Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] This invention relates to a device for expelling feces from the body.

For example, one way for a sick person to defecate on the bed is to place a toilet bowl on the bed and sit on it.

This method can be used for mildly ill patients, but cannot be used for seriously ill patients, who dispose of their feces through diapers.

Catheters suitable for each purpose are used to expel other foreign substances that occur in the body, not just stool, but conventional catheters do not necessarily allow all foreign substances to be expelled smoothly.

A device has been developed in which a drainage tube is inserted into the body, a liquid is supplied from the tip of the drainage tube, and foreign substances inside the body are sucked out together with the liquid.

(U.S. Pat. No. 3,929,126, Publication Utility Model Publication No. 33-2
(Japanese Patent Publication No. 019, Japanese Patent Publication No. 32-10791, Japanese Patent Publication No. 50-1317, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 52-31297) However, even if foreign matter is sucked out from the body, even if it is inhaled into the exhaust pipe, In the case of hard lumps such as fecal impaction, they tend to become clogged in the excretory tube, making it extremely difficult to expel them smoothly, requiring the evacuation tube to be repeatedly inserted and removed from the body.

This idea was developed to eliminate this drawback.
Insert a drainage tube into the patient's body, supply lubricating fluid to the tip of the drainage tube, suck the feces into the drainage tube together with this lubricating fluid, and use a forced agitation member inside the drainage tube to forcibly expel it without clogging. The important purpose of this invention is to
It can be used by almost all patients, allows defecation without leaking the feces inside the body, and the lubricating liquid allows the feces to be expelled easily, smoothly, and safely without clogging. To provide a stool evacuation device that can be easily operated without requiring much effort.

Examples of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The device shown in FIG.
The apparatus includes a lubricant supply means for discharging the lubricant from the tip of the discharge pipe 1, and a suction member for sucking out foreign matter and the lubricant from the discharge pipe.

The discharge tube 1 does not collapse even if the inside is sucked, but preferably has flexibility to the extent that it can be bent freely and easily inserted into the body through the anus, etc., and foreign substances such as feces can be smoothly removed. The inner diameter is large enough to pass through, for example, 0.5 to 3. −
It is a hose.

As shown in FIG. 3, the discharge pipe 1 has a spiral coil spring 3 built therein as a forced stirring member, and the rear end of this coil spring passes through the pipe wall in an airtight manner. A handle 8 is formed by bending the protruding part outside the tube into a crank shape, and the handle 8 is turned by hand to smoothly transfer the stool in the discharge tube 1.

Further, the discharge pipe 1 shown in FIG. It extends to the rear end.

After the air bag 9 is inserted into the body, air is pumped through the air tube 10 to inflate it and prevent the discharge tube 1 from being removed from the body.

When removing the discharge tube 1 from the body, the air inside the air bag 9 may be discharged from the air tube 10 and the tube may be narrowed to a small size.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the supply means passes through a liquid hole 2 bored along the inside of the discharge pipe 1 to supply the discharge pipe 1.
Supply lubricant to the tip of the

Therefore, the liquid hole is connected via a tube to a lubricating liquid tank 4 suspended at a location somewhat higher than the discharge pipe 1, and the liquid is fed into the body through the tube in a gravity flow manner.

The lubricating fluid is preferably heated to body temperature before being supplied.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable to heat the lubricating liquid flowing down from the lubricating liquid tank 4 with a heat exchanger 5 before supplying the lubricating liquid.

In the supply means shown in FIG. 3, a flexible insertion tube 11 is extended so that the liquid hole 2 protrudes from the tip of the discharge tube 1. It supplies lubricating fluid to swell, soften, and dissolve hard stools in the body, making it easier to expel.

The suction member includes a vacuum tank 6 to which the rear end of the exhaust pipe 1 is connected in an airtight manner, and a vacuum pump 7 for discharging the air within the vacuum tank 6.

In this way, those that inhale foreign matter into the vacuum tank 6,
Compared to pumps that directly expel feces, foreign objects can be sucked out with constant suction power.

In particular, by maintaining the pressure inside the vacuum tank within a certain range, the power to suck out feces is further stabilized, and the suction power does not temporarily become stronger and cause harm to the human body, and the state of the feces inside the body is maintained. It has the effect of allowing smooth suction at all times.

The in-body feces evacuation device according to this invention is configured as described above, that is, the tip of the evacuation tube is inserted into the body, and while lubricating fluid flows out from the tip, the feces inside the body are removed into the evacuation tube by the suction member. Since it is designed to be inhaled and expelled, when using this toilet, you can defecate in a comfortable position while lying on the bed instead of sitting on the toilet like with conventional toilets. It can be used even by people with severe medical conditions, and since it sucks out the feces that accumulate in the body together with the lubricant, it can be excreted from the body very smoothly.

Furthermore, a noteworthy feature of this invention is that even in the case of considerably hard stool, the forcible agitation member in the discharge pipe forcibly stirs it together with the lubricating liquid, allowing it to be discharged without clogging the discharge pipe.

Therefore, hard stools such as fecal impaction can be smoothly expelled.

Furthermore, since feces are sucked out of the body through a discharge tube, there is no chance of feces leaking outside and staining your bedding or underwear.Furthermore, it can be used simply by inserting the discharge tube into the body, making it easy to use. However, when it comes to handling feces and the like, it is convenient for the patient as well as the nurse to handle the process himself/herself.

Furthermore, even though the suction member sucks out the feces, lubricating fluid is supplied from the tip of the discharge tube, so the opening at the tip of the discharge tube that is inserted into the body creates strong negative pressure, which can pose a danger to the human body. This has the effect of safely discharging foreign matter, etc.
