Abstract

The invention concerns a device for applying an enema consisting of curved tubing (1), wherein an orifice (2) for positioning against the anal sphincter or insertion into the rectum is provided on or can be attached to the short end of the tube (1), the longer part of the tube serving as a handle (5) to hold the device with one hand, and a pneumatic bulb (4) which is connected to the tube (1). Squeezing the pneumatic bulb pumps liquid found therein through the tube and orifice into the bowel.

Description

Vorrichtung zum hygienischen Duschen oder Applizieren eines KlistiersDevice for hygienic showering or application of an enema
Es sind verschiedene Vorrichtungen für diesen Zweck bekannt . Meist weisen sie eine Kanüle von mehreren Zentimetern Länge und wenigen Millimetern Dicke auf, die nur eine kleine Mündung aufweist. Diese Kanüle steckt in einem Gummibalg.Various devices are known for this purpose. They usually have a cannula several centimeters long and a few millimeters thick, which has only a small mouth. This cannula is in a rubber bellows.
Der Nachteil einer solchen Vorrichtung besteht darin, dass die Anwendung umständlich ist, fremde Hilfe benötigt und Verletzungsgefahr besteht . Als alltägliche Anwendung aus Hygienegründen ist sie deshalb wenig geeignet.The disadvantage of such a device is that the application is cumbersome, requires outside help and there is a risk of injury. It is therefore not very suitable as an everyday application for hygiene reasons.
Es ist deshalb die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung zum hygienischen Duschen und/oder Applizieren eines Klistiers zu schaffen, die so einfach, sicher, sauber und bequem anzuwenden ist, dass sie nach dem täglichen Stuhlgang eine optimale Hygiene bewirkt und für das Wohlbefinden eine unentbehrliche Routinesache wird.It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a device for hygienically showering and / or applying an enema which is so simple, safe, clean and convenient to use that it brings about optimal hygiene after daily bowel movements and a well-being becomes an indispensable routine thing.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss durch die Merkmale gemäss dem kennzeichnenden Teil von Anspruch 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features according to the characterizing part of claim 1.
Die Vorrichtung wird in der Regel hinter dem Rücken übergeordnet gehandhabt und benötigt nur eine kurze Einübungszeit . Bei Verstopfung ist eine Vor- und Nachanwendung angezeigt und bringt dennoch viel Zeitgewinn. Im Normalfall ist absolut keine fremde Hilfe nötig. Eine innere Verletzungsgefahr ist bei prak- tisch allen Mündungsstückformen bei sorgfältiger Anwendung unwahrscheinlich, denn sie ist kurz und dick.The device is usually used behind the back and only needs a short training period. In the case of constipation, a pre- and post-application is indicated and still saves a lot of time. Normally no outside help is necessary. An internal risk of injury is table with all mouthpiece shapes is unlikely if used carefully, because it is short and thick.
Besondere Ausführungsformen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen definiert .Particular embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
In der Zeichnung zeigt :The drawing shows:
Fig. 1 eine erfindungsgemässe Vorrichtung mit sich konisch erweiterndem Mündungsstück, undFig. 1 shows an inventive device with a conically widening mouthpiece, and
Fig. 2 eine Variante eines MündungsStückes .Fig. 2 shows a variant of a muzzle piece.
Die Vorrichtung nach Figur 1 besitzt eine trichterförmige Mün- düng 2. Diese Mündungsform, vorzugsweise als Aufsatz ausgebildet, ist bei Hämorrhoiden besonders geeignet.The device according to FIG. 1 has a funnel-shaped mouth fertilizer 2. This mouth shape, preferably designed as an attachment, is particularly suitable for hemorrhoids.
Als Variante zeigt Figur 2 ein Mündungsstück mit speziell kurzer Kanüle 6. Sobald die Hämorrhoiden verschwunden sind, kann nach Belieben die Kanüle 6 verwendet werden (statt der Mündung 2) .As a variant, FIG. 2 shows a mouthpiece with a particularly short cannula 6. As soon as the hemorrhoids have disappeared, the cannula 6 can be used as desired (instead of the mouth 2).
Die Vorrichtung weist als Kern der Erfindung ein hakenförmiges Rohr 1 auf . Die Hakenform des Rohres 1 wird dabei durch einen eigentlichen Rohrbogen oder aus zueinander abgewinkelten Rohrabschnitten gebildet. Das kürzere Hakenende ist als spezielles Mündungsstück 2 einstückig ausgeformt oder angebaut, das dazu bestimmt ist, am Schliessmuskel aufgesetzt und leicht ange- presst zu werden. Hierzu ist die Mündung, z.B. trichterförmig, sich konisch erweiternd oder verjüngend ausgebildet. Die eigentliche Mündung ist rund oder oval geformt, so dass sie beim Anpressen formschlüssig und anatomisch korrekt anliegt. Das andere bzw. längere Ende des hakenförmigen Rohres 1 ist mit einem Pumpbalg 4 versehen. Ein Handgriff 5 ermöglicht eine erleichterte Handhabung der Vorrichtung.The core of the invention is a hook-shaped tube 1. The hook shape of the pipe 1 is formed by an actual pipe bend or from angled pipe sections. The shorter end of the hook is molded or attached in one piece as a special mouthpiece 2, which is intended to be placed on the sphincter and pressed lightly. For this purpose, the mouth is, for example, funnel-shaped, flared or tapered. The actual mouth is round or oval shaped, so that it fits positively and anatomically correctly when pressed on. The other or longer end of the hook-shaped tube 1 is with a Provide pump bellows 4. A handle 5 enables easier handling of the device.
Figur 2 zeigt eine alternative Ausführung des Mündungsstückes, welche anstatt einer trichterförmigen Form eine stumpfe, etwa fingerdicke, z.B. 3 - 6 cm lange Kanüle 6 am kürzeren Ende des Rohres 1 aufweist. Sie ist vorne gerundet und hat somit eine stumpfe Front 7 und weist gegebenenfalls auch seitliche Aus- trittsδffnungen 8 auf. Durch diese Formgebung ist sie sicherer und damit leichter als spitze Kanülen in den Schliessmuskel einführbar. Figure 2 shows an alternative embodiment of the mouthpiece, which instead of a funnel-shaped form a blunt, about finger-thick, e.g. 3 - 6 cm long cannula 6 at the shorter end of the tube 1. It is rounded at the front and thus has a blunt front 7 and optionally also has lateral outlet openings 8. This shape makes it safer and therefore easier to insert into the sphincter than pointed cannulas.
