Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a portable and disposable simple urination device which can be used for a small amount of time when it is difficult to use a public toilet such as being caught in a traffic jam on a highway.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a guide (mouth) and a bag have been used.
A urine collection container (Japanese Utility Model No. 3-19861 etc.) having a fitting fastener (synthetic resin chuck) for sealing in a bag body is expected to be used as a small portable urinal (toilet bowl) that is portable and disposable. It is becoming. For example, Japanese Unexamined Utility Model Publication No. 3-19861 discloses a soft synthetic resin low-foaming sheet formed in a substantially L-shape in side view as a guide in consideration of adhesion to a local area, and a synthetic resin thin film inside. A bag made of paper quality coated with a layer is used. The bag can seal urine by closing the fitting fastener. However, it is said that storing the polymer water-absorbing agent in this bag and solidifying the urine facilitates handling, which is preferable as a simple urination device.

[0003]

In the conventional simple urination device, as shown in the above-mentioned Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-19861, the guide is provided with a mounting edge with the bag above the fitting fastener.
The guide remains exposed even when the fitting fastener is closed. For this reason, there is a possibility that urine attached to the guide may stain the surroundings. In addition, it takes some time for the urine accumulated in the bag to solidify by the polymer water-absorbing agent, and there is a concern that the urine may leak before the fitting fastener is closed after using the simple tray. Therefore, the handling of the guide was reviewed to prevent the surroundings from being soiled, and to examine the structure of the guide and the bag so that urine did not leak until the fitting fastener was closed.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION As a result of the examination, what has been developed is a simple urination device comprising a bag body provided with a fitting fastener in an opening and a guide attached to the opening.
This is a simple urination device in which an attachment edge of a guide to a bag body is provided below a fitting fastener, and this guide can be freely taken in and out of the bag body. In this simple urination device, since the mounting edge of the guide is provided below the fitting fastener, the bag can be sealed while the guide is housed in the bag and isolated from the outside.

[0005] Further, in the same simple urination device, a weir is formed in the bag body inclined downward from the side edge, so that the path from the opening to the bottom is meandering. Since the urine entering the simple urination device reaches the bottom through a meandering path, the urine does not flow backward toward the opening even if the bag is slightly inclined. Urine is absorbed by this polymer absorbent when it is stored below the weir, for example at the bottom, but the swollen polymer absorbent absorbs out of the bag due to the meandering path. Never.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration when the simple urination device of the present invention is used, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a configuration after use of the simple urination device.

In the simple urination device of the present invention, the mounting edge of the guide with respect to the bag and the position of the weir with respect to the bag are important, and the material, size, shape, color and exterior design of the bag and the guide are important.
(Marking and painting), weir length, inclination, and number are free. In this example, as shown in FIG. 1, a guide 2 made of a synthetic fiber non-woven fabric having a synthetic resin film laminated on the outer surface thereof is thermally welded to a vertically long synthetic resin bag 1 immediately below a synthetic resin fitting fastener 3. To form a mounting edge 4, and weirs 5, 6, which are slightly downwardly inclined from the middle to the lower side, are provided alternately and vertically in two stages by heat welding to the bag 1. The synthetic resin film laminated on the outer surface of the guide 2 has a function of preventing urine adhering to the inner surface of the guide 2 from oozing out. Further, by using a synthetic resin material for each of the bag 1, the guide 2, and the fastener 3, the production of the bag 1, the attachment of the guide 2 to the bag 1, and the formation of the weirs 5, 6 in the bag 1 can be performed. All can be realized by heat welding, facilitating the production of simple urination devices. In addition, if the bag is colored or the exterior is designed, the state after use becomes invisible from the outside, and the shame of the user can be alleviated.

The upper edge of the guide 2 is formed in a gentle concave shape so that the user can contact the local part closely. The fitting fastener 3 is located at a position slightly lower than the opening 7 of the bag 1, and the mounting edge 4 of the guide 2 is provided at a position further lower than the fitting fastener 3. Size and shape that can sufficiently protrude from Further, the guide may be attached to the bag body in a state where it is projected in advance, or may be attached to the bag body in a state where it is housed in reverse, and may be projected from the opening when used. When stored in a bag, it is small and easy to handle as a simple urination device. The guide may be creased so that the guide can be taken in and out of the bag.

The weirs 5, 6 meander the path leading to the bottom 8 in order to prevent the urine accumulated in the bottom 8 of the bag 1 from leaking out of the opening 7, and are seen in FIG. In the case of such linear weirs 5, 6, it is preferable to alternately protrude from both side edges of the bag 1. In order to prevent the urine from being stopped by the weirs 5 and 6 and preventing urine from flowing toward the bottom 8, it is preferable that each of the weirs 5 and 6 be slightly inclined downward. As a result, urine surely flows into the bottom portion 8, and if the urine flows back toward the opening portion 7, the urine is stopped by the weirs 5 and 6. In this example, a polymer water absorbing agent 9 is stored in the bottom 8.

When the user uses the simple urination part of this embodiment to add a small amount of urine, the urine enters the bag 1 through the guide 2 and is meandered while being guided to the weirs 5 and 6. It reaches the bottom 8 and is absorbed by the polymer water-absorbing agent 9. The polymer water-absorbing agent 9 absorbs moisture many times as much as its own accumulation, but swells greatly at this time. In the simple urination device of this example, the lower weir 6 is provided sufficiently far from the bottom so that the swelling of the polymer water-absorbing agent 9 is not hindered. After use, the user pushes the guide 2 into the bag 1 through the opening 7 in a manner to bend, and closes the fitting fastener 3. As is clear from FIG. 1, the fitting fastener 3 is located outside the guide 2, so that it is not stained with urine. FIG. 2 shows a state in which the guide 2 is stored and the bag body 1 is sealed.

As long as the polymeric water-absorbing agent still has an allowable amount and the bag body is not filled with urine, the simple urination device of the present invention can be reused. As it is, the user throws away the simple urinal. At this time, the guide 2 that has touched the urine is in the bag body 1 and the portion from the fitting fastener 3 to the opening 7 is not wet with urine. The urine does not stain the surroundings even after the urine. In consideration of discarding after use as described above, it is preferable to mix a deodorant 10 together with the polymer water absorbing agent 9 in the simple urination device.

[0012]

According to the simple urination device of the present invention, the guide can be housed in the bag after use and sealed in the bag together with urine, so that the user and the surroundings are not stained, and the fitting fastener is provided by providing the weir. Until it closes, urine can be prevented from leaking. Such improvements mainly in the structure of the bag do not require a major change in the production line of the conventional simple urination device, and the cost increase is minimized. In contrast, the degree of improvement during use is large, and the present invention can be said to be cost-effective.
