Description
本発明は、便を採取するための採便棒、及びその採便棒を備えた採便キットに関する。 The present invention relates to a stool collection stick for collecting stool and a stool collection kit including the stool collection rod.
従来から、採便用の器具としては、採便の際に手が便に触れないようにするために棒状の器具（採便棒）が用いられている。通常、採便はそのような採便棒の先端を便に突き刺して、それを便から抜くことによって行われるため、当該器具の先端には採便しやすくなる種々の加工が施されている。 Conventionally, as a stool collection device, a stick-shaped device (stool collection rod) has been used to prevent a hand from touching the stool during stool collection. Usually, stool collection is performed by piercing the tip of such a stool collection stick into the stool and pulling it out of the stool. Therefore, the tip of the device is subjected to various processing to facilitate stool collection.
特許文献１には、採便棒の一端に綿球が設けられ、他端にスプーンが設けられた構成が開示されている。このような構成により、固形の便のみならず液状の便も採取できるようにしている。また、特許文献２には、採便棒の先端の外周に４つの溝が設けられた構成が開示されている。このような構成により、採便器具を便に突き刺すことによって便が溝内に入り込み、容易に所定量の便を採取できるようにしている。 Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration in which a cotton ball is provided at one end of a stool collection rod and a spoon is provided at the other end. With such a configuration, not only solid stool but also liquid stool can be collected. Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a configuration in which four grooves are provided on the outer periphery of the tip of the stool collection rod. With such a configuration, the stool enters the groove by piercing the stool with a stool collecting device, so that a predetermined amount of stool can be easily collected.
上記特許文献１及び２に記載の採便棒のように、便を容易に採取できるような加工が施されているものが知られているが、一度に十分な量の便が採取できない場合もある。従って、容易且つ安定的に所定量以上の便を採取できるような採便棒が未だ求められている。 It is known that the stool collection rods described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 are processed so that stool can be easily collected, but a sufficient amount of stool cannot be collected at one time. is there. Therefore, there is still a demand for a stool collection rod that can easily and stably collect a predetermined amount or more of stool.
本発明は、前記の問題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、容易且つ安定的に十分な量の便を採取できるようにすることにある。 The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to enable easy and stable collection of a sufficient amount of stool.
前記の目的を達成するために、本発明では、採便棒の先端部に互いに軸方向に離間した複数の凸部を設け、それらの凸部のうち中央に配置された凸部の突出長さを最も長く形成し、その凸部から先端側及び基端側に向かって複数の凸部の突出長さを順次短くなるように形成した。 In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a plurality of convex portions axially separated from each other are provided at the tip of the stool collection rod, and the protruding length of the convex portion arranged at the center of the convex portions is provided. Was formed to be the longest, and the protruding lengths of the plurality of convex portions were sequentially shortened from the convex portions toward the tip end side and the proximal end side.

Further, in the stool collection rod according to the present invention, the protrusion length of the convex portion arranged in the center is the longest among the plurality of convex portions, and the tip side and the proximal end of the stool collection rod are formed from the convex portion arranged in the center. Since the protruding lengths of the plurality of protrusions are arranged so as to be sequentially shortened toward the side, the stool can be efficiently collected both when the stool collection rod is pierced into the stool and when the stool is extracted. A sufficient amount of stool can be collected. More specifically, when the stool collection stick is pierced into the stool, the stool is in contact with the stool from the convex portion arranged at the most tip to the convex portion arranged at the center among the plurality of convex portions. Is pulled into the groove between them. In addition, when the stool collection rod is extracted from the stool, the stool is brought into contact with the stool from the convex portion arranged at the most proximal side to the convex portion arranged at the center among the plurality of convex portions. Pull into the groove between them. Therefore, according to the configuration of the stool collection rod according to the present invention, as described above, stool can be efficiently collected both when the stool collection rod is pierced into the stool and when the stool is extracted.

Further, as shown in FIG. 1, the convex portion 15 is formed so as to cross the plate-shaped portion 14, and as shown in FIG. 3, each set of convex portions symmetrically arranged with the plate-shaped portion 14 interposed therebetween. The portions 15 are formed so that they are substantially circular in plane.
なお、本実施形態において、複数の凸部１５は板状部１４の両面に５つずつ形成されているが、これに限らず、例えば３つずつ、４つずつ、６つずつ又は７つずつでも構わない。また、凸部１５は、板状部１４に別体として接着されていてもよいが、板状部１４と一体に成形されていてもよい。また、本実施形態では板状部１４を平面略楕円状としたが、これに限らず、例えば平面略円状、又は平面略四角形状若しくは平面略六角形状等の平面略多角形状であってもよい。また、本実施形態では、板状部１４の両面に形成される複数の凸部１５を平面略半円状としたが、これに限らず、例えば平面略多角形状であってもよい。 In the present embodiment, the plurality of convex portions 15 are formed on both sides of the plate-shaped portion 14, but the present invention is not limited to this, for example, 3 each, 4 each, 6 each, or 7 each. But it doesn't matter. Further, the convex portion 15 may be adhered to the plate-shaped portion 14 as a separate body, but may be integrally formed with the plate-shaped portion 14. Further, in the present embodiment, the plate-shaped portion 14 has a substantially elliptical plane shape, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a substantially circular plane shape, a substantially quadrangular plane shape, or a substantially hexagonal plane shape may be used. Good. Further, in the present embodiment, the plurality of convex portions 15 formed on both surfaces of the plate-shaped portion 14 have a substantially semicircular plane shape, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a substantially polygonal shape may be used.
また、本実施形態では、板状部１４に複数の凸部１５を設けることにより、複数の溝部１６を形成したが、これに限らず、例えば楕円体や直方体等の形状に成形された先端部１２の外周に、例えば切削加工等によって複数の溝部１６を形成することによって、結果的に複数の凸部１５が形成されてもよい。 Further, in the present embodiment, a plurality of groove portions 16 are formed by providing a plurality of convex portions 15 on the plate-shaped portion 14, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the tip portion formed into a shape such as an ellipsoid or a rectangular parallelepiped is not limited to this. By forming a plurality of groove portions 16 on the outer periphery of the 12 by, for example, cutting, a plurality of convex portions 15 may be formed as a result.
また、本実施形態では、図３（ａ）に示すように１つの板状部１４の両面に複数の凸部１５を設けたが、図３（ｂ）に示すように、２つの板状部１４を断面十字状に交差させて、それらの間の４箇所の空間に複数の凸部１５を設けてもよい。このとき、複数の凸部１５はそれぞれ、例えば扇形状に形成され、２つの板状部１４同士の間の４箇所に形成された凸部１５が組み合わさって略円形状に形成されることが好ましい。なお、２つの板状部１４を断面十字状に交差させる代わりに、同様の形状を一体的に形成しても構わない。 Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3A, a plurality of convex portions 15 are provided on both sides of one plate-shaped portion 14, but as shown in FIG. 3B, two plate-shaped portions are provided. 14 may be crossed in a cross section, and a plurality of convex portions 15 may be provided in the four spaces between them. At this time, each of the plurality of convex portions 15 is formed in a fan shape, for example, and the convex portions 15 formed at four positions between the two plate-shaped portions 14 may be combined to form a substantially circular shape. preferable. Instead of intersecting the two plate-shaped portions 14 in a cross section, a similar shape may be integrally formed.
上述のように、本実施形態では、先端部１２に設けられた板状部１４と複数の凸部１５と複数の溝部１６とにより採便棒１０の採便部が構成されている。採便棒１０を用いる場合、当該採便部を便に突き刺して抜き取ることにより便が採取される。本実施形態の採便棒１０では、採便部が上記構成であるため、採便棒１０の便への突き刺し時と、便からの抜き取り時との両方において便を効率的に採取できるので、十分な採便量を確保できる。具体的に説明すると、採便棒１０の便への突き刺し時においては、複数の凸部１５のうち先端側の第１の凸部１５ａ、第２の凸部１５ｂ及び中央に配置された第３の凸部１５ｃまでが順次便と接触しながら便をそれらの間の溝部１６内に引き込む。また、採便棒１０の便からの抜き取り時においては、複数の凸部１５のうち基端側の第５の凸部１５ｅ、第４の凸部１５ｄ及び中央に配置された第３の凸部１５ｃまでが順次便と接触しながら便をそれらの間の溝部１６内に引き込む。従って、本実施形態に係る採便棒１０の構成によると、上述の通り、採便棒１０の便への突き刺し時と、便からの抜き取り時との両方において便を効率的に採取できる。 As described above, in the present embodiment, the stool collection portion of the stool collection rod 10 is composed of the plate-shaped portion 14 provided at the tip portion 12, the plurality of convex portions 15, and the plurality of groove portions 16. When the stool collection stick 10 is used, stool is collected by piercing the stool collection portion into the stool and pulling it out. In the stool collection rod 10 of the present embodiment, since the stool collection portion has the above configuration, stool can be efficiently collected both when the stool collection rod 10 is pierced into the stool and when the stool is extracted from the stool. A sufficient amount of stool can be collected. Specifically, when the stool collection rod 10 is pierced into the stool, the first convex portion 15a on the tip side, the second convex portion 15b, and the third convex portion 15 arranged at the center of the plurality of convex portions 15. The stool is drawn into the groove 16 between them while the convex portions 15c of the above are in contact with the stool in sequence. Further, when the stool collection rod 10 is taken out from the stool, the fifth convex portion 15e on the proximal end side, the fourth convex portion 15d, and the third convex portion arranged in the center among the plurality of convex portions 15. Up to 15c draw the stool into the groove 16 between them, sequentially contacting the stool. Therefore, according to the configuration of the stool collection rod 10 according to the present embodiment, as described above, stool can be efficiently collected both when the stool collection rod 10 is pierced into the stool and when it is withdrawn from the stool.
図１及び図２に示すように、軸部１１には、先端部１２（採便部）に隣接する位置に、軸部１１の他の部分よりも細い細部１１ａが設けられている。採便時に採便棒１０を便に突き刺すが、通常、その際に先端部１２のみならず軸部１１の先端部側まで突き刺すこととなる。このため、軸部１１の径が先端部１２の凸部１５の径よりも大きいと、採便棒１０の抜き取り時に第５の凸部１５ｅ、第４の凸部１５ｄ及び第３の凸部１５ｃと便とが接触し難くなるおそれがある。従って、軸部１１の径は、凸部１５のそれぞれの径よりも小さいほうが好ましいが、軸部１１全体を細くすると強度が小さくなって折れ等の破損のおそれがあるため、採便時に便と接触する軸部１１の先端側の一部のみに細部１１ａが設けられることが好ましい。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the shaft portion 11 is provided with a detail 11a thinner than the other portion of the shaft portion 11 at a position adjacent to the tip portion 12 (stool collecting portion). The stool collection rod 10 is pierced into the stool at the time of stool collection, but usually, at that time, not only the tip portion 12 but also the tip portion side of the shaft portion 11 is pierced. Therefore, if the diameter of the shaft portion 11 is larger than the diameter of the convex portion 15 of the tip portion 12, the fifth convex portion 15e, the fourth convex portion 15d, and the third convex portion 15c are taken out when the stool collection rod 10 is pulled out. And stool may be difficult to contact. Therefore, it is preferable that the diameter of the shaft portion 11 is smaller than the diameter of each of the convex portions 15, but if the entire shaft portion 11 is made thinner, the strength may be reduced and damage such as breakage may occur. It is preferable that the detail 11a is provided only on a part of the tip end side of the shaft portion 11 in contact with the shaft portion 11.
また、軸部１１には、細部１１ａよりも基端側に軸部１１の軸方向に対して垂直な方向に突設された液止め部１１ｂが設けられている。液止め部１１ｂは後に詳説するが、採便棒１０を収容する容器の内径と同等の径を有する。 Further, the shaft portion 11 is provided with a liquid stop portion 11b projecting from the base end side of the detail 11a in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the shaft portion 11. As will be described in detail later, the liquid stop portion 11b has a diameter equivalent to the inner diameter of the container that houses the stool collection rod 10.
基端部１３には、図１、図２及び図４に示すように、長尺状の延長部材２０を着脱可能に接続できる接続部１３ａが設けられている。延長部材２０は、例えば両端が開口した円筒状の部材であり、延長部材２０の内径は基端部１３の径と同等の大きさに構成されている。また、接続部１３ａは凹凸形状によって構成され、基端部１３が延長部材２０の中に挿入されたときに、延長部材２０が基端部１３から容易に外れないように滑り止めの役割を果たす。 As shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 4, the base end portion 13 is provided with a connecting portion 13a to which a long extension member 20 can be detachably connected. The extension member 20 is, for example, a cylindrical member having both ends open, and the inner diameter of the extension member 20 is configured to be the same as the diameter of the base end portion 13. Further, the connecting portion 13a is formed by a concave-convex shape, and when the base end portion 13 is inserted into the extension member 20, the extension member 20 acts as a non-slip so that the extension member 20 does not easily come off from the base end portion 13. ..
延長部材２０を基端部１３に装着することにより、採便棒１０の長さを実質的に長くすることができるため、採便時に便が手に触れることを防止することができる。 By attaching the extension member 20 to the base end portion 13, the length of the stool collection rod 10 can be substantially increased, so that it is possible to prevent the stool from touching the hand during stool collection.
本実施形態では、延長部材２０として円筒状の部材を用いたが、これに限らず、採便棒１０の基端部１３と着脱可能に接続できる部材であればよい。 In the present embodiment, a cylindrical member is used as the extension member 20, but the extension member 20 is not limited to this, and any member that can be detachably connected to the base end portion 13 of the stool collection rod 10 may be used.
次に、本実施形態に係る採便棒を含む採便キットについて図５及び図６を参照しながら説明する。 Next, the stool collection kit including the stool collection rod according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.
図５に示すように、本実施形態に係る採便キット１００は、上記採便棒１０及び延長部材２０と、採便棒１０を収容可能な容器３０とを含む。容器３０は、例えば透明な樹脂製であり、蓋３１を有し、便を溶かすための液体３２を含む。従って、図６に示すように、採便した後に、用いた採便棒１０を容器３０内に入れて蓋３１をすることにより、採取した便を、安全且つ清潔に運搬可能となる。 As shown in FIG. 5, the stool collection kit 100 according to the present embodiment includes the stool collection rod 10 and the extension member 20, and a container 30 capable of accommodating the stool collection rod 10. The container 30 is made of, for example, a transparent resin, has a lid 31, and contains a liquid 32 for dissolving stool. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, by putting the used stool collection rod 10 in the container 30 and covering it with the lid 31 after collecting the stool, the collected stool can be safely and cleanly transported.
また、本実施形態に係る採便棒１０は、上述の通り、軸部１１に、容器３０の内径と同等の径を有する液止め部１１ｂが設けられているため、採便棒１０が容器３０内に収容されると、液止め部１１ｂは液体３２が外部に漏れることを防ぐ内蓋として機能する。 Further, as described above, the stool collection rod 10 according to the present embodiment is provided with a liquid stop portion 11b having a diameter equivalent to the inner diameter of the container 30 on the shaft portion 11, so that the stool collection rod 10 is the container 30. When housed inside, the liquid stop portion 11b functions as an inner lid that prevents the liquid 32 from leaking to the outside.
また、本実施形態において、容器３０の側壁は可撓性を有する。このため、図５に示すように、延長部材２０が装着された採便棒１０を容器３０に入れた後、延長部材２０を採便棒１０から外す際に、容器３０の側壁のうち液止め部１１ｂが位置する部分を外側から挟むように押圧することで、容器３０の側壁を介して採便棒１０を保持できる。従って、この保持した状態で、延長部材２０を採便棒１０から引き抜くことによって、延長部材２０を採便棒１０から容易に取り外すことができる。 Further, in the present embodiment, the side wall of the container 30 has flexibility. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5, after the stool collection rod 10 to which the extension member 20 is attached is put into the container 30, when the extension member 20 is removed from the stool collection rod 10, the liquid stopper in the side wall of the container 30 is stopped. The stool collection rod 10 can be held via the side wall of the container 30 by pressing the portion where the portion 11b is located so as to sandwich it from the outside. Therefore, the extension member 20 can be easily removed from the stool collection rod 10 by pulling out the extension member 20 from the stool collection rod 10 in this holding state.
以上に説明したとおり、本実施形態に係る採便棒１０及びそれを備えた採便キット１００によると、採便棒１０の便への突き刺し時と、便からの抜き取り時との両方において便を効率的に採取できるため、容易且つ安定的に十分な量の便を採取できる。 As described above, according to the stool collection rod 10 and the stool collection kit 100 provided with the stool collection rod 10 according to the present embodiment, the stool is delivered both when the stool collection rod 10 is pierced into the stool and when the stool is removed from the stool. Since it can be collected efficiently, a sufficient amount of stool can be collected easily and stably.
