Referring to FIGS. 3A to 3D, the bag body 10 has an opening 18 for the excrement outflow. Moreover, a valve 20 is mounted on the opening 18 to control the excrement outflow in the bag body 10. As shown in FIG. 3C, the valve 20 mounted on the opening 18 is implemented as a zipper so that, after using the portable excrement bag of the invention, the excrement can be poured from the opening 18 via controlling the valve 20 in this invention. For the urine test, the portable excrement bag of the invention not only facilitates urine collection but also facilitates the pouring of urine into a test tube. While different configurations of the valve 20 are shown in FIGS. 3A to 3D, other configurations of the valve 20 for controlling the excrement outflow in bag body 10 are contemplated by the invention and are within the scope of the invention.
Fifth embodiment:
Referring to FIG. 4, a portable excrement bag in accordance with another embodiment of the invention is shown. An individual, especially a woman, may hold back urine if the available stool is unhygienic. Advantageously, the bag body 10 is modified as a square or polygonal shape with a protruded angle at the bottom corner and an opening 18 formed at the protruded end so that an individual may pass urine into the bag body 10 in urination while in standing position. Further, urine flows forwards into a stool from the opening 18 via theprotruded end. Such configuration enables an individual to keep the urine far away from the human body. An angle 11 is existed between the supporting members 14 and the rear portion of the bag opening 12. The angle 11 is on the side contacted with a human body and is an obtuse angle.
The supporting members 14 are located at two sides of the front portion of the bag opening 12 of the bag body 10 respectively. The angle 11 is fit with the outline of the vulva. It is particularly suitable for the women use. Moreover, a tab 21 projects upward out of the opening 18 of the bag body 10 so that an individual may hold the tab 21 to control the direction of the opening 18. As shown in FIG. 5A, a pipe 22 can be connected to the opening 18 at the bottom corner for correctly directing urine in the bag body 10 to stool. As shown in FIG. 5B, an individual can avoid sitting on a dirty stool seat while urinating. The outlet of the pipe 22 is further away from the individual so that urine may not drop onto the clothes.
The portable excrement bag of the invention has the following advantages: It can not only collect urine but also feces. Two fingers are allowed to hold the supporting members to position and to adjust the size of the bag opening of the portable excrement bag in order to completely cover the excretory orifices of human being. It is easy to seal, carry and dispose after use. It facilitates pouring urine into .a test tube.
Finally, it can directly pour the urine into a stool.
In view of above, the portable excrement bag of the invention employs two supporting members for fixing fingers so as to permit an individual to position and to adjust the size of the bag opening of the bag body. Further, the portable excrement bag can be skin-friendly and be well-fit for the urethra and/or the anus more precisely.
Hence, it can accurately collect excrement without leaking. An individual, especially a woman, may use the portable excrement bag to urinate in any situation such as in a standing position or in an automobile.
While the invention has been described in terms of embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that the invention can be practiced with modifications within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
