Description

L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif portable par un incontinent. The invention relates to a portable device with an incontinent.

Les dispositifs de ce type comprennent principa liement une poche en matière plastique souple, telle du polychlorure de vinyl, pourvue à sa base d'un moyen de vidange et dont la partie supérieure comprend soit une tubulure semi-rigide, soit une gaine également en.matière plastique souple captant l'urine pour la conduire dans la poche qui est elle-meme, de préférence, associée à un support, tel une bande d'un tissu éponge doublé d'un film de matière imperméable permettant sa fixation que ce soit à la manière d'une couche ou de toute autre manière. Devices of this type mainly comprise a pouch of flexible plastic material, such as polyvinyl chloride, provided at its base with a draining means and the upper part of which comprises either a semi-rigid tube or a sheath also made of it. flexible plastic material catching urine to lead it into the pocket which is itself preferably associated with a support, such as a strip of terry cloth lined with a film of impermeable material allowing it to be fixed either the way of a diaper or any other way.

L'invention concerne particulièrement les dispositifs à gaine. The invention relates particularly to sheath devices.

Dans les réalisations connues à ce jour, la poche est portée par un repli du support et se situe donc dans le prolongement et sensiblement dans le même plan que celui-ci. In the embodiments known to date, the pocket is carried by a fold of the support and is therefore located in the extension and substantially in the same plane as the latter.

De ce fait, ce type de poche est très difficile à mettre en place de manière à ce que son entrée reste ouverte. Therefore, this type of pocket is very difficult to set up so that its entry remains open.

Pour les dispositifs à usage féminin, le positionnement correct et l'ouverture de l'entrée de la gaine sont plus qu'aléatoires, d'où la préférence des dispositifs constitués par de simples couches absorbantes qui toutefois après avoir reçu l'urine restent au contact de la peau. For the devices for female use, the correct positioning and the opening of the entry of the sheath are more than random, from where the preference of the devices constituted by simple absorbent layers which however after having received the urine remain at the skin contact.

Pour les dispositifs à usage masculin, le maintien de la manchette n'est guère mieux assuré pour les enfants ou les personnes agées et pour tous est de plus dé sagréab le à mettre en place et à porters
De ces difficultés de mise en place et; de maintien en position ouverte, il résulte évidemment pour l'urine un accés difficile jusque dans la poche.For devices for male use, maintaining the cuff is hardly better guaranteed for children or the elderly and for all is more unpleasant to put on and wear
These difficulties in setting up and; keeping in the open position, it obviously results in urine difficult access to the pocket.

Un résultat que l'invention vise à obtenir est dispositi-f dont la mise en place est aisée. A result that the invention aims to obtain is dispositi-f whose implementation is easy.

A cet effet, elle a pour objet un dispositif du type cité plus haut notamment caractérisé en ce que la manchette de la poche est fixée au support dans une position où elle
est sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan du dit support et en ce qu'à cet effet, le support présente un orifice autour duquel est fixé le pourtour de la manchette.To this end, it relates to a device of the type mentioned above, in particular characterized in that the cuff of the pocket is fixed to the support in a position where it
is substantially perpendicular to the plane of said support and in that for this purpose the support has an orifice around which the periphery of the cuff is fixed.

L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci-après faite, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en regard du dessin ci-annexé qui représente schéma tiquement

En se reportant au dessin, on voit que le dispositif 1 comprend principalement une poche 2 en matière plastique souple telle le polychlorure de vinyle
Elle est pourvue à sa base 3 d'un moyen de vidange 4, 5, telle une canule 4 et son bouchon 5.Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that the device 1 mainly comprises a pocket 2 made of flexible plastic material such as polyvinyl chloride
It is provided at its base 3 with a draining means 4, 5, such as a cannula 4 and its plug 5.

A sa partie supérieure 6, elle est pourvue d'une manchette 16 également en matière plastique souple, telle le polychlorure de vinyl.  At its upper part 6, it is provided with a cuff 16 also made of flexible plastic, such as polyvinyl chloride.

Cette poche 2 est de préférence combinée à un support 8, tel une bande de tissu éponge 9 doublé d'un film 10 de matière imperméable, permettant sa fixation, par exemple à la manière d'une couche.  This pocket 2 is preferably combined with a support 8, such as a strip of terry cloth 9 lined with a film 10 of impermeable material, allowing its fixing, for example in the manner of a layer.

Selon une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, la manchette 16 de la poche 2 est fixée au support dans une position où elle est sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan du dit support 8 et, à cet effet, le support 8 présente un orifice 15 autour duquel est fixé le pourtour 13 de la manchette 16. According to an essential characteristic of the invention, the cuff 16 of the pocket 2 is fixed to the support in a position where it is substantially perpendicular to the plane of said support 8 and, for this purpose, the support 8 has an orifice 15 around which is fixed around edge 13 of cuff 16.

Entre le pourtour 13 de la manchette 16 et le support peut être prévue une collerette intermédiaire 7 située sensiblement dans le plan du dit support. Between the periphery 13 of the cuff 16 and the support can be provided an intermediate flange 7 located substantially in the plane of said support.

Selon une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, l'orifice 15, ainsi prévu dans la partie centrale 14 du support 8 ou de l'éventuelle collerette 7 et auquel est raccordé le pourtour 13 de la manchette 16 prévue à la partie supérieure 6 de la poche 2, est largement ouvert de manière que la manchette qui y est raccordée sbst mise en volume. According to an essential characteristic of the invention, the orifice 15, thus provided in the central part 14 of the support 8 or of the possible flange 7 and to which the periphery 13 of the cuff 16 provided at the upper part 6 of the pocket 2, is wide open so that the cuff connected to it is set in volume.

La# poche ainsi obtenue est donc remarquable en ce qu'elle présente en toutes circonstances sa manchette 16 mise en volume et surtout sensiblement perpendiculaire au support 8 ce qui interdit que, sous la tension de montage, se produise une fermeture de la manchette 16 par placage d'une paroi sur l'autre. The # pocket thus obtained is therefore remarkable in that it has in all circumstances its cuff 16 set in volume and above all substantially perpendicular to the support 8 which prevents that, under mounting tension, the cuff 16 closes by plating from one wall to the other.

Cette manchette a donc l'avantage de rester constamment d'accés très facile. This cuff therefore has the advantage of being constantly easy to access.

La fixation du pourtour 13 de la manchette 16 ainsi mise en volume à l'orifice 15 du support 8 ou de la collerette intermédiaire 7 et, s'il y a, la fixation de la collerette 7 sur le support s'opère de préférence par au moins une soudure 12, notamment à haute fréquence. The fixing of the periphery 13 of the cuff 16 thus set in volume to the orifice 15 of the support 8 or of the intermediate flange 7 and, if there is, the fixing of the flange 7 on the support preferably takes place by at least one weld 12, in particular at high frequency.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, dans la partie supérieure 7 et de préférence dans la manchette souple de la poche est fixée une valve 17, elle-même est composée d'une manchette souple qui, à sa partie supérieure 18, est mise en volume et a une section correspondant de préférence à celle de la manchette 16 de la poche 2 à laquelle manchette 16 de la poche 2, la manchette de ma valve est donc également fixée alors qu'elle est mise en volume. According to another characteristic of the invention, in the upper part 7 and preferably in the flexible cuff of the pocket is fixed a valve 17, itself is composed of a flexible cuff which, at its upper part 18, is put in volume and has a cross section preferably corresponding to that of the cuff 16 of the pocket 2 to which cuff 16 of the pocket 2, the cuff of my valve is therefore also fixed while it is set in volume.

Par contre, à sa base Ts, cette valve a une section aplatie. On the other hand, at its base Ts, this valve has a flattened section.

Grâce à cette forse particulière de la valms, la relative pression susceptible de régner dans la pacha 2 tend à appliquer l'une sur l'autre les deux parois 3z" 2S de sa partie aplatie 19.  Thanks to this particular shape of the valms, the relative pressure likely to reign in the pasha 2 tends to apply one on the other the two walls 3z "2S of its flattened part 19.

Au contraire, la moindre charge susc~eptible de parvenir dans la manchette 16 écarte auss1#t#t les dites parois qui permettent ainsi l'évacuation e cette charge vers la poche. On the contrary, the slightest load raised ~ eptible to reach the cuff 16 also spreads # t # t said walls which thus allow the evacuation of this load to the pocket.

Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'inven
tion (figures 5 et 6), pour parfaire l'isolation des autres parties du corps, notamment pour les dispositifs à usage féminin, l'orifice 15 de l'entrée de la dite manchette 16 est garni de deux lèvres (22, 23) disposées sensiblement dans le plan du support 8 ou de la collerette intermédiaire 7 et qui seulement à ce niveau de la manchette referment partiellement celle-ci pour n'en dégager qu une fente centrale 24 sous laquelle la manchette 16 de la poche reste largement ouverte. According to yet another characteristic of the invention
tion (Figures 5 and 6), to complete the insulation of other parts of the body, especially for devices for female use, the opening 15 of the inlet of said cuff 16 is lined with two lips (22, 23) arranged substantially in the plane of the support 8 or of the intermediate flange 7 and which only at this level of the cuff partially close the latter so as to release only a central slot 24 under which the cuff 16 of the pocket remains wide open.
