Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ostomy bag technology, specifically to a device for collecting the contents of an ostomy bag. Background Technology

[0002] Ostomy bags, caused by diseases of the digestive or urinary systems, require surgical treatment to separate the intestinal tract and bring one end of the intestinal tract to the body surface (such as the anus or urethra, which is then moved to the abdominal wall). The resulting opening is called a stoma. An ostomy bag is used to store bodily waste, such as urine and feces, referred to below as "contents." To maintain hygiene, the ostomy bag needs to be changed or washed frequently. For users using disposable ostomy bags, simply changing the bag is sufficient. For users using washable, reusable ostomy bags, the contents need to be drained immediately and the bag cleaned.

[0003] The traditional ostomy bag cleaning process is as follows: the user sits or lies down, lifts up their clothes to expose the ostomy bag, and holds the ostomy bag with one hand; then another person assists in opening the drain outlet at the bottom of the stoma to drain the contents of the ostomy bag into a trash can or garbage bag, seals it, and then discards it.

[0004] The existing ostomy bag cleaning process is not problematic, but it requires assistance from others. For those who value privacy or where no one can assist, draining the contents of the ostomy bag becomes difficult. There is an urgent need for a collection device that allows users to easily and independently clean the contents of their ostomy bags. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a device for collecting the contents of an ostomy bag to solve the problem that it is difficult for a single user to drain the contents of the ostomy bag during use.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: an ostomy bag contents collection device, including a bag body and a bag opening for the outlet of the ostomy bag to extend into;

[0007] The bag body includes a front piece and a back piece connected at their edges, and the bag opening includes a front bag opening and a back bag opening. An easy-tear tab is provided at the front bag opening, and an easy-tear seam is provided between the easy-tear tab and the front bag opening to make the two easy to separate.

[0008] The diameter of the bag opening is smaller than the diameter of the bag body; a connector for connecting to the ostomy bag is provided on the side of the rear bag opening facing the front bag opening, and a fastener for fixing the bag body is provided on the side away from the front bag opening.

[0009] With the above technical solution, during use, the rear opening is connected to the ostomy bag via a connector, and the bag body is fixed to the user's abdomen or held in place by the user with one hand, allowing the user to free up their other hand to open the ostomy bag's outlet. Regarding the function of the easy-tear tab and easy-tear seam, since different ostomy bags have different outlet lengths, the easy-tear tab can be opened to different opening sizes as needed. This allows the user to easily open the ostomy bag's outlet without assistance from others, and it is applicable to different types of ostomy bags.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0011] Furthermore, the fixing element is a hanging ring for inserting a finger.

[0012] With the above technical solution, the hanging ring allows fingers to be inserted, so that the bag can be lifted with one hand, and the bag can be fixed relative to the ostomy bag, making it convenient for the user to open the drainage port of the ostomy bag with the other hand.

[0013] Furthermore, the fastener is a strap.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, the strap can be tied to the user's abdomen to fix the bag or assist in fixing the bag, so that the user can free up their hands to open the drainage port of the ostomy bag, and thus conveniently drain the contents of the ostomy bag.

[0015] Furthermore, the connector is an adhesive strip that extends along the front opening of the bag to near the tear seam.

[0016] It should be understood that the adhesive strip can be an adhesive layer or other layered structure with adhesive properties; the adhesive strip attaches the back bag opening and the front bag opening to the outside of the ostomy bag on both sides near the back bag opening, which can play a good auxiliary fixing role and also play a sealing and splash-proof role, so that the user can open the discharge port of the ostomy bag more conveniently and does not have to worry too much about the contents splashing out.

[0017] Furthermore, a transition section connecting the bag opening and the bag body is provided, and a pull cord is provided on the outside of the transition section, with a loop for the pull cord to pass through.

[0018] With the above technical solution, the rope loop is used for the pull rope to pass through, and the pull rope can tighten the transition section so that the contents can be packaged after they have been discharged.

[0019] Furthermore, the bag body is a cloth bag or a plastic bag.

[0020] It should be understood that this collection device can be made of cloth or plastic, and can be made for single use or made of cloth into a recyclable product.

[0021] Furthermore, the tear-resistant seam is connected by a zipper, by Velcro, or by discontinuous connection points.

[0022] Furthermore, a receiving pocket is provided on one side of the bag.

[0023] The above technical solution allows the pocket to be used to store disposable garbage bags, tissues, and other items.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] 1. Users can use the fasteners on the side of the front opening closest to the body to fix the bag body relative to the ostomy bag, thereby freeing up at least one hand to open the outlet of the ostomy bag, so that the contents of the ostomy bag can be easily discharged without the assistance of others.

[0026] 2. The sides of the rear and front openings of the ostomy bag can be connected to the outer wall of the ostomy bag via connectors, so that the upper part of the collection device fits tightly against the side of the ostomy bag closest to the human body, which can better prevent the contents of the ostomy bag from splashing onto the user's body.

The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 An ostomy bag contents collection device includes a bag body 1 and a bag opening 2 for the outlet 8 of the ostomy bag 7 to extend into. The bag body 1 includes a front piece and a back piece with their edges connected together, and the bag opening 2 includes a front bag opening 21 and a back bag opening 22. Here, the front piece and the front bag opening 21 refer to the side located away from the human body, and the back piece and the back bag opening 22 refer to the side close to the human body.

[0041] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The opening diameter of the bag 2 is smaller than the opening diameter of the bag body 1, so that the bag body 1 can hold more contents without worrying about overflow; the opening diameter of the bag 2 is slightly larger than the outlet diameter of most ostomy bags 7 on the market.

[0042] A connector 3 for connecting to the ostomy bag 7 is provided on the side of the rear bag opening 22 facing the front bag opening 21. The connector 3 is an adhesive strip, which is an adhesive layer, a gel layer or other layer structure with adhesive properties. The adhesive strip extends along the front bag opening 21 to near the tear seam 24. The connector 3 allows the rear bag opening 22 and the parts of the front bag opening 21 near the sides to be bonded to the outer side of the ostomy bag 7, which can seal the bag opening 2 and the ostomy bag 7, thereby effectively preventing the contents of the ostomy bag 7 from splashing out from the gap when discharged.

[0043] A fastener is provided on the side opposite to the front bag opening 21. The fastener is a hanging ring 41 for inserting a finger. The fastener is used to allow the user to easily fix the bag opening 2 and the bag body 1, so as to prevent the collection device from shaking or falling off relative to the ostomy bag 7 during use.

[0044] When using,

[0048] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 A transition section 5 is provided between the bag opening 2 and the bag body 1 to connect the two. A pull rope 51 is provided on the outside of the transition section 5, and a rope loop 52 is provided on the outside of the transition section 5 for the pull rope 51 to pass through. The pull rope 51 can be tightened to close the bag opening 2, and the pull rope 51 can also be used to tie the bag opening 2 to prevent odor leakage.

[0049] Preferably, the bag opening 2 and the bag body 1 are made of plastic, that is, the whole bag is a plastic bag, and the easy-tear seam 24 is formed by discontinuous connection points, so it can be disposed of after use.

[0050] Example 2:

[0051] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 An ostomy bag contents collection device, which differs from Embodiment 1 in that the bag opening 2 and the bag body 1 are made of cloth, that is, the whole is in the form of a cloth bag;

[0052] As a preferred option, a waterproof lining can be provided on the inside of the bag body 1 and the bag opening 2, and a zipper or Velcro can be used at the easy-tear seam 24.

[0053] Alternatively, a disposable garbage bag can be placed inside the bag body 1, with the bag body 1 serving only as a support, and the disposable garbage bag can be discarded after use.

[0054] Example 3:

[0055] refer to Figure 4 An ostomy bag contents collection device differs from Embodiment 1 in that the fixing element is a strap 42. The strap 42 can be tied around the user's abdomen, thus fixing the collection device to the user's abdomen, i.e., it is connected to the ostomy bag 7 (see reference). Figure 2 It is relatively fixed, thus avoiding the situation where the collection device shakes or falls off relative to the ostomy bag 7 during use.

[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
