Background Technology

[0002] A urine cup is a container used to collect urine samples, typically for urine analysis, testing, and diagnosis. Currently used urine cups are generally disposable plastic cups, usually consisting of a funnel and a container for holding the urine sample. However, traditional urine cups are mostly open-mouthed, lacking a structure to seal the opening. The urine sample inside the container is directly exposed, making it troublesome to carry and deliver the sample for testing. In particular, the urine sample may accidentally splash out during transport, causing pollution to the surrounding environment. Furthermore, prolonged contact with the external environment can also lead to contamination of the urine sample, resulting in large errors in the test results, which is detrimental to patient treatment. Chinese utility model patent, entitled "A Novel Urine Collection Device," with patent number ZL201921686698.1 and publication date of October 10, 2019, includes a urine collection box and a test tube.
