An article (1; 100) for collecting urine (300) and stools (400) of a user, the article having a support surface (10A) for supporting the buttocks of the user; and a chamber (20) that communicates with an opening (10E) defined by the support surface (10A) and that presents a bottom portion (22); and a spacer (10) suitable for maintaining the bottom portion at a distance from the support surface. The article has an internal wall element (23; 123) that is situated at a position vertically intermediate between the support surface (10A) and the bottom portion (22) and that is suitable for adopting a first configuration and a second configuration. In the first configuration, the internal wall element forms an obstacle for substantially preventing stools (400) from passing to the bottom while allowing communication for urine (300). In the second configuration, the obstacle is substantially eliminated so as to allow stools to pass to the bottom of the chamber (20).

An inflatable bedpan that includes: an opening; a removable waste bag; a drawstring attached to the distal end of the removable waste bag; a hook and loop attachment for attaching the waste bag to the inner portion of the opening; a side opening to allow the removal of waste bag; an air input valve; and a bleed valve. The inflatable bedpan further includes a drawstring at the distal end of the waste bag and a flap to cover the side opening during none use.

A method for cleaning and sterilizing an excreta handling device includes: positioning one end and the other end of the suction pipe on the same line; driving the pump to supply the cleaning water to a preset water level in the inner space through the first nozzle part; and maintaining, for a predetermined time, a state in which the cleaning water has been supplied to the preset water level, and then driving the suction part to suck the cleaning water contained in the inner space.

An excreta disposal apparatus with a gender-specific module includes a body having a seating unit corresponding in shape to the curved shape of the genital area and buttocks of a human body, a urine disposal unit corresponding to the genital area of the human body, an excrement disposal unit corresponding to the buttocks of the human body and a disposal space open toward the genital area and buttocks of the human body to take excreta discharged from the human body. A main body unit, connected to the seating unit, is mounted between the legs of the human body and has an accommodation space therein. A discharge channel is provided in the accommodation space and communicates with the disposal space to discharge the excreta in the disposal space to the outside. The body includes the gender-specific module, which is detachably provided and includes the urine disposal unit.

A patient-support sling is at least partially disposable in a recessed area of the mattress, the sling being tiltably supported by a frame and carrying a waste receptacle. The sling has an aperture and at least one opening, the opening being larger in area than a bedsore. The sling is configured to enable selective relocation of the opening, thereby enabling an accommodation of bed sores for reducing incidence and severity thereof. The receptacle is removably attachable to the pelvic support member and disposable in part below the aperture for receiving eliminated waste of the user.

Disclosed is a nursing machine that includes a wearable working head and a urine detection circuit. The urine detection circuit includes at least two first urine sensors and at least two second urine sensors that are arranged on the working head. In response to more than one first urine sensor each outputting a liquid detected signal or in response to more than one second urine sensor each outputting the liquid detected signal, the urine detection circuit is configured to output a urine signal. In response to only one first urine sensor or only one second urine sensor outputting the liquid detected signal or in response to only one first urine sensor and only one second urine sensor each outputting the liquid detected signal, the urine detection circuit doesn't output the urine signal.

The present invention aims for providing an excrement treatment device capable of directly discharging sewage in a sewage tank to the outside sewers by a compressed air supplied from the excrement treatment device. The present invention includes a step of opening a suction port of a suction valve 44 of a sewage tank 19 and closing a water discharge valve 46 of the sewage tank 19; a step of sucking air in the sewage tank 19 from an air inlet/outlet 45 of the sewage tank 19 and sucking a sewage from a pipe connected to a suction port of the suction valve 44 to store the sewage; a step of closing the suction port of the suction valve 44 of the sewage tank 19 and opening the water discharge valve 46 of the sewage tank 19; and a step of injecting a compressed air into the air inlet/outlet of the sewage tank 19 to discharge the stored sewage to an outside from the water discharge valve 46.

An excrement cleaning device comprises a body made of hard material and a cup body made of soft material. The body comprises a base, a support base, a flushing member, and a cleaning member. The support base is longitudinally formed at a rear end of the base. At least one water outlet is provided at the top of the support base. The flushing member is extendingly disposed at the base and is connected to the flushing port. The cleaning member is embedded in the support base. One side of the cup body is disposed at the body while the other side comprises a cup opening. A periphery of the cup opening is provided with a lip in contact with hip of user. A sheet body of the lip extends outward to form a hip enclosing area corresponding to the hip.

A bedpan having a housing including a chamber, a top portion including an opening to the chamber and having a circumferential edge, a proximal surface including an apron surrounding the opening, the apron extending from a circumferential edge of the proximal surface to the circumferential edge of the opening, and an angled side wall surrounding the apron, and a bottom portion including a distal surface opposite the proximal surface, and a distal edge of the distal surface, the chamber positioned interior to the housing, the side walls of the chamber being interior to the side wall such that there is space between the walls of the chamber and the side wall, the side wall angled outward as it extends from the circumferential edge of the proximal surface towards the distal edge of the distal surface, and a first handle formed on a first portion of the housing.
