Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention utilizes a heat source with low power consumption.
To provide an energy-saving diaper heat storage that efficiently and uniformly heats the diaper to be used next, allows always using a warm diaper, and also allows the use of warm towels when changing the diaper. It is.

Infants, especially infants up to 1 to 2 years old, soil their diapers throughout the night by defecating and urinating.
Dirty diapers need to be changed frequently, but especially in the winter, changing diapers with cold diapers in the middle of the night can cause discomfort to infants and may cause them to catch a cold.

For this reason, conventionally, diapers are warmed by placing them in a kotatsu, but heating and keeping diapers warm with a kotatsu poses a sanitary problem, and a kotatsu with a power of several hundred watts is used overnight. However, considering the actual usage of diapers, it would be very uneconomical.

In other words, in general, several pairs of diapers are prepared in advance, taking into account the frequency of urination and the time required for washing and drying, but diapers are used one at a time (or one at a time). Yes, but usually 2 pieces 1
Used in groups. ), and although this varies depending on the physical condition of the infant, it is usually every few hours. Furthermore, once a certain number of dirty diapers have accumulated, they are usually washed, dried, and stored in bulk, and then used again one set at a time.

Therefore, as a heat source for heating and keeping diapers warm, depending on the frequency of changing diapers, for example, one set (one or two) to be used next should be used every few hours.
It is thought that it is sufficient to heat and keep the diaper at a temperature similar to body temperature, preferably slightly higher than body temperature, and it is also reasonable and effective for energy saving.

The diaper heat storage according to the present invention was developed based on these considerations, and has an internal space large enough to store multiple pairs of diapers stacked together.
A heat source with a temperature adjustment mechanism is provided above the inside of the box body having a door on the front side, a first reflecting plate is provided above the heat source, and a first reflector is provided in front of the heat source, and a first reflection plate is provided at the top of the inside of the box body on the door side toward the front side. The present invention is characterized in that a second reflective plate is provided which is inclined upwardly, and a recessed portion with a lid for storing wet towels is provided in a part of the top plate of the box body.

According to the above configuration, due to the presence of the first reflective plate, one set of diapers located in the uppermost layer (the diaper to be used next time) is uniformly heated over the entire surface thereof,
Furthermore, the second reflective plate prevents heat from escaping to the door side, and at the same time, it is possible to warm the towel placed in the recessed part of the top plate for storing the towel. In addition, since the second reflective plate is inclined so that it is positioned upward toward the front, it is easy to take out the warm diaper located at the top layer.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes the interior of two upper and lower compartments with an open front surface formed by a top plate 2 made of steel plate, etc., left and right side plates 3, 4, a bottom plate 5, an intermediate plate 6, and a back plate 30. It is a storage shelf for infants formed into a box with a space, and has doors 7 and 8 at each front opening. A compartment is formed in the storage 10 for dirty diapers. The diaper heat storage 9 has an internal space in which a plurality of pairs of diapers can be stacked and stored, and this internal space includes a mesh shelf 12 in the vertical middle part and a mesh basket 14 with legs 13 in the lower part.
are arranged, and these net shelves 12 and net baskets 14 can be taken out to the front. A well-known heat source 11 with a temperature control mechanism (for example, a thermostat, a nichrome wire heater, or a semiconductor such as a positive temperature coefficient thermistor) is provided in the upper part of the interior of the diaper heat storage 9, and is connected to the ceiling surface, that is, the ceiling surface. A first reflecting plate 16 is provided on the lower surface of the plate 2 to reflect heat rays radiated upward from the heat source 11 toward the net shelf 12 . Further, in this embodiment, the power required for the heat source 11 is 80 to 100 W, and the set temperature in the diaper warming storage 9 is 50 to 60°C. 15 is
This is a protective net stretched between the heat source 11 and the net shelf 12, and is provided to prevent burns caused by touching the heat source 11 or damage to the heat source 11 or other objects by touching the heat source 11. . Reference numeral 17 denotes a second reflector plate provided in front of the heat source 11 across the front end of the top plate 2 and the front end of the protective net 15. The second reflective plate 17 can efficiently heat the recessed part 18 for storing wet towels, which is provided with a lid 19 provided on a part of the top plate 2, and also prevents the heat rays from the heat source 11 from escaping in the direction of the door 7. As shown in FIG. 2, in order to prevent the inside of the diaper heating compartment 9 from heating and to efficiently heat the inside of the diaper heating compartment 9, and to make it easier to insert hands and diapers from the front,
It is provided in an inclined state so that it is located higher toward the front.

In addition, 20 is an ON/OFF switch for the heat source 11, 21 is a mesh shelf support piece fixed to the left and right side plates 3 and 4, 22 is a moisture release hole provided in the door 7,
Reference numeral 23 denotes a basket removably stored in the storage 10, into which dirty diapers are placed.

Therefore, when it is cold, such as at night in winter,
While turning on the switch 20 and activating the heat source 11, a suitable number of diapers and underwear to be kept warm are stacked on top of the net shelf 12, and the remaining diapers (after washing and drying in the open fire) are The towel is placed in the mesh basket 14, and a wet towel (not shown) is placed in the recessed portion 18. When an infant defecates or urinates and soils diapers or underwear, a second
The warm wet towel that efficiently absorbs the heat from the heat source 11 by the reflective plate 17 is used to wipe the dirty parts of the infant's body, and the diaper on the top shelf, that is, the net shelf 12
To take out the warm diaper or underwear from the top row that has been heated by the radiant heat from the heat source 11, and which has been heated uniformly and efficiently over the entire surface due to the presence of the first reflective plate 16, and to put it on the infant. I can do it.

In addition, when the top plate 2, left and right side plates 3, 4, bottom plate 5, intermediate plate 6, back plate 30, etc. are made of metal plates, each plate or a part thereof is
