Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a urine storage case that constitutes a container for sequentially accumulating collected urine fluid.

The storage container targeted by this invention is the type that should be used to store, for example, all the urine collected in one day, and patients may wait for their own home to use this container. In such cases, this container will be used to collect urine and then brought back to the hospital.

Conventionally, a synthetic resin container with a regular shape has been used as this type of container.
It has drawbacks such as requiring a large space for storage and making cleaning work very difficult when reusing it. For this reason, in the past, inexpensive and disposable containers were used to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks.
In addition, flexible bags made of vinyl or the like, which are easy to handle, have come into use. However, due to its flexible nature, this conventional bag is not suitable for storing a large amount of urine fluid equivalent to one day's worth, and the storage capacity is originally limited to a small amount. In addition, it is expensive to obtain a configuration that provides the device with a portability function. It is also difficult to directly and accurately grasp the amount of urine fluid stored.

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional example described above, to be able to store a relatively large amount of urine fluid, to be portable, and to be able to be reused at low cost. Furthermore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a urine storage case in which the amount of urine stored can be accurately and directly determined.

In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention has the following configuration for the urine storage case.

That is, a urine storage device in which a flexible transparent or translucent waterproof thin material is formed into a bag shape, and a sealing function part is provided along the edge of the bag-shaped opening to open and close the opening. It has a storage part that stores the urine storage pack in a form that can seal the bottom or side periphery, a handle part that can be lowered by hand at the top, and a long vertically long part on the side wall surface. It is characterized by a structure consisting of a fixed case with a hole bored therein and a scale line attached near the edge of the elongated hole so as to exhibit rigidity as a whole.

With the above-mentioned structural characteristics, the urine storage pack may be formed into a bag-shaped single-layer material or a laminate material of a synthetic resin film such as polyethylene, which can effectively prevent leakage of urine fluid.
The sealing function of this urine storage pack may be an existing structure such as a fastener consisting of a convex part and a concave part or a structure in which an adhesive is applied along the edge of the opening. Furthermore, the rigidity of the fixed case can be obtained not only by the material itself that forms it, but also by its configuration. Therefore, it may be made of paper or the like assembled so as to exhibit rigidity. Further, the elongated hole is formed in a size and a position on the side wall surface of the fixed case such that the position of the expected urine fluid level in the urine storage pack can be confirmed.

The urine storage case of this invention exhibits the following effects. In other words, urine fluid can appropriately flow into the urine storage pack from the opening. At this time, the urine storage pack comes into close contact with the inner surface of the fixed case depending on the weight of the stored urine fluid. Further, the opening of the urine storage pack can be sealed by its sealing function to substantially prevent leakage of the stored urine fluid. In addition, the urine storage case in the urine storage state retains its shape due to the rigidity of the fixed case. In addition, the surface of the stored urine fluid can be confirmed through the elongated hole due to the transparency or translucency of the urine storage pack.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

As shown in FIG. 1, the urine storage case in this embodiment consists of a urine storage pack 1 and a fixed case 5 that houses the urine storage pack 1.

The urine storage pack 1 is made of a thin polyethylene material in the shape of a bag, and a sealing fastener 3 is provided on the edge of the opening 2 at the top. The sealing fastener 3 is composed of a convex portion and a concave portion formed on the edges of the opening 2 facing each other and capable of tightly fitting into each other.

The fixed case 5 is assembled into a box with a rectangular cross section by appropriately folding thin cardboard and pasting the main parts. As shown in FIG. 2, this fixed case 5 has an insertion opening 9 at the top.
It has an accommodating portion 8 of a size and shape such that the bottom or side periphery 4 of the urine pack 1 accommodated through the insertion opening 9 is brought into close contact with the accommodating portion 8. A measuring window 6 that is long in the vertical direction is bored on the side wall forming the housing portion 8, and a measuring scale line 7 is printed near the edge of the measuring window 6. Furthermore, on this fixed case 5,
Locking walls 10, 10 are provided extending from the front and rear edges of the insertion port 9, each having a symmetrical shape and having a longitudinally long insertion hole 11 bored in the center position. Lid parts 12, 12 are extended from the left edge and the right edge, respectively, in symmetrical shapes and formed by cutting out the insertion edge 13 into a projecting shape at the middle position. these lids 1
2 and 12 are also formed with folded line portions 14 and 14 extending from the cut end of the insertion edge 13 to the side edge portions, and a handle wall portion 15 that is connected by these folded line portions 14 and 14 is formed.
have each. In addition, a protrusion is formed on the handle wall 15 at the center of the end thereof, and locking edges 16, 16 are formed on both sides of the protrusion through tapered fitting recesses 8. are formed respectively.

The combination operation for the above-mentioned components such as the locking wall portion 10 is as follows. First, each lid part 1
2 and 12 are respectively bent along their continuous portions to close the insertion opening 9. At this time, the insertion edge 13,
13 are inserted into the holes created by the cutting, respectively, and are overlapped with each other, and at the same time, the respective handle walls 15, 15, as shown by 15', 15', and the locking edges 16... They are superimposed on each other as shown by 16'. Furthermore, each locking wall portion 10,1
0 at the continuous portion and insert the insertion hole 11.
Locking can be achieved by inserting overlapping locking walls 16, 16 into the fitting recesses 8, 8. Such an assembly configuration has the advantage that the rigidity of the fixed case 5 as a whole is increased when in use, and can be folded compactly and stored as appropriate when not in use.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects.

In other words, the new urine storage pack 1 has each lid part 12,1
It is stored through the insertion opening 9 of the fixed case 5 with the opening 2 open. Furthermore, if necessary, the sealing fastener 3 can be opened to allow urine fluid to flow in through the opening 2. When the urine fluid is accumulated in sequence in this way, the flexibility of the urine storage pack 1 and the weight of the accumulated urine fluid 20 cause the urine storage pack 1 portion to come into close contact with the corner 8' in the fixed case 5. It will extend to a certain extent.
As a result, the urine storage pack 1 is stored more stably in the fixed case 5, and the amount of urine stored is also greater than when the urine storage pack 1 is alone as shown by 1'. be able to.

In addition, since the accumulated urine fluid comes into close contact with the corners 8' in the fixed case 5 as described above, it can be confirmed through the measuring window 6 depending on the transparency or translucency of the urine storage pack 1. Level 20 of urine fluid is scale line 7
directly and accurately ascertained by

Furthermore, even when the urine storage case is transported integrally via the handle portion 15' formed by the above-described assembly operation, the urine storage pack 1 containing the required amount of urine fluid is placed inside the rigid fixed case. is stably maintained at

As for the urine collection case that has been carried by the patient and brought to the hospital and has fulfilled its intended purpose, it is sufficient to dispose of only the urine collection pack.
Therefore, the urine storage case can be reused at low cost, and operations such as cleaning are not required.

Further, by applying various designs such as patterns on the outer surface of the fixed case 5, the appearance of the fixed case 5 during transportation or other use can be improved.
