Abstract

Bei einem Vaginal-Tampon als mechanisches Hilfsmittel gegen Harn-Inkontinenz mit einem Grundkörper aus Schaumstoff ist zur Erzielung einer besseren Stützwirkung vorgesehen, daß der Grundkörper (2) im Querschnitt verbreitert, abgeflacht ausgebildet ist, wobei er vorzugsweise durch zwei starr miteinander verbundene Zylinderkörper (3, 4) gebildet wird.In the case of a vaginal tampon as a mechanical aid against urinary incontinence with a base made of foam, in order to achieve a better support effect, it is provided that the base (2) is widened, flattened in cross section, preferably by two rigidly connected cylinder bodies (3 , 4) is formed.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Vaginal- Tampons als mechanisches Hilfsmittel gegen Blasenschwäche oder Inkon­ tinenz.The invention relates to a method for producing a vaginal Tampons as a mechanical aid against bladder weakness or incons tinenz.

Es ist bekannt, daß Blasenschwäche oder Inkontinenz bei Frauen durch ei­ ne Deformation des Blasenhalses bedingt sein kann, welche durch Einfüh­ ren eines Tampons korrigierbar ist, so daß wieder eine normale Funktion des Schließmuskels gewährleistet ist.It is known that bladder weakness or incontinence in women is caused by egg ne deformation of the bladder neck can be caused by insertion ren of a tampon is correctable, so that again a normal function of the sphincter is guaranteed.

Hierdurch wird für die betroffenen Personen eine angenehmere Lösung dieses Problems erreicht als herkömmlicherweise, wo man sich darauf be­ schränkt hatte, unkontrollierten Harnausfluß durch Wäscheeinlagen aufzu­ fangen.This will be a more pleasant solution for the people concerned this problem is achieved as traditionally, wherever you look at it had restricted uncontrolled urine flow through laundry pads to catch.

Aus der nicht vorveröffentlichten europäischen Patentanmeldung 98810064 ist ein gattungsgemäßer Tampon bekannt, der aus zwei einzelnen Zylinder­ körpern besteht, die im Abstand voneinander angeordnet und mittels einer elastischen Folie flexibel verbunden sind. Ein derartiger Tampon ist her­ stellungstechnisch aufwendig und von der Benutzerin schwer handhabbar.From the unpublished European patent application 98810064 is a generic tampon is known which consists of two individual cylinders bodies, which are spaced from each other and by means of a elastic film are flexibly connected. Such a tampon was made positionally complex and difficult to handle by the user.

Hiervon ausgehend liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfah­ ren zur Herstellung eines Vaginal-Tampons so auszugestalten, daß ein Tampon geschaffen wird, der seine Korrekturfunktion optimal ausüben kann und über längere Zeiträume tragbar ist.Proceeding from this, the object of the invention is a method ren to manufacture a vaginal tampon so that a  Tampon is created that optimally perform its correction function can and is portable over long periods of time.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß in herkömmli­ cher Weise hergestellte Tampons mit zylinderförmigen Grundkörpern starr verbunden werden, wobei im Verwendungszustand die volle Elastizität er­ halten bleibt.This object is achieved in that in conven tampons manufactured with rigid cylindrical bodies be connected, the full elasticity in use lasts.

Insbesondere bei aus Polyvinylalkohol-Schaumstoff hergestellten Grund­ körpern kann vorteilhafterweise vorgesehen sein, daß die zylinderförmigen Grundkörper unter Einwirkung von Restfeuchtigkeit, Wärme und Druck miteinander verschweißt werden.Especially in the case of a base made of polyvinyl alcohol foam bodies can advantageously be provided that the cylindrical Base body under the influence of residual moisture, heat and pressure are welded together.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines bevorzugten Ausführungs­ beispiels in Verbindung mit der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Dabei zeigen:The invention is described below on the basis of a preferred embodiment example explained in connection with the drawing. Show:
