Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pair of pants with two leg openings separated by a pant fly, the pants being intended to reduce or eliminate urinary incontinence while the pants are being worn by a user.
  • pelvic floor dysfunction In many people, both men and women, the muscles and ligaments in the area of the urinary tract and especially in the area of the pelvic floor become loose due to age or illness, due to a weakness in the connective tissue or as a result of operations, which is disturbing due to a sudden urge to urinate or also due to more or less pronounced incontinence (so-called pelvic floor dysfunction).
  • WO 2014/044831 A1 is a pant designed as a support pant of the type mentioned previously, with which the pelvic floor muscles of a male or female user are to be supported in such a way that, for example, incontinence is reduced or even minimized leaves.
  • a lifting mechanism is provided in the previously known pants, with which the crotch section is intended to be supported and lifted.
  • This lifting mechanism includes at least one lifting strap that extends between the waistband and the crotch section.
  • first lifting strap extends diagonally outwards between the crotch section and the elastic waistband
  • second lifting strap extends diagonally outwards between the crotch section and the elastic waistband.
  • the first and second lifting straps define a generally V-shaped lifting system at the front of the panty to, in combination with the waistband, support the user's pelvic floor muscles with an appropriate pushing force upwards towards the waist.
  • the previously known support pants are intended to be worn directly on the skin.
  • an openable pouch is provided in the perineal area of the support trousers, in which the replaceable sanitary napkin or a cloth can be inserted.
  • the lifting mechanism integrated into the previously known support trousers therefore only provides one or more compression panels which are integrated into the trousers and bring about a supporting force upwards in the direction of the waistband.
  • the previously known support pants are not designed as a fabric or knitted fabric made using elastic fibers, but rather the compression tracks are provided and effective in defined partial areas of the pants.
  • the previously known trousers have an insert made of silicone on the inside of the trousers, which is adapted to the contour of the saddle and has spring-elastic partial areas made of silicone in the area of the pelvic bones bearing on the saddle, which reduce shocks and, if necessary, can transfer them to the pelvic bones in a targeted manner.
  • the insert in the previously known trousers is in the form of a Adjusted bicycle saddle - a pressurization of the user in the wider environment of the pelvic bones and especially in the soft perineal area is not provided with the previously known trousers.
  • the previously known insert has various elastic layers between which channels are provided.
  • the known pad has protuberances consisting of vertical, conical or cylindrical volcanic microcapsules of elastomeric material. Influencing the incontinence of the user is neither intended nor possible with the previously known insert.
  • the solution to this problem according to the invention consists in trousers of the type mentioned in particular in that the trousers have a pressure body in the area of the trouser fly for pressurizing the user in the perineal area, which is cam-shaped or approximately hemispherical in design at least in a partial area and consists of a hard, hard-elastic and/or unyielding material is made, the pants are designed as a woven or knitted fabric made using elastic fibers, and that the pressure body is immovably connected to the material of the pants.
  • the trousers according to the invention have two leg openings which are separated from one another by a trouser strap, the trouser strap having a pressure body designed to apply pressure to the patient or user in the perineal area.
  • This pressure body which is provided on the fly of the pants according to the invention, presses on the user's body in the perineal area.
  • the compressive body is cam-shaped or approximately hemispherical in shape, at least in a partial area.
  • the pressure body is made of a hard, hard-elastic and/or unyielding material so that the pressure force generated is transmitted to the perineal area of the user with as little reduction as possible.
  • the pressure exerted on the perineal area of the user with the help of the pressure body lifts the muscles or ligaments that are loosened in this area and tightens the urinary tract in this area.
  • This continuous pressure counteracts a loosening of the muscles and ligaments in the perineal area, which at least reduces a sudden urge to urinate and a more or less severe urinary incontinence of the patient can be reduced.
  • the sphincter muscle can also work adequately again thanks to its naturally correct position. Since the pants are constructed as a woven or knitted fabric made using elastic fibers, the pants are comparatively breathable and comfortable to wear.
  • the fabric or knitted fabric is elastic at the same time, it is able to fit closely to the patient's body and build up a hold here that allows pressure to be applied to the patient's body with the aid of the pressure body.
  • the pressure body is immovably connected to the material of the trousers.
  • the pants according to the invention can be used in particular in those cases where regular pelvic floor training does not take place or is not sufficient. By using the trousers according to the invention, complex operations can also be avoided in suitable cases.
  • suspenders are held on the trousers.
  • a preferred embodiment according to the invention provides that the braces have two carrying straps on the front and/or back.
  • Such a suspender which has two straps on the front or back, can. Distribute the tensile forces of the carrying straps acting on the pants approximately evenly.
  • pants are designed as underpants.
  • pants designed as underpants can act directly on the perineal area of the user with their pressure body.
  • a preferred embodiment according to the invention which allows the user's body to be directly subjected to pressure by means of the pressure body, provides that the pressure body is provided on the inside of the trousers.
  • a comparatively high compressive force can be applied to the perineal area of the user if the pressure body has a bar-shaped partial area that is raised in the direction of the back of a pair of trousers.
  • Such a pressure body which also has a portion raised in the direction of a back of pants, also acts on the perineal area with a force component directed upwards in the direction of the user's body.
  • FIG. 1 to 4 is a pair of pants in two versions 1, 10 shown.
  • the trousers 1, 10 have two leg openings 2, 3, which are separated from one another by a trouser bar 4 of the trousers 1, 10.
  • the trousers 1, 10, which are designed as long trousers with trouser legs or—as here—can be designed as so-called short trousers without such trouser legs, are designed here as underpants. While the in the figures 1 and 2 pants shown is a men's underpants, in contrast, is in the Figures 3 and 4 pants 10 shown configured as women's underpants.
  • Pants 1, 10 shown are intended to reduce or eliminate urinary incontinence while the pants are being worn by a user.
  • the trousers 1, 10 have, in the area of the trouser fly 4, a pressure body 5 or 6 intended to apply pressure to the user in the perineal area.
  • This pressure body 5, 6 provided on the trouser bar 4 presses on the user's body in the perineal area. This pressure lifts the user's loosened muscles or ligaments in that area and tightens the urinary tract in that area.
  • This continuous pressure counteracts a loosening of the muscles and ligaments in the perineal area of the user, as a result of which a sudden urge to urinate can at least be reduced and a more or less severe incontinence on the part of the user can be reduced.
  • the pants shown here are particularly useful in cases where regular pelvic floor training does not take place or is insufficient. By using the pants 1, 10, complex operations can also be avoided in suitable cases.
  • the trousers 1, 10 are made of a rubber-elastic or elastic material.
  • An embodiment is preferred in which the trousers 1, 10 are designed as a knitted fabric made using elastic fibers. Such a knitted fabric is comparatively breathable and easy to wear. Since the fabric is elastic, it is able to fit closely to the patient's body and build up a hold here that allows the user's body to be pressurized by means of the pressure body 5, 6.
  • an elastic and possibly also length-adjustable belt is drawn into the trousers 1, 10.
  • a pair of suspenders which is not shown here, can also be held on the pants 1, 10. So that this suspender can distribute the forces acting on the trousers 1, 10 evenly, it is advantageous if the suspender has two carrying straps on the front and/or back.
  • these pressure bodies 5, 6 are designed in the shape of cams or hemispherical at least in a partial area 9.
  • the exemplary embodiment 10 shown shows that the pressure body 6 can also have a bar-shaped partial region 7 that is raised in the direction of the back of a pair of trousers. Since the pressure body 6 also acts on the perineal area of the user through this raised partial area 7 with a force component directed towards the user's body, particularly high pressure forces can be applied to the perineal area of the user.
  • the pressure body 5, 6 is made of a hard or unyielding material so that the compressive force generated is transmitted to the patient's perineal area with as little reduction as possible. In order to ensure precise positioning of the pressure body 5, 6 in the desired area of the dam, this pressure body 5, 6 is immovably connected to the material of the trousers 1, 10.
  • the in the Figures 3 and 4 The women's underpants shown are 8 in the part facing the pubic area designed in the form of a fork, with these fork-shaped partial areas being able to position themselves particularly well on both sides in the user's groins, where they are no longer a problem.
