DIAPER SENSOR, DISPOSABLE DIAPER, AND DISPOSABLE DIAPER KIT
Provided is a paper diaper having a structure capable of more reliably sensing a state of a diaper sensor being soaked in liquid. A diaper sensor 100 includes a sheet-shaped wetness detection sensor device 90 having a circuit 60 breakable or damageable when getting wet with liquid. The diaper sensor 100 includes a highly water-permeable sheet 85 forming the surface of the diaper sensor 100 arranged on a user's body surface side, and at least any one of a first water-absorbing sheet 81 interposed between the highly water-permeable sheet 85 and the wetness detection sensor device 90 or a second water-absorbing sheet 83 arranged on the opposite side of the wetness detection sensor device 90 from the highly water-permeable sheet 85 side.
1 . A diaper sensor including a sheet-shaped wetness detection sensor device having a circuit breakable or damageable when getting wet with liquid, comprising:
a highly water-permeable sheet forming a surface of the diaper sensor arranged on a user's body surface side; and
at least any one of a first water-absorbing sheet interposed between the highly water-permeable sheet and the wetness detection sensor device or a second water-absorbing sheet arranged on an opposite side of the wetness detection sensor device from a highly water-permeable sheet side.
2 . The diaper sensor according to claim 1 , wherein
both the first water-absorbing sheet and the second water-absorbing sheet are included in the diaper sensor.
3 . The diaper sensor according to claim 1 , wherein
the wetness detection sensor device includes
a board having a base, a first conductive pattern formed on the base, and a mount component electrically connected to the first conductive pattern, and
a second conductive pattern forming the circuit together with the first conductive pattern in a complementary manner,
a portion of the base corresponding to the second conductive pattern is a missing portion where the base is missing, and
the second conductive pattern is soluble in liquid, or is weakened when getting wet with liquid.
4 . The diaper sensor according to claim 3 , wherein
the second conductive pattern includes multiple second conductive patterns, and
the missing portion of the base includes multiple missing portions each corresponding to the multiple second conductive patterns.
5 . The diaper sensor according to claim 1 , wherein
the diaper sensor is formed in a sheet shape.
6 . A paper diaper comprising:
a paper diaper body;
a first diaper sensor provided at a portion of the paper diaper body corresponding to an external urethral opening; and
a second diaper sensor provided at a portion of the paper diaper body different from that for the first diaper sensor,
wherein each of the first diaper sensor and the second diaper sensor is the diaper sensor according to claim 1 .
7 . The paper diaper according to claim 6 , wherein
the second diaper sensor is arranged at a peripheral edge portion of the paper diaper body.
8 . A paper diaper comprising:
a paper diaper body; and
a diaper sensor provided at a portion of the paper diaper body different from a portion corresponding to an external urethral opening, the diaper sensor being the diaper sensor according to claim 1 .
9 . A paper diaper kit comprising:
a paper diaper; and
an incontinence pad,
the paper diaper comprising:
a paper diaper body; and
a diaper sensor provided at a portion of the paper diaper body different from a portion corresponding to an external urethral opening, the diaper sensor being the diaper sensor according to claim 1 ,
the incontinence pad has an incontinence pad body and a pad-side sensor device provided on the incontinence pad body, and
the pad-side sensor device is the diaper sensor.
