Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a method of disposing of a portable toilet, and more particularly to a method of disposing of urine water and a portable toilet separately.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

2. Description of the Related Art Portable toilets have traditionally been useful because they allow people to relieve themselves in places where toilet facilities are not available, such as in cars, fishing boats, yachts, and sightseeing buses. Therefore, various proposals have been made regarding portable toilets. For example, in Utility Model Application Publication No. 59-72998,
A portable toilet made of a synthetic resin sheet is equipped with a water-soluble pouch filled with a water-absorbing agent, and after use, urine water turns into a gel within a few seconds to several tens of seconds, and some of the urine water is released through the opening. It is introduced that it not only prevents leakage but also allows for easy disposal.

However, in this proposal, since the urine water is in a gelled state, when disposing of it, the synthetic resin sheet bag containing the gelled urine water should be treated as ordinary garbage. The problem arose because urine water was not included in the garbage disposal standards.

[Means for solving problems]

Therefore, the present invention was created with a focus on solving such problems, and in particular, it allows gelled urine water to be easily drained from a portable toilet, and it is possible to easily dispose of gelled urine water and to process urine water and portable toilets. An object of the present invention is to provide a method for disposing of a portable toilet that can be used to perform various tasks.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The structure of the present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows a state in which a portable toilet used in an embodiment of the present invention is used, FIG. 2 shows a state in which the portable toilet is sealed after use, and FIG. 3 shows a developed view.

First, the portable toilet used in this example will be described.

That is, as shown in Fig. 3, the one-handed portable toilet is made of rectangular cardboard 1 coated with polyethylene resin (the cardboard 1 is a pack that can hold about 1.8 liters of liquid such as alcohol, milk, water, etc.). (The pack is relatively rigid and retains its shape even when containing liquid, and does not bend easily.) Make vertical creases 2 and 3, fold along the creases 2 and 3 to form a front plate and a back plate, and then heat seal the overlapped bottom edges and sides 6 and 7 to form a relatively long rod-shaped piece. An envelope-shaped bag 5 is formed (for example, the length is 28 cm and the width is 10 cm, but the length is at least twice the width).

Further, the bag 5 is provided with a third fold 4 in the downward lateral direction and a fourth crease 8 in the shape of a crescent that intersects with these folds 2, 3, and 4. A leaf-shaped bottom part 9 is formed along the bag body 5, and the opened state is maintained when the bag body 5 is opened.

Furthermore, fifth and sixth folds 10 and 11 are formed in the upper part of the bag body 5 in the transverse direction, and after use, the fifth and sixth folds are first made.
until it is adhered to the surface of the bag body 5 along the fold line 10 of
Fold it downward, then fold it upward along the sixth fold line 11 until it adheres to the portion folded by the fifth fold line 10, and the bag body 5 is bonded. In addition,
The bag 5 has the cardboard 1 coated with a resin as described above, and since the urine water is turned into a gel as described later, the bag 5 can be sealed by simply bending and pressing. As a precaution, the fifth and sixth
A double-sided adhesive tape 12 is attached between the folds 10 and 11, and is folded upward at the sixth fold 11 to maintain the adhesive state completely. Therefore, the urine inside the bag body 5 never leaks.

Next, the shape of the edge 14 of the opening 13 of the bag 5 is as follows:
The bag 5 is made of cardboard 1, so the edge 1
4 is covered with a soft foam sheet 15 for edging.

Further, a seventh fold 16, 16 is formed slightly above the middle of the body of the bag 5 by two circular arcs intersecting the vertical folds 2, 3, and an opening 13 is formed before use. , the longitudinal folds 2 and 3 are grasped and pressed with one hand along the seventh fold to form a leaf-shaped grasping part.

Next, for the one-handed portable toilet of this embodiment, a powdered coloring and coagulating agent that colors urine water and turns it into a gel is prepared and used as an accessory.
That is, a water-soluble pouch (not shown) is filled with a mixture of a colorant and a coagulant.The colorant is Blue No. 1, which is used as a food coloring agent, and the coagulant is a water-absorbing resin. Acrylamide is used. For the one-handed portable toilet of this example, a mixture of 0.01 g of pigment, 0.25 g of antibacterial/antifungal agent, and 5 g of water-absorbing resin is sufficient.
When in use, the first pouch filled with these agents is placed inside the bag body 5 in advance and used. After urinating, urine turns blue, so even if urine spills, it won't look like urine. In addition, the coagulant causes the urine water to swell with the water-absorbing resin and turn into a gel.

Next, after using the portable toilet, carry it to your home or a suitable place and dispose of it, but as mentioned above, when disposing of it, the gelled urine water and the bag body 5 should not be treated as raw garbage. Therefore, the urine water and the bag body 5 must be treated separately. Therefore, for example, the sixth fold 11 of the bag body 5 is raised, the double-sided adhesive tape 12 is peeled off, and then the fifth fold 10 is raised and the opening 13 is opened to remove the gelled urine water. However, in the present invention, the gelled urine water is returned to its original liquid state using a dissolving agent made of mirabilite, common salt, etc., and then flushed into a flush toilet.

In other words, the second
By preparing a small bag (not shown), adding the dissolving agent to the gelled urine water in the bag body 5, and shaking the rigid bag body 5, stirring becomes easy and the urine water turns into a liquid. It comes back up easily, so just flush it down the toilet. Of course, the bag body 5 is designed to be incinerated.

Since this embodiment is configured as described above, it is used as follows. So, when you go to relieve yourself,
Fold the bag 5 along the third fold line to form a crease. Next, along the seventh fold 16, the first
As shown in the figure, squeeze and press between the thumb and fingers of one hand, and push up the bottom 9 along the fourth fold 8. The first pouch filled with the coloring and coagulating agent is placed inside the bag body 5 in such a state, and the bag is applied to private parts, for example, while sitting on a car seat or with the waist slightly lifted.
After refreshing, fold the fifth fold 10 downward and the sixth fold 11 upward, and then seal with double-sided adhesive tape 12. The bag body 5 in such a state,
You can put it in a separately prepared plastic bag.
For disposal, the bag 5 is taken back to a toilet, the opening 13 is opened, a dissolving agent is added, the gelled urine water is returned to liquid, and the bag is flushed into a flush toilet. The bag body 5 is incinerated.

In this embodiment, the envelope-shaped bag is made of resin-coated cardboard, but the present invention is not limited to this, and any bag with an opening that can be easily opened and closed can be used with a vinyl sheet. It can also be applied to a bag made of.

In summary, since the present invention employs the configuration described in the claims, the following effects are achieved.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the urine water coagulant is pre-filled in the bag, the urine water gels when urinating, and not only does it prevent some of the urine water from spilling out from the opening of the bag, but the gelled urine water can also be disposed of. When washing, a solubilizer is added to turn the gelled urine water back into a liquid, so it is not only easier to drain than the bag, but also flushable in a flush toilet, and the urine water and the bag are separated. It is now possible to treat waste separately, and it is possible to meet waste disposal standards.
