Definitions
- the present invention relates to a urine retaining device for male patients suffering from urine incontinence.
- Urine incontinence i.e. the inability to retain urine
- Patients suffering from urine incontinence may be provided with an absorbing diaper; however, such devices always cause consi ⁇ derable inconveniences from a practical as well as estetical viewpoint.
- Different types of urine-retaining devices for pati- ents suffering from urine incontinence have been suggested which however, all have substantial disadvantages. It has thus been suggested to construct a urine-retaining device for the present purpose from a water-imperneable plastic sheet material in the form of a kinf of bag having slanting sides, the inne surface of the same being covered with a commecially available swellable polymer materials having a great water-absorbibg capacity.
- a further disadvantage is that the outer surfaces of the device which consist of said water-impermeable plastic material, will adhere to the skin due to perspiration from the skin and also there skin irritations as mentioned above will occur.
- the present invention relates to an improved device for male patients suffering from urine incontinence, in which the above- mentioned disadvantages are removed.
- Fig. 1 is a side-view of a urine-retaining device according to the invention and Fig.2 shows the same device in a partly opened state, i.e. in the form the device has when in use.
- Fig. 1 is a side-view of the device which comprises two layers 1 and 2 in Fig.2. Three of its side edges 3, 4 and 5 are attached to eachother, whereas the fourth side 6 forms the opening of the device.
- the device When used the device is opened along the edge 6 so as to give it the form generally shown in Fig.2 and the male genitals are introduced into the opening with the penis directed towards the edge 5.
- the device In the in-use position the device will have such a position that the corner 8 is in the highest position and the corner 9 is in the lowest.
- insert has a form adapted thereto and is made from a pre ⁇ ferably web-formed polymer material with a very high water-ab- sorbing capacity under swelling to the formation of a gel-like mass.
- Urine When urine is released unintentionally, i.e. urine incontinence, Urine will run from the penis which is in a position near the edge 5 but below the corner 8 on to the inner side of the device which is water-repelling and thereon in the direction towards the corner 9 and between the edges 3 and 4 for absorp ⁇ tion by the inserted material 7 with a great water-absorbibg capacity.
- the walls 1 and 2 of the device consist of the above-mentioned layers layers of thin water-impenetrable material which in the device according to the invention on the outside thereof only is provided with an attached layer consisting of soft so-calle non-woven material which gives a comfortable feeling on the skin in contact therewith and prevents that the water-impene ⁇ trable material sticks to the skin and permits perspiration to evaporate.
- the walls 1 and 2 in the device according to the i'nvention thus consist of a laminate having one water-impenetrable component consisting of a suitable sheet material such as polyethylene with a melting point preferably in the range 110 - 120 °C and a thickness preferably in the range 0.1 - 0.025 mms., suitably about 0.035. It is obvious that several other suitable material are commercially available which can be used.
- a suitable sheet material such as polyethylene with a melting point preferably in the range 110 - 120 °C and a thickness preferably in the range 0.1 - 0.025 mms., suitably about 0.035. It is obvious that several other suitable material are commercially available which can be used.
- the second component in the laminate is a thin non-woven materi which usually is a polymer.
- One such material which is suitable for the purpose is a non-woven polypropylene material; other non-woven materials can also be used.
- a preferred non-woven sheet material consists of polypropylene fibres having a meltin point of about 170 C. The difference between the melting point of the two components in the laminate should be of such a mag- nitude that heat-lamination of the laminate components will be easy to perform.
- the insert 7 consists of a material having a great water- absor bing capacity which suitably is a sheet material.
- a material having a great water- absor bing capacity which suitably is a sheet material.
- Such material are commercially available and are generally polymers of diffe ⁇ rent types.
- An example of a such material is commercially avail n able under the tradename FAVOR SAB 901 and consists of a salt of a crosslinked polyacrylic acid.
- Other products with similar properties are available and can be used. From the sheet materi with a great water-absorbing capacity pieces are punched having a form adapted to suit the inne form of the device in the inten ded part thereof after folding along the symmetri line.

Abstract
Dispositif de protection contre l'incontinence pour patients mâles, formé d'un sac protecteur doté d'une ouverture pour l'introduction des organes génitaux mâles, ledit sac étant formé de deux parois conformes (1) et (2) qui ont en gros la forme d'un parallélogramme et qui sont fixées l'une à l'autre le long de trois de leurs bords (3, 4, 5) si bien que le troisième bord (6) forme une ouverture et constitue l'entrée du dispositif, lesdites parois (1) et (2) étant à base d'un matériau imperméable à l'eau, caractérisé par le fait que lesdites parois (1) et (2) consistent en un laminé de matériau imperméable à l'eau, par exemple un film de polyéthylène, de préférence d'une épaisseur de l'ordre de 0,1 à 0,025 mm, en particulier environ 0,035 mm, et d'un matériau synthétique non tissé pouvant être laminé à chaud avec le film imperméable à l'eau, ladite couche de matériau non tissée formant les surfaces extérieures du dispositif et le matériau de film imperméable à l'eau formant les surfaces intérieures du dispositif, et par le fait que le dispositif, seulement dans sa partie qui est délimitée par une ligne s'étendant essentiellement entre les deux coins opposés (10) et (11) et entre les bords fixés (3) et (4), est dotée d'une pièce insérée (7), fixée facultativement à la surface du dispositif, à base d'un matériau avec une grande capacité d'absorption d'eau par gonflement pour former une masse semblable à un gel.Incontinence protection device for male patients, formed of a protective bag provided with an opening for the introduction of the male genital organs, said bag being formed by two conforming walls (1) and (2) which have roughly the shape of a parallelogram and which are fixed to each other along three of their edges (3, 4, 5) so that the third edge (6) forms an opening and constitutes the entry of the device , said walls (1) and (2) being based on a waterproof material, characterized in that said walls (1) and (2) consist of a laminate of waterproof material, by example a polyethylene film, preferably of a thickness of the order of 0.1 to 0.025 mm, in particular approximately 0.035 mm, and of a nonwoven synthetic material which can be hot rolled with the film impermeable to water, said layer of nonwoven material forming the exterior surfaces of the device and the waterproof film material forming the surfaces inside the device, and by the fact that the device, only in its part which is delimited by a line extending essentially between the two opposite corners (10) and (11) and between the fixed edges (3) and (4) , is provided with an insert (7), optionally attached to the surface of the device, based on a material with a large capacity for absorbing water by swelling to form a gel-like mass.
