Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bedridden bed and a nursing method mainly used for nursing a bedridden elderly person who cannot move his / her body by himself.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art With the progress of an aging society, nursing care for bedridden elderly people has become a social problem. In the care of the bedridden old man, the most difficult work involves treating excrement that occurs as a physiological phenomenon and ensuring hygiene to prevent secondary deterioration associated with excretion.

[0003] Conventionally, in general, a bedridden elderly person wears a diaper, replaces it when excreted, wipes the anus and the pubic area with a wet towel, and sometimes takes a bath. Has been done.

[0004]

With respect to the diaper, it is necessary to raise both legs high and lift the hips together with the diaper both when putting it on and when taking it off. It takes a lot of power, and it is difficult for one person to do the work, and it is not only very troublesome, but also unclean. Also,
At that time, it was difficult to do the wiping work by myself.

When the area around the anus or genital area is wiped with a towel, if excrement is not wiped off sufficiently, that area will be inflamed,
I am in a tragic state while I am asleep. However, since the body cannot be completely wiped off, the body is washed cleanly by taking a bath, which is accompanied by more difficulty.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a bedridden bed and a nursing method in which excrement is automatically processed as it is, and moreover, the environment of the inner thighs such as the anus and the pubic area is well maintained.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a hole at the front end of the toilet bowl for accommodating a concave toilet bowl for receiving defecation and discharging at the center of the raised floor of the bed. , Standing up the inner crotch cup for covering the pubic area of the patient, and for this toilet bowl, a toilet tank connected to the outlet, and a cleaning device that sprays warm water toward the anus and pubic area after excretion, The bed for bedriding was constructed by equipping it with an air conditioner that dries wet after cleaning and forced exhaust, and their control devices.

Further, the present invention uses a toilet bowl having a concave shape for receiving and discharging defecation and having an inner crotch cup standing upright so that the front part of the patient's pubic area is covered. When the patient's bowel movements are detected by the device, it is sensed that hot water is sprayed toward the anus and genital area to wash it, and then the wetness is dried and forced evacuation is performed to improve the environment of the inner thigh. We constructed a bedridden nursing method that automatically controls the movements of.

[0009]

[Operation] Since the toilet bowl is attached to the patient, when defecation is performed, the excrement is received by the toilet bowl and discharged from the outlet, after which washing, drying, and ventilation are automatically performed. It

Since the inner crotch cup covering the anus and the pubic area is erected at the front end of the toilet bowl, even if hot water for washing is sprayed to the anus and the genital area inside the toilet bowl, it goes outside. It does not leak, and when dry air is injected, it effectively hits the spot. Further, in addition to preventing the inconvenience that a bad odor leaks to the outside, the suction of air directly reaches the inside of the toilet bowl to ensure the forced ventilation.

[0011]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

The drawing shows an embodiment in which a bed B for bedriding has a hole 2 in the center of the buttocks of a raised floor 1 and a toilet bowl 3 is stored therein. The toilet bowl 3 is equipped with the excretion tank 4, the cleaning device 5, the air conditioner 7, and their control device 8.

The toilet bowl 3 is provided with a toilet receiving recess 9 below the buttocks, and a discharge port 11 is opened downward at the rear end of the recess 9, and the wall of the recess 9 extends from the discharge port 11 to the left and right and forward. Is gradually higher, but the tail end receiving portion 12 is provided behind the recess 9 by a step. In addition, a towel 14 is placed on it so that it can be replaced, and the butt of the patient R is received by the towel 14. Reference numeral 16 denotes a bed sheet or a bed sheet.

A characteristic of the toilet bowl 3 is that an inner crotch cup 13 is erected at the center of the width of the front end of the recess 9. Since the inner crotch cup 13 is provided, various devices can be effectively equipped. Although the whole is molded from glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), it may be molded from ordinary plastic, synthetic rubber or the like. Especially, the inner crotch cup 13
With regard to (2), it is desirable to mold it with a soft or semi-rigid plastic or rubber so as not to hit the legs 18 strongly.

The inner crotch cup 13 is attached so as to prevent water and air from leaking, and is opened toward the pubic area and the concave portion 9 so as to cover the pubic area of the bedridden old man R at a position where it is sandwiched by the inner crotch, so to speak. It is formed into a cup shape. Further, around the toilet bowl 3, a collar portion 17 is provided so as to project around the hole 2 of the raised floor 1.

The excretion tank 4 is provided under the floor 1 and is connected to the excretion port 11 by a valve 19. But,
It can also be installed outdoors via a hose. Further, the valve 19 is provided with an electromagnetic valve 21 which is always closed, but when the excrement 20 is collected in the discharge port 11, it is sensed by the control device 8 for a fixed time (for example, 5 seconds).
The excrement 20 is opened and drops into the excretion tank 4 together with warm water for washing.

In the cleaning device 5, when a certain time elapses after the excretion is sensed by the control device 8 (for example, after 2 minutes),
It is designed to eject hot water, and for the nozzle,
A nozzle 5a directed to the anus and a nozzle 5b directed to the pubic area,
5b is provided. The hot water is jetted for about 1 minute, for example, and when it is stopped, the solenoid valve 21 is closed.

The air conditioner 7 is designed such that dry air is jetted from the jet port 7a opened inside the inner crotch cup 13 or air is sucked and exhausted. When closed, for example, by blowing dry air for 5 minutes, the anus, genital area, and the like that have been wet by washing are dried. Further, thereafter, ventilation is performed by suction intermittently or continuously.

The control device 8 is designed so that the above-mentioned work is automatically controlled by a computer. For the sensing function, the sensor 23,
By providing 24, the discharge of stool or urine and the accumulation of the excrement 20 are detected.

[0020]

As described above, according to the present invention, there are the following excellent effects.

Since the excrement of stool or urine is automatically discharged, it is not necessary to put a diaper on a patient such as a bedridden elderly person, and the heavy labor of replacing the diaper is released in nursing.

After excretion, hot water is sprayed onto the anus and genital area for washing, and after that, it is dried so that the environment of the anus, genital area and inner thigh is improved and inflammation of the skin is prevented. . Therefore, it is possible to rationally reduce the number of times of bathing, which requires a lot of labor.

The air in the bedroom can be kept clean because the odor in the toilet bowl is forced out. Since the above-mentioned work is automatically performed, the burden of nursing can be greatly reduced.
