one end connected to the excrement receptacle 15 attached to the crotch portion of the user U has the first groove portion 25a or the second groove portion 25b. It can be led out to the outside from the side surface of the mattress device 11 and can be connected to the device body 14 of the excrement disposal device 13.

  That is, the hose 16 can be led out of the mattress main body 21 without rubbing the upper surface of the mattress device 11. Therefore, the hose 16 does not come into contact with the body of the user U lying on the upper surface of the mattress device 11, so that it is possible to prevent the body of the user U from being inflamed due to contact with the hose 16. Moreover, since the hose 16 does not come into contact with the user U's body, the user U is not discomforted.

  By forming the first groove portion 25a penetrating in the width direction in the mattress device 11, the hose 16 can be led out from either one end or the other end of the mattress device 11 in the width direction. Moreover, since the mattress device 11 is also formed with the second groove 25b that opens on the side surface in the longitudinal direction, the hose 16 can be led out from the side surface in the longitudinal direction.

  Therefore, since the apparatus main body 14 can be installed in any of the width direction and the longitudinal direction of the mattress apparatus 11, the installation of the apparatus main body 14 is not restricted and the usability is improved. There is.

  The first and second elastic filling members 29 and 35 having the recesses 32 are detachably attached to the first and second groove portions 25a and 25b. Therefore, operations such as inserting the hose 16 into the first groove portion 25a and the second groove portion 25b and taking out the inserted hose 16 can be easily performed.

  The reinforcing frame 27 is provided between the contact surfaces of the lower elastic member 22 and the upper elastic member 23 in the portion of the mattress body 21 where the first groove 25a is formed. When the bed apparatus 1 is a back-up type, when the back-up floor portion 9 is raised, the mattress main body 21 is easily bent at the middle portion, in particular, the first groove from which the upper elastic member 23 has been removed, the portion 25a. .

  When the back-up floor portion 9 is raised, the lower elastic member 22 in the portion where the first groove portion 25a is formed is prevented from being strongly bent by the reinforcing frame 27, and therefore the first groove portion 25a. Also, the hose 16 inserted through is not crushed. That is, even if the mattress main body 21 is bent at the time of raising the back, it is possible to reliably prevent the hose 16 from being crushed by the bending and the function from being lowered.

  On the other hand, when the user U wipes the body, the excrement receptacle 15 may be removed from the user U. At that time, since the hose 16 is removed from the excrement receptacle 15, the liquid remaining in the excrement receptacle 15 and the hose 16 may leak into the first groove 25a and the second groove 25b.

  The inner surfaces of the first groove portion 25a and the second groove portion 25b are covered with a first waterproof sheet 24a, and the first and second elastic filling members 29 attached to the first and second groove portions 25a and 25b, The surface excluding the upper surface of 35 is covered with a second waterproof sheet 32b.

  Therefore, even if the liquid remaining in the excrement receptacle 15 and the hose 16 leaks into the first groove portion 25a and the second groove portion 25b, the liquid forms the lower elastic member 22 and the upper elastic member 23 that form the mattress main body 21. Soak into the core material 31a of the first and second elastic filling members 29 and 35. And the liquid adhering to the 2nd waterproof sheet 32b of those surfaces can be easily wiped off and cleaned.

  Moreover, when only the 2nd groove part 25b is formed in the mattress main body 21, when making the 2nd elastic filling member 35 into the same length dimension as the 2nd groove part 25b, and using the excrement disposal apparatus 13, 2nd elasticity The filling member 35 may be shifted outward in the longitudinal direction to form the introduction opening 33 on one end side thereof.
