Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a urine collection device. Conventional urine collection tools have been glass containers or paper containers. It cannot be said that these shapes were designed for urine collection, and it was difficult to collect urine even in normal urinary conditions.

Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a hygienic and simple urine collection tool which has a urine collection part whose volume can be changed according to usage conditions and which has a backflow prevention part that can be opened and closed, attached to a funnel-shaped urine collection part that takes into consideration the human body structure. It is.

Examples will be described below with reference to the figures.

A urine storage part 2 of variable volume is attached to a urine collection part l formed in a funnel shape. A backflow prevention part 3, which can be opened and closed, is attached to the inside of either the urine collection part 1, the urine storage part 2, or their respective joint parts.

The urine collection part l has a funnel-shaped convergence structure that has an opening that can be brought into close contact with a woman's private parts and allows urine to be collected naturally. The urine storage section 2 is a container for storing urine, and is formed into a variable volume, for example, a bag shape, and its opening is connected to the outlet of the urine collection section 1. The backflow prevention part 3 is freely openable and closable in order to prevent accumulated urine from flowing back, and is attached to the above-mentioned location using a zipper made of vinyl, for example.

Due to the above-mentioned structure, when using this device, the urine collecting portion 1 is brought close to or in close contact with the private area to urinate. The discharged urine flows into the urine storage section 2 and is accumulated therein. The backflow prevention part 3 is opened when urinating and closed when urination is completed. The urine accumulated in the urine storage section 2 is safely secured without backflowing and used for tests, etc. The process of urine collection can be summarized as urine collection, urine storage, and prevention of reflux, but it is hygienic and convenient for both personal use and nursing use by others without leaking or splashing urine. It must be. The present invention has been achieved by actively considering the above requirements. Urine is a valuable medium for information expressed by the human body, and urine tests are becoming increasingly important. Furthermore, with the advancement of information technology through computers, the frequency of urine collection is also increasing. In addition, in an aging society, care for home care, bedridden elderly, etc. is occurring, and an easy method for such cases is desired. Taking these points into consideration, it is effective in terms of simplicity, disposableness, ease of specimen collection, hygiene, sense of care for nurses, etc. Applied examples will be described in detail below. The urine collecting part 1 may be made of any material that can maintain its shape, but it is preferable to use a material that is compatible with the human body, such as a material that is elastic or has soft contact, such as sponge, rubber, styrofoam, paper, etc. . In addition, a structure that forms a funnel shape only during use and becomes flat after defecating, for example, by using elastic material on two sides, the funnel is made into a flat shape, and when viewed from the opening, both vertically long end sides are forced inwardly. When you add , a funnel shape is formed. You can hold it in your hand and apply force in the direction mentioned above. It looks like a funnel is inside the ring formed by the thumb and index finger of the hand. A bent part may be provided to prevent the application of force, and the thumb and index finger may be easily caught on this part. Urine collection part 1
It is also possible to attach adhesive material to the inside of the container and flatten it after use to prevent backflow. You can also plug it. Alternatively, it may be flattened and sealed with adhesive tape from the outside. The funnel-shaped structure of the urine collection part I, which is asymmetrical when viewed from the side, with one side long and the other short, is a structure that corresponds to the local area and facilitates the removal of urine accumulated in the urine storage part 2. . A restraining material 7 may be used inside the urine collection part 1 to prevent urine from flying away. The suppressing material 7 may be a rolled material such as a cotton-like material, a foamed material such as a sponge, or a thread-like material. See Figures 7, 8, and 9.

Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 1O, a structure may be adopted in which a replacement part 8 is formed to be detachable so that only the contact part can be replaced.

The urine storage section 2 has a variable volume, which means, for example, that the bag can be folded freely, so that the volume created by the bag is variable. This is used to collect urine from bedridden patients, etc., and it is necessary to be able to collect urine in any condition.For this reason, it is desirable that the shape can be changed, and it is also convenient for packing when mailing home urine collection. It can also be folded and stored when not in use.

When the urine storage part 2 is shaped like a bag, the angle of the side in the direction of the long end of the urine collection part l is inclined upward compared to the angle of one side, which is just appropriate for collecting urine while supine. This is because the angle causes urine to flow downward. A removal section 5 may be provided in the urine storage section 2.

The take-out part 5 is normally closed and is opened only when taking out. It is formed into a cylindrical shape and the outlet is closed, but it may be opened by cutting it at the time of extraction. You can pass a vibrator through the cylindrical interior, and the length of the vibrator can be short, but if you make it long enough to reach the bottom, you can remove a small amount of urine. It may be taken out by directly flowing out from the take-out part 5, or it may be taken out by attaching a pump, dropper, etc. The bottom part 4 of the urine storage part 2 is foldable, and when it is expanded to form a bottom surface when collecting urine, it can stably stand on its own. The bottom portion 4 may be made of a heavy material to increase stability. See Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5, and Figure 6. A vinyl jack may be used as the backflow prevention part 3. When both sides of the bag of the urine storage section 2 are pulled, the zipper opens, and when the bag is closed, the zipper is pressed to close it. The backflow prevention part 3 may have a structure in which the inside of the bag is coated with an adhesive material, rubberized, or other material that becomes watertight upon contact, and the contact surface prevents water flow by applying pressure. As a method of applying pressure, a clip using a magnet or a spring may be used from the outside.

The material for the urine storage section 2 may be paper, laminated paper, vinyl, or other foldable material. Alternatively, it may have a bellows structure as shown in FIG. It is also possible to use a soft material, attach frame ribs 15 inside, and change the shape depending on the usage condition. In this case, the frame 15 may be made of variable shape such as wire or plastic. A handle 14 may also be provided. In this case, it is hygienic and sensually effective. Figure 15 Figure 16
See Figures 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23. Further, a saucer part 9 may be provided outside the urine collecting part 1 to prevent urine leaking outside. The saucer part 9 has a vertically long dish shape with a concave inner side, and has a hole in the center into which the urine collection part 1 is inserted.

There is a cut 11 for easy removal. The cuts 11 are overlapped, and the watertight portion 12 makes them watertight when overlapped.

An absorbent material 10 is attached to the saucer part 9 to absorb urine. Absorbent IO
may be disposable. An outer bag I6 may be attached to the saucer portion 9 to make it completely waterproof. A watertight part 12 made of rubber or polyethylene may be processed around the hole of the saucer part 9 to make it waterproof by close contact, and a grip part 13 may be provided on the outside. Alternatively, a solid agent may be placed inside the urine storage section 2 and solidified when urine flows into it. You can also add a deodorizer. When the urine collection part 1 and the urine storage part are made of paper material, it is effective for post-processing such as incineration. A scale may be provided on the side to facilitate inspection.

Further, a urine collection strip 17 for urine testing may be attached to the extraction section 5 so that the specimen sample can be taken out when removed.

There may be a plurality of take-out parts 5. A sensor may be attached to the take-out portion 5, and it may also be used as a sensor intake port. In this case, since the direction is fixed, it is also effective for automating collective testing.
