PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an excrement collection tool, in which initial cost for mass-production is suppressed at a low level, a producing step is simplified so as to be carried out at a low production cost, with which both of collection by waiting acceptance of excrement prior to excretion and collection by collecting existing excrement after excretion may be carried out, which reduces uncomfortable feeling upon collection of excrement, and which has an excrement practicality.SOLUTION: There is provided an excrement collection tool, in which edges on an opening of two boxes having an opening on one side are jointed each other with a hinge in a manner they may be opened and closed, which may be used for any of collection by waiting acceptance of excrement prior to excretion and collection by collecting existing excrement after excretion, in which excrement is stored in an excrement storing part formed in a box shape by jointing two boxes in a manner one of them functions as a lid for the other one, and in which two boxes are fixed each other in a closed state. The excrement collection tool and an excrement collection method using it are characterized by low initial cost and low production cost for mass-production by virtue that it is made of at least one or more kinds of material selected from pulp mold, paper, corrugated cardboard, wood material and resin formed product.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】量産するための初期費用を低く抑え、製造工程を単純化し製造コストを低いものとし、排泄前の糞を待ち受けての採取、排泄後の既に排泄された糞の採取のいずれも可能で、糞採取にまつわる不快感を低減し実用性の高い糞採取器を提供する。【解決手段】一方が開口した2つの箱状体の開口端縁どうしがヒンジにより開閉自在に連結され、排泄前に糞を待ち受けて採取することと、排泄後の既に排泄された糞を採取することのいずれも可能で、2つの箱状体が閉蓋し合い箱状に形成される糞収容部に糞を収容し、2つの箱状体を閉じた状態のままで互いに固定する糞採取器であって、パルプモールド、紙、段ボール、木質材、樹脂成形体のうちから選ばれる少なくとも1種以上の材料から成形することにより量産するための初期費用と製造コストが低いことを特徴とする糞採取器およびこれを用いた糞採取方法である。【選択図】図5
