Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a urine bag carrier suitable for holding and carrying a urinary catheter bag (urobag) used by patients after surgery, those in nursing facilities, etc., who have difficulty urinating in the toilet.
Background Art
[0002] For patients after surgery, those who have difficulty walking and cannot easily go to the toilet, the elderly, or those with urinary disorders who cannot control urination themselves, etc., for urine collection or urination, a urobag connected to a bladder indwelling catheter inserted into the bladder is often used. The urobag is made of a transparent soft resin bag, with graduations for reading urine volume marked on the surface. For example, a urine drainage tube connected to the urinary catheter is attached to its upper part, a tube occlusion clamp is attached to its lower part, and a drainage tube for discharging urine in the bag is provided.
[0003] Many urobags have a capacity of about 2 liters. When the urine volume is large, the volume also becomes large and it becomes a heavy object. When carrying and moving it, if there is no appropriate hanger for the urobag or when carrying it on a wheelchair, it is difficult to lay the urobag flat or keep the upper side of the urobag always upward, so there are cases where it may flow back into the introduction tube. Patent Document 1 describes a device that uses a rigid carrying case so that even when the urine volume increases and it becomes heavy, the bag will not rupture even if it is dropped without being affected by external forces.
[0004] Also, the urobag is usually attached to the bedside. When the urine reaches a predetermined amount, it is disconnected from the urinary catheter and carried to the toilet. After discharging the urine in it, it is reconnected to the urinary catheter and used again. When patients or the elderly use a wheelchair or a walker, they may attach this urinary catheter bag to the wheelchair or walker and move. Typically, urostomy bags are used exposed, with visitors or those coming to the bedside to talk or carrying the bag by hanging it from an IV stand. However, many people dislike the idea of others seeing the urine inside. To address this problem, Patent Document 2 describes carrying the urostomy bag in a storage bag. Patent Document 3 describes a cover for a urostomy bag that prevents it from being seen by others while also allowing for easy observation of the urine.
[0005] Furthermore, Patent Document 4 proposes a urine bag cover that can be used repeatedly and is cost-effective because it is disposable even if the urine odor permeates the cover. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]
[0006] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2008-99781 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2001-87298 [Patent Document 3] Patent No. 4879140 [Patent Document 4] Patent No. 7429324 [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]
[0007] In recent years, there has been a growing desire among patients with urinary disorders to lead as normal a social life as possible. The technology described in Patent Document 1 can accommodate high levels of activity when carrying a urobag while experiencing a large urine volume, but it is bulky and impractical because it uses a rigid carrying casing. Furthermore, while the technologies described in Patent Documents 2 and 3 cover the urine so that it is not visible and consider the ability to check the amount of urine, they do not consider the user's activity level when the amount of urine increases at all. The technology described in Patent Document 4 is designed to allow for easy disposal in case of contamination, but it completely fails to consider the user's activity level when the amount of urine increases.
[0008] The present invention aims to solve the above problems and provide a urobag carrying device that allows highly active users to safely and comfortably carry a urobag even when they have a large amount of urine. Furthermore, the present invention aims to provide a urine bag carrying device that can be easily reused even if it becomes contaminated with urine. [Means for solving the problem]

Mode for Carrying out the Invention
[0018] The present invention has the features as described above. Hereinafter, a detailed description will be given using an embodiment of the uro bag carrier of the present invention. In the description, front, rear, left, and right respectively mean front, rear, left, and right in the figure when the upper side when the uro bag is suspended is taken as the top. Note that the following embodiments do not limit the invention according to the claims. Although a plurality of features are described in the embodiments, not all of these plurality of features are essential to the present invention. FIG. 1 is an external view showing the unfolded state of an embodiment of the uro bag carrier of the present invention. The uro bag carrier 1 shown in FIG. 1 has a base material 2, a uro bag fixing belt 12, a belt fixing member 13, four wing portions (upper left wing 6, upper right wing 4, lower left wing 5, lower right wing 7), and elastic bands 8a and 8b.
[0019] The base material 2 is a base material large enough to accommodate the entire surface of the urobag body. Woven fabric is preferred, but nonwoven fabric or a sheet made of synthetic resin can also be used. The base material 2 in this embodiment has a bag placement section 2a on which the urobag body is placed, a right fold 2b, and a left fold 2c. The right fold 2b and the left fold 2c each have base material connectors 19 and 20, respectively, and when the right fold 2b and the left fold 2c are folded back in front of the bag placement section 2a, the right fold 2b and the left fold 2c can be engaged. In this embodiment, magnetic fasteners are used for the base material connectors 19 and 20, but any fasteners that can engage the right fold 2b and the left fold 2c, such as snap fasteners, buttons, zippers, hook-and-loop fasteners, or ties, are acceptable. It is not necessary to provide the folds on both the left and right sides; they may be provided on either the left or right side of the bag placement section 2a, below, above, etc. The upper side of the base material 2 has a handle 3 for carrying the urostomy bag carrier or for hanging it from a bedside or IV stand. In this embodiment, a handle 3 is also provided on the right fold 2b, and can be used together when folded. In addition, there are D-rings 16 at the left and right upper ends of the bag mounting section 2a. The D-rings 16 are a suspension means for suspending the base material 2a, and a shoulder strap can be attached to the D-rings 16 to suspend the urostomy bag carrier 1 from the shoulder. The suspension means of the present invention may be a member to which a shoulder strap or the like can be attached, such as a D-ring, or it may be the shoulder strap itself.
[0020] The urobag fixing belt 12 and belt fixing member 13 are upper bag holding parts positioned on the upper side of the bag mounting section 2a that holds the upper part of the urobag. The belt fixing member 13 is a hook-and-loop fastener attached directly below the handle 3 on the bag mounting section 2a, and can be detachably fixed to the hook-and-loop fastener 15 attached to the urobag fixing belt 12. The urobag fixing belt 12 is a cloth belt with one end fixed below the belt fixing member 13, and the other end is inserted from the back side (base material 2 side) of the urobag into a suspension hole 202 (Figure 7) provided on the upper side of the urobag placed on the base material 2, and is fixed to the belt fixing member 13 with the hook-and-loop fastener 15 attached to the urobag fixing belt, thereby fixing the upper part of the urobag to the base material 2. The urobag upper holding part is not limited to the above, and a snap hook, buckle belt, tie string, etc. may be used instead of the hook-and-loop fastener.
[0021] The upper left wing 6 and upper right wing 4 are attached to the bag mounting section 2a of the base material 2, at positions corresponding to the left and right sides of the upper end of the urobag when the urobag is placed on it, respectively. The lower left wing 5 and lower right wing 7 are attached to the left and right sides of the lower end of the urobag, respectively. The upper left wing 6, upper right wing 4, lower left wing 5, and lower right wing 7 are made of cloth and have a wing structure similar to the double-layered construction used in Japanese clothing. The upper left wing 6 and the lower right wing 7 are connected by an elastic first band 8a, and the upper right wing 4 and the lower left wing 5 are connected by an elastic second band 8b. The elastic bands (first band 8a, second band 8b) of the present invention can be made of flat woven elastic for sewing or the like. The width E of the elastic band (Figure 4) is preferably 1.5 to 3 cm. Because the present invention has the wing structure and the elastic band, the urobag can be held in place by the four wing sections and the elastic band when it is empty, and even if the urobag expands due to the inflow of contents, the deformation of the wing structure and the elastic band allows the urobag to expand. The wing structure will be described later.
[0022] Figure 2 shows an enlarged view of the upper right wing of the urobag carrying device shown in Figure 1 (Figure 2-1) and a schematic diagram of the PP cross-section showing the wing structure (Figure 2-2). The upper right wing 4 has a base material fixing part 41, a wing part 42, and a band fixing part 43. The upper side of the base material fixing part 41 is folded back to form the wing part 42. Therefore, the upper end of the wing part 42 is fixed to the upper side of the base material fixing part 41, and the other end of the wing part 42 can be freely bent up and down. The base material 2 consists of two pieces of fabric: a base material surface fabric 91 and a base material lining fabric 92. The base material fixing part 41 and the wing part 42 are continuous and consist of two pieces of fabric: a wing part surface fabric 93 and a wing part lining fabric 94. At the base material fixing part 41, the wing part surface fabric 93 and the base material lining fabric 92 are facing each other and in contact. The band fixing part 43 consists of two pieces of fabric, and one end of the second band 8b is sandwiched and fixed between them. The band fixing part 43 is sandwiched between the wing part surface fabric 93 and the wing part lining fabric 94 and fixed to the wing part 42. The band fixing portion 43 extends downward to the left from the wing portion 42 so that the second band 8b is arranged diagonally from the upper right to the lower left. Similarly, the wing portion 42 has an outer shape that is offset from the upper right to the lower left. With the above configuration, the wing portion 42 can rise from the base material 2 and bend freely. One end of the second band 8b is connected to the wing portion 42 via the band fixing portion 43. The base material 2 and the base material fixing part 41, the wing part 42 and the band fixing part 43, and the band fixing part 43 and the second band 8b are fixed by sewing, but they may be fixed by other methods that provide sufficient strength to withstand the weight of the urobag when the set amount of urine has been accumulated in the urobag, and that provide the necessary mobility of the wing part 42. Also, although this embodiment uses a configuration that sandwiches the urobag between two pieces of fabric, it is not limited to this. The width A1 of the base material fixing portion 41 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 to 10 cm. The height A2 of the base material fixing portion 41 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 3 to 8 cm. The distance A3 from the base material 2 side end of the wing portion 42 to the part where the second band 8b is exposed is not particularly limited, but is preferably 4 to 6 cm.
[0023] Figure 3 is an enlarged view of the lower left wing 5 of the urobag carrying device shown in Figure 1, with the base material 2 omitted. The lower left wing 5 has a base material fixing part 51 and a wing part 52. The lower side of the base material fixing part 51 is folded back to form the wing part 52. Therefore, the lower end of the wing part 52 is fixed to the lower side of the base material fixing part 51, and the other end of the wing part 52 can be freely bent up and down. The lower left wing 5 differs from the upper right wing 4 in that the second band 8b is sandwiched between the wing part 52, which is made of two pieces of fabric, and directly connected. The second band 8b extends from the upper right end of the wing part 52 in an upward-right direction so that it is arranged diagonally from the lower left to the upper right. Similarly, the wing part 52 has an outer shape that is offset from the lower left to the upper right. Furthermore, the width B1 of the base material fixing portion 51 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 to 10 cm. The height B2 of the base material fixing portion 51 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 2 to 5 cm. The distance B3 from the base material 2 side end of the wing portion 52 to the part where the second band 8b is exposed is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1.5 to 5 cm. Other than the above, it is the same as upper right wing 4 described above.
[0024] Figure 4 is an enlarged view of the upper left wing of the urobag carrying device shown in Figure 1, with the bell fixing member removed and the base material 2 omitted. The upper left wing 6 has a base material fixing part 61 and a wing part 62. The upper side of the base material fixing part 61 is folded back to form the wing part 62. Therefore, the upper end of the wing part 62 is fixed to the upper side of the base material fixing part 61, and the other end of the wing part 62 can be freely bent up and down. It also differs from the upper right wing 4 in that the band fixing part 65 is separable from the wing part 62, and the band fixing part 65 is connected to the first band 8a. The band fixing portion 65 is fitted with a button 18, which is a wing fixing portion for fixing to the wing portion 62, and the wing portion 62 is provided with a buttonhole 64, which is a wing fixing portion into which the button 18 is fitted. In this embodiment, the wing fixing portion is composed of a button 18 and a buttonhole 64, but it may also be detachably attached by another method (e.g., tying with a string, hook and eye) that provides sufficient strength to withstand the weight of the urobag when a set amount of urine has been accumulated in the urobag and provides the necessary mobility of the wing portion 42. The band fixing portion 43 extends downward to the left from the wing portion 42 so that the second band 8b is arranged diagonally from the upper right to the lower left. In addition, to match the arrangement of the first band 8a, the wing portion 62 has an outer shape that is offset from the upper left to the lower right. Furthermore, the width C1 of the base material fixing portion 61 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 to 10 cm. The height C2 of the base material fixing portion 61 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 3 to 8 cm. The distance B3 from the base material 2 side end of the wing portion 52 to the part where the second band 8b is exposed is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1.5 to 5 cm. Other than the above, it is the same as upper right wing 4 described above.
[0025] Figure 5 is an enlarged view of the lower right wing of the urobag carrying device shown in Figure 1, with the base material 2 omitted. The lower right wing 7 has a base material fixing portion 71 and a wing portion 72 attached to a wing fastening member 80 that is detachable from the base material 2. The wing fastening member 80 has a detachable portion 81 made of hook-and-loop fastener on its back side, and works in cooperation with a hook-and-loop fastener provided on the base material 2 facing the detachable portion 81 to allow the lower right wing 7 to be detachably attached to the base material 2. The lower right wing 7 is formed by folding back the lower side of the base material fixing portion 71 to create a wing portion 72, and the right side portion 73 of the wing portion 72 is sewn and fixed to the wing portion fastening cloth 80 from the upper end to the lower end. Therefore, the wing portion 72 forms a bag-like shape with the right end and lower end of the base material fixing portion 41 fixed, and the upper left end of the wing portion 72 can be freely bent within that range. The first band 8a is attached to the upper left end of the wing section 72, and the first band 8a is positioned diagonally toward the upper left wing 6. Since the wing fastening member 80 and the lower right wing 7 are formed in a bag shape, they can receive and cover the outlet of the urine bag's discharge tube. By constructing the wing fastening member 80 and the lower right wing 7 from a highly water-repellent material, the amount of urine that leaks out is reduced, thus minimizing contamination. Furthermore, the width D1 of the base material fixing portion 71 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 4 to 8 cm. The height D2 of the base material fixing portion 71 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 to 8 cm. For all other matters, it is the same as in the upper right wing 4 described above.
[0026] In this embodiment, the pillow fixing member 10 is attached to the lower side of the belt fixing member 13 on the upper side of the base material 2, and slightly below the raised position of the wing portion 42 of the upper right wing 4 and the raised position of the wing portion 62 of the upper left wing 6. (Figure 1) Furthermore, the lower end of the pillow fixing member 10 of the base material 2 has a pillow holding belt 11, one end of which is attached to the left and right sides of the urobag fixing belt 12. Near the other end of the pillow holding belt 11, a hook-and-loop fastener 14 is provided that can be fixed to the belt fixing member 13. Figure 6 is an external view showing the urobag carrying device shown in Figure 1 with a pillow attached. The pillow 100 is detachably fixed to the pillow fixing part 10. The pillow fixing part 10 and the pillow 100 have pillow-side fixing means 110 on the parts facing the base material 2. The pillow fixing part 10 and the pillow-side fixing means 110 are corresponding hook-and-loop fasteners. The pillow fixing part 10 and the pillow fixing means 110 only need to properly fix the pillow, and may be fixed in a way that prevents detachment. Furthermore, the pillow-holding belt 11 is passed from the underside of the pillow 100 through the front side of the pillow 100 and secured to the belt fixing member 13 with hook-and-loop fasteners 14 so as to press the pillow-holding belt 11 against it.
[0027] Figure 7 is an external view showing the urobag attached to and held in the urobag carrying device with a pillow, as shown in Figure 6. The urobag 200 has a suspension hole 202, a suspension support part 201, and a urinary catheter tube 203 on its upper side, and a discharge tube 204 extending to the right from near the lower center of the urobag 200 on its lower side, with a discharge tube opening 205 at its tip. The discharge tube 204 has a tube opener 206 that opens and closes the lumen of the discharge tube. The discharge tube opening 205 is located near the lower right end of the urobag 200. The urinary catheter tube 203 is also provided on the upper part of the urobag 200, and urine from the catheter tube flows into the urobag, but the connection part 208 of the catheter tube 203 to the urobag 200 is structured to ensure the inflow of urine. The urobag 200 is positioned such that its upper end is slightly below the raised position of the wing section 42 of the upper right wing 4 and the raised position of the wing section 62 of the upper left wing 6, and its lower end is slightly above the raised position of the wing section 72 of the lower right wing 7 and the raised position of the wing section 52 of the lower left wing 5, and is also placed on the underside of the first band 8a and the second band 8b. The urobag 200 will be surrounded by the four wings and the elastic first and second bands. Furthermore, since the discharge tube opening 205 is located near the lower right end of the urobag 200 and corresponds to the lower right wing 7, the discharge tube opening 205 is covered by the wing portion 72. As a result, urine residue remaining or adhering to the discharge tube opening is not exposed, and even if leakage is observed, scattering can be prevented.
[0028] The urobag carrying device of the present invention is characterized by having the wing structure and the elastic band. This feature allows the urobag to be held by the four wing portions and the elastic band. The wing structure and the elastic band are joined to form a bag holding structure, and the urobag is held between the base material and the bag holding structure. Even when the urobag is empty, the elastic band holds the urobag in place within the bag-holding structure. When urine flows into the urobag during use, it gradually expands. The urobag has a set urine storage capacity of 2000-2500 ml, and when the maximum amount is stored, the urobag expands to a thickness of approximately 9 cm. The elastic band stretches to accommodate the expansion of the urobag while holding it in place. However, with only the elastic band, the reaction force of the stretch is directly applied to the urobag, hindering its expansion and making it difficult to store urine up to the urobag's maximum capacity. The present invention has four wing structures at the four corners of the urobag that receive the urobag. Since the wing structures can rise from the base material 2, they can accommodate the expansion of the urobag without significantly deforming the elastic band. Therefore, because the deformation of the elastic band is minimal, the reaction force of the urobag is reduced, allowing the urobag to inflate to its maximum urine storage capacity.
[0029] Figure 8 is an external view showing the urobag carrying device with the urobag shown in Figure 7 attached, with both sides folded back to cover the urobag itself. In this embodiment, the right fold 2b and left fold 2c provided on the base material 2 are folded so that the right fold 2b is on the front side, and the right fold 2b and left fold 2c engage with the base material connectors 19 and 20, which consist of magnetic hooks attached to the right fold 2b and left fold 2c respectively, thereby covering and concealing the urobag 200. Furthermore, the bag mounting section 2a, which corresponds to the upper part of the portion where the right fold 2b and the left fold 2c engage, has a retaining wing 9 that holds the right fold 2b and the left fold 2c in place so that they do not open. The retaining wing 9 has a buttonhole 21, and a button 20 attached to the right fold 2b, which is located on the front side of the engaged portion, is fitted into the buttonhole 21, so that the folds do not open.
[0030] Figure 9 shows an enlarged view (Figure 9-1) of the pillow of the urobag carrying device shown in Figure 1, and a schematic diagram of the QQ cross-section (Figure 9-2). The pillow 100 of the present invention is configured to be higher on the top and lower on the bottom. If the urobag contains urine and is placed on its side, there is a possibility that urine may flow back from the urinary catheter connection part 208 into the urinary catheter 203. However, if the urobag carrying device of the present invention to which the urobag is attached is provided with the pillow 100, even if the urobag carrying device 1 is placed on its side, the upper part of the urobag will rise from the urobag body due to the pillow 100, thereby preventing urine from flowing back. The lower portion of the pillow 100 corresponding to the position where the pillow holding belt 11 of the base material 2 is provided has a recess 120, which improves the retention of the urobag 200. The width F6 of the pillow 100 should be long enough for the upper part of the urobag 100 to rest on, and is usually 25-35 cm. The width F1 of the recess 120 should be long enough for the pillow holding belt 11 to make contact, and is usually 6-10 cm. The pillow 100 has a pillow top surface 101, a pillow bottom surface 102, a pillow back surface 103, a pillow front inclined surface 105, and a pillow front flat portion 104. The pillow back surface 102 is provided with a hook-and-loop fastener 110 that connects to the pillow fixing member 10. The height F3 of the pillow top surface 101 is the height at which the pillow top surface 101 rises from the base material 2 of the pillow 100, and is preferably 4.5 to 5.5 cm. The height F4 of the pillow bottom surface 102 is the height at which the pillow bottom surface 102 rises from the base material 2 of the pillow 100, and is preferably 1.5 to 2.5 cm. The vertical length F2 of the base material 2 on the pillow back surface 103 is preferably 5 to 6 cm. The vertical length F5 of the base material 2 on the pillow front inclined surface 105 is preferably 3 to 4 cm. The flat surface portion 104 of the pillow is a surface that extends upward from the lower end of the pillow 100 and is approximately parallel to the surface of the base material 2. Its length is the difference between F2 and F5, but is preferably 1.5 to 3 cm. The pillow 100 only needs to be able to hold the upper part of the urobag 100 at an angle from the base material 2, and can be made of sponge, polystyrene foam, expanded polyethylene, etc. It may also have a wrapping cloth that wraps around the pillow material cut into a predetermined shape. The angle θ of the pillow surface inclined surface 105 with respect to the base material 2 is preferably 35 to 45°. The pillow surface inclined surface 105 may be composed of multiple steps, in which case the angle of the pillow surface inclined surface is the angle that a straight line containing the vertices of each step makes with the base material 2 in the cross-section of the pillow 100.
