Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a urine collection device. Background Technology
[0002] Conjugated estrogen is a natural mixed estrogen extracted from the urine of pregnant mare. It is mainly composed of sodium estrone and sodium equine estrone. It has the effects of preventing and treating insufficient estrogen secretion caused by physiological and pathological reasons, activating bodily functions, and delaying aging. Clinically, it is used for ovarian insufficiency, uterine hypoplasia, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, menopausal syndrome, senile vaginitis, prostate cancer, as well as for nosebleeds, obstetric bleeding, and bleeding during surgery.
[0003] Existing pregnant mare urine collection devices typically suspend the storage device at the front of the horse's belly, which has the following drawbacks: First, the large instantaneous flow of urine during urination makes it easy for urine to overflow from the storage device; second, the design of the urine collector, storage device, and tubing is complex and heavy, easily causing stress on the horse; third, draining the collected urine is difficult. In small-scale breeding (8-20 horses in a family ranch), the wide partitions in the stables (1.3-1.5 meters apart) allow herders to stand to the side of the horse and empty the urine from the storage device; however, with the industrialization and intensive development of pregnant mare urine production, the partitions between horses in stables are now only 85 centimeters wide, making it impossible for people to enter the partitions to collect urine; fourth, collecting urine while standing very close to the side or back of the horse poses a safety hazard and makes one vulnerable to attack. Therefore, there is a need to research urine collection devices more suitable for intensive horse farms. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a urine collection device, including a urine collector, a guide tube, a urine bag, and a fixing device;
[0005] The urine collector is gourd-shaped, with an elliptical curved groove on the upper inner side. Side wings are fixed on the front and rear sides of the urine collector, and at least one tie hole is provided on the side wings. An inlet end is fixed on the upper part of the urine collector, and an outlet end is fixed on the lower part of the urine collector.
[0006] The drainage tube is inserted into the urinary outlet end, and the diameter of the drainage tube is such that it is fixed in the urinary outlet end and does not move arbitrarily.
[0007] The urine outlet is inserted into the urine bag, and the urine bag and the urine collection device are fixed by a fixing device; the minimum diameter of the urine bag is such that the urine bag does not move arbitrarily on the surface of the guide tube.
[0008] The end of the urine bag furthest from the urine collector is detachably fixed to a fixture behind the horse. Preferably, the end of the urine bag furthest from the urine collector is detachably fixed to a fixture (such as a partition) behind the horse, or directly inserted into a dedicated urine collection pipe pre-embedded behind the horse, thus facilitating the removal of urine by staff.
[0009] Preferably, the urine bag has a connecting end for connecting the urine collector and a urination end for securing it. The urine bag is long enough to form an arc between the left and right ends, with the lowest point of the arc being significantly lower than the left end of the urine bag. The securing position of the urination end of the urine bag is determined by its position behind the horse, but the securing height needs to be adjusted so that urine collects at the lowest point in the middle of the urine bag, preventing urine from flowing back to the connecting end.
[0010] Preferably, the urine bag has a connecting end for connecting to the urine collector and a urination end for securing it. The end of the urine bag furthest from the urine collector (the urination end) is directly inserted into a pre-embedded urine collection pipe behind the horse. The height of this urination end is much lower than the height of the connecting end, thus facilitating the rapid flow of urine under its own weight after entering the connecting end of the urine bag, flowing into the urination end, and then into the urine collection pipe.
[0011] Preferably, the upper part of the urine collection device has several vent holes around the urine inlet.
[0012] Preferably, the urine collector is made of any one of rubber, silicone, or PE plastic.
[0013] Preferably, the guide tube is made of either rubber or silicone.
[0014] Preferably, the urine bag is cylindrical and made of either rubber or silicone. More preferably, the urine bag has an inner diameter of 3 inches and a length of 1-2 meters.
[0015] Preferably, the fixing device is any one of a rope, a clamp, or a screw.
[0016] Preferably, the urine collection device further includes a connector for fixing the urine collector to the corresponding part of the horse.
[0017] The connector includes a harness, at least two upper tethers, and at least one lower tether. The harness includes a loop, four horizontal straps, and three vertical straps. The four horizontal straps and three vertical straps are fixedly connected together in a grid pattern. The left end of the horizontal strap is fixedly connected to the upper part of the loop, and the right end of the horizontal strap is fixedly connected to the left end of the corresponding upper tether by a metal buckle. The harness is then fixedly installed on the horse's back. The right end of the upper tether is fixedly connected to the tether hole on the side of the urine collector. The left end of the lower tether is fixedly connected to the loop, and the right end of the lower tether is fixedly connected to the fixing device. The urine collector is fixed to the corresponding part of the horse by the upper and lower tethers. The metal buckle facilitates the installation and removal of the harness from the upper and lower tethers.
[0018] Advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies:
[0019] 1. This utility model uses a urine bag to replace the traditional urine storage device. The urine collector is directly connected to the urine bag, and the guide tube is set inside the urine collector. The urine can be guided into the urine bag with a larger space in a timely manner through the guide tube, avoiding the overflow of horse urine. At the same time, it also solves the problem of storing horse urine. It is easy to disassemble and clean, and is not easy to cause bacterial contamination.
[0020] 2. This utility model directs the outlet of the urine bag to the back of the horse, such as by tying it to the fence behind the horse or by directly inserting it into a special urine collection pipe pre-buried behind the horse. Workers can stand behind the horse to collect the urine without having to stand next to the horse to collect it, thus realizing the efficient collection of horse urine in an intensive horse farm, while ensuring the safety of personnel.
[0021] 3. This utility model simplifies the connection process and reduces the load on the horse by setting a tether on the fixing device and connecting it to the connecting parts on the horse's back.
[0022] 4. The urine collection device of this utility model is suitable for the needs of intensive and large-scale production. Attached Figure Description

Figure 1 The layout is described using a diagrammatic method, such as the positional relationships of front, back, top, bottom, left, and right, which are based on the instructions attached. Figure 1 The orientation of the layout is determined by the direction of the map.
[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings:
[0033] Example 1
[0034] As attached Figure 1-6 As shown, the urine collection device includes a urine collector 1, a drainage tube 2, a urine bag 3, and a fixing device 4. The urine collector 1 is gourd-shaped, with an elliptical curved groove 6 on the upper inner side. Side wings 7 are fixed to the front and rear sides of the urine collector 1, and at least one ties hole 8 is provided on each side wing 7. An inlet end 9 is fixed to the upper part of the urine collector 1, and an outlet end 10 is fixed to the lower part of the urine collector 1. The drainage tube 2 is inserted into the outlet end 10, and the diameter of the drainage tube 2 is such that it is fixed in the outlet end 10 and cannot move arbitrarily. The outlet end 10 is inserted into the urine bag 3, and the urine bag 3 and the outlet end 10 of the urine collector 1 are fixed by the fixing device 4.
[0035] The fixing device 4 is a clamp that presses the left end of the guide tube 2 tightly against the urine outlet end 10 of the urine collector 1 to prevent urine from flowing out. The fixing device 4 facilitates the disassembly and cleaning of the urine collector 1 and the urine bag 3.
[0036] The minimum diameter of the urine bag 3 is such that it does not move freely on the surface of the guide tube 2. In this way, the elliptical groove on the inner side of the urine collector 1 perfectly matches the mare's vulva, minimizing urine waste and separating feces and urine produced by the mare. Through the coordinated use of the urine collector 1, urine bag 3, and guide tube 2, the purpose of collecting mare urine is achieved. The urine collector 1 is not easily displaced or deformed, and the urine collector 1, urine bag 3, and guide tube 2 are easy to disassemble and clean, simplifying operation and improving collection efficiency.
[0037] As needed, several ventilation holes 5 can be provided around the urine inlet 9 at the top of the urine collector 1, so that the horse urine collected by the urine collector 1 can flow smoothly through the guide tube 2 into the urine bag 3, and keep the mare's vulva ventilated and dry, avoiding discomfort and vulvar infection caused by the urine collector 1 being too tightly sealed to the mare's vulva.
[0038] Depending on the requirements, urine collection device 1 is made of silicone or latex material, is lightweight, and has suitable rigidity. It conforms to the groin area on both sides of the horse's vulva, causing no discomfort or injury, and will not shift due to the horse's movement. The drainage tube 2 is made of soft silicone material, with sufficient flexibility to avoid causing discomfort to the mare. The urine bag 3 is made of rubber, cylindrical, with an inner diameter of 3 inches and a length of 1-2 meters. It can store up to the maximum amount of urine a pregnant mare can produce in a day. It is removable, washable, and reusable, preventing direct contact between the urine bag and the horse and thus avoiding discomfort.
[0039] As attached Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a connector is fixedly connected to the tethering hole 8 on the side wing 7 of the urine collector 1. The connector includes a harness, four upper tethers 12, and one lower tether 13. The harness includes a loop strap 14, four horizontal straps 15, and three vertical straps 16. The four horizontal straps 15 and three vertical straps 16 are fixedly connected together in a grid pattern. The left end of the horizontal strap 15 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the loop strap 14, and the right end of the horizontal strap 15 is fixedly connected to the left end of the corresponding upper tether 12 by a metal buckle 17, thus fixing the harness to the horse's back. The right end of the upper tether 12 is fixedly connected to the tethering hole 8. The left end of the lower tether 13 is fixedly connected to the loop strap 14, and the right end of the lower tether 13 is fixedly connected to the fixing device 4. The urine collector 1 is fixed to the corresponding part of the horse by the upper tethers 12 and the lower tether 13. The metal buckle 17 facilitates the installation and removal of the harness from the upper tethers 12 and the lower tether 13.
[0040] The preferred embodiment of this utility model is used as follows: When in use, the loop 14 of the harness is put around the horse's neck, the four horizontal straps 15 and three vertical straps 16 of the harness are placed on the horse's back, and then the left end of the upper harness 12 and the corresponding horizontal strap 15 are fixedly connected together by the iron buckle 17. The right end of the upper harness 12 is fixedly connected to the harness hole 8 on the side wing 7 of the urine collector 1, the left end of the lower harness 13 is fixedly connected to the loop 14, and the right end of the lower harness 13 is fixedly connected to the fixing device 4, so that the elliptical curved groove 6 on the inner side of the urine collector 1 is perfectly combined with the mare's vulva. The iron buckle 17 facilitates the installation and removal of the harness from the upper harness 12 and the lower harness 13.
[0041] The urine bag 3 has a connecting end for connecting to the urine receiver 1 (e.g. Figure 1 (as shown on the left end) and the urinary end used to fix it (such as ... Figure 1 (As shown on the right end), the length of the urine bag 3 is long enough to form an arc between the left and right ends, and the lowest point of the arc is much lower than the left end of the urine bag 3. The urination end 18 of the urine bag 3 is tied to the partition 11 behind the horse, and the fixed height is adjusted so that the urine collects at the lowest point in the middle of the urine bag 3, preventing the urine from flowing back to the connecting end.
[0042] The mare's urine flows smoothly through the urine collector 1, the drainage tube 2, and into the urine bag 3, preventing blockages. To collect the urine, simply pull open the outlet 18 to easily empty it.
[0043] The above technical features constitute the preferred embodiment of this utility model, which has strong adaptability and the best implementation effect. Unnecessary technical features can be added or removed according to actual needs to meet the needs of different situations.
[0044] Example 2
[0045] like Figure 7 As shown, the usage process of another preferred embodiment of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the loop 14 of the harness is put around the horse's neck, the four horizontal straps 15 and three vertical straps 16 of the harness 14 are placed on the horse's back, and then the left end of the upper harness 12 and the corresponding horizontal strap 15 are fixedly connected together by the iron buckle 17. The right end of the upper harness 12 is fixedly connected to the harness hole 8 on the side wing 7 of the urine collector 1, the left end of the lower harness 13 is fixedly connected to the loop 14, and the right end of the lower harness 13 is fixedly connected to the fixing device 4, so that the elliptical curved groove 6 on the inner side of the urine collector 1 is perfectly combined with the mare's vulva. The iron buckle 17 facilitates the installation and removal of the harness from the upper harness 12 and the lower harness 13.
[0046] The urine bag 3 has a connecting end for connecting to the urine collector 1 (as shown in the attached image). Figure 7 (as shown on the left end) and the urinary end used to fix it (as attached) Figure 7As shown on the right end), the urination end 18 of the urine bag 3 is inserted into the urine collection pipe 19 pre-embedded behind the horse. The height of this urination end is much lower than the height of the connecting end, so that after the urine enters the connecting end of the urine bag 3, it can quickly flow into the urination end by its own gravity and enter the urine collection pipe 19 through the urine inlet 20.
[0047] The mare's urine flows smoothly into the urine bag 3 through the urine collector 1, the guide tube 2, and is not easily blocked. The urine outlet 18 of the urine bag 3 is inserted into the urine inlet 20 of the urine collection pipe 19 at the rear, allowing the mare's urine to be directly introduced into the pipe through the urine inlet 20 for unified collection.
[0048] The urine collection pipe 19 is evenly provided with multiple urine inlet ports 20. Each urine inlet port is inserted into the urine outlet of one horse's urine bag, which can be used to collect urine from multiple horses at the same time, and is suitable for the needs of intensive and large-scale breeding.
[0049] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
