Description

  The present invention relates to a container formed in a bottle shape for receiving urine, and more particularly to a urinal capable of easily measuring the amount of urination.

  Conventionally, as this type of urinary organ, for example, the following ones exist. That is, this conventional one is a bottle-shaped urinal body having a urination port on the front side, a carrying handle provided on the upper surface of the urinal body, and a linear shape provided on the side surface of the urinal body. And a measurement scale.

  In addition, a flat part is provided on the rear side of the urinary body, and the scale is formed in parallel with the flat part so that the urine volume can be read in a state where the urinal body is erected with the flat part facing downward. (Patent Document 1). By providing a scale on the urinary body in this way, it becomes possible to accurately grasp the change in the amount of urination, and it is possible to check the physical condition of the patient and the health condition.

When such a urinal is used, urination is performed while holding the handle and applying the receptacle to the body. Then, after urination, the urine volume is measured by reading the scale in a state where the urinal body is erected while holding the handle or the flat portion of the urinary body is placed on a table or the like. .

  However, like the above-described conventional urinary apparatus, when measuring the amount of urination, the user holds the handle to hold the urinal body in an upright state, or in this state, the plane portion is placed on a table or the like. Is very cumbersome.

  In addition, the urinary body placed on a table or the like in a standing state has a drawback that it lacks stability due to its shape, and there is a possibility that urination may leak due to inadvertent rollover. It was.

  Furthermore, in order for the user who is lying down to confirm the amount of urination after urination, the operation of raising the urine is not always easy, and urine may be spilled at that time. Even if the urine can be raised, it is difficult to accurately read the amount of urination in this state.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of such a point, and an object of the present invention is to make it possible to easily and accurately measure the amount of urination without imposing a burden on the user.

The proposed urinary organ includes a urinary body having a urination opening, a handle provided on the upper surface of the urinary body, and a scale provided on the urinary body for measuring the amount of urination. The scale is configured so as to be readable with the lower surface of the urinary body facing downward.

  When urination is performed using such a urinal, it is usually performed with the lower surface of the urinary body facing downward while grasping the handle. After urination, the user or the like holds the urinary body with the lower surface of the urinary body facing down, or places it on a desk or table in this state, reads the scale, and measures the amount of urination.

  According to this, the measurement can be performed in a simple and stable manner as compared with the conventional one in which the urinary body is purposely rotated to the upright state after urination to measure the amount of urination.

  In addition, a user who is lying down can accurately read the scale without raising the urine.

  Furthermore, the scale may be constituted by a linear first scale provided in parallel with the lower surface of the urinary body.

  According to this, it is possible to read the scale with the lower surface portion of the urinary body facing downward, and the amount of urination can be measured.

  The graduation is formed in a linear first graduation provided parallel to the lower surface portion, and a linear first graduation formed at a right angle to the first graduation so that the urinal body can be erected. It is also possible to configure with two scales.

  According to this, it is possible to measure the amount of urination by reading the second scale not only in a state where the lower surface portion of the urinary body is faced down but also in a state where the urinary body is erected. That is, it is possible to flexibly cope with the situation at that time, and the usability is also good.

  The scale may be formed in a dot shape. According to such a dotted scale, it is possible to perform reading in a state where the lower surface portion of the urinary body is faced downward and a state where the urinary body is erected. There is also an advantage of a neat design.

  Furthermore, a numerical value indicating the amount of urination may be provided on the side of the scale. According to this, it is possible to quickly and accurately measure the amount of urination by reading numerical values.

  According to the present invention, the amount of urination can be easily and accurately measured without imposing a burden on the user.

  FIG. 1 shows a bottle-shaped urinal body 1 in which urine is stored, a carrying handle 2 attached to a rear upper surface portion 1a of the urinal body 1, and a rear side surface of the urinal body 1. FIG. 2 is a front view of a female urinal provided with a cylindrical urination port 3 provided and a receiving port 4 detachably attached to the urination port 3. Each of these members is formed of a synthetic resin having flexibility, and the urinary body 1 is formed to be transparent or translucent. Further, the lower surface portion 1b of the urinary body 1 is formed in a substantially flat shape, and is usually placed on a desk or a table with the lower surface portion 1b facing downward, as shown in FIG.

  A scale 5 is provided on one side of the urinary body 1. In this case, the scale 5 may be provided on both sides of the urinal body 1. The scale 5 is composed of a plurality of linear first scales 6 formed in parallel with the lower surface portion 1b of the urinary body 1 and second scales 7 provided perpendicularly thereto. Is formed. Further, on the side of the second scale 7, a numerical value 8 indicating the amount of urination is formed from 100 ml to 700 ml every 100 ml. In addition, since the shape of the urinary body 1 is a so-called flat shape, the interval of each scale of the first scale 6 is narrower than that of the second scale 7. Further, the intervals between the scales 6 and 7 are not equal, but are not uniform according to the shape of the urinary body 1.

  A convex portion 9 having a substantially T-shaped cross section as shown in FIG. 2 is provided in the front-rear direction at the center of the upper surface portion on the rear side of the urinary body 1, and a planar substantially triangular shape is formed on both upper side surfaces on the rear side. The locking portion 10 is projected. The handle 2 includes an annular grip portion 2 a and an attachment portion 2 b that is attached to the urinary body 1. As shown in FIG. 1, a convex portion 11 is provided on the rear surface of the grip portion 2a so as to be displaced rearward.

  Accordingly, even at night when the front and rear of the urinary can not be visually discerned, the user holds the grip portion 2a and touches the convex portion 11, so that the urinal can be moved forward or backward. It can be easily determined whether it is suitable. Thus, it is possible to appropriately avoid a situation in which the urination port 3 side is mistakenly directed downward and urine leaks from the receiving port 4.

  Further, at the center of the lower surface of the attachment portion 2b of the handle 2, as shown in FIG. 3, a concave portion 12 having a substantially T-shaped cross section, into which the convex portion 9 of the urinal body 1 is slidably fitted, is provided in the front-back direction. Is formed. The handle 2 is attached to the urinal body 1 by fitting the projection 9 into the recess 12. As shown in FIG. 4, a wide groove 13 is provided at a predetermined position on the rear side of the concave portion 12 of the handle 2 so as to lock the locking portion 10 of the convex portion 9. By locking the locking portion 10 in the groove 13, detachment of the handle 2 from the urinal body 1 is prevented.

  As shown in FIG. 5, a mounting hole 31 is formed in an annular shape on the end surface of the cylindrical portion 30 provided on one end side of the receiving port 4. An inward convex portion 32 is formed in an annular shape on the inner surface located outside the mounting hole 31, and an outward convex portion 33 is formed in an annular shape on the inner surface located on the inner side, and the outward convex portion 33 is the inward convex portion. It is arranged slightly behind from 32. The urination port 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 31, and the receiving port 4 is attached to the urinal body 1. As shown in FIG. 6, two annular bulges 34 and 35 are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the urination port 3 at a predetermined interval in the tube axis direction. When the receiving port 4 is fitted into the urination port 3, the annular bulging portion 34 on the distal end side engages with the inner part of the mounting hole 31 of the receiving port 4 as shown in FIG. On the other hand, the outward convex portion 33 of the mounting hole 31 is fitted to the inner surface of the other annular bulge portion 35, and the outer surface of the annular bulge portion 35 is engaged with the inward convex portion 33. As a result, the receiving port 4 is securely and firmly attached to the urination port 3. For this reason, the situation that the receiving port 4 is carelessly detached from the urination port 3 and urine leaks hardly occurs. Furthermore, since the sealing performance between both members is greatly improved, it is possible to satisfactorily avoid leakage of urine from the attachment portion.

  Further, in order to ensure good adhesion to the body during urination, the left and right side surfaces on the other end side of the receiving port 4 are cut out in a substantially semicircular shape. Further, a semicircular urine port 36 is provided in the cylindrical portion 30 of the receiving port 4 as shown in FIG. The wall surface 37 located at the upper portion is provided with attachment portions 38 having attachment holes (not shown) at both ends. Note that a lid (not shown) is attached to the receiving port 4 when the urinary organ is not used.

  In addition, a check valve 39 is provided in the urine port 36 so that urination stored in the urinary body 1 does not leak outside from the urine port 36 of the receiving port 4. The check valve 39 includes a substantially semicircular valve main body 40 for closing the urine port 36, and a mounting piece 41 disposed opposite to the back surface of the valve main body 40 with a predetermined interval in the width direction. It has become. A shaft portion (not shown) protruding from the inside of each mounting piece 41 is rotatably fitted into the mounting hole of the receiving port 4 and mounted.

  The urinary apparatus according to the present embodiment is configured as described above. Next, the case where the amount of urination is measured using this will be described.

  First, while grasping the grip portion 2a of the handle 2, the receptacle 4 is drawn so as to come into contact with the body, and the pubic portion is made to face the urination port 3 to urinate. Urination is usually performed with the lower surface portion 1b of the urinal body 1 facing downward. The urination thus made is stored in the urinary body 1 through the urination port 3 by opening the check valve 39 of the receiving port 4.

  When measuring the amount of urination stored in the urinary body 1, for example, the handle 2 may be gripped so that the lower surface portion 1 b of the urinary body 1 is kept downward. In this case, since the first scale 6 is configured to be readable with the lower surface portion 1b of the urinal body 1 facing downward, the first scale 6 can be read to measure the amount of urination.

  Therefore, there is no need to rotate the urinal body 1 to stand up like before, and the series of operations from urination to measurement of the amount of urination can be easily performed even in a lying state. . This simplifies the measurement operation of the patient who is the user and reduces the burden on the user.

  The measurement of the amount of urination is not necessarily performed while holding the urinal body 1 as described above. For example, a normal placement state in which the lower surface portion 1b of the urinal body 1 is placed on a desk or table. You can go on. According to this, the amount of urination can be measured in a state in which the urinary body 1 is stabilized, compared to the conventional case where the urinary body 1 is placed in a standing state on a table or the like. There is no need to consider the situation of urination leakage due to rollover of 1.

  Furthermore, since the urinary apparatus according to the present embodiment includes not only the first scale 6 but also the second scale 7 provided perpendicular thereto, the lower surface portion 1b of the urinal body 1 is directed downward, for example. When the first scale 6 cannot be read in the state and the urination amount cannot be measured, the urination amount can be measured by reading the second scale 7 with the urinal body 1 standing up as before. That is, it is possible to respond flexibly according to the situation at that time, and the usability is very good.

  Further, as described above, even during urination performed with the lower surface portion 1b of the urinal body 1 facing downward, it is not impossible for the user or the like to read the first scale 6, and the convenience thereof is improved. Will improve.

  Furthermore, the urine stored in this way does not leak outside by the check valve 39 of the receiving port 4. Therefore, the user can easily store the urinary device in a predetermined position while holding the handle 2.

  Further, it is possible to urinate while grasping the handle 2 without touching the receiving port 4, and it is possible to suppress the occurrence of urine leakage by the mounting structure of the receiving port 4 and the urine opening 3, the use of a check valve 39, and the like. In this case, there is an advantage that hygienic use becomes possible.

  Furthermore, since the entire configuration of the urinary apparatus according to the present embodiment is extremely simple, there is a practical advantage that it can be manufactured easily and inexpensively.

  In the above embodiment, the scale 5 is constituted by the first scale 6 and the second scale 7, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the scale 5 may be composed of only the first scale 6. In short, the scale 5 may be configured so as to be readable in a state where the lower surface portion 1b of the urinal body 1 is directed downward.

  Further, the scale 5 is not limited to the linear shape as in the above-described embodiment, and may be formed in a dot shape as shown in FIG. 7, for example. According to such a dotted scale 5, it is possible to perform reading in a state where the lower surface portion of the urinary body 1 is faced downward and a state where the urinary body 1 is erected. In addition, there is an advantage that the appearance is also neat

  Further, the scale 5 may be provided on the urinal body 1 as in the above-described embodiment, or may be separately printed or provided with a seal.

  Further, a numerical value 8 representing the amount of urination formed on the side portion of the scale 5 may be provided if necessary, and may be omitted.

  Furthermore, the urinal body 1 may be provided with a flat mounting surface at the rear end portion in preparation for measuring the amount of urination in the standing state.

  Moreover, although the urinal equipped with the female receptacle 4 has been described, the object of the present invention is not limited to this. FIG. 8 shows the present invention applied to a male urinary organ. Other than the difference in the shape and the like on the opening side, there is no significant difference, and members having substantially the same configuration are given the same numbers as in the above embodiment. Also in this case, the same effect as the case of the female urinary organ can be obtained. However, the receiving port 4 may be provided as necessary and is not necessarily an essential part of the present invention. A lid 50 is attached to the opening of the receptacle 4 and is attached when not in use.

  In addition, the specific configuration such as the shape of each part of the urinal body 1, the handle 2, the urination port 3 and the receiving port 4 can be arbitrarily changed within the intended scope of the present invention.

  As described above, the present invention is useful for a urinary tract that is used in a state where a sick person or an elderly person who is difficult to walk and cannot go to the toilet sleeps in a bed.
