The washing water sending hose (105), human waste sucking hose (104), and sensor coupler (107) are bundled together into a single hose unit (123) to facilitate attachment and removal of the hoses and sensor coupler from the main body (101) of the diaper cup (1). A plurality of nozzles (108a, 108b) are disposed within the main body (101) of the diaper cup (1) for ejecting washing water to key spots of a human body's hip and buttocks.
