Description

生体排液を収容するための容器Container for storing biological drainage
　本発明は、尿などの生体排液を収容するための容器に関する。 The present invention relates to a container for containing biological drainage such as urine.
　尿などの生体排液を一時的に収容し、その量を計測したり性状を観察したりするための医療用の容器が医療機関等で広く使用されている。当該容器は通常可撓性のプラスチック製シートからなり、尿を収容するものは「蓄尿バッグ」と呼ばれている。泌尿器の機能が低下した患者などのように患者の意思で排尿できないとき、尿道から膀胱へネラトンカテーテルや導尿用バルーンカテーテルの先端を留置し、このカテーテルの基端に導尿チューブを接続し、このチューブを介して蓄尿バッグへと尿を収容する。 Medical containers for temporarily storing biological effluents such as urine and measuring the amount or observing their properties are widely used in medical institutions and the like. The container is usually made of a flexible plastic sheet, and a container for storing urine is called a “urine storage bag”. When urination cannot be performed at the patient's will, such as in patients with reduced urinary function, place the tip of a nelaton catheter or urinary balloon catheter from the urethra to the bladder, and connect a urinary tube to the proximal end of this catheter. Urine is stored in the urine storage bag through this tube.
　現在、蓄尿バッグは数週間使いまわしされるのが一般的であり、臭いや雑菌の問題がしばしば指摘されてきた。また、現在の蓄尿バッグでは、尿を廃棄する際、蓄尿バッグの排尿口からバケツや紙コップへと一旦バッグ内の尿を回収し、それをトイレや排泄口に流して廃棄するのが一般的である。しかし、このように尿を液状のまま廃棄すると尿を回収する際に尿が周囲環境および医療従事者へと飛散するおそれがあり衛生的ではない。そのため、蓄尿バッグの内部に尿を吸収してゲル化する材料を配置し、該材料が少なくとも廃棄時までに尿を吸収してゲル化する蓄尿バッグが検討されている。 Currently, urine storage bags are generally used for several weeks, and problems of odor and bacteria have often been pointed out. In addition, with the current urine storage bag, when discarding urine, it is common to collect the urine in the bag from the urine outlet of the urine storage bag to a bucket or paper cup and then drain it to the toilet or excretion port for disposal. It is. However, if the urine is discarded in a liquid state as described above, the urine may be scattered to the surrounding environment and medical staff when the urine is collected, which is not hygienic. Therefore, a urine storage bag in which a material that gels by absorbing urine is arranged inside the urine storage bag and the material absorbs urine and gels at least by the time of disposal has been studied.
　特許文献１には、尿を吸収してゲル化する粉末を内部に配置した容器が記載されている。図８には、このような容器の例として、２枚の透明の非透水性シート３２，３４を外周でシールし、尿を吸収してゲル化する粉末２２を内部に配置した蓄尿バッグ７００を示した。 Patent Document 1 describes a container in which a powder that absorbs urine and gels is placed inside. FIG. 8 shows, as an example of such a container, a urine storage bag 700 in which two transparent water- impermeable sheets 32 and 34 are sealed at the outer periphery and a powder 22 that absorbs urine and gels is disposed inside. Indicated.

　蓄尿バッグに収容された尿は、液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりするニーズがある。例えば、手術後の尿の色を観察することは、各種代謝異常や腎機能低下など患者の容態を把握する上で重要な確認事項である。 There is a need to measure the amount of urine stored in a urine storage bag while in liquid form and to observe the properties and colors. For example, observing the color of urine after surgery is an important confirmation item for grasping the patient's condition such as various metabolic abnormalities and decreased renal function.
　しかしながら、図８に示す従来の蓄尿バッグ７００では、蓄尿バッグに尿が流入するとともにゲル化を起こす構成であるため、液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができない。また、この問題は尿に限らず、腹水／胸水、胆汁、消化管液、術野浸出液、脳脊髄液、のドレナージ、腹膜透析液などの一般的な生体排液を収容する容器にも同様に当てはまる。 However, since the conventional urine storage bag 700 shown in FIG. 8 is configured to cause urine to flow into the urine storage bag and cause gelation, the amount cannot be measured and the properties and colors cannot be observed while still in liquid form. . This problem is not limited to urine, but also to containers that contain general biological drainage such as ascites / pleural effusion, bile, gastrointestinal fluid, surgical exudate, cerebrospinal fluid drainage, and peritoneal dialysis fluid. apply.
　そこで本発明は、上記課題に鑑み、収容した生体排液を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、生体排液をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能な簡易な構成の容器を提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, in view of the above problems, the present invention is capable of measuring the amount of the stored biological drainage liquid and observing the properties and colors, and discarding the biological drainage in a gel state.

　以下、図１～７を参照しつつ本発明の実施形態をより詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS.
　（実施形態１）
　図１，２を参照して、本発明の一実施形態にかかる容器（蓄尿バッグ）１００を説明する。容器１００は、図１（Ａ），（Ｂ）に示すように、２枚の透明の非透水性シートからなる外装シート３２，３４を外周でシールし、内部空間を形成した容器本体３０を有する蓄尿バッグである。容器１００は、尿を収容するための第１室１０と、尿を吸収するとゲル化する材料であるゲル化材２２が配設された第２室２０と、を有する。すなわち、導尿チューブ４８は第１室１０と連通しており、導尿チューブ４８を介して第１室１０へと尿を流入させることができる。 (Embodiment 1)
A container (urine storage bag) 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIGS. 1 (A) and 1 (B), the container 100 has a container body 30 that seals outer sheets 32 and 34 made of two transparent water-impermeable sheets at the outer periphery to form an internal space. It is a urine storage bag. The container 100 includes a first chamber 10 for storing urine and a second chamber 20 in which a gelling material 22 that is a material that gels when urine is absorbed is disposed. That is, the urinary tube 48 communicates with the first chamber 10, and urine can flow into the first chamber 10 through the urinary tube 48.
　本実施形態では、図１（Ａ），（Ｂ）に示すように、外装シート３２，３４からなる容器本体３０の内面同士を接着させた仕切り部としてのシール２４によって、ゲル化材２２が、第１室１０に収容される尿とは非接触となるように第２室２０内部に配設される。シール２４は、容器本体３０の内部空間を第１室１０と第２室２０とに区画している。 In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 (A) and 1 (B), the gelling material 22 is provided by the seal 24 as a partition part that bonds the inner surfaces of the container body 30 composed of the exterior sheets 32 and 34 to each other. The urine stored in the first chamber 10 is disposed in the second chamber 20 so as not to contact the urine. The seal 24 partitions the internal space of the container body 30 into a first chamber 10 and a second chamber 20.
　本発明の特徴的構成は、仕切り部による仕切りを解除し、ゲル化材２２を第１室１０に収容される尿と接触可能とする機構を有することである。本実施形態において、当該機構は、仕切り部であるシール２４が、所定の負荷を与えることにより剥離することである。このような簡易な構成により容器１００を以下に示すように使用することができる。 The characteristic configuration of the present invention is to have a mechanism for releasing the partition by the partition portion and making the gelling material 22 come into contact with the urine stored in the first chamber 10. In the present embodiment, the mechanism is that the seal 24 that is a partition part is peeled off by applying a predetermined load. With such a simple configuration, the container 100 can be used as shown below.
　まず、図２（Ａ）に示すように、第１室１０に尿を収容する。このとき、ゲル化材２２は第２室２０にあり尿と接触しないので、第１室１０中で尿を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができる。 First, urine is stored in the first chamber 10 as shown in FIG. At this time, since the gelling material 22 is in the second chamber 20 and does not come into contact with urine, the amount of urine can be measured in the first chamber 10 while the property and color can be observed while the urine remains liquid.
　次に、使用者が外装シート３２，３４のシール２４周辺部分をつまみ、引っ張るなどの方法で、シール２４に所定の負荷を与えると、シール２４は剥離する。その結果、図２（Ｂ）に示すように、ゲル化材２２が第１室１０に落ち、第１室１０中の尿と接触し、ゲル化材２２は尿を吸収しゲル化する。よって、尿をゲルの状態で廃棄することができる。なお、本発明は、廃棄時までにゲル化材と尿が接触すればよく、その結果尿の全てがゲルの状態となることには限定されず、尿の一部がゾルの状態のままでもよい。 Next, when the user applies a predetermined load to the seal 24 by a method such as pinching and pulling the peripheral portion of the seal 24 of the exterior sheets 32 and 34, the seal 24 is peeled off. As a result, as shown in FIG. 2B, the gelling material 22 falls into the first chamber 10 and comes into contact with the urine in the first chamber 10, and the gelling material 22 absorbs urine and gels. Therefore, urine can be discarded in a gel state. In the present invention, the gelling material and urine may be in contact with each other by the time of disposal, and as a result, the entire urine is not limited to a gel state, and even if a part of the urine remains in a sol state. Good.
　シール２４の形成方法は特に限定されない。例えば、外装シート３２，３４を熱可塑性樹脂製フィルムとし、容器本体３０の内面同士を加熱、押圧することにより、熱シールを形成することができる。あるいは、容器本体３０の内面同士を接着剤により接着させてもよい。 The formation method of the seal 24 is not particularly limited. For example, the exterior sheets 32 and 34 are made of a thermoplastic resin film, and the heat seal can be formed by heating and pressing the inner surfaces of the container body 30. Or you may adhere the inner surfaces of the container main body 30 with an adhesive agent.
　シール２４の剥離方法は、シール２４部分に負荷を与えることができればよく、特に限定されない。例えば、上記のように外装シート３２，３４のシール２４周辺部分をつまみ、引っ張る方法のほか、使用者が容器本体３０（第１室１０または第２室２０）を押圧する方法でもよい。シール２４は使用者が通常の力で外装シート３２，３４を引っ張ったり、押圧したりする程度で剥離されるが、ゲル化材２２の自重では剥離されない程度の強度で、容器本体３０の内面同士を接着して形成すればよい。 The method for peeling the seal 24 is not particularly limited as long as it can apply a load to the seal 24 portion. For example, in addition to the method of pinching and pulling the periphery of the seal 24 of the exterior sheets 32 and 34 as described above, a method in which the user presses the container body 30 (the first chamber 10 or the second chamber 20) may be used. The seal 24 is peeled to such an extent that the user pulls or presses the exterior sheets 32 and 34 with a normal force, but the strength of the gel material 22 is not peeled off by its own weight, and the inner surfaces of the container main body 30 are separated from each other. May be formed by bonding.
　本実施形態のように、外装シート３２，３４の表面に一対の把持部４６を設けると、この把持部４６を引っ張ることでシール２４による仕切りを容易に解除できるため好ましい。 It is preferable to provide a pair of gripping portions 46 on the surfaces of the exterior sheets 32 and 34 as in the present embodiment because the partitioning by the seal 24 can be easily released by pulling the gripping portions 46.
　また、本実施形態のように、第２室２０が気相空間２６を含むようにすれば、外装シート３２，３４の第２室部分を押圧することで、シール２４に対して効率的に負荷を与えることができ、シール２４による仕切りを容易に解除できるため好ましい。気相空間２６を構成する気体は、ゲル化材２２との反応性を有しない気体であれば特に限定されず、ヘリウム、アルゴンなどの不活性ガスや、乾燥空気、窒素などを挙げることができる。 Further, if the second chamber 20 includes the gas phase space 26 as in the present embodiment, the load on the seal 24 can be efficiently loaded by pressing the second chamber portions of the exterior sheets 32 and 34. This is preferable because the partition by the seal 24 can be easily released. The gas constituting the gas phase space 26 is not particularly limited as long as the gas does not have reactivity with the gelling material 22, and examples thereof include inert gases such as helium and argon, dry air, and nitrogen. .
　ここで、外装シート３２，３４を押圧する方法より、引っ張る方法でシール２４による仕切りを解除する構成とすることが好ましい。押圧する方法では、ゲル化材２２が勢いよく尿に接触する結果、ゲルに気泡やダマが残留するおそれがあるからである。具体的には、ダマの形成により配置されたゲル化材の最大ゲル化量が減少し、蓄積された尿を完全にゲル化することができなくなるおそれがある。なお、ここでいう「ダマ」とは、ゲルの内部にゲル化できずに残留したゲル化材の集合体のことである。また、引っ張る方法によれば、第２室２０に気相空間２６を設ける必要はなく、第２室２０全体をゲル化材２２で満たすことができるため、省スペースとなる。 Here, it is preferable that the partition by the seal 24 is released by a pulling method rather than a method of pressing the exterior sheets 32 and 34. This is because, in the pressing method, the gelled material 22 vigorously contacts the urine, and as a result, bubbles and lumps may remain in the gel. Specifically, there is a possibility that the maximum gelation amount of the gelled material arranged due to the formation of lumps decreases and the accumulated urine cannot be completely gelled. Here, “dama” refers to an aggregate of gelling materials that remain inside the gel without being gelled. Further, according to the pulling method, it is not necessary to provide the gas phase space 26 in the second chamber 20, and the entire second chamber 20 can be filled with the gelling material 22, which saves space.
　本実施形態のように、仕切り部の仕切りを解除することで、ゲル化材２２が第１室１０へと流入する構成が好ましい。この構成では、尿がゲル化材に対して移動するのではなく、ゲル化材２２が尿へと移動する。尿がゲル化材に対してその上部から接触する場合、ゲル化材が尿を吸収してゲル化する際にゲル内に気泡やダマが残留しやすく、好ましくない。 As in this embodiment, a configuration in which the gelling material 22 flows into the first chamber 10 by releasing the partition of the partition portion is preferable. In this configuration, the urine does not move relative to the gel material, but the gel material 22 moves to the urine. When urine comes into contact with the gelling material from its upper part, when the gelling material absorbs urine and gels, bubbles and lumps tend to remain in the gel, which is not preferable.
　本実施形態のように、第２室２０が第１室１０よりも容器の上方向に位置すると、ゲル化材２２を尿へと移動させて、気泡やダマの残留を抑制した均一なゲルを容易に形成することができ、好ましい。なお、本明細書において「容器の上下方向」は、容器の通常使用状態における鉛直方向と一致する。図１，２では、紙面上方向が容器１００の上方向、紙面下方向が容器１００の下方向となり、第１室１０および第２室２０において、尿およびゲル化材はそれぞれ容器の下方向に溜まる。 As in the present embodiment, when the second chamber 20 is positioned above the container relative to the first chamber 10, the gelling material 22 is moved to the urine, and a uniform gel that suppresses residual bubbles and lumps is obtained. It can be easily formed and is preferable. In the present specification, the “vertical direction of the container” corresponds to the vertical direction in the normal use state of the container. In FIGS. 1 and 2, the upward direction on the paper surface is the upward direction of the container 100, and the downward direction on the paper surface is the downward direction of the container 100. In the first chamber 10 and the second chamber 20, the urine and the gelling material are respectively downward in the container. Accumulate.
　図１（Ａ）に示すように、第１室１０を構成する外装シートには、導尿チューブ４８が接続される導尿口１２が形成される。導尿口１２は、第１室１０から尿が外部に漏れださないよう、逆流防止弁を設けることが好ましい。導尿チューブ４８の先端であるコネクタ４８Ａにも、逆流防止弁を設けることが好ましい。 As shown in FIG. 1 (A), a urine inlet 12 to which the urinary tube 48 is connected is formed in the exterior sheet constituting the first chamber 10. The urine inlet 12 is preferably provided with a backflow prevention valve so that urine does not leak out from the first chamber 10. It is preferable that a connector 48A, which is the tip of the urinary tube 48, is also provided with a backflow prevention valve.
　また、容器１００の任意の箇所、例えばコネクタ４８Ａと導尿口１２の間の導尿チューブ４８や第１室１０の角に、微量の尿を採尿可能な採尿口を設けることができる。 In addition, a urine collection port capable of collecting a small amount of urine can be provided at an arbitrary location of the container 100, for example, at the urine tube 48 between the connector 48A and the urine port 12, or at the corner of the first chamber 10.
　第１室１０、第２室２０の容積は特に限定されない。使い捨て蓄尿バッグの場合、例えば１日分の尿を第１室に収容できればよく、第１室１０の容積は１．０～３．０Ｌとすることができる。このとき、第２室２０は、第１室１０に収容可能な最大量の尿をゲル化することができるゲル化材を収容できればよく、例えばポリアクリル酸系吸水性高分子の場合、１０～２００ｇを収容できればよい。 The volume of the first chamber 10 and the second chamber 20 is not particularly limited. In the case of a disposable urine storage bag, for example, it is only necessary to store one day's worth of urine in the first chamber, and the volume of the first chamber 10 can be 1.0 to 3.0 L. At this time, the second chamber 20 only needs to be able to store a gelling material capable of gelling the maximum amount of urine that can be stored in the first chamber 10. For example, in the case of a polyacrylic acid-based water-absorbing polymer, 10 to 10 What is necessary is just to be able to accommodate 200 g.
　ゲル化材２２は公知のものを用いることができ、例えば合成ポリマーとしては、ポリアクリル酸系樹脂、ポリエチレンオキシド系樹脂、無水マレイン酸系樹脂、ポリスルホン酸系樹脂、ポリアクリルアミド系樹脂、ポリビニルアルコール系樹脂などの材料やその組み合わせ、天然物由来ポリマーとしては、ポリアスパラギン酸系、ポリグルタミン酸系、ポリアルギン酸系、デンプン系、セルロース系、プルラン系、デキストラン系、デキストリン系、その他多糖類の架橋物および、その組み合わせを用いることができる。また、増粘多糖類を始めとする各種増粘材やモンモリロナイト等の粘土鉱物を用いることも可能である。 As the gelling material 22, known materials can be used. For example, as a synthetic polymer, polyacrylic acid resin, polyethylene oxide resin, maleic anhydride resin, polysulfonic acid resin, polyacrylamide resin, polyvinyl alcohol resin can be used. Materials such as resins, combinations thereof, and polymers derived from natural products include polyaspartic acid-based, polyglutamic acid-based, polyalginic acid-based, starch-based, cellulose-based, pullulan-based, dextran-based, dextrin-based, and other polysaccharide cross-linked products. , Combinations thereof can be used. It is also possible to use various thickening materials such as thickening polysaccharides and clay minerals such as montmorillonite.
　ゲル化材２２はまた、上記材料を粉末状としたものを用いることができ、その場合、平均粒径は０．１ｍｍ～４ｍｍが好ましい。特に０．２ｍｍ～２ｍｍがより好ましい。０．１ｍｍ未満の場合、尿を吸収した時に表面で凝固して、それ以上の尿の吸収を阻害し、４ｍｍ超えの場合、尿の吸収効率が悪くなるおそれがあるからである。ゲル化材には単一の粒径を用いても構わないが、異なった粒径のものを組み合わせることもできる。なお、ここでいう「平均粒径」とは、レーザー回折・散乱法によって求めた粒度分布における積算値５０％での粒径を意味する。 As the gelling material 22, a material obtained by powdering the above material can be used. In this case, the average particle size is preferably 0.1 mm to 4 mm. In particular, 0.2 mm to 2 mm is more preferable. If it is less than 0.1 mm, it will coagulate on the surface when urine is absorbed, impairing further urine absorption, and if it exceeds 4 mm, the urine absorption efficiency may deteriorate. A single particle diameter may be used for the gelling material, but those having different particle diameters may be combined. Here, the “average particle size” means the particle size at an integrated value of 50% in the particle size distribution obtained by the laser diffraction / scattering method.
　外装シート３２，３４は厚み０．０１～３ｍｍ程度とし、材料は公知のものを用いればよく、例えばポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリブタジエン、エチレン－酢酸ビニル共重合体の様なポリオレフィン、オレフィン系エラストマー、スチレン系エラストマー等の各種熱可塑性エラストマー、あるいは、これらを任意に組合せたもの（ブレンド樹脂、ポリマーアロイ、積層体等）が挙げられる。そして、使用する樹脂材料は、高圧蒸気滅菌（オートクレーブ滅菌）に耐えられる耐熱性、耐水性あるいは、γ線滅菌、ＥＢ滅菌に耐えられる性質を有していることが好ましい。 The exterior sheets 32 and 34 may have a thickness of about 0.01 to 3 mm and may be made of a known material. For example, polyolefin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutadiene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, olefin elastomer, styrene Examples thereof include various thermoplastic elastomers such as elastomers, and combinations (arrangements such as blend resins, polymer alloys, and laminates) of these. The resin material used preferably has heat resistance and water resistance that can withstand high-pressure steam sterilization (autoclave sterilization) or a property that can withstand γ-ray sterilization and EB sterilization.
　本実施形態では、尿を収容するための容器（蓄尿バッグ）を示したが、本発明は尿に限らず、例えば腹水／胸水、胆汁、消化管液、術野浸出液、脳脊髄液、のドレナージ、腹膜透析液などの生体排液を収容するものであってもよい。 In the present embodiment, a container for storing urine (urine storage bag) is shown. However, the present invention is not limited to urine, and for example, drainage of ascites / pleural effusion, bile, gastrointestinal fluid, operative exudate, and cerebrospinal fluid. Alternatively, it may contain biological drainage such as peritoneal dialysis fluid.
　（実施形態２）
　図３を参照して、本発明の他の実施形態にかかる容器（蓄尿バッグ）２００を説明する。本実施形態は、仕切り部と、その仕切りを解除し、ゲル化材２２を第１室１０に収容される尿と接触可能とする機構の形態が異なる以外は実施形態１の容器１００と同様であるため、実施形態１と異なる点のみ説明する。 (Embodiment 2)
With reference to FIG. 3, the container (urine storage bag) 200 concerning other embodiment of this invention is demonstrated. The present embodiment is the same as the container 100 of the first embodiment except that the partition portion and the mechanism that allows the gelled material 22 to come into contact with the urine stored in the first chamber 10 are different. Therefore, only differences from the first embodiment will be described.
　本実施形態では、仕切り部が、外装シート３２，３４からなる容器本体３０の対向する内面間に接着させたフィルム３６からなる。そして、前記機構は、仕切り部であるフィルム３６が、所定の負荷を与えることにより破れるか、フィルム３６と容器本体の内面との接着が剥離することである。 In this embodiment, the partition portion is made of a film 36 adhered between the opposing inner surfaces of the container body 30 composed of the exterior sheets 32 and 34. And the said mechanism is that the film 36 which is a partition part is torn by giving a predetermined load, or adhesion | attachment with the film 36 and the inner surface of a container main body peels.
　フィルム３６を構成する材料としては、例えば、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリブタジエン、エチレン－酢酸ビニル共重合体の様なポリオレフィン、オレフィン系エラストマー、スチレン系エラストマー等の各種熱可塑性エラストマー、あるいは、これらを任意に組合せたもの（ブレンド樹脂、ポリマーアロイ、積層体等）が挙げられる。そして、使用する樹脂材料は、高圧蒸気滅菌（オートクレーブ滅菌）に耐えられる耐熱性、耐水性あるいは、γ線滅菌、ＥＢ滅菌に耐えられる性質を有していることが好ましい。厚さは０．００１～３ｍｍ程度であり、使用者が通常の力で外装シート３２，３４を引っ張ったり、押圧したりする程度で破れるが、ゲル化材２２の自重では破れない程度の強度とすればよい。フィルム３６と容器本体の内面との接着も同様である。 Examples of the material constituting the film 36 include polyolefins such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutadiene, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, various thermoplastic elastomers such as olefin elastomers and styrene elastomers, or any combination thereof. (Blend resin, polymer alloy, laminate, etc.). The resin material used preferably has heat resistance and water resistance that can withstand high-pressure steam sterilization (autoclave sterilization) or a property that can withstand γ-ray sterilization and EB sterilization. The thickness is about 0.001 to 3 mm, and the strength is such that it can be broken by the user pulling or pressing the exterior sheets 32 and 34 with a normal force, but cannot be broken by the weight of the gelled material 22. do it. The same applies to the bonding between the film 36 and the inner surface of the container body.
　本実施形態の容器２００でも、収容した尿を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、尿をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能である。 Even in the container 200 of the present embodiment, it is possible to measure the amount of the contained urine while it is in a liquid state, observe the properties and colors, and discard the urine in a gel state.
　（実施形態３）
　図４を参照して、本発明の他の実施形態にかかる容器（蓄尿バッグ）３００を説明する。本実施形態は、仕切り部の形態が異なる以外は実施形態１の容器１００と同様であるため、実施形態１と異なる点のみ説明する。 (Embodiment 3)
With reference to FIG. 4, the container (urine storage bag) 300 concerning other embodiment of this invention is demonstrated. Since the present embodiment is the same as the container 100 of the first embodiment except that the partition portion is different, only the differences from the first embodiment will be described.
　本実施形態では、シールが、ゲル化材の下側に位置するシール２４Ａと、容器の上下方向に延在するシール２４Ｂとからなる。そして、シール２４Ａが、容器の正面視横一線ではなく、ジグザグ状になっている。この場合、シール２４Ａの角の部分が最も剥離しやすい。ここで、シール２４Ａの全部が剥離しなくても、シール２４Ａの角の部分が剥離すれば、シール２４Ａの傾斜に沿ってゲル化材２２の全てが第１室１０に落下し、ゲル化材２２が第２室２０に残留しない。なお、ジグザク状に限らず、ゲル化材２２が第２室２０に残留しない条件を満たせばよく、下に凸の山形状のシール、下に凸の台形状のシールであっても構わない。このように、ゲル化材の下側に位置するシール２４Ａの延在方向が、容器の上下方向成分を有すると、ゲル化材２２が第２室２０に残留しにくくなるため、好ましい。 In the present embodiment, the seal includes a seal 24A located below the gelling material and a seal 24B extending in the vertical direction of the container. And the seal | sticker 24A is not the horizontal line of the front view of a container but zigzag shape. In this case, the corner portion of the seal 24A is most easily peeled off. Here, even if not all of the seal 24A is peeled off, if the corner portion of the seal 24A is peeled off, all of the gelling material 22 falls into the first chamber 10 along the inclination of the seal 24A. 22 does not remain in the second chamber 20. The shape is not limited to a zigzag shape, and the gelling material 22 only needs to satisfy the condition that it does not remain in the second chamber 20, and may be a downward convex mountain seal or a downward convex trapezoidal seal. As described above, it is preferable that the extending direction of the seal 24 </ b> A located below the gelling material has the vertical component of the container because the gelling material 22 hardly remains in the second chamber 20.
　実施形態２のフィルム３６をジグザグ状にしても同様の効果を得ることができる。 The same effect can be obtained even if the film 36 of Embodiment 2 is zigzag-shaped.
　本実施形態の容器３００でも、収容した尿を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、尿をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能である。 Also in the container 300 of this embodiment, the amount of the contained urine can be measured in the liquid state, the property and color can be observed, and the urine can be discarded in a gel state.
　（実施形態４）
　図５を参照して、本発明の他の実施形態にかかる容器（蓄尿バッグ）４００を説明する。本実施形態では、２つの第２室２０を設けた以外は、実施形態１と同様である。本実施形態では、実施形態１の場合よりも、適切な量のゲル化材２２を第１室１０中のより広範囲の尿に対して落下させることができる。その結果、気泡やダマの残留をより抑制した均一なゲル化を行うことができる。このように、複数の第２室２０を設けることは、均一なゲル化を行う観点から好ましい。なお、第１室１０を複数設けてもよいことは勿論である。 (Embodiment 4)
With reference to FIG. 5, the container (urine storage bag) 400 concerning other embodiment of this invention is demonstrated. The present embodiment is the same as the first embodiment except that the two second chambers 20 are provided. In the present embodiment, an appropriate amount of the gelling material 22 can be dropped against a wider range of urine in the first chamber 10 than in the case of the first embodiment. As a result, it is possible to perform uniform gelation with further suppression of bubbles and lumps. Thus, providing the plurality of second chambers 20 is preferable from the viewpoint of uniform gelation. Of course, a plurality of first chambers 10 may be provided.
　本実施形態の容器４００でも、収容した尿を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、尿をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能である。 Even in the container 400 of this embodiment, the amount of the contained urine can be measured while the liquid is in a liquid state, the property and color can be observed, and the urine can be discarded in a gel state.

　図６を参照して、本発明の他の実施形態にかかる容器（蓄尿バッグ）５００を説明する。 (Embodiment 5)
With reference to FIG. 6, the container (urine storage bag) 500 concerning other embodiment of this invention is demonstrated.
　本実施形態では、容器本体３０は第１室１０を構成している。そして、容器本体３０の内部である第１室１０に、ゲル化材２２を収容した仕切り部としてのケース３８を配置する。ケース３８は、容器本体３０の内部の上端に取り付けられている。ケース３８の内部が第２室２０に相当する。ケース３８は、例えばポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリブタジエン、エチレン－酢酸ビニル共重合体の様なポリオレフィン、オレフィン系エラストマー、スチレン系エラストマー等の各種熱可塑性エラストマー、あるいは、これらを任意に組合せたもの（ブレンド樹脂、ポリマーアロイ、積層体等）といった材料から構成することができる。 In this embodiment, the container body 30 constitutes the first chamber 10. And the case 38 as a partition part which accommodated the gelatinization material 22 is arrange | positioned in the 1st chamber 10 inside the container main body 30. FIG. The case 38 is attached to the upper end inside the container body 30. The inside of the case 38 corresponds to the second chamber 20. The case 38 is made of, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutadiene, polyolefin such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, various thermoplastic elastomers such as olefin elastomer and styrene elastomer, or any combination thereof (blend resin, Polymer alloy, laminate, etc.).
　ケース３８の下端には、クリック４０が設けられている。クリック４０は、容器本体３０の外部から容易に折ることができる。クリック４０を折ると、第２室２０のゲル化材２２が第１室１０へと落下し、ゲル化材２２が尿と接触することによりゲル化する。すなわち、クリック４０が、仕切り部による仕切りを解除し、ゲル化材２２を第１室１０に収容される尿と接触可能とする機構に相当する。 A click 40 is provided at the lower end of the case 38. The click 40 can be easily folded from the outside of the container body 30. When the click 40 is folded, the gelling material 22 in the second chamber 20 falls into the first chamber 10, and the gelling material 22 gels by contacting with urine. That is, the click 40 corresponds to a mechanism that releases the partition by the partition part and enables the gelling material 22 to come into contact with urine stored in the first chamber 10.
　本実施形態の容器５００でも、収容した尿を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、尿をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能である。 Even in the container 500 of this embodiment, the amount of the contained urine can be measured in the liquid state, the property and color can be observed, and the urine can be discarded in a gel state.
　（実施形態６）
　図７を参照して、本発明の他の実施形態にかかる容器（蓄尿バッグ）６００を説明する。 (Embodiment 6)
With reference to FIG. 7, the container (urine storage bag) 600 concerning other embodiment of this invention is demonstrated.
　本実施形態では、容器本体３０は第１室１０を構成している。そして、容器本体３０の内部である第１室１０に、内部にゲル化材２２を収容した仕切り部としての球状のカバー４２（袋体）を配置する。カバー４２は、容器本体３０の内部に固定されることなく配置される。カバー４２の内部は密閉されており、第２室２０に相当する。 In this embodiment, the container body 30 constitutes the first chamber 10. And the spherical cover 42 (bag body) as a partition part which accommodated the gelatinization material 22 in the inside is arrange | positioned in the 1st chamber 10 which is the inside of the container main body 30. FIG. The cover 42 is disposed without being fixed inside the container body 30. The inside of the cover 42 is sealed and corresponds to the second chamber 20.
　仕切り部による仕切りを解除し、ゲル化材２２を第１室１０に収容される尿と接触可能とする機構は、カバー４２によるゲル化材２２の封止を解除する手段であれば特に限定されない。例えば、図７に示すように、容器本体３０の内部に針４４を設けることができる。このとき、第１室１０に尿が溜まり液面が上昇するにつれて、カバー４２も上昇する。よって、廃棄する前に針４４によってカバー４２を割ることによって、第２室２０のゲル化材２２が第１室１０へと広がり、ゲル化材２２が尿と接触することによりゲル化する。また、カバー４２を外装シートの外側から押圧することで破ることができる程度の強度で構成してもよい。カバー４２は、例えばポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリブタジエン、エチレン－酢酸ビニル共重合体の様なポリオレフィン、オレフィン系エラストマー、スチレン系エラストマー等の各種熱可塑性エラストマー、あるいは、これらを任意に組合せたもの（ブレンド樹脂、ポリマーアロイ、積層体等）などの材料からなる厚み０．００１～３．０ｍｍのカバーとすることができる。 The mechanism for releasing the partition by the partitioning portion and allowing the gelling material 22 to come into contact with the urine accommodated in the first chamber 10 is not particularly limited as long as it is a means for releasing the sealing of the gelling material 22 by the cover 42. . For example, as shown in FIG. 7, a needle 44 can be provided inside the container body 30. At this time, as urine accumulates in the first chamber 10 and the liquid level rises, the cover 42 also rises. Therefore, by breaking the cover 42 with the needle 44 before discarding, the gelling material 22 in the second chamber 20 spreads into the first chamber 10, and gelation occurs when the gelling material 22 comes into contact with urine. Moreover, you may comprise with the intensity | strength of the grade which can be broken by pressing the cover 42 from the outer side of an exterior sheet. The cover 42 is, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polybutadiene, polyolefin such as ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, various thermoplastic elastomers such as olefin elastomer, styrene elastomer, or any combination thereof (blend resin, A cover having a thickness of 0.001 to 3.0 mm made of a material such as a polymer alloy or a laminate can be used.
　また、カバー４２をポリグリコール酸（ＰＧＡ）、ポリ乳酸（ＰＬＬＡ）、乳酸／カプロラクトン共重合体（ＬＣＬ）、グリコール酸／乳酸共重合体（ＰＧＬＡ）やポリジオキサノン（ＰＤＯ）、ポリエチレンオキシド（ＰＥＯ）とポリテレフタル酸ブチレン（ＰＢＴ）のマルチブロック共重合体など尿で溶ける材料とすれば、厚みを設計することにより尿を第１室１０に導入してから所望の時間経過後に、カバー４２による封止が解除され、ゲル化材２２のゲル化が開始する。 The cover 42 is made of polyglycolic acid (PGA), polylactic acid (PLLA), lactic acid / caprolactone copolymer (LCL), glycolic acid / lactic acid copolymer (PGLA), polydioxanone (PDO), polyethylene oxide (PEO). If the material is soluble in urine such as polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) multi-block copolymer, it is sealed by the cover 42 after a desired time has elapsed since the urine was introduced into the first chamber 10 by designing the thickness. Is released, and gelation of the gelling material 22 starts.
　本実施形態の容器６００でも、収容した尿を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、尿をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能である。 Also in the container 600 of this embodiment, the amount of the contained urine can be measured in the liquid state, the property and color can be observed, and the urine can be discarded in a gel state.
　本発明によれば、収容した生体排液を液状のままで量を計測したり性状や色を観察したりすることができ、かつ、生体排液をゲルの状態で廃棄することが可能な簡易な構成の容器を提供することができる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to measure the amount of living biological waste liquid while it is in a liquid state or to observe properties and colors, and to easily discard the biological waste liquid in a gel state.
