Description

Menstrual stopper {DEVICE FOR COLLECTING CATAMENIA}

The present invention relates to a physiological stopper, and more specifically, to insert a physiological stopper in the vagina to collect menstrual blood discharged during menstruation so as not to flow out of the vagina, and to remove the physiological blood that is decayed inside once the menstrual stopper It is about menstrual plugs.

Menstruation is a phenomenon in which the uterine mucosa of women of childbearing age is eliminated and discharged through the vagina with bleeding. The physiological apparatus is to absorb the blood discharged so as not to leak to the outside. In relation to the physiological apparatus, various materials and methods of use have been widely developed and used in various ways.

Among various physiological instruments, tampons have the advantage of being free to work during menstruation periods because they do not leak menstrual blood compared to pad-type sanitary napkins, but harmful substances are made of chemical components to infect blood in the vagina and uterus.

In addition, tampons cause a rejection when inserted, there is a problem in the insertion and removal due to heterogeneity, it is difficult to replace in the outdoors, there is a problem that there is a inconvenience in use because there is a feeling of pressure even after insertion.

Conventionally, for example, an expansion type sanitary napkin of Korean Patent No. 10-195340 has been developed as a technique for solving the problem of tampon. Such an expandable sanitary napkin is invented according to whether or not air is injected into a woman's vagina, and when the body is inserted, the inside of the vagina is completely sealed, thereby preventing menstrual blood from leaking out of the vagina.

Through this, the expandable sanitary napkin is intended to prevent odor caused by menstrual blood, and to minimize the contact between the inner wall of the vagina and the sanitary napkin body to solve the heterogeneity generated during insertion and expansion.

However, in the case of such an expandable sanitary napkin, there is a problem in that inconvenience and fatigue occur in performing the handling for inflation every time.

In addition, since the overall structure for the swell type structure is composed of a relatively large number of components, there is a problem that there is a possibility of unexpected failure and breakage in the course of use as well as after production. That is, the production cost is reduced to a simpler form, and there is a problem in that an efficient physiological apparatus that is easy to carry and use is also absent from the point of use of the physiological apparatus.

In addition, it discloses a physiological backflow prevention cap for the menstrual cup of Korea Patent No. 10-1961471. The menstrual cup backflow prevention cap is intended to prevent menstrual blood from flowing back into the body. To this end, an opening is formed in the menstrual cup, and a coupling part is provided on the top and includes a connection part including an inclined surface having a small cross section and a groove for inflow of the menstrual gyrus.

However, these menstrual cups and non-back cups for menstrual cups are only for menstrual blood backflow in general menstrual cups and are very easy to carry and use, especially for beginners who are new to or are not familiar with menstrual cups. There is a problem that is very burdensome and difficult to use.

In addition, Korean Patent No. 10-1848206 discloses a menstrual cup set. Such a menstrual cup set is intended to receive menstrual blood while inserted into the vagina for hygienic wearing and blood treatment. To this end, a menstrual cup set discloses a component including an insert, a body, a receptor, a rod, a case, and the like. However, such a menstrual cup set also has a problem that does not significantly deviate from the technical limitations of the counter flow cap for the menstrual cup of the above-mentioned 10-1961471.

In addition, although the purpose of the beginner's ease of use with the soft insertion and seating in the vagina, there is still a limit to the soft insertion into the vagina due to the structure of the menstrual cup itself, the compositional features for the beginner to use the menstrual cup easily There is still a problem that it is difficult to meet the needs of users because there is no improvement.

In addition, since the overall structure is still composed of a relatively large number of components, there is a problem that there is a possibility of unexpected failure and breakage in the course of use, as well as manufacturing after production. That is, the production cost is still reduced to a simpler form, and there is a problem in that an efficient physiological device that is easy to carry and use is also absent from a user using the physiological device.

Therefore, there is a disadvantage that it is not easy to provide a menstrual apparatus that can satisfy the needs of both the manufacture and use of the menstrual apparatus.
