Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[Industrial application] Intestinal wash drainage used in intestinal washing devices used in bowel washing for people who have difficulty in bowel movement, such as bedridden elderly people and colostomy stoma users, or for bowel washing performed for beauty and health. The present invention relates to a device for separating intestinal solids that separates and removes fecal matter contained in a liquid.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, as the population ages, the number of bedridden elderly people has been increasing. In addition, about half of people with physical disabilities due to traffic accidents or congenital factors are accompanied by nerve palsy. For these people, although the treatment of excrement is a major problem in daily life, urinary devices are only being developed as excretion devices, and laxatives are still required for excretion of feces. A method of encouraging defecation by enema or defecation is adopted.

Further, it is known that fecal matter in which feces are stored in the intestine for a long period of time is not preferable for beauty and health, and intestinal washing is performed particularly for beauty of women.

[0004] As a method of introducing the intestinal washing solution for intestinal washing, an intestinal washing container is suspended at a higher position than the person to be washed.
There are known a method of introducing a water drop by a tube or the like, a method of feeding a liquid by a pump, a method of using a discharge pressure of tap water, and the like.

In the method using the head, the infusion rate of the intestinal wash,
The injection pressure or the like may not be constant or may be insufficient. In the method of feeding liquid by a pump, control of injection pressure is complicated. When tap water discharge pressure is used, it is impossible to accurately adjust the injection pressure and the injection amount.

[0006] Since the operation of these bowel washing methods is complicated, the burden is large even when the person to be washed has a caregiver, not to mention the case where the person to be washed has its own bowel.

[0007] Under such circumstances, a method of automatically operating the system by electronically controlling a pressure control, a liquid feed pump, and the like is being studied. In addition, there is a demand for improving the odor and scatter of filth during the bowel washing operation and the processing environment thereof by treating the intestinal wash drainage with a treatment tool which is generally closed.

[0008] When considering an automatic treatment or a treatment of a substantially closed system, solid components of feces are likely to be clogged in the channel through which the intestinal washings and intestinal drainage are circulated. Becomes larger.

[0009]

As the pressure detecting means 57, for example, a pressure sensor such as a diffusion type semiconductor pressure sensor is suitably used. The information obtained by the pressure detecting means 57 is mainly used for controlling the air supply and exhaust in the air supply and exhaust circuit 52. For example, when the inside of the decompression / pressurization chamber 51 is set to the decompression state or the pressurization state, based on the information obtained by the pressure detection means 57, the pressure in the decompression / pressurization chamber 51 is kept constant, for example. Alternatively, control can be performed so as not to exceed a preset limit (lower limit value during depressurization or upper limit value during pressurization).

As the pressure detecting means 67, the same one as the pressure detecting means 57 can be used. Based on the information obtained by the pressure detecting means 67, the pressure of the decompression / pressurizing chamber 61 is set to, for example, a constant value. , Or so as not to exceed a preset limit (lower limit for depressurization or upper limit for pressurization).

The pressure control range is -220 to 200 mmH

When the intestinal juice in the storage container 3 is heated by the heating means 42, the control means 30 controls the temperature of the intestinal washing liquid to be close to the set temperature based on the temperature information detected by the temperature sensor 43. The temperature is controlled so as to be maintained at For example, when the temperature of the intestinal juice detected by the temperature sensor 43 reaches the upper limit of the set temperature range while the intestinal juice in the storage container 3 is heated by operating the heating means 42, the heating means 4
After the operation of Step 2 is stopped, and after a predetermined time has elapsed or when the temperature of the intestinal wash reaches the lower limit of the set temperature range, control is performed such that the heating means 42 is operated. The set temperature range of the intestinal washing solution or the health support solution is set to a temperature slightly higher than the body temperature in consideration of the temperature around the body temperature or the temperature drop in the flow channel, for example, about 35 to 42 ° C.

The pressure in the decompression / pressurization chamber 51 is adjusted so as to be equal to the set outflow amount set in advance. In this case, it is possible to control based on the detection value of the pressure detecting means 57 so that the pressure in the decompression / pressurization chamber 51 does not exceed a preset upper limit value.
