Abstract

The improvements comprise incorporating into a conventional diaper (1) a sensor (2) capable of detecting a predetermined level of liquid or solid deposition, the sensor being activated so that the corresponding signal is sent to a receiving/warning device (3) which translates the signal from the sensor (2) into an acoustic and/or light signal. The sensor (2) is supplied through an electric supplier (4) and the closing of the corresponding circuit is done through the bridge which is created between pairs of free poles, terminals or humidity sensing probes (5), due to solid or liquid deposition onto the diaper (1). With these improvements, it is possible to known instantaneously if a baby or an incontinent adult must be attended in order to change the diaper because of a deposition.
