Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention specifically relates to a urine collection pad-type aerial urine collection device for women. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, male pilots in China have in-flight sanitation devices to address urination issues, but female pilots are not yet equipped with such devices. During long-duration flights, female pilots typically use adult diapers, but prolonged wear of used diapers can cause dampness in the perineal area, leading to discomfort and even eczema or urinary tract infections. In the civilian sector, devices for collecting female urine can be broadly categorized into wearable and handheld types. These are primarily intended for bedridden or immobile patients, and therefore tend to be relatively simple in design, less comfortable, and unsuitable for the in-flight environment. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a urine collection pad-type in-flight urine collection device for women, which is convenient, safe, hygienic, comfortable and breathable, and solves the problem of female urine collection. It is especially suitable for female pilots and can effectively meet the needs of female pilots who cannot urinate comfortably and conveniently during long-duration flight missions. It can effectively help female pilots solve the problem of urination during long-duration flights and is beneficial to the physical and mental health of female pilots during flight.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this invention is:

[0005] A urine collection pad type female air urine collection device includes underwear, urine collection pad assembly, urine tube, suction device and urine bag. The urine collection pad assembly is located inside the bottom of the underwear. One end of the urine tube passes through the underwear and is connected to the urine collection pad assembly, and the other end is connected to the suction device. The suction device is connected to the urine bag.

[0006] Furthermore, the urine collection pad assembly includes a urine collection pad and an inner urine tube; a hollow drainage layer is provided in the middle of the urine collection pad along the longitudinal direction, and support layers are provided on both sides of the hollow drainage layer, with the support layers on both sides being higher than the hollow drainage layer in the middle; a urine leakage hole is provided on the hollow drainage layer, and the inner urine tube is located in the hollow space of the hollow drainage layer, with the urine leakage hole communicating with the hollow space.

[0007] Furthermore, the support layer includes an inner cavity layer and an outer skin layer arranged sequentially, and the inner cavity layer and the outer skin layer are filled with gas or soft material before being pressed together.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner cavity layer is made of silicone, and the outer skin-adhesive layer is made of pure cotton or soft non-woven fabric.

[0009] Furthermore, an ultra-thin absorbent core is placed over the support layer.

[0010] Furthermore, the urine collection pad has an adhesive backing, which allows it to be attached to underwear.

[0011] Furthermore, there are multiple leakage holes, which are distributed sequentially and at intervals along the longitudinal direction of the hollow drainage layer.

[0012] Furthermore, the internal urinary catheter is connected to the urinary catheter via a quick-connect adapter.

[0013] Furthermore, the suction device includes a self-priming pump, a battery, and a housing assembly, with the self-priming pump and battery housed within the housing assembly, and the self-priming pump connected to the battery.

[0014] Furthermore, the front panel of the underwear has a urinary catheter opening.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0016] This invention collects urine using a urine collection pad assembly, and then uses a suction device to draw the collected urine into a urine bag. The two side support layers of the urine collection pad assembly are slightly higher than the central hollow drainage layer, forming a "U" shape that prevents urine leakage from the sides. It is convenient, safe, hygienic, comfortable, and breathable, solving the problem of urine collection for women, especially female pilots. It effectively meets the needs of female pilots who cannot urinate comfortably and conveniently during long-duration flights. Through a reasonable structure and size design, it ensures comfort during use and effectively helps female pilots solve urination problems during long-duration flights, which is beneficial to their physical and mental health during flight.
