Device for disposing excrement

Abstract

A device for disposing excrement comprising: a diaper cup 1 for enveloping a lumbar/gluteal region of a human body; and a device body C connected to the diaper cup 1 for supplying washing water to the inside of the diaper cup and for sucking excrements and sewage from the inside of the diaper cup 1. The device body C includes: a suction motor 21 for establishing a vacuum to suck the excrements and the sewage; a water supply pump 5 for supplying the washing water; and a sequencer 12 for controlling the suction motor 21 and the water supply pump 5. The sequencer 12 includes intermittent drive means S4 to S8 or S24 to S29 for controlling the drive of the water supply pump 5 by setting time parameters according to the sense signals of the feces sensor 109 and the urine sensor 114. The device washes the excrements in the diaper cup efficiently in a mode matching the kind of the excrements in the diaper cup, without making the diaper cup wearer feel uncomfortable, by discriminating the excrement kind with the feces sensor and the urine sensor, and promotes the excretion of a patient who could not otherwise excrete, by stimulating the patient properly with intermittent injections of washing water.
