Abstract

The apparatus has a pocket (1) with a base plate (2) and a storage and evacuation pipe (4) made of a flexible material permitting the pipe to bend. The lower part of the pocket is closed by a clamp (5). The plate with a thin and flexible lip (3) directed inwards to the pocket is fixed to the abdomen of a patient by adjustable elastic straps (6). The pocket is fixed to the abdomen by tight knee-breeches.

Description

La présente invention est relative aux moyens utilisables pour améliorerThe present invention relates to the means usable to improve

le confort des personnes souffrant d' incontinence urinaire  the comfort of people suffering from urinary incontinence

0n connaît les poches étanches en film plastique ou en caoutchouc ou en toile imperméabilisée etc...qu' on fixe par tout moyen approprié ( collage bretelles etc... ) pour recueillir 1 ' urine que le patient ne peut pas contenir, comme celle décrite dans le brevet GB218471 du 10 juin 1923. Pour remédier aux fuites la poche est souvent remplie d ' un matériau poreux susceptible de retenir 1 ' urine ou encore d' un produit provocant sa gélification.Les vêtements du patient sont ainsi protégés, mais il n ' est pas à ' abri de I ' humidité , ce qui est désagréable et malsain.  We know the waterproof pockets plastic film or rubber or waterproof canvas etc ... that is fixed by any appropriate means (gluing braces etc ...) to collect the urine that the patient can not contain, such as described in patent GB218471 June 10, 1923. To remedy leaks the bag is often filled with a porous material may retain the urine or a product causing its gelation.The patient's clothing is thus protected, but it It is not immune to moisture, which is unpleasant and unhealthy.

La présente invention permet de remédier dans une large mesure à ces inconvénients car I ' urine est immédiatement conduite loin de la peau et, si le patient le désire, il peut I ' évacuer à tout instant en toute discrétion..  The present invention makes it possible to remedy these drawbacks to a large extent because the urine is immediately conducted away from the skin and, if the patient wishes, he can evacuate it at any time in any discretion.

La figure 1 représente un mode de réalisation possible de I ' invention: L ' appareil comporte une poche 1 munie d ' une embase 2 qui possède une lèvre 3 dirigée vers 1 ' intérieur de la poche pour recueillir éventuellement de I ' urine résiduelle. La poche 1 comporte un tuyau 4 d ' un diamètre suffisant ( de I ' ordre de 30 à 60 mm) destiné à recueillir et à évacuer 1 ' urine dès qu ' elle arrive. Ce tuyau d ' évacuation 4 réalisé dans une matière souple permettant au tuyau de se courber ( comme par exemple du caoutchouc d ' une qualité convenable) , se loge dans I ' une des jambes du pantalon ou dans une jupe longue, sans jamais dépasser du pantalon ou de la jupe.11 est obturé à son extrêmité inférieure par tout moyen approprié par exemple par une pince 5 ou une fermeture étanche à glissière ou un petit robinet.L' embase 2 est maintenue appliquée sur 1 ' abdomen du patient par des bretelles 6 de préférence élastiques et réglables, ou par tout autre moyen approprié ( colle, ruban adhésif etc...) permettant d' assurer une bonne étanchéité .Pour que la mise en place soit facile, les bretelles peuvent comporter des organes de fonction ( par exemple des crochets 7) . Le patient peut ainsi, à volonté , évacuer immédiatement I ' urine si les circonstances le lui permettent, ou la stocker sans risque en attendant de pouvoir le faire.  Figure 1 shows a possible embodiment of the invention: The apparatus comprises a pocket 1 provided with a base 2 which has a lip 3 directed towards the inside of the pocket to possibly collect residual urine. The bag 1 comprises a pipe 4 of sufficient diameter (of the order of 30 to 60 mm) for collecting and evacuating the urine as soon as it arrives. This discharge pipe 4 made of a flexible material allowing the pipe to bend (such as for example rubber of a suitable quality), is housed in one of the legs of the pants or in a long skirt, without ever exceeding the pants or skirt.11 is closed at its lower end by any suitable means for example by a clamp 5 or a tight zipper or a small tap.The base 2 is maintained applied to 1 abdomen of the patient by straps 6 preferably elastic and adjustable, or by any other appropriate means (glue, adhesive tape etc ...) to ensure a good seal. For the introduction is easy, the shoulder straps can include function organs (by example of hooks 7). The patient can thus, at will, immediately evacuate the urine if the circumstances allow it, or store it without risk while waiting to be able to do it.

La figure 2 est un autre mode de réalisation possible de I ' invention: Le tuyau 4 comporte un dispositif 8 destiné à empêcher le reflux d ' urine si le patient est allongé . Ce dispositif 8 peut être constitué par une portion 9, plus rigide mais néanmoins élastique, de tuyau préformé , qui fait une boucle autour de la jambe. Si le patient est allongé , I ' urine ne peut pas refluer vers I ' embase 2, car pour ce faire elle devrait gravir un pente ascendante dans le dispositif 8.  FIG. 2 is another possible embodiment of the invention: The pipe 4 comprises a device 8 for preventing the backflow of urine if the patient is lying down. This device 8 may be constituted by a portion 9, more rigid but nevertheless elastic, preformed pipe, which makes a loop around the leg. If the patient is lying down, the urine can not flow back to the base 2, because to do this it would have to climb an ascending slope in the device 8.

La figure 3 représente une poche 1 convenablement fixée à I ' abdomen, qui est de plus maintenue par une culotte étanche 10, ce qui procure une double sécurité . La culotte comporte une ouverture 11 pour laisser passer le tuyau 4.  Figure 3 shows a pocket 1 suitably attached to the abdomen, which is further held by a panty 10, which provides a double security. The panty has an opening 11 to let the hose 4 pass.

L ' étanchéité à cette traversée de paroi et au niveau des cuisses est assurée par des barrières antifuites élastiques 12 comme celles utilisées pour les couches. Cette culotte peut avantageusement contenir un gel 13 ou tout autre produit absorbani qui immobilisera I ' urine en cas de fuite au niveau de I ' embase 2.  The tightness at this crossing of the wall and at the thighs is provided by resilient barriers 12 as those used for the layers. This pant can advantageously contain a gel 13 or any other absorbent product which will immobilize the urine in case of leakage at the base 2.

La figure 4 représente une poche 1 et son tuyau 4 muni à son extrémité inférieure d ' une fermeture à distance. Un mode de réalisation de cette fermeture à distance comporte un obturateur 14 qui est commandé par un câble 15 (genre câble de frein de bicyclette) qui longe le tuyau 4 et aboutit au niveau de la ceinture du patient à un organe de commande muni d ' un ressort de rappel 16.  Figure 4 shows a pocket 1 and its pipe 4 provided at its lower end with a remote closure. One embodiment of this remote closure comprises a shutter 14 which is controlled by a cable 15 (like a bicycle brake cable) which runs along the pipe 4 and ends at the level of the belt of the patient to a control member provided with a return spring 16.

Un tel dispositif est particulièrement utile lorsque le patient peut difficilement se baisser pour aller manoeuvrer la fermeture inférieure du tuyau 4.  Such a device is particularly useful when the patient can hardly bend down to maneuver the lower closure of the pipe 4.

La figure 5 représente un dispositif similaire, le câble 15 étant remplacé par un petit tuyau 17 comportant à chacune de ses extrémités un soufflet 18 en caoutchouc ou en matière plastique souple. Le soufflet inférieur comporte un ressort de de rappel 19. On peut de la sorte réaliser une commande à distance hydraulique ou pneumatique.  Figure 5 shows a similar device, the cable 15 being replaced by a small pipe 17 having at each of its ends a bellows 18 of rubber or flexible plastic material. The lower bellows comprises a return spring 19. In this way, a hydraulic or pneumatic remote control can be realized.

On peut de la même manière imaginer une commande électrique comportant une pile d ' alimentation, une électro-vanne, un bouton poussoir de commande et un fil de liaison..  In the same way, it is possible to imagine an electric control comprising a supply battery, a solenoid valve, a control push button and a connecting wire.
