Abstract

An enema syringe for ease of defecation, an enema syringe auxiliary and an injector and an enema method using them; the enema syringe comprising one member, that is, an enema syringe auxiliary (1) to be inserted into the anus and soiled, and the other member, that is, an injector, wherein the enema syringe auxiliary (1) is made from a material, such as gelatin, directly disposable into a toilet stool after use and is so constructed as to be separable from the injector by means of a separating mechanism (10) for direct disposal into a toilet stool without soiling fingers, thereby eliminating such conventional disadvantages that an enema syringe is difficult to handle, especially, a fig type enema syringe is liable to soil hands due to excrement-mixed liquid leakage while an enema is being injected or when a container is pulled out of the anus.

Description

In many cases, a large container is used, and water or hot water at about body temperature is often used as an enema, and may also be used as an intestinal washer for eliminating fecal impaction. They are of the syringe type, and of the larger type, the hanging type, which uses the pressure of the liquid head to inject the enema. The part to be inserted into the anus may be inserted as it is with a syringe type.In the case of the hanging type, a rubber tube is attached to the end of the flow tube that extends from the liquid container, and this is inserted into the anus. The tip tube may be washed and used repeatedly, and when worn out, only the tip can be replaced. There are also disposable items in their entirety, in which case they are disposed of under sanitary control.

However, since the first class of simple enema uses pharmaceuticals, if it is used regularly, the medicinal effect will gradually decrease, and a larger amount of enema will be required. In cases such as when the second and third enema injections are required at the same time, during injection or when the tip of the container is removed from the anus, a part of the infusate mixed with dirt may cause the anal insertion part of the enema container and the anal There were some items that were difficult to use in terms of hygiene and handling, such as leaking from gaps and soiling fingers, etc., and disposal of containers whose tips after use were contaminated with feces.

For example, when using a fig type enema, the user inserts the tip of the enema into the anus into the anus and injects it by pressing the enema container by hand. When removing from the anus, a part of the injection liquid mixed with dirt leaks from the gap and soils your hands, etc.If it is necessary to use two enemas, handle it hygienically Some items were difficult to use.

The second category of enema devices, which are stored in large containers and use hot water at about the body temperature, are more suitable for regular use than simple enema devices, but have drawbacks. Not available for syringe type or hanging type Difficulty of using it alone by one skilled person, and unsanitary practice of reusing all components to access the anus, cleaning contaminated parts and reusing them Even if the contaminated part was disposable, it was necessary to perform sanitary management and throw it in a trash can.

The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional enema device, and allows the user to adjust the amount of liquid to be injected at the time of injection, without soiling the hands and the like due to leakage of enema fluid. The aim is to provide a simple enema device that can be easily used at home or on the go. Another object of the present invention is to provide an enema device with enhanced selectivity for the type of liquid to be injected. The present invention also provides several types of infusion devices that are less susceptible to leakage of the enema during infusion of the enema, and that are hygienic and easy for unskilled personnel. Furthermore, the purpose is to provide an enema device for assisting the elderly to defecate independently or assisting the care recipient in the home care. Disclosure of the invention

In order to achieve the above object, the present application uses an enema assisting device that is attached to the anus until defecation, instead of the current enema method in which the anus is only introduced and removed during the injection of the enema. Invented the enema method. This enema assisting device is composed of a biodegradable material that can be discarded in the toilet at the same time as defecation after use, and is provided in the flow path from the enema liquid supply port at one end to the intestinal liquid supply port at the other end. An infusion device for injecting enema is connected to this enema aid with a check valve. Preferably, the injecting device is separated and cut off from an injection tube for supplying the enema to the enema aid, and the injection tube and the enema aid after the infusion of the enema into the intestine is completed. And an enema fluid container, a manual pump or an electric pump for delivering the enema fluid to the infusion tube, and an enema fluid container. In the present invention, the enema assisting device is inserted into the anus once, and once worn, maintains its state until the patient defecates with defecation. The body of the enema aid is made of, for example, paper or pulp. In this case, it is desirable that the surface on the anus insertion side be coated with a thin biodegradable plastic to maintain the waterproofness for a short time. The inside of the enema aid may be formed from biodegradable plastic from the tip of the round projection into the anus to the supply port of the enema, and may be a tube having a check valve inside. This check valve prevents the backflow of contaminated liquid from the intestine. The _c- infusion tube, which is preferably provided with a paper sanitary separator so that the hand does not come into direct contact with the buttocks near the anus when inserting the enema aid into the anus, is preferably Its outer diameter is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the supply port of the enema aid. The material is preferably a hard plastic with flexibility. Preferably, the user inserts the tip of the infusion tube about 10 mm into the supply port of the enema aid immediately before use, and uses the infusion tube due to the elasticity of the biodegradable plastic used in the supply port. Adhere the tip of the to the enema aid.

After use, a remote separation mechanism hygienically separates the enema aid from the infusion tube. The remote separation mechanism is preferably constructed by placing a remote separation tube having an inner diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the injection tube on the outer side of the injection tube. Further, a ring for increasing the pressing area may be formed at the distal end of the remote separation tube on the side of the enema aid to make it thicker. In addition, a lever (remote separation lever) separately connected to the injection tube and the remote separation tube is provided on the near side, for example, about 30 cm away from the enema aid. By operating the lever to slide the injection tube and the remote separation tube, the separation between the enema aid and the injection tube is performed.

The injection tubing was further connected with a piston pump. It is connected to a manual pump or a small electric pump using dry batteries. The above-mentioned pump can be integrated with the enema container, but the enema container can also be made into a portable plastic bag.

First, the user prepares water corresponding to the volume of the enema or the hot water up to the body temperature according to the empirical advice of the individual or the advice of the doctor in advance, and various enema solutions, and fills the enema container. Next, enter the toilet, manually connect the enema aid and the injection tube, and insert the enema aid into the anus by itself. After inserting the enema aid, sit on the toilet and operate the pump to gradually insert the enema into the intestine. After injecting an amount that feels enough to defecate and prompting you, quickly operate the remote separation lever to separate and cut the infusion tube and the enema aid, and drop the end of the tube into the toilet bowl. Collect quickly so that it is not available. Then, when the user applies abdominal pressure for defecation, the enema aid is expelled from the anus, and defecation proceeds. Finally, the work is completed by flushing the toilet with washing water.

Subsequently, other closely related inventions are disclosed. In the present invention, the above-mentioned invention is further developed, and the structure of the enema assisting device inserted into the anus is changed to be formed integrally with the tube for injecting the enema, and the portion to be inserted into the anus is injected into the anus. As a result, the swelling slightly increased and the thickness of the swelling slightly increased, thereby increasing the adhesion to the anus when the enema was injected. In addition, the connection terminal of the disintegrable enema fluid injection tube was changed to allow a wider range of enema fluids and infusion means to be selected, so that a commercially available enema could be used, and the anus after the enema fluid was injected A separation method using a safety cutter was used to cut the inserted enema aid and the injection tube.

In the present invention, since the enema aid inserted into the anus and the enema liquid injection tube are formed as a single body, the overall structure is simplified. Preferably, the distal end of a single enema injection tube made of a degradable resin is The structure is covered with a molded pulp that has been treated to withstand waterproofing between the surfaces, and the enema liquid injection tube that touched the buttocks near the anus from the sanitary separator paper described above is also discarded upon defecation. It became possible, and both sanitary and image quality were improved. In addition, as the function of preventing the backflow of the enema assisting device during enema, the tip of the degradable resin tube at the anus insertion part is shrunken or a short valve tube is put on the tip, which is necessary. Accordingly, it was found that this could be achieved by providing a pressure-operated valve-like throttle in the middle of the tube. Since the part inserted into the anus slightly expands when the enema is injected, the adhesion between the anus and the enema aid during operation is increased, and the possibility of fluid leakage from the gap is greatly reduced.

Furthermore, as a method of separating the enema aid inserted into the anus from the infusion tube, a method of cutting it off from the middle with a safe cutter is used as a means for injecting the enema. Various means such as a manual pump, a small electric pump, and a commercially available enema container were made possible. In addition, by cutting the injection tube at the part that touches the anal buttocks and discarding it simultaneously with defecation, hygiene management and maintenance have been improved.

Subsequently, still another invention is disclosed. In the present application, first of all, for sanitary treatment during and after use of the enema device, of the components of the existing enema device, the part that is inserted into the anus and contaminated is made of a different material, The structure is such that it can be separated from the enema liquid container and the injection device. In addition, instead of existing liquid medicines, it is possible to use water or hot water at about body temperature, and even a small amount of edible oil, as an enema liquid. In the present application, the part inserted into the anus is called an enema assisting device, and its mechanical properties, that is, those that are flexible and can be bent by hand, are tube-shaped and inflexible by hand. Those that collapse when bent are called pipe-shaped enema aids. The shape and the material that can be discarded as they are in the toilet after use have come into contact with moisture, causing the shape to collapse. Material, pulp-like material with disintegration with time, various biodegradable plastics and various food materials as biodegradable, gelatin as water-soluble or hydrated swellable An enema assisting device was constructed by applying material properties such as polyvinyl alcohol, so that it could be discarded in the toilet after use.

For ease of use, when removing the enema aid from the anus during or after use of the enema, or when disconnecting the injection device and the enema aid after injecting the enema and leaving the enema aid in the anus until defecation In addition, in order to prevent the liquid filled in the intestine from leaking back to the outside of the anus or to prevent leakage, the material and meat of the enema assisting device are utilized by utilizing the hydrated swelling properties of gelatin and the like. The thickness and shape are devised, the enema aid is inserted into the anus, and the mechanical strength of the enema aid decreases after the enema is infused, and it changes to a more flexible tube, and the anal sphincter Part of the enema aid is crushed and thinned by the pressure, and at the same time, the internal flow path is also collapsed to provide the function of preventing backflow of the enema fluid filled in the intestine and the function of preventing leakage when removing the enema aid. did. There is also a difference between the strength of the fluid channel on the center side of the enema aid and the outer side that contacts the intestinal mucous membrane, the center side is hardened, the strength at the time of insertion of the anus is secured, and the outer side is softened. We invented a product with increased adhesion to the mucous membrane. In addition, as a result of studying the structural characteristics of the human body, organs that open and close only when used in the human body, such as the urethra and the anus, are not points but closed lines when closed. It has a shape, and when it starts to open, its cross section perpendicular to the tube direction is not circular but rather elliptical. Therefore, it can be said that the enema aid has a cross section of a shape similar to the shape characteristics of the anus, so that it is more closely attached to the anus. At present, in most of the enema devices on the market, the shape of the part to be inserted into the anus is basically circular, but in the present application, the above-mentioned leakage of the enema is more effective. To prevent the anal insertion direction An enema aid has an insertion part with an elliptical vertical cross section. In the same manner, in the existing simple enema device, the liquid leakage can be reduced by adopting the cross-sectional shape of the present application.

Before inserting the enema aid into the anus and injecting the enema fluid into the infusion device used for the enema aid, a part of the gas that fills the rectum or sigmoid colon and obstructs defecation is removed. A hole for exhaust is made in a part of the pipe that constitutes the flow path in order to discharge to the outside, and the outer surface of the pipe and its inner surface are covered with a pipe that is insulated so that it can slide. By injecting the enema into the exhaust passage by opening and closing the exhaust passage by sliding the pump, and injecting the enema solution, we invented an injection device. In order to take advantage of the property of being discarded in the toilet as it is after the use of the enema aid, in the present application, the connection between the infusion device and the enema assist device is made by placing the enema assist device on the connection pipe of the infusion device. A slide release mechanism is provided on the outer circumference of the connection pipe so that it is not necessary to touch and remove the enema aid directly with the finger after use, and operate this slide mechanism. As a result, the contaminated enemas that have been introduced into the anus and contaminated can be pushed out and removed without directly touching them. As a simple method of operating the slide mechanism, a pump is used in a manual injection device in which a container and a pump are integrated and an enema is injected into the intestine by pressing with a finger. By providing a ring-type push-out mechanism for the enema assisting device inside the pump and arranging the ring-type push-out mechanism to simultaneously push out and operate at the final stage of the injection of the pump, particularly the enema assisting device and the injecting device The idea was that the stroke in the final step of injecting the enema into the injection device could also be used as the operation to separate the enema aid without having to be aware of the slide operation for withdrawal. In addition, in order to increase the degree of freedom, two operating methods were devised for the slide mechanism that allows the infusion device and the enema aid to be detached from the enema aid and a force distant place. The first is a slash Two tubes whose outside diameter is smaller than the other inside diameter are overlapped concentrically, and the tip of the inner tube protrudes from the tip of the outer tube so that the flow of the enema assisting device After injecting the enema solution, slide the outer tube until it is flush with the inner tube, and pull out the inner tube attached to the connection port of the enema aid. The second is to use the pressure of the liquid as a means to disconnect and connect the enema aid and the injection device, and to drive the toner in the ultra-compact cylinder By operating a driving means connected to the cylinder by a pressure flow path, the piston is operated so as to be pushed out, and the injection device and the enema assisting device are detached. Is the way.

In addition, in order to use a flexible and somewhat long enema aid for the purpose of supporting self-sustaining defecation or for caregivers, pulp that has disintegration over time by containing water after infusion of the enema is completed. Or, use a material that is degradable over time and soluble over time to crush a part of the flow path of the enema aid and stop the flow of liquid. An injecting device was devised in which a cutter for cutting the device was provided at the connecting point of the injecting device. In addition, for home care use, an enema assisting device to be inserted into the anus is made of at least two tubes made of a flexible and swellable material such as gelatin or polyvinyl alcohol, and the ends of which are bundled together. Washing of the sigmoid colon, mainly for bedridden patients, by injecting hot water at about the body temperature from one side and discharging gas, stool, and water from the other into the intestine from the other side. An enema aid for the intestine was devised.

Safety is the most important factor in enema devices, but two points are noted in this application. As a first point, the present application recommends hot water as an enema and intestinal wash, but there are few problems if all users are sure to keep the temperature around body temperature, but depending on the situation, By mistake of this, If you use hot water whose temperature is beyond the safe range for the human body, or try to use hot water at a dangerous temperature due to malfunctions caused by using an injection device of another system There are cases. The use of liquids at such temperatures can cause thermal injury, low-temperature burns, etc. in the anus and intestine, which can cause serious damage. Therefore, a safe upper limit temperature is set for the human body, and if a liquid exceeding this temperature is to be used as an enema or enema wash, injection will be performed above a certain temperature by a valve mechanism using a shape memory alloy. Or a safety system such as an infusion pump that does not work due to electrical control using a thermostat, closing a valve in the middle, or bypassing high-temperature liquid to the toilet. Came up with a solution.

The second point is the injection pressure of the enema. Manual injection of enema is small in volume and relatively safe, but power-driven liquids with large liquid volumes have no track record of use. You have to think from the perspective of using Therefore, in the present application, the hanging type, that is, the container for the enema is placed at a position higher than the anus, and the enema is injected by the difference in water pressure. Mechanization was performed with reference to the injection method. By setting the maximum pressure for safe infusion of enema to about millimeters or centimeters in a water column, referring to the existing hanging-type enema, it is possible to reduce The required strength is required. Similarly, in the case of an enema assisting device, it is also necessary to roughly determine how long the liquid can be continuously injected after the start of the enema injection. Therefore, an injecting device that injects enema by injecting enema by injecting enema by using the restoring force of the panel as a power means that does not require a pressing action with the fingers when injecting the enema. In order to further reduce fluctuations in the enema fluid infusion rate due to fluctuations in the panel force, a valve with a flow rate adjustment function was installed in the flow path of the injection device. In addition, in the case of an injection device with a large enema volume using a small electric pump, A more secure constant-pressure pump that can adjust the discharge pressure by controlling the rotation speed without using a constant displacement pump was proposed.

In the present application, taking into account both user's ease of use and safety, one of the eases of use is the enema of a hot water washing device or toilet seat for toilets, which has become extremely popular in recent years. An interface was devised for use as a source of hot water as a liquid and intestinal wash. Here, regarding other existing proposals for remodeling Toilet's hot water washer, there have been various proposals for a hot water enema-type toilet seat applying the nozzle mechanism of Toilet's hot water washer. At present, none of them has been put into practical use. They used a mechanical mechanism to insert the enema into the anus, and basically lacked situational judgment. That is, the user moves during the enema to determine how to detect the position of the anus in the human body, how to determine the angle of entry into the anus, and how to determine the depth of insertion into the anus. In some cases, this may be a costly risk, such as what to do with this measure, if you have an anus disease, or how to deal with individual and physical differences in data. There were also many problems in terms of work. Therefore, in this application, we selected only the method of using the hot water and sending and receiving the signal of opening and closing of the hot water from the hot water washer and manually inserting the enema aid into the anus. Therefore, in this application, as a safety measure, when the injection pressure of the enema fluid temporarily rises above the set value. It is supplied from the hot water washer to prevent the pressure in the flow path from rising momentarily. A method was developed to prevent instantaneous high pressure by urgently discharging the amount of water equivalent to the excess pressure of hot water into the toilet bowl. This is because the discharge pressure of the hot water pump of the existing hot water washer differs from the pressure and control system required for the injection device for enema.

In addition, a magnet-type suction connection method, which is easy to connect and disconnect with respect to the inside of the injection device and the connection with the hot water washer, was adopted. In addition, to improve usability, powder medicines for enemas, edible oils, and other liquids for enema are placed in the middle of the channel of the injection device. A part to which a body medicine or the like can be added was provided so that the medicine or the like could be injected into the intestine with hot water at the time of enema. The status of constipation varies widely, but in particular, constipation in which stool has dehydrated and solidified from the sigmoid colon to the vicinity of the rectum and has adhered or adhered is mostly determined to occur during defecation. The enema may not be injected into the back. In such cases, the stool that has adhered or adhered to the rectum may be removed with a finger from the anus to the rectum, usually with the aid of rubber gloves called stool removal, but blood discharge from the intestine often accompanies the discharge. Was. Therefore, in the present application, a simple electromagnetic vibration device is provided on a part of the handle of the injection device, and for a patient as described above, a holding device for the injection device that oscillates a low-frequency vibration within a safe range. Using a hand, insert a vibrating enema aid into the anus, dehydrate and solidify the tip in the intestine, and contact the stool that adheres or adheres to the intestinal wall, giving a relatively safe range of vibration to the stool While injecting the enema solution little by little while inventing.

There is also a suppository-shaped enema in the enema, but it has a length that can be inserted into the anus as an insertion aid for using such a suppository-shaped enema, and can slide each other. The outer diameter of one is smaller than the other, and the suppository enema is attached to the recess at the tip of the double-layered pipe structure, and the outer pipe is held by hand and the suppository enema is placed in the anus. After insertion, the internal pipe is pushed out to push the suppository enema at the tip into the intestine without touching the finger directly to the anus. An infusion device composed of a material that is disintegratable over time due to contact with disposable water, or that is biodegradable or water-soluble has been proposed.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 11. I will explain. FIG. 7 is a configuration diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. 1001 is an anus insertion part of an enema aid made mainly of pulp. 1002 is an enema infusion tube made of a degradable resin. The injection tube 1002 is made of a single tube up to the portion indicated by the dotted line of the anal insertion part. Reference numeral 1003 is a hygienic separator paper so that fingers do not directly touch the periphery of the anus when the enema trap is inserted into the anus. Reference numeral 104 denotes a manual pump for enema, a small electric pump, or an adapter for connection with a commercially available enema. As shown in Fig. 8A, the tip of the decomposable resin injection tube 1002 is covered with a short non-return tube 1101 having a check valve function to provide a backflow prevention function. As shown in Fig. 8B, a tube with a non-return action with a closed end is used (reference numeral 1102).

In addition, in order to enlarge and expand the insertion part of the anus slightly at the time of injecting the enema, the inside of the tube 100 near the tip of the insertion part 1001 as shown in Fig. 9 was used. A cut is made to the passage of, and when the enema is injected, a part of the liquid leaks to the pulp side and pressure is applied in the circular direction. If necessary, add a water injection foaming agent to the pulp portion to assist in expansion.

In addition, for separating and cutting the injection tube 1002, a material having a movable blade 1106 of a cutter in a ring 1107 as shown in FIG. 10 is used. First, inject the enema into the cutter ring 1 1 0 7 through the injection tube 1 0 2, and after the injection, move the power ring as close to the anus as possible. Cut the tube at a force point of about cm and finish the work. The procedure is completed when the user puts abdominal pressure on his / her stomach and discards the enema aid inserted into the anus simultaneously with defecation. Figure 11 shows this cutting.

Here, the anal insertion part 1001 of the enema aid is made of degradable resin on the surface. However, resin coating is not necessarily required by adjusting the density of the pulp material or performing another surface treatment because it is integrally molded with the degradable tube. The anus insertion part is manufactured with specifications that maintain its shape about 20 minutes after the injection of the enema.

[Third form]

Subsequently, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 12 to FIG. FIG. 12 is a perspective view of the most basic shape of an enema assisting device. Reference numeral 2001 denotes an intestinal infusion port for injecting an enema into the intestine, reference numeral 2002 denotes a body of an enema assisting device, and reference numeral 2003 denotes a liquid flow path inside the dotted line. Reference numeral 4 denotes a connection port to be attached to the connection pipe of the injection device. Regarding the material of the enema aid 2002, the material whose strength is reduced over time due to contact with moisture and whose shape collapses is basically selected. They can be completely dissolved or disintegrated in toilet drains, or they can be biodegraded by the action of bacteria or bacteria. Some have a hydration swelling action that forms a special bond with water. In the present application, those having both of the above two properties are recommended. The required size and shape of the enema assist device 200 depends on the above properties, but when used for a normal flushing toilet, it should be set within the maximum size of the fecal valve normally excreted by humans. Is done. As a pipe-shaped or tube-shaped enema assisting device, first, gelatin or pulp was used as the material. Regarding gelatin, the details of its properties and processing methods have been published by each company, and various gelatins and prepared products have been manufactured. Not only can it be set freely, but also as an easy-to-use enema aid utilizing hydration swelling. Gelatin is made from collagen, and most of its components are proteins, which are biodegradable. Normally, the strength of gelatin is adjusted by adding glycerin, etc. It is adjusted by the amount added. In addition, pulp is usually manufactured using various additives called binders, but in the present application, in order to improve disintegration or decomposability when wet, such materials are omitted and the molding method is omitted. The shape of the pipe is created by. Now, when the enema assisting device 200 shown in Fig. 12 is manufactured using the good processability of gelatin, that is, the property that it can be melted and hardened many times by heating and cooling. The next problem is the setting of the aging property and the ease of use.In the present application, unless otherwise specified, the injection pressure of the enema is about 100 Omm at the water column. The enema assisting device 200 and the injection device are designed on the assumption. These values are based on the safety of the existing dropping type enema instruments, and by adopting values that have been proven in safety, ensuring sufficient enema injection pressure and confirming the existing safety We paid attention to the fact that the data of the above can be used as it is.

Next, when investigating the time involved in injecting enema in normal users, most of them finished infusion within a few minutes from the start of infusion. Therefore, in the enema aid shown in Fig. 12, the tube-shaped wall of the part to be inserted into the anus should be thinned to the extent that it can withstand the appropriate strength, and before insertion into the anus, The area near the tip was immersed in water or hot water, and the surface was easily lubricated by the swelling action, inserted into the anus, and then the enema was injected. Further, by adjusting the strength of the enema assist device, a part of the part inserted into the anus as shown in Fig. 13 was heated and the strength decreased due to the swelling effect of gelatin, and Enema from the anus when the enema aid 200 is pulled out of the anus due to the collapse of the sphincter muscle due to the contraction of the sphincter, or when the enema aid is removed from the anus and detached from the infusion device while leaving it in the anus. To prevent liquid leakage. However, if the user has a disease such as hemorrhoids in the anus, or if there are individual differences and physical conditions, in that case, the type or size or thickness and material characteristics differ according to individual differences. Use an enema aid. Before use The above properties can also be adjusted by adjusting the time of soaking in hot water. In addition, the connection between the enema assisting device and the injection device is made such that the connecting pipe of the injection device is inserted into the connection port of the enema assisting device, and the injection is performed so that the two are held in close contact with each other. The outer diameter of the connection pipe on the instrument side is slightly larger than the connection port of the enema aid to maintain the necessary frictional force until the enema aid is pulled out and removed after injecting the enema. In addition, the overall strength of the enema aid is weaker than resin products such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, and silicone used in ordinary medical devices. Conversely, as described above, the reduction in strength was applied to improve safety and usability. In addition, when using a long enema assisting device and using hot water at about the body temperature as the enema, it is easy to insert with an appropriate hardness when inserted into the anus. When the enema aid is pulled out of the anus after injection, the temperature rise and swelling tend to make the center line of the rectum in the anus softer and the center line of the insertion part of the enema aid easier to match. It has characteristics that hardly create a gap between the assistive device and the anus and rectum. When manufacturing a pipe-shaped enema assisting device from pulp, use the pulp material as it is or use a small amount of appropriate additives and mold or pipe-type enema using a mold method. Auxiliary device is made and made by injection molding, then immersed appropriately in melted gelatin, and a gelatin film is formed on the inner liquid passage and surface to form an enema auxiliary device.

Regarding the use of materials other than the above, firstly, polybutyl alcohol is used.However, processing methods, materials and properties of composite materials have been widely announced by related companies, and they are also used for medical devices, etc. In applications such as the present application, the material is generally recommended to be incinerated, so it is assumed that it will be used for small amounts or for use other than water washing. Most of the biodegradable plastics that are currently produced are hard and used for pipe-shaped enema aids. And what will be produced in the future Some of them can be processed into a soft tube shape, but the details are omitted because they are currently within the scope of confidentiality of each company. However, it is said that the decomposition time of the current biodegradable plastic is at least about one week for a film-like substance in soil decomposition.

FIG. 14 is an explanatory diagram of a change in the shape of the anus when the buttocks of the human body are viewed from below. When the anus is closed, a healthy person will have a shape similar to the line segment shown in figure 205. If it starts to open slightly due to defecation or the like, it will be an ellipse if it is expressed in the form of 2006. When defecation of a thicker stool is performed, the shape becomes closer to a circle like 2007. This is a characteristic of the anal muscle. Even if a circle such as 207 shrinks, it never shrinks like a dot. However, the stool may stay in the intestine, so it may be close to a circle, but may have various shapes depending on the situation. Here, in an enema device, the portion to be inserted into the anus is usually not so deep, and the insertion portion is also made thinner in order to insert from the closed state of the anus. In such a case, the enema assisting device having an oval cross section of 209 instead of a circular shape such as 208 in the cross-sectional shape of a part of the enema assisting device is misdirected. If used without it, a gap would be difficult to create because the shape of the anus at 206 would approximate the slightly open shape. When using an enema assisting device having this elliptical cross-section, insert it into the anus so that the direction of the crack in the hip matches the longitudinal direction of the ellipse. Also, place a mark on the injection device so that it is easy to understand in which direction the enema aid is attached and how to insert it, and specify the mounting direction and handle direction. However, even in the enema assisting device having a circular cross section, the thickness of the enema assisting device is slightly increased so that the center side of the enema fluid flow path is hardened, the outer side in contact with the anus and rectum is soft, and the strength is less than that of human gelatin. If finished, it will be easier to adapt to various anal cross-sectional shapes. Fig. 15 shows a simple type of enema, which is a simple enema and has a partially cut elliptical cut surface at the anus insertion part. Is inserted into the anus according to the anterior-posterior direction of the human body, and then withdrawn and removed after injecting the enema.

There is a gas discharge mechanism shown in Fig. 16 for discharging gas filled around the rectum and sigmoid colon when performing an enema. This is to create an exhaust port 210 for discharging gas in a part of the flow path pipe 210 of the injection device, and the outer diameter of 210 is almost equal to its inner diameter so that they can slide with each other. Equipped with a pipe for open / close valve that maintains airtightness of the slide surface. Then, before inserting the enema solution, attach the enema assisting device to the infusion device and insert it into the anus. Before injecting the enema, open the exhaust port 201 to allow the gas to fill the intestine and affect defecation. Discharge 2 0 1 7. Next, operate the opening / closing valve pipe 201 in the direction to close the exhaust port, close the exhaust port, and maintain the air-tightness of the flow path, and then put the enema in the intestine into the intestine. Is to be injected. Fig. 17 shows the same mechanism as the rotary type.Exhaust holes can also be made in the outer open / close valve pipe, and exhaust can be performed with the inner and outer holes overlapping. The exhaust is closed with both holes not overlapping each other. Usually, pipes made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel are used for the exhaust part, but resin pipes can also be used. A suitable lubricant is sealed on the slide surface of each pipe to improve airtightness and reduce friction. In addition, the slide operation is manually opened and closed in a manual injection device, but in the case of an electric motor, the exhaust port is automatically closed when the enema is injected by the power slide mechanism. It is operated as follows. As the power mechanism, a mechanism that slides using hydraulic pressure, a mechanism that uses a small motor or a simple electromagnet, and the like are employed. For those that use hydraulic pressure, a stone valve is provided in the middle of the flow path of the injection device, and unless this valve is operated with hydraulic pressure, the enema will not be sent to the subsequent flow path, By mechanically linking the movement of the piston valve and the movement of the gas discharge opening / closing pipe, the injection operation, that is, the switching operation of the exhaust port, is linked. In addition, The vent can be used not only for the discharge of gas filled in the intestine, but also for the external discharge of the air enrolled in the channel at the beginning of the enema injection.

Fig. 18 is a cross-sectional view for explaining an injection device with a slide mechanism that can be pushed out and removed without directly touching the enema aid with fingers after using the enema aid. Since the connecting pipe 200 is inserted and connected to the connecting port 204 of the enema aid 200, the slide mechanism 202 is pushed out with a finger after use to operate it. This is the basic structure for pushing out and removing the enema aid. Numeral 2021 is a tube for an injection device for the purpose of sending enema from an electric injector to a connection pipe. A lubricant is applied to the slide surface of the slide mechanism and the connection pipe. Fig. 19 is a perspective view of an injection device with a slide mechanism in which the slide operation portion of the slide has a disk shape.

FIG. 20 is a block diagram of a manual integrated enema device. Turn the screw-type hot water filling port 2202 of the bellows type enema pump 2202 made of polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride etc. to open the upper part and fill the opening with hot water of about body temperature. If necessary, add a small amount of edible oil such as olive oil or sesame oil, turn the screw 203 again to close the lid, and place it at the tip of the enema aid separating mechanism 204. Attach the enema assisting device 200 to the connecting pipe not shown. At this time, when using the enema assisting device 200 with an oval cross section, the enema assisting device 200 should be adjusted so that the direction of the handle and the longitudinal direction of the oval of the enema assisting device coincide with the longitudinal direction of the user. Attach 2 to the injection device. Next, the user wets the tip of the enema aid 200 with hot water, and after a while inserts the tip of the enema aid 200 into the anus. Next, the enema is injected into the intestine by pressing the bellows type enema pump 202 with a finger. When the infusion of the enema is completed, remove the enema aid 200 from the anus and push out the enema aid separation mechanism 200 with your finger, and place the enema aid in the toilet bowl. Discard 2 Wait for defecation. In addition, the injection device is provided with an anti-reflux valve inside to prevent back flow from the anal side during injection or withdrawal. If necessary, it is also possible to leave the enema assisting device 200 in the anus after injecting the enema and dispose it in the toilet at the same time as defecation. The parts 222, 220, and 204 can be used repeatedly, but if any part is damaged, such as a hole, it must be replaced. In the case of a manual integrated infusion device, the enema liquid container volume is assumed to be around 200 cc.

Figure 21 is a perspective view of an integrated enema device with a ring-type push-out mechanism for an enema aid. The configuration consists of a bellows-type enema pump with a screw-type opening at the top, a screw lid with a slide separation mechanism that is connected to the pump with screws, and a screw lid. It consists of a ring-type extrusion mechanism 200 mounted on 26. The two upper and lower rings are connected to each other by three or more slide connection rods of the same length, which are connected to one side through holes of the same size opened in the screw cap 220. The ring is located inside the bellows type enema pump 2022 and the other side is located at the base of the external connecting pipe 201. A structure in which airtightness cormorants by enema liquid leaking during the injection from the gap between the hole and the slide connecting rod of the screw cap 2 0 2 6 enemas is maintained _(usage is similar to precedent Then, add hot water or a small amount of edible oil, and fill the pump 2202 with the enema.Next, with the lower ring of the ring-type extrusion mechanism 205 at the bottom, Before the slide operation with the ring on the connection pipe 201 side retracted, attach the screw lid 220 26 to the pump 220. Then, attach the enema assisting device 200 Attach it to the connecting pipe 201. Then, immerse the tip of the enema aid in hot water, or soak it in hot water before attaching it to the connecting pipe 201, and then put it in the anus. The enema is injected into the intestine by inserting the tip of 02 into the intestine by pressing the pump 2202 with your finger. Push pump 2 0 2 2 The ring-type push-out mechanism 20 25 is also pushed by the pressure at the same time, and the enema aid is pushed out and removed at the same time. Therefore, when removing the enema aid 200 from the anus after injecting the enema, remove the enema aid from the anus together with the infusion device by leaving a little of the enema from the pump 222. To extrude 2 0 2 2 and simultaneously discharge the remaining enema fluid and push out and remove the enema aid from the toilet, and if the enema aid remains in the anus until defecation, remove the enema aid slightly. However, if the entire amount of the enema is injected as it is, the enema aid can be continuously removed. Although the enema aid shown in this example has a bent shape, it is first made into a straight tube and then bent by heat. Gelatin is used for enema aids, including previous examples. A straight, short tube-shaped enema aid can also be manufactured using the method of manufacturing soft capsules, and can be produced at a relatively low cost. In this case, it is manufactured in the form of a capsule first, and after finishing, both ends are cut and, at the same time, the oil for molding inside is discharged to form a tube.

FIG. 22 is a perspective view of a double tube slide type separation mechanism of the enema aid used when the aid is slightly separated from the infusion pump. An outer tube 200 that can be slid in such a way that it can be placed over the inner tube 202 with a tube that is used repeatedly, and the tip of the 2027 is connected to the enema aid 2 Connect to 0 0 4. After injecting the enema, slide the outer tube 202 so that it pushes out the inner tube or pulls the inner tube in relative motion, so that the two tubes have the same tip. When this is done, the 207 attached to the connection port of the enema assist device comes off, and the enema assist device separates and separates. 2027B in FIG. 22A is a sponge for preventing liquid leakage remaining in the tube after separation and separation, which is disposed in the tube. Also, reference numeral 29 in Fig. 22B is an enlarged flange, which is used to push out the working surface with the enema aid. The extrudability is increased by making it larger than the area of the outer tube.

Figure 23 is an arrangement diagram using the double tube slide type separation mechanism. There is a pulp handle 2303B that is held by hand when inserting the enema assist device 200 into the anus, so that fingers do not directly touch the anus when inserted into the anus In addition, a paper sanitary separator paper 203 that can be readily dissolved in water is provided. Connect the infusion tube 2027 to the connection port 204 of the enema catcher 200, and operate the open / close switch 20034 of the battery-driven electric pump 203. The enema is sucked from the enema tank 200 35 containing hot water at about body temperature through the suction tube 203 and injected into the intestine through the enema aid 200. When the infusion of the enema is completed, the user operates the remote separation lever 203 to separate and separate from the enema aid as in the first embodiment, and waits for defecation. It can be used by ordinary people, but it is suitable for elderly people and others to support independent defecation.

FIG. 24 is a perspective view of a hydraulically driven slide mechanism using hydraulic pressure. The slide mechanism is attached to the outside of a connecting pipe or a connecting tube 201 connecting the injection device and the enema assisting device, and has a ring-shaped cylinder 2 having a hollow inside in a cylindrical shape. The same ring-shaped bistone is contained in the cylinder 0 38, and when the operation lever 204 is pushed in, the hydraulic port 210 4 1 passes through the tube 204 2 through the hydraulic port 210 4. The liquid is injected under pressure into the cylinder. Then, the piston 209 moves in the direction of compressing the restoring spring 204, and the pushing ring 200, 36 slides in the pushing direction, so that the front enema assisting device can be moved. Can be pushed out of the injection device and removed. Restoration panel 204 may be omitted for simplification of processing, and restoration may be performed manually after use. The shape of the extruded ring may not be a perfect circular ring, but may be an elliptical ring. The inside of the cylinder 208 is connected to the connecting pipe or connecting tube of the injector. It is fixed to. This mechanism is relatively This is particularly effective when injecting the enema from the distant infusion pump into the enema aid.The enema aid is used even if the path from the enema infusion pump to the enema aid is slightly curved. Since it can be reliably pushed out, it can also be used for nursing care or support for independent evacuation of elderly people, etc., as described in Figure 25 below.

The injection device shown in Fig. 25 is suitable for the use of the enema aid shown in Fig. 26 or the independent enema aid shown in Fig. 27 for assisting in defecation or nursing care, which is a somewhat special enema. Auxiliary equipment, slightly shaped like a goat, and made of hollow gelatin inside, and the one shown in Fig. 26 allows the user to use hot water at about body temperature or a small amount of cooking oil. Prepare and use the added enema. After connecting the injecting device and the enema aid, the tip of the enema aid is appropriately immersed in hot water, and the infusion pump is operated to remove air in the middle flow path from the tip of the enema aid and then into the anus. Buy. The posture when performing an enema is different from normal.When the enema aid is inserted into the anus, do not hold the enema aid with your fingers, etc., and lightly sit on the toilet seat such as a Western style toilet. Then, inject the enema solution by holding the enema aid in the toilet seat, move the hips after the injection, move the buttocks to the normal defecation position, and immediately before the defecation, the enema aid and enema solution It can be used to separate the injection tubes and. However, depending on the user, it may be difficult to judge the start of defecation, and depending on the usage, there is a possibility that a part of the injection device may be stained by defecation. Therefore, for such users, as shown in Fig. 27, the flow path of the disposable enema assisting device is slightly extended so that the injection device can be connected from an appropriate distance from the anus. This is designed to reduce the possibility of contamination of the injection device during defecation. Fig. 29 is an illustration of the connection, disconnection and detachment of the care enema aid inserted into the anus and the enema fluid injection tube. In addition, as shown in Fig. 28, the enema can be used to reduce the contamination of the fingers when inserting the enema aid into the anus. Provide a handle such as 203 B to facilitate holding and insertion into the assisting device, and use a water-soluble sanitary separator such as 220 29 to prevent direct contact between the anus and fingers. By providing this, enema can be performed more hygienically. Returning to the hydraulic slide mechanism shown in Fig. 24, the amount of liquid required for the slide is small. Assuming that the required liquid pressure of the enema fluid is about 100 Omm water column, about 1 g per square millimeter is applied to the enema aid and connecting pipe or connecting tube. The holding friction required for the enema aid and the infusion pipe or infusion tube is determined by multiplying the infusion pressure by the enema fluid flow area and the safety factor. The driving pressure required for the actual hydraulic slide mechanism takes into account the transmission efficiency of the ton. Either a separation mechanism driven by the force of a finger or a switch operation using a small electric motor or the like as a power source is used. Water or oil such as hydraulic oil is used as the liquid for hydraulic pressure.

Here, regarding the separation and detachment of the enema aid and the injection device, as shown in Fig. 30, it is made of pulp that has disintegration over time when exposed to moisture, using the soft property of the enema aid as shown in Fig. 30. Using the clip 205, sandwich the gelatin tube of the enema aid 2002 to block the internal liquid flow path, and then use the panel cutter 2504. A method was also adopted in which the injection device and the enema aid were cut off and separated.

Fig. 31 shows the configuration of a clip-type separation device with clip for an enema assisting device made by obtaining tips from a stapler in office supplies. When the infusion of the enema into the enema aid 200 attached to the injection pipe 200 is completed, the clip guide 205 is manually operated by operating the clip push lever 205. 3 Push out the clip 205 stored in B to the clip stop 205, and close the liquid flow path so as to pinch and collapse the enema aid 2002, and at the same time The cutter with pan 2 0 5 4 advances to the cutter holder 2 0 5 7 to use the enema aid. Cutting and clipping The mounting base for the push-out lever 205 and the spring-loaded force collector 2054 has a mechanism that returns with a restoring panel, and is cut and restored by restoring the lever. The enema aid whose flow path was stopped by the tap is released.

FIG. 32 is a perspective view of a special care enema trap. This enema aid cannot be defecated in a sitting position, and is intended to be used as an intestinal lavage or enema for bedridden caregivers. The part is processed and bundled as one to form the tip part 206, one tube 206 is used for hot water injection at about body temperature, and the other tube 206 Is used for the discharge of gas filling the intestine and for the discharge of bowel wash or stool. The length of the tube is as long as the part inserted from the anus and beyond the sigmoid colon, and the operation is performed by a healthcare professional or a specialist trained by the healthcare professional. The pump used to inject the intestinal wash is a pump with pressure and flow control. If there is stool around the rectum, excrete it in advance using the above-mentioned enema aid. First, immerse the necessary part of the enema aid in hot water or the like until the appropriate flexibility is reached, and the specialist inserts the enema aid into the anus using medical rubber gloves. At this time, the insertion is smooth and smooth due to the swelling property of the gelatin, and the insertion is continued deeper while appropriately injecting hot water from the injection tube side of hot water at about body temperature. At this time, the front side of the discharge tube should be placed at a place where waste such as toilet bowls can be disposed of so that continuous injection and discharge can be performed. It is possible to adjust the angle of the distal end of the sigmoid colon, such as the curved part of the sigmoid colon, by changing the angle of the distal end of the tube by pulling or pushing out the tube. In such a case, do not overdo it and perform intestinal lavage from the insertion site. In addition, since the strength of the tube decreases after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the infusion of the enema wash, the enema aid must be completed within a limited time. No. However, even if a part of the enema assisting device remains in the intestine due to the material, there is no particular health problem, and there is little risk of damaging the intestine in this work due to the material. After use, drain the bowel juice together with the drainage, or pull it out of the anus with your hand, cut it to a suitable length with scissors, etc., and discard it in a toilet bowl. This enema aid can also be used for intestinal cleansing of some anal patients. FIG. 33 is a sectional view of a panel-driven infusion pump. First, pull the button 200 by operating the handle 207 and pull the button 207 through the thread pulling string 207. 0 7 1 works to fix the piston without returning. Next, add hot water or a small amount of edible oil to the container, and seal the container with the screw cap 200. At the end of the liquid supply tube 204, there is a handle of an injection device having an on-off valve, and preparation for injecting the enema is performed. When ready, first operate the piston fixed lever 20071 so that the biston can move with the spring force of 270. After the air in the channel is discharged from the end of the enema assist device by slightly operating the enema injecting lever of the handle of the injecting device, insert the enema assist device into the anus. Next, the injection lever is gradually operated to inject the enema in the enema container 206 into the intestine. At this time, if the flow rate of the enema fluid becomes too fast, the ball valve 2064 for preventing backflow is pushed upward, and the pressure loss increases due to the narrowing of the fluid passage and the flow rate. Is adjusted to decrease. In addition, even if the enema fluid is about to flow back, the ball valve closes and the backflow is prevented.

FIG. 34 is a perspective view of a panel pressure driven integral enema device. In this method, first remove the screw cover 208, pull the tension on the piston, pull the handle 205, compress the panel inside, and pull the pin to lock the movement of the piston at the end. Fill the enema from the top of the enema container 2 0 7 7 Turn the lid 2 0 7 8 to maintain airtightness. After attaching the enema aid to the connecting pipe 210, remove the lock of the 2007 5 and insert the enema aid into the anus. Operate the enema infusion lever 20079 to inject the enema, and operate the enema aid disconnection lever 20080 after the operation to discard the enema aid in the toilet bowl. The injection device is made of resin, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc., except that rubber is used for part of the piston and part of the flow path.

FIG. 35 is a perspective view of a small electric integrated enema device. A built-in commercially available dry battery or rechargeable battery in the injector body 208 is used to drive the built-in small electric pump. There is also a tank of a predetermined volume of enema inside. The user holds the main unit with one hand, and first puts hot water of about body temperature or any enema into another container, and the enema fluid suction tube connected to the enema fluid inlet 208 Put the tip of the infusion into the enema solution, and operate the enema fluid suction switch 2085 to fill the tank of the injection device body with the enema solution. Next, the enema aid 200 2 is attached to the connecting pipe 201, and the tip of the enema aid is appropriately immersed in hot water to ensure lubricity on the surface. Is adjusted to an appropriate angle. Subsequently, the injection device itself is held with one hand, and the enema assisting device 200 is inserted into the anus. When the infusion of the enema is completed, remove the enema aid 200 from the anus and operate the enema aid push-out and release switch 208 to discard the enema aid 200 in the toilet bowl. You. Inside the injection device, there is a temperature switch using a shape memory alloy such as a Ni-Ti system.If an attempt is made to supply hot water exceeding a predetermined temperature by mistake, an alarm will sound. A mechanism is used so that the flow path of the enema is not blocked or the switch of the electric pump does not enter. Regarding the accuracy of shape memory alloys, for example, Daido special steel, etc., whose operating temperature is within 40 ° C and within 2 ° C has been put to practical use. In addition, a fixed displacement type electric pump is used for the small electric integrated type electric pump. A small electric motor is used for the slide extrusion mechanism of the enema trap. The flexible wire is extruded and released. Therefore, there are two small motors inside the injector. If you want to inject the enema at one time over the volume of the enema tank inside the injector body, place a separate enema tank at the end of the tube 287 and keep the height difference even. In addition, it is possible to increase the amount of injection while receiving the enema from the tank separately during the injection of the enema, by installing it so that air does not enter the flow path. FIG. 36 is a block diagram of a hand-held infusion device for receiving an enema from a hot water washer of the toilet and injecting it into the intestine. There are two types of connection to the hot water washer: receiving hot water from the liquid supply tube of 209 4 and sending a signal to open and close the pump on the hot water washer by the signal transmission cable 209 3. Is connected. The signal on the handle side is usually provided by a contact signal without voltage, and controls the signal circuit or power circuit on the hot water washer side. In the middle of the handle, there is a joining point that can be opened and closed with a permanent magnet or a screw. When separated, the internal flow path on the pump side is slightly thicker. Can be filled with liquid drugs, edible oils, etc. When the joint surface is closed again after filling with a chemical, etc., airtightness is ensured. Enema liquid injection lever — 2091 not only sends a signal to the hot water washer side, but also mechanically opens and closes a rubber tubular channel inside to adjust the flow rate. The slide extrusion lever of the enema assist device is simply mechanically connected to the upper extruding mechanism, and has a structure in which the enema assist device is manually extruded.

Fig. 37 also shows a hot water washer as a source of hot water and electricity, and a switch 20095 for dissociating stool that has adhered or dehydrated around the rectum or sigmoid colon from the intestinal wall. It is an explanatory view equipped with a vibrator 20096 that operates. If the stool adheres or dehydrates around the intestinal outlet, a passage obstruction will occur, and in most cases, the symptoms will be apparent after the stool is stiffened during defecation. Flights still out I won't. The enema assisting device used is not a normal enema assisting device, but a thicker, longer, and more durable one with a cylindrical center and a flow path around it. The vibrator uses a relatively low frequency, the mechanical action is adjustable, and the force is gradually increased by observing the weak action, but the user touches the tip of the enema aid to the stool in the intestine and turns the vibrator on. While inching the switch, inject the enema solution little by little while feeling the adhesion between the stool and the intestine and the feeling of sticking. As the type of enema, hot water at about the body temperature with edible oil may be used. If you feel that a small amount of enema is injected into the intestine, inject an appropriate amount, then remove the enema aid from the anus and discard it in the toilet.

Fig. 38 is an illustration of an injection device using a hot water washer. When hot water is supplied from the hot water source 200 9 of the hot water washer and the pressure of the hot water becomes higher than the set value, the toilet 2 is passed through the excess hot water drain tube 2 10 0 by the safety valve 2 9 8. It is designed to be drained into 101. This is a safety measure when using a system that is not completely matched, not only to reduce the impact on the human body, but also to prevent instantaneous high pressure from being applied to the liquid supply line. It is also a safe measure for an enema device that is assembled from parts with weak target strength.

FIG. 40 shows a connection method of an injection tube which can be adopted in each of the above-described embodiments.A magnet 216 of a polarity that generates an attractive force is fixed to a connection end of two tubes 211, The two tubes are connected by the attractive force of this magnet to make one tube. Reference numeral 210 denotes a guide member that forms a fitting recess at the connection end of one tube, and reference numeral 210 denotes a guide member that forms a fitting protrusion at the connection end of the other tube. It is. By fitting these two guide members, the two tubes can be connected without being shifted in the diameter direction.

FIG. 39 is a perspective view of an injection device for a suppository enema. Currently suppository enema In order to prevent contamination by direct contact of the fingers and the like with the anus, the inner pipe 2 103 is inserted into a pulp outer pipe 210 having a predetermined length. Insert the suppository enema 2 1 0 5 into the recess at the end of the pipe, and hold the outer pipe 2 1 0 2 with your fingers. Insert the end of the inner pipe with your fingers, push out the end of the inner pipe, push out the suppository enema from the infusion device into the intestine, and dispose of the used injection device as it is in the toilet bowl. Pulp injection equipment has the property of rapidly disintegrating when it comes into contact with water in the toilet bowl. Industrial applicability

As described above, the enema device, enema assisting device, and infusion device of the present invention have completely changed the conventional enema method. With a normal enema that injects the enema from the lower side to the upper side, there is a risk of fluid leakage when the enema is pulled out from the anus. When this was the case, the unsanitary nature of the leak from the anus was prominent. By using the enema assisting device of the present application, first, even when the user inserts the enema assisting device into the anus, the hand does not come into direct contact with the buttocks around the anus. You can inject the enema in a relaxed position, and because the volume of the enema is set to be relatively large, feel the condition of yourself while injecting the enema and adjust the amount of the enema It can be adjusted, and the remote separation mechanism can be used to separate the enema aid and infusion tube from a power point away from the anus and the main material is pulp and biodegradable plastic Combined with an enema aid that can be discarded in the toilet at the same time as defecation, it is possible to easily perform a hygienic enema. The enema aid of the present invention, the injection tube with a remote separator, the manual or small electric pump, and the bag-type enema container can all be stored in a small bag for compactness. Possible Therefore, the product of the present invention can be easily used not only at home but also on the go.

The enema method and enema aid of the present invention have completely changed the conventional enema method. With a normal enema that injects the enema from the bottom to the top, there is a risk of fluid leakage when the enema is pulled out of the anus. In such cases, the unsanitary effects of fluid leakage from the anus were prominent. By using the enema assisting device for insertion into the anus of the present application, first, when inserting and mounting the enema assisting device in the anus, the user can directly contact the buttocks around the anus with fingers. It is possible to inject enema alone in a relaxed position and use it as a supplementary device for enema products on the market, or without using water or hot water at about body temperature, without using special chemicals. Defecation can be induced with oil, emulsion, etc., and since the volume of the enema can be set to a relatively large value, inject the enema while feeling the physical condition of the individual while injecting the enema. The amount can be adjusted. In addition, since the safety cutter is used as the cutting and separating mechanism, most of the parts contaminated with feces etc. can be discarded in the toilet bowl simultaneously with defecation, and other parts can be incinerated, so the burden on the user Is greatly reduced.

Further, the enema assisting device and the injection device of the present invention greatly improve the unsafe image and the inconvenience of the conventional enema device. First, the part that is inserted into the anus directly, which is the most unsafe part of the enema, is separated from the other parts. The part that is directly inserted into the anus and contaminated is called an enema aid, disposable, or used Rather than being disposed of later in a trash can, it is made of a material and in a shape that can be directly discarded in places where contamination occurs, that is, in toilets such as flush toilets, so post-treatment is much more sanitary. It is convenient. In addition, the injection device has been made reusable, which leads to effective use of resources. In addition, hot water of about body temperature as an enema and a small amount of edible oil etc. depending on the situation When used regularly, enema has a natural effect on the body and is less likely to cause side effects due to habituation. Also, gelatin or polyvinyl alcohol having hydration swelling properties and heat processability is used as a material for the enema assisting device. The surface is slimy and has a lubricating action, but the whole is a little hard and easy to insert, and after injection of warm water, it deforms over time due to the pressure of the anal sphincter, and leakage of the infusate from the anus This makes it possible to provide a function that does not easily cause problems. When using an existing enema device, when pulling out from the anus by hand, the direction of withdrawal deviates from the extension of the rectum, resulting in a gap between the injection part inserted into the anus and the intestinal lining. In many cases, this may lead to leakage of the injected enema fluid. However, as described in this application, in the case of a material that adheres well to the intestinal wall and increases in flexibility over time after injection of warm water, enema support Even if the direction of withdrawal of the device from the anus slightly deviates from the extension of the rectum, it is difficult to form a gap with the intestinal lining due to its flexibility. In addition, the fact that the enema assist device can be discarded in the toilet after use makes it possible to adapt a different enema defecation method. That is, in the past, the part inserted into the anus after the injection of the enema was designed so that the part was removed from the anus and then defecation was performed for a while. It is also possible to select a method of using the toilet so that it is discharged into the toilet simultaneously with defecation, with the enema aid inserted in the anus even after the injection. In addition, an enema is usually designed to expect defecation immediately after injecting an enema solution.However, if the enema can also be used as in the present application, hot water at about body temperature after defecation is used. Enema is performed by adding a small amount of food oil suitable for the user, or by performing ileum washing around the sigmoid colon from the rectum, thereby discharging the feces around the stomach and discharging from the rectum. By forming a thin oil film around the sigmoid colon to prevent excessive dehydration from the stool at the next defecation and improve stool passage, it is possible to obtain a light bowel movement When Become. This is especially useful for people who have hemorrhoids and other diseases in the anus. Now, defecation is a weak situation for humans. Therefore, the present invention provides a panel-powered injection device, a small electric injection device, and the like so that the user can perform the operation at the time of enema or intestinal washing without burden on the user as much as possible. Improved. In addition, by adopting an interface that can be supplied with hot water from the existing hot water washer and hot water washing toilet seat, it is extremely used for regular use in toilets. In terms of ease and safety, by controlling the temperature and pressure or flow rate of hot water, the system can be used by anyone with peace of mind. Other items include hygiene control in suppository enemas, and the combination of relatively safe bowel wash tubes for the bedridden elderly and other care recipients with the above-mentioned injection device. It is one that is expected to greatly develop.

The present invention relates to an enema device for facilitating defecation, an enema assisting device, an infusion device, and an enema method using the same. Traditionally, enemas have been difficult for users to use. In the case of a fig-type enema, when injecting the enema or removing the container from the anus, the hands sometimes got dirty with a leak of dirt. Therefore, the part to be contaminated by insertion into the anus is separated from the other part, the part to be inserted into the anus is the enema aid (1), and the other part is the syringe.

The enema aid (1) is made of a material that can be discarded as it is after use, for example, gelatin, etc., and the separation mechanism (10) is used without soiling the fingers after use.

In this way, the device can be separated and separated from the injection device, and can be discarded as it is in the toilet.
