Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a urinal, and particularly to a urinal in which a urine collection means is provided in the urinal body.

[Prior Art] Urine collection is performed during medical examinations and the like, but in the past, urine collection was left entirely to the person receiving the urine collection, which was extremely inconvenient.

Therefore, it is possible to provide a urine collection port on the wall of the urinal, receive urine from the person being collected through the urine collection port, flow it out through a flow path outside the urinal body, and collect it in a urine collection container. This can be considered as a countermeasure.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] However, simply providing the urine collection port on the wall of the urinal causes the following problems.

Cleaning of the channel that drains urine out of the urinal body is extremely insufficient. This means that washing water mainly flows down to the wall of the urinal from the top, but
This is because a predetermined amount of washing water is distributed on the wall surface, so a small amount of washing water flows into the small urine collection port, and the amount of washing water introduced into the urine collection channel becomes insufficient.

If the urine collection channel is not sufficiently cleaned, urine from the person who collected the urine from the previous time may remain and be mixed with the urine, which prevents the correct collection of urine from only the person being collected.

Insufficient cleaning tends to cause the generation of odors and the like, and in particular, if the cleaning water is insufficient, the flow path becomes a dry surface and the odors tend to be strong.

If the amount of washing water supplied to the urinal body is increased in order to sufficiently wash the urine collection channel, the amount of water used will increase, which is uneconomical.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention provides a urinal in which an opening for collecting urine is provided on the inner wall surface of the urinal body, and urine is collected through a flow path (first flow path) through the opening. , a cleaning water supply path to this flow path is separately provided.

In addition, in the present invention, a pedestal is provided at the end of the first flow path, and a urine collection container can be placed on this pedestal. Further, a second flow path is provided for guiding excess urine and wash water from above the pedestal into the urinal body.

[Function] In the urinal of the present invention, it is possible to supply a sufficient amount of washing water into the flow path for urine collection, so that the urine of the person being collected can be collected correctly. Moreover, it is hygienic and odor generation is prevented. Furthermore, since there is no need to increase the amount of flushing water supplied into the urinal body, the amount of flushing water used is only slightly increased, which is economical.

[Example] Examples will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIGS. 1 and 2 are views showing a urinal according to an embodiment of the present invention, with FIG. 1 being a front view and FIG. 2 being a side sectional view. Reference numeral 1 denotes a urinal main body, to the upper part of which a flush valve 2 for supplying flush water is connected. A urine collection port 3 is provided on the inner wall surface of the urinal 1 at the lower portion of the urine flow. It is provided integrally with the main body 1.

In this embodiment, the first flow path 4 extends laterally on the back surface of the urinal body 1, and its tip protrudes from the side surface of the urinal body 1 toward the side, and extends downward in a substantially L-shape. It is bent towards. A pedestal 5 is integrally provided with the urinal body 1 opposite to the terminal end of the first flow path 4, and a flow path for returning the liquid on the upper surface of the pedestal 5 into the urinal body 1. (Second flow path)
6 is provided to connect the upper surface of the pedestal 5 and the inner surface of the side portion of the urinal body 1.

Reference numeral 7 in FIG. 2 is a water supply chamber for receiving wash water from the flush valve 2, and 8 is a discharge port for urine and wash water.

However, in this embodiment, the flash valve 2
A pipe 9 is installed to connect the secondary side of the urine collection port 3 to the ceiling portion on the back side of the urine collection port 3.

To collect urine using the urinal according to the embodiment configured as described above, after placing a container (not shown) on the pedestal 5, the person receiving urine urinates toward the urine collection port 3. Just go. The urine that has passed through the urine collection port 3 is
The water flows from the channel 4 into the container on the pedestal 5 and is collected. Note that the excess urine overflows the container and is returned to the urinal main body 1 through the second flow path 6.

To clean the first flow path 4, the pedestal 5, and the second flow path 6 (in this specification, these are sometimes referred to as urine collection flow paths), the flush valve 2 is
Press button 2a. As a result, part of the cleaning water that has passed through the flush valve 2 is transferred from the pipe 9 to the first
The first flow path 4, the pedestal 5, and the second flow path 6 are sufficiently washed in this order. In addition,
Such washing is preferably performed prior to urine collection.

In this embodiment, since the pipe 9 is connected to the secondary side of the flush valve 2, when the inner wall surface of the urinal main body 1 is cleaned, the first flow path 4 etc. are also automatically cleaned. This makes it possible to prevent forgetting to clean the urine collection channel. Further, the cleaning operation is also extremely easy.

In this embodiment, as shown in the figure, a receiving member 10 is provided protruding from the lower edge of the urine collection port 3, so that the urine of the person to be collected can be easily received into the urine collection port 3. Furthermore, an eave-like member 11 is provided on the upper edge of the urine collection port 3 so as to cover the receiving member 10, and the washing water flowing down the inner wall surface of the urinal main body 1 through the water supply chamber 7 is This prevents the liquid from flowing into the flow path 4.

3 and 4 show the structure of a urinal according to a second embodiment of the present invention, with FIG. 3 being a front view and FIG. 4 being a side sectional view. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the piping 9 is branched from the primary side of the flash valve 2, and a manually operated valve 12 is provided in the middle of the piping 9. This is different from the embodiment shown in FIG. In the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, by opening and closing the valve 12, the first flow path 4, the pedestal 5, and the second flow path 6 can be cleaned when desired. It is possible to supply an extremely sufficient amount of washing water to these urine collection channels.

Furthermore, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 3 and 4,
Even if the flush valve 2a is operated, the urinal body 1
Since the washing water flowing down the inner wall surface does not flow into the first flow path 4, even if the flush valve 2a is pressed by mistake during urine collection, the collected urine will not be diluted by the washing water. Therefore, it is possible to collect urine correctly.

5 and 6 are diagrams showing the structure of a urinal according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5 is a front view;
FIG. 6 is a side sectional view. The embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 differs from the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in that the flow path 13 is provided integrally with the urinal body 1 instead of using the pipe 9. . In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, when the button 2a of the flush valve 2 is pressed, the cleaning water is supplied to the water supply chamber 7.
A part of the urine flows into the first flow path 4 from the opening 7a through the flow path 13 to clean the urine collection flow path. In the embodiments shown in Figs. 5 and 6, there is no need for construction work to install piping, etc.
It has the advantage that construction is extremely easy. In addition, if the flow path 13 is manufactured integrally with the pottery that constitutes the urinal body, there is almost no difference in the manufacturing effort, and Figures 1 to 4, which are connected to the metal fittings,
This embodiment is more advantageous than the illustrated embodiment not only in construction costs but also in manufacturing costs.

In addition, in any of the above embodiments, the second flow path 6 opens on the side surface of the inner wall surface of the urinal 1 body, and the effect is that the flow of washing water or urine passing through the second flow path 6 is extremely good. There is.

Although the above embodiment relates to a stall-type urinal, it is clear that the present invention can be applied to urinals of various shapes such as a wall-mounted type or a wall-mounted stall type. Although the back surface of the urinal main body 1 is provided so as to extend laterally, the first flow path 4 may be provided to extend in other directions such as a right angle direction from the back surface of the urinal main body 1. good. Further, in the present invention, the first flow path 4, the pedestal 5, the second flow path 6, etc. may be configured not to be integral with the urinal main body 1, but to be connected with metal fittings or the like.

[Effects of the device] As is clear from the above explanation, the present device can supply a sufficient amount of washing water to the urine collection flow path, prevent urine from being mixed with other urine samples, and ensure correct urine collection. It can be done easily. In addition, it is possible to prevent odor from being generated from the urine collection channel, making it extremely hygienic.
