DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a disposable diaper such as a paper diaper.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, care receivers such as bedridden elderly people cannot wear disposable diapers, and thus often wear disposable diapers. This disposable diaper has a stomach pad, a crotch pad, and a back pad that are formed in a series, and both sides of the stomach pad and the back pad are fastened with fastening tape when worn. Such disposable diapers are replaced regularly or after the care of the cared person. At that time, if the fastening tape is removed and the belly pad is spread forward, urine may adhere from the front abdomen to the crotch and stool may adhere from the buttocks to the back of the waist. Therefore, the caregiver removes dirt by wiping the back of the waist from the front abdomen of the cared person with a large number of tissues.

[0003]

However, since the tissue penetrates the liquid, the excrement liquid may permeate and adhere to the hand if not treated quickly, which is not only unpleasant but also unfavorable for hygiene. . For this reason, a large amount of tissue is quickly used, but a large amount of tissue after wiping may fall on clothes or a bed and stain the surroundings. Also, disposable gloves may be used with care. When a large amount of tissue or disposable gloves is used in this way, there arises a problem that daily costs for nursing and childcare increase.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and is intended to provide a diaper capable of wiping a user's body without using another glove or a large amount of tissue when changing the diaper. For the purpose of providing.

In a diaper in which the side portion and the left and right side portions of the backrest portion are detachably fastened, a pocket portion into which fingers are inserted is provided on the outer surface of the liquid-impermeable sheet in the belly portion. .

[0006] In the above structure, the pocket portion may include:
It is provided on the left side and / or right side of the belly pad.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a bottom view of the diaper according to an embodiment of the present invention in an unfolded state, FIG. 2 is a plan view of the diaper in an unfolded state, FIG. 3 is an end view taken along line AA in FIG. 2, and FIG. It is an external view of a diaper. In each figure,
The diaper 1 according to this embodiment includes a liquid-impermeable sheet 2 made of polyethylene or the like that does not allow urine or the like to pass through, a liquid-permeable sheet 3 attached on the liquid-impermeable sheet 2, and a liquid-impermeable sheet. 2 and an absorbent body 4 interposed between the liquid-permeable sheets 3.

The liquid impermeable sheet 2 is formed in a dumbbell shape in which both sides at the center in the front-rear direction are inwardly concave. The liquid-permeable sheet 3 is formed in substantially the same size and shape as the liquid-impermeable sheet 2 and is made of a nonwoven fabric through which urine and the like pass. The outer periphery of the absorber 4 is formed smaller than the periphery of the liquid impermeable sheet 2 and is made of cotton-like pulp or the like that absorbs and retains the liquid. The liquid-impermeable sheet 2 and the liquid-permeable sheet 3 have a peripheral portion where they are overlapped, that is, the absorber 4.
Are bonded with a hot melt adhesive or the like.

The diaper 1 is provided with a crotch pad 5 applied to the crotch of the care receiver (user) P, and a stomach pad 6 extending forward from the crotch pad 5 when viewed from the point of attachment. , And a back support 7 extending rearward from the crotch support 5. Tape-like first fastening members 9, 9, 9, 9 are attached to the left side portion 7L and the right side portion 7R of the backrest 7, respectively. The upper surfaces of the first fastening members 9, 9, 9, 9 are:
Adhesive or hook-and-loop fasteners (eg hook-shaped)
Are formed as fastening surfaces 9A, 9A, 9A, 9A.
On the lower surface (outer surface) of the liquid impermeable sheet 2 in the belly pad 6, a smooth surface or a hook-and-loop fastener engaging portion (for example, a loop shape)
The sheet-like second fastening member 8 having the following is attached.
The adhesive or hook-shaped engaging portion of the first fastening member 9 is detachably fastened to the smooth surface or the loop-shaped engaging portion of the second fastening member 8. The second fastening member 8 is bonded to the liquid impermeable sheet 2 with a hot melt adhesive or the like except for the pockets 15, 17, and 19 (to be described in detail later).

The liquid-permeable sheet 3 is folded at the bases 10 and 10 as indicated by the two-dot chain line, and is folded at the ends 11 and 11 at the mountain. Thereby, two three-dimensional gathers 21 and 21 protruding toward the use surface side are formed along the front-back direction of the liquid-permeable sheet 3. Thread rubbers 13 are attached near the tips 11, 11, respectively. Solid gather 2
The vicinity of the front and rear end portions of the reference numerals 1 and 21 is adhered with a hot melt adhesive or the like to form the contact portions 12, 12, 12, 12. Thread rubbers 14 are also provided on the left and right edges of the crotch pad 5,
14 are respectively attached.

A pocket portion 15 is provided on the outer surface of the liquid-impermeable sheet 3 in the belly pad portion 6, that is, between the liquid-impermeable sheet 2 and the second fastening member 8. The pocket portion 15 is disposed at the center of the belly pad 6 in the left-right direction.
At the position farthest from the front end 6g of the belly pad 6 in the pocket 15 (position near the back pad 7), the pocket 1
An opening 16 communicating with 5 is formed in the second fastening member 8.

The left side 6L and the right side 6R of the belly pad 6
Also, pocket portions 17 and 19 are provided between the liquid impermeable sheet 2 and the second fastening member 8, respectively. In this case as well, the pocket portion 1 is located farthest from the side end 6f of the stomach contact portion 6 in the pocket portion 17 (position closer to the left and right center).
An opening 18 communicating with 7 is formed in the second fastening member 8. The side end 6 of the belly pad 6 in the pocket 19
An opening 20 communicating with the pocket portion 19 is formed in the second fastening member 8 at a position farthest from e (a position closer to the left and right center).

The pockets 15, 17, 19 and the openings 16, 18, 20 are formed in such a size that the finger H can be inserted. Here, “the finger is inserted” means that at least the number of fingers (for example, two or more fingers) capable of operating the stomach pad 6 and wiping the waste is inserted. Is sufficient. Of course, it may be large enough to fit into the back or wrist. The shape of the pockets 15, 17, and 19 is not particularly limited, and is not limited to the above-described rectangular shape. For example, a five-finger glove type or a mitten glove type may be used. When the pocket portion is formed in such a glove type, since the fingers do not largely displace in the pocket portion, a fine wiping operation can be performed.

Subsequently, an embodiment in which the diaper 1 having the above configuration is used will be described. First, the backrest 7 of the diaper 1 is inserted under the buttocks of the care receiver. Subsequently, the crotch pad 5 is applied to the crotch, and the stomach pad 6 is brought to the abdomen of the care receiver and applied. Next, left and right first fastening members 9, 9, 9, 9
Is fixed to the second fastening members 8 of the left side portion 6L and the right side portion 6R, thereby completing the mounting of the diaper 1.

After the care recipient's stool, the caregiver removes the first fastening members 9, 9, 9, 9 from the second fastening members 8. And
As shown in FIG. 5, a finger H is put into the pocket portion 15 through the opening 16, and first, dirt adhering to the crotch from the front abdomen of the care receiver is wiped off with the liquid-permeable sheet 3 inside the stomach pad 6. . Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the care receiver P lifts his or her feet, and then wipes them from the buttocks to the back.

In this case, the finger H is located outside the liquid-impermeable sheet 2, and the excrement liquid does not pass through the liquid-impermeable sheet 2. Therefore, the finger H is comfortable and sanitary without touching the dirt without using another glove. Further, since the liquid-permeable sheet 3 can sufficiently wipe off dirt, the number of tissues to be used is drastically reduced, and daily costs for nursing care can be saved. Then, after the wiping, if the dirt 22 on the liquid-permeable sheet 3 is wrapped as it is and rounded, urine and the like are not leaked out by the liquid-impermeable sheet 2 of the outer layer, and can be discarded with confidence.

On the other hand, after the belly pad 6 is spread forward from between the legs, the care receiver P is turned sideways, for example, to the right as shown in FIG. Then, when the finger H is inserted into the right pocket 19 as viewed in the drawing, the buttocks and the back can be wiped with the liquid-permeable sheet 3 on the inner surface of the left portion 6L. Although illustration is omitted, when the care receiver P is turned to the left, the finger H is inserted into the pocket portion 17 to wipe the buttocks and the back.

By the way, if there is no pocket portion as described above, and the user tries to wipe the outer surface of the belly pad 6 by wiping it,
The hand may slip from the stomach pad 6 and touch the waste. However, in the diaper 1, since the fingers are stored in the pockets, it is possible to prevent the fingers H from sliding from the stomach pad 6 and touching dirt during wiping. In addition, the openings 16, 18, 20 are located at the specific positions described above.
Are provided, the tips of the fingers H inserted into the pockets 15, 17, and 19 are all the edges of the belly pad 6,
That is, it stops facing the front end 6g, the side end 6f, and the side end 6e. Thereby, the finger H is more difficult to slide down from the belly pad 6, and the liquid permeable sheet 3 of the belly pad 6 can be fully utilized to the end.

Therefore, the wiping operation can be easily performed, and the operation can be completed quickly. In addition, since the liquid-permeable sheet 3 for wiping waste is a part of the diaper 1, the liquid-permeable sheet 3 is not scattered unlike the case where a separate tissue is used, and the surroundings are hardly stained. As described above, the diaper 1 of the present embodiment can be used not only for a care recipient such as a bedridden elderly person, but also for a baby or a menstrual bath, and reduces the burden of work and expenses related to nursing and childcare. It is.

In the above embodiment, an example is shown in which pockets 15, 17, and 19 are provided at the center and the left and right sides of the belly pad 6, but the diaper of the present invention is not limited to this. . For example, like the diaper 1a shown in FIG. 8, a pocket 15 is provided on the second fastening member 8a having the same configuration as the above-described second fastening member 8 at the center in the left-right direction of the belly pad 6.
It may be one in which only a is arranged. Alternatively, the present invention includes one having either one of the left and right side pocket portions 17 and 19.

Further, the pocket portion has a second fastening member 8, 8a.
It is not limited to the one provided between the sheet and the liquid impermeable sheet 2. For example, a sheet material 23 as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 8 is laminated between the second fastening members 8, 8 a and the liquid impermeable sheet 2, and between the liquid impermeable sheet 2 and the sheet material 23. A pocket (not shown) is provided, and a pocket opening (not shown) is formed in the sheet material 23.
May be formed. Further, a sheet material 24 is attached to the outer surface of the liquid-impermeable sheet 2 in the backrest 7 with a hot melt adhesive or the like, and a pocket portion 25 is provided between the sheet material 24 and the liquid-impermeable sheet 2. The opening 26 may be formed in the sheet material 24. With such a configuration, the backrest 7
Since the diaper 1a is replaced when the infant is to be replaced, the diaper 1a is removed and the fingers can be put in the pocket 25 to easily wipe the ass when the diaper 1a is replaced.

[0021]

As described above in detail, according to the diaper according to the present invention, after the diaper is replaced, the stomach rest is removed from the back rest and the fingers are inserted into the pocket as it is to stomach rest. Dirt can be wiped off with the liquid-permeable sheet on the inner surface of the part. Moreover, there is no need to use another glove or a large amount of tissue. Therefore, it is possible to reduce wiping work and cost burden when changing diapers.

When the pocket is provided on the left and / or right side of the belly pad, fingers can be inserted into the left or right pocket to wipe the user's body side. In particular, it is suitable for wiping the back and buttocks of a user laid down sideways.
