Definitions

  • This invention relates to devices for use by individuals who are unable to control the flow of urine and, more particularly, to a device for detecting the presence of urine, and subsequently removing and storing the urine.
  • Both the catheter and sheath devices rely on gravity to remove the urine to a temporary storage container and failure to maintain the container at a lower elevation than the device prevents the proper removal of the urine.
  • Devices have been developed which provide a vacuum to remove the urine to a storage container, but require that the individual be sufficiently alert to properly position the urine collecting device when needed. These devices are of limited benefit to patients who experience incontinence problems while asleep or who have restricted physical movement and are unable to position the device.
  • Incontinence devices for females have been limited to internal catheter devices which suffer from the same shortcomings as the male catheter devices. There are no satisfactory external devices for use by females.
  • a collecting vessel shaped to conform to the genital region of an individual is coupled with a device comprising pump means and storage means.
  • Liquid sensing means may be provided in the collecting vessel for detecting the presence of urine to cause activation of the collecting means to remove urine from the collecting vessel.
  • the vessel may include a disposable liner to direct the urine away from the individual and to separate the individual from contact with the vessel.
  • Fig. 1 is a rear sectional view of the urine collecting and storage device of the present invention positioned in a charging stand.
  • Fig. 2 is side elevational view of the urine collecting and storage device taken along line 2-2 of Fig. 1 with the charging stand shown in broken lines and portions of the device broken away to show internal details.

Abstract

Un dispositif (10), qui sert à détecter la présence d'urine au niveau de la région génitale d'une personne, à évacuer et à stocker l'urine ainsi détectée, comprend un récipient extérieur (78) collecteur d'urine, qui est soutenu au niveau de la région génitale et qui est destiné à contenir l'urine. Des détecteurs de liquide (92) sont installés dans le récipient et servent à détecter la présence d'urine et à actionner automatiquement une pompe (12), afin d'aspirer l'urine par un conduit (96) jusqu'à une chambre de stockage temporaire (24). Un revêtement intérieur (89) imperméable au liquide est placé dans le récipient collecteur (78), de façon à assurer une meilleure hygiène et à diriger l'urine à distance éloignée de la personne.
