SPERM RECEPTACLE FOR ANALY SIS Filed Agg. 13, 1945 ,hvmvrok HAROLD w. WARNER mdnmv Patented Dec. 30, 1947 UNIT ED STAT E S ENT OFFICE 7 Claims. 1*
My invention relates to a spermreceptacle for analysis, moreparticularlyfor use in taking specimens of the male sperrnin order to determine the condition thereof, and the objects of my invention are:'
First, to provide a receptacle of thisclass having-a removable container which is readily replaceable for-collecting individual specimens;
Second, to-provide-a receptacle'of this class in-which the removable container is resiliently supported and positively sealed in connection with the patient for collecting the entire specimenproduced without-lossof any of the same whereby an accurate'analysis of theentire specimen maybe made;
Third. to provide a, sperm receptacle of-this class-in which the-removable container is provided witharr-absorbent material having sufficient com-p-ressivestrength' to prevent the collapse ofthecontainer during the process of producing the specimen;
Fourth, toprovide a spermreceptacle of this class having resilient attachment means which conform to varying dimensions of various patients;
Fifth, to providea sperm receptacle of this class having-openings in the outer side thereof wherebythe patient-isproperly exposed for carrying-on-the normal process of producing a specimen;
Sixth, to provide a' sperm receptacle of this class {which mayz-beusedi-forthe purpose of preventing disease; and
Seventh, to .provide-asperm receptacle of this class which is very simple and economical of construction, eiiicient in its action and which will not readily deteriorate orget out of order.
With-these andother-objectsas will appear hereinafter, my invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of arts and portions as will be hereinaften describedin detail and particularly set forth in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the characters of reference thereon forming a part of this application in which:
Figure 1 is a top or plan view of my sperm receptacle for analysis; Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view taken from the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
3 is a side elevational view of my sperm receptacle for analysis; Fig. 4 is an enlarged sectional View taken from the line Al@ of Fig. 3; F g. 5 is a longitudinal sectional View taken from the line 55 of Fig, 1 and Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the removable container of my sperm receptacle showing a portion broken away and-in section to amplify the illustration.
Similar characters f reference refer to similar parts and portions throughout the several views of the drawings:
The receptacle member I and the container 2 constitute the principal parts and portionsof my sperm receptacle for analysis.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 3 of the drawings, the receptacle member I is provided with openings la near the upper sidethereoi which extend downwardly around the side of a portion of the patient to which this receptacle member I is connected. Intermediate the openings la is a rib portion lb which interconnects the band portion lc with the container retaining-portion Id at the forward'end of thereceptacle member I, all as shown best in Figs. 1 and 3 of the drawings. It will be here noted'that this receptacle member i is made of resilient material, preferably thin rubber, or the like, having relatively high tensil strength.
As shown'in Fig. l of the drawings, the bottom portion Ie of the'receptaclemember Iis enclosed and arranged-to be positioned in close contact with a. portion of the patient; Adjacent the delivery opening through which the sperm is produced, the bottom portion Ie, as shown in Fig. 5 of the drawings, is enclosed from the-container retaining'por-tion Id'backwardly to the detail in Fig. 6 of thedrawings. This absorbent material in the removable container 2also provides structural means for maintaining the side walls of the removable container in distended position, all as shown best in Fig. 5 of the drawings,
It will be here noted that the outer side wall of the removable container 2 is preferably made of semi-rigid plastic material which also maintains the removable container 2 in proper form for receiving the specimen of sperm.
The operation of my sperm receptacle for analysis is substantially as follows: When the receptacle member I is secured in connection with the patient, the band portion to engages the portion of the patient to which the contours of said receptacle member I are designed to fit. The resilient character of this receptacle member maintains the container member 2 in close contact relation with the sperm delivery portion of the patient 50 that the sperm passes directly through the receiver openin 241 and into the absorbent material 217 in the removable container 2. The close contact of the bottom portion 16 of the receptacle member I with the patient prevents leakage of the sperm and retains the entire specimen in order that complete analysis may be made thereof. After the specimen has been delivered to the interior of the removable container 2, the receptacle member i is removed from the patient and the removable container is then removed from the receptacle member I. The container 2 may then be relieved of the: specimen to be analyzed.
It will be here noted that the resilient character of the receptacle member i provides adjustability of the band portion lo and the rib portion lb together with the bottom portion le, whereby the patients Varying in size will be comfortable during the process of delivering a sperm specimen.
Though I have shown and described a particular construction, combination and arrangement of parts and portions, I do not Wish to be limited to the particular construction, combination and arrangement, but desire to include in the scope of my invention the construction, combination and arrangement substantially as set forth in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In a sperm receptacle of the class described, the combination of a receptacle member having a band portion at one end and a cup-shaped portion at its opposite end, and a removable container having absorbent material therein positioned in said cup shaped portion having an opening therein facing said band portion.
2. In a sperm receptacle of the class described, the combination of a receptacle member having a band portion at one end and a cup-shaped portion at its opposite end, a removable container positioned in said cup-shaped portion having an opening therein facing said band portion, and openings in the normally upper and side portion of said receptacle member intermediate said band portion and said cup-shaped portion.
3. In a sperm receptacle of the class described, the combination of a receptacle member having a band portion at one end and a cup-shaped portion at its opposite end, a removable container positioned in said cup-shaped portion having an opening therein facing said band portion, and openings in the normally upper and side portion of said receptacle member intermediate said band portion and said cup-shaped'portion, said recep- 4 tacle member provided with an enclosed bottom portion integral with said cup-shaped portion and extending backwardly to said band portion.
4. In a sperm receptacle of the class described,
the combination of a receptacle member having a band portion at one end and a cup-shaped portion at its opposite end, a removable container positioned in said cup-shaped portion having an opening therein facing said band portion, and openings in the normally upper and side portion of said receptacle member intermediate said band portion and said cup-shaped portion, said receptacle member provided with an enclosed bottom portion integral with said cup-shaped portion and extending backwardly to said band portion, said band portion formed to fit the contours of the patient rearwardly of the sperm delivery opening.
5. In a sperm receptacle of the class described, the combination of a receptacle member having a cup-shaped portion at its forward end and a band portion at its rearward end and a removable container member of semi-rigid material in said cupshaped portion and having an opening therein at its rear portion facing said band portion of said receptacle member.
6. In a sperm receptacle of the class described, the combination of a receptacle member having a cup-shaped portion at its further end and a band portion at its rearward end and a removable container member of semi-rigid material in said cupshaped portion and having an opening therein at its rear portion facing said band portion of said receptacle member, and absorbent material in said removable container member.
'7. In a sperm receptacle of the class described, the combination of a receptacle member having a cup-shaped portion at its forward end and a band portion at its rearward end and a removable container member of semi-rigid material in said cupshaped portion and having an opening therein at its rear portion facing said band portion of said receptacle member, and absorbent material in said removable container member, said receptacle member having openings in its normally upper portion and side portion and a rib portion intermediate said openings interconnecting said cup-shaped portion and said band portion.
