JPH09276371A - Urine taking vessel - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily take urine, by forming one side of the periphery of an opening of a cylindrical urine taking vessel with a bottom higher than the other side. SOLUTION: This urine taking vessel made of paper is formed to have a bottom, a cylindrical shape with a diameter gradually expanded as it goes to upside, and an opening 2 at the upper part. The opening 2 is formed so as to be an opening plane cut slant at an angle θ. That is, the periphery part 3 of the opening 2 is formed in a shape with one side 4 higher than the other side 5. When this urine taking vessel formed into that constitution is used, passed urine collides to the higher side 4 to be taken in the vessel 1, even if the urine passing direction is slant as shown by the arrow F. Consequently, it is not required to tilt the vessel 1 as a conventional way to make taking urine easier. The opening area is made larger by forming the opening 2 slant to make taking urine easier. The angle θ is decided by a test etc., so that the height of the vessel 1 is not too high within a range for easily taking urine.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a urine collection container for collecting urine by receiving urine discharged from a human body for performing a urine test.

[0002]

A conventional urine collecting container of this type has a bottomed cylindrical shape having an opening at the top, and the opening surface of the opening is a horizontal surface, so that the direction in which urine discharged from the human body is discharged. If it is a vertical direction, there is no problem in receiving this urine, but if the discharge direction is oblique, it is difficult to collect urine because the container must be tilted. Particularly in women, it is more difficult to collect urine because the release direction is difficult to determine. Therefore, the present invention, even if the urine release direction is oblique,
An object is to provide a urine collection container that allows easy urine collection.

[0003]

In order to achieve the above object, the invention as set forth in claim 1 is a urine collecting container which has a bottomed cylindrical shape having an opening at the top and receives urine discharged from the human body. The peripheral portion of the opening is characterized in that it is a urine collection container formed so that one side is higher than the other side.

According to this structure, even if the direction of urine discharge is oblique, urine can be collected by applying the urine to one side of the container, which is formed at a high height in the peripheral edge of the opening, with the container standing upright. Unlike the prior art, it is not necessary to tilt the container and it is easy to collect urine.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[First Embodiment of the Invention] Hereinafter, a first embodiment of the present invention will be described.
Will be described.

1 and 2 show the first embodiment of the present invention.

First, the structure will be described. Reference numeral 1 in the drawing
Is a urine collection container made of paper, which collects urine by receiving urine discharged from the human body.

The urine collecting container 1 has a cylindrical shape with a bottom, the diameter of which gradually increases as it goes upward, and an opening 2 is formed in the upper portion. The opening 2 has an opening surface that is cut obliquely at an angle θ in FIG. 2, and the peripheral edge portion 3 of the opening 2 is
One side 4 is formed higher than the other side 5.

Next, the operation will be described.

When urine is collected using the urine collecting container 1 having such a structure, as shown by an arrow F in FIG. 2, even if the urine discharge direction is oblique, this urine hits one side 4 which is formed high. As a result, urine is collected in the container 1.

Since the urine can be collected by forming the wall on the one side 4 as described above, it is not necessary to tilt the urine collecting container 1 unlike the conventional case, and it is easy to collect urine. Further, by making the opening 2 oblique, the opening area becomes larger than in the conventional case where it is horizontal, and in this respect also, it becomes easier to collect urine.

The angle θ is determined by a test or the like so that the urine collection container 1 does not become too high and that the urine collection container 1 is easy to collect. This is because if the angle θ is increased, the wall against which urine comes into contact can be increased when urine is collected, but on the other hand, the height of the urine collection container 1 is increased.

[Second Embodiment of the Invention] FIG. 3 shows a second embodiment of the present invention.

In the first embodiment described above, the opening 2 has a shape cut obliquely, and one side 4 is gradually higher than the other side 5. However, in the second embodiment, , The one side 4 is stepwise sharply higher than the other side 5 with the half of the circle as the boundary.

Even in this case, the urine discharged obliquely on one side 4 can be received, and urine can be easily collected.

The present invention is not limited to each of the above-described embodiments, and the shape in which one side of the opening peripheral edge portion is higher than the other side, and the urine discharged obliquely can be received by the one side. Any shape may be used, and the opening may be, for example, as shown in FIG.
Needless to say, it may not be linear as shown by the solid line, but may be curved as shown by the chain double-dashed line.

[0017]

According to the invention described in claim 1, one side of the opening peripheral edge is formed higher than the other side, and this one side serves as a wall for receiving urine discharged obliquely. Therefore, it is possible to collect urine more easily without the need to tilt the container as in the conventional case.
