Definitions

  • the invention relates to a body cleaning device with an outlet opening directed against the body surface to be cleaned for a detergent supply and with a suction device which again absorbs the detergent.
  • Such a device is known for example from DE-OS 1 816 838.
  • Devices of this type are suitable for cleaning or decontamination of body surfaces, in particular in the case of bedridden persons or people who have come into contact with a toxic substance. It is essential in this cleaning that the supplied cleaning agent, for example a cleaning liquid or a cleaning foam, comes into intensive and long-lasting contact with the surface of the body without the cleaning liquid and the dissolved dirt or poisonous substances becoming uncontrolled can reach the surroundings or remain on the body surface.
  • the supplied cleaning agent for example a cleaning liquid or a cleaning foam
  • the outlet opening for the cleaning liquid is sealed by means of a sponge close so that the liquid is applied over this sponge with a grazing movement, after which it is taken up again by a suction opening surrounding the sponge in a ring.
  • a body cleaning device of the type described at the outset in that the outlet opening for the cleaning agent is arranged in a housing at a distance from the body surface to be cleaned, in that the housing has a seal on its outer edge for contact with the Has body surface and that the inlet openings of the suction are arranged at the end of the housing near the body in the housing wall.
  • a central housing is thus provided which lies with its lower edge in a sealed manner against the body surface and into which the cleaning agent freely enters at a distance from the body surface.
  • the underside of the housing is open, so that the cleaning agent can reach the body surface in the form of a jet and wash around it intensively and over a defined period of time before the cleaning agent is suctioned off again at the edge of the cleaned surface.
  • the formation of a housing overlapping the area of the body surface to be cleaned also enables the formation of turbulence in the flow, for example when an appropriately powerful jet of cleaning agent is admitted, so that cleaning is promoted in this way without an actual device instrument Cleaning area is in contact with the body surface, the only contact of the device with the body surface is made by the seal.
  • the outlet opening is arranged so obliquely with respect to the contact surface defined by the lower edge of the housing that the cleaning medium strikes the body surface obliquely.
  • This oblique impact direction gives the cleaning agent a component directed tangentially to the body surface, so that a flow of the cleaning agent along the body surface on the one hand and turbulence formation in the closed housing on the other hand are stimulated, by means of which the cleaning effect is substantially increased .
  • the outlet opening is arranged in the bottom of the housing, which is only open on the side facing the body.
  • the detergent supply is separated from the actual rinsing area, so that it is ensured that unused detergent first reaches the body surface and cleans it before suction takes place.
  • a short-circuit effect in which the supplied cleaning agent is sucked off practically immediately after it emerges from the outlet opening, can thereby be avoided.
  • the housing is cylindrical and is inclined in relation to the bearing surface in the same way as the jet of the cleaning agent emerging from the outlet opening.
  • the beam then emerges practically parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing.
  • the outlet opening is preferably adjacent to the lower side wall of the housing.
  • the housing is double-walled and that the annular space formed thereby forms an annular suction opening at the lower end of the housing.
  • the annular space is preferably connected to a suction pipe, which in a preferred embodiment is inside receives a cleaning agent line leading to the outlet opening in the housing.
  • the seal is designed such that it has openings for drawing in ambient air. On the one hand, this leads to the suction process being improved, and on the other hand, it prevents the housing from sucking onto the surface of the body. By sucking in the false air, the housing can be guided in a simple manner over the surface of the body to be cleaned, nevertheless, by sucking in the false air from all sides, it is avoided that cleaning agent escapes.
  • the seal is designed as a bristle ring, and in particular if the bristle ring is constructed in several rows and the bristle packs of adjacent rows are offset from one another.
  • the last-mentioned design results in a labyrinth-like seal which, on the one hand, does not hinder the sucking in of false air, but which on the other hand makes the undesired escape of the cleaning agent considerably more difficult.
  • the seal can also be made of foam.
  • the seal is fixed to an annular support which is releasably attached to the lower edge of the housing. This makes it possible to use a separate seal for each person, which can preferably be sterilized before use.
  • the carrier can be pushed onto the housing in a sliding guide, for example.
  • the seal surrounds a cross-section in the area of the contact surface which is larger than the cross-section of the housing at its lower edge, and that the annular space in the housing is extended by guide walls into the region of the carrier near the seal is.
  • FIG. 1 a perspective view of a body cleaning device with the bristle carrier removed;
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view taken along line 2-2 in
  • FIG 3 is a sectional view taken along line 3-3 in Figure 2.
  • a suction line 1 to a conventional suction device, not shown in the drawing.
  • a supply line 2 for a flowable cleaning agent, for example a cleaning liquid mixed with detergents or a cleaning foam.
  • the feed line 2 is fed by a device, also not shown in the drawing, this device can be part of the suction device, for example.
  • a pot-shaped housing 3 which is double-walled and thus encloses an annular space 6 between an outer wall 4 and an inner wall 5.
  • the housing 3 is cylindrical, the side walls enclose an essentially rectangular interior 7 and are rounded at the edges.
  • the housing 3 is closed by a base 8, which is also double-formed, on the opposite side the housing 3 is open.
  • the suction line 1 is in a manner not apparent from the drawing directly connected to the annular space 6, while the supply line 2 for the cleaning agent leads to an outlet opening for the cleaning agent in the form of a nozzle 9, which in the inner wall 5 in the Area of the bottom 8 is arranged and the outlet direction is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the housing 3.
  • the housing 3 ends in a plane running obliquely with respect to the longitudinal axis of the housing 3, so that the upper side wall 10 of the housing is longer than the lower side wall 11.
  • the latter carries an outwardly directed flange 13, onto which an annular, frame-like carrier 14 is releasably pushed.
  • This carrier 14 extends the housing 3 towards the underside, the cross section enclosed by the carrier 14 being larger than the cross section of the housing 3 in the region of the lower edge 12.
  • the cross section of the frame-like carrier 14 which remains free as a result is at the top by means of a Cover 15, so that the pushed-on carrier 14 is closed on all sides with respect to the housing 3.
  • the annular space 6, which ends in the region of the edge 12 of the housing 3 in the form of a suction opening 16 which surrounds the interior 7, can be extended by guide walls 17 into the edge region of the carrier 14, so that the actual suction opening through these guide walls 17 (shown in dash-dotted lines in FIG. 3) in the edge region of the carrier 14.
  • the carrier 14 is equipped with a bristle ring 18 in which a plurality of bristle packs 19 are arranged side by side in several rows.
  • the arrangement is such that bristle packs 19 from adjacent rows are laterally offset from one another, so that the spaces between bristle packs in one row are covered by a bristle pack in the adjacent row. This results in a labyrinth-like seal of the interior 7 surrounded by the bristle ring 18.
  • a separate carrier with its own bristle ring is pushed onto the housing 3 for each person to be cleaned or decontaminated. Thereafter, the housing 3 with the bristle ring 18 is placed on the body surface to be cleaned, the carrier 14 being held at a distance from the body surface to be cleaned by the bristle ring 18.
  • the supply of the cleaning agent is switched on.
  • the tangential component of the cleaning agent striking leads to a flow of the cleaning agent along the body surface and thus to a very intensive rinsing before the cleaning agent in the edge region of the carrier 14 reaches the region of the suction opening 16 and is suctioned off again.
  • the effectiveness of the cleaning is also increased in that the cleaning agent is swirled in the interior 7, this swirling being supported by the oblique impact of the cleaning agent jet on the body surface.
  • Cleaning is particularly effective when the nozzle 9, as in the exemplary embodiment shown, is not arranged centrally in the base 8, but is laterally offset such that it is located in the region of the lower side wall 11. This ensures that the emerging detergent is deflected practically exclusively by an angle that is smaller than 90 ° and that ensures that the liquid flows along over a large area of the body surface. A deflection of the cleaning agent in the opposite direction, at which the cleaning agent would have to be deflected through an angle that is substantially greater than 90 °, is largely excluded.
  • the cleaning agent reaches the body surface with a relatively strong tangential component, there is no danger that the cleaning agent will emerge laterally from the area delimited by the bristle ring, since on the one hand the suction opening 16 is arranged upstream of the bristle ring, while on the other hand through the Sucking in ambient air through the bristle ring 18 ensures that the inflowing liquid is actually completely deflected into the suction opening 16 and cannot get out through the bristle ring.
