Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a male urinary incontinence clamp, and more particularly, to a male urinary incontinence clamp including a first clamp unit having an annular inner surface and including a first penis fixing part, and a second clamp unit having an outer surface and including a gripping part and a second penis fixing part, and capable of appropriately adjusting the force for compressing the urethra.

Background Art

[0002] Urinary incontinence is a phenomenon in which urination occurs regardless of one's own will, and in recent years, as the aging population increases with the extension of the average life span, the incidence rate thereof is actually increasing. Types of such urinary incontinence include genuine urinary incontinence in which urination occurs without any inducing factors, stress urinary incontinence that occurs when abdominal pressure rises due to sneezing or coughing, urge urinary incontinence in which urination cannot be suppressed when the urge to urinate occurs, and overflow urinary incontinence that occurs when urine fills the bladder and overflows.

[0003] In particular, along with the increase in the elderly population, prostate-related diseases such as benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer due to Westernization of the diet have been increasing, and the incidence rate of urinary incontinence after treatment of these diseases reaches 5 to 45%.

[0004] As described above, male stress urinary incontinence that occurs as a result of sphincter dysfunction after treatment of prostate diseases causes great inconvenience to patients, and thus efforts have been made to enable them to lead their daily lives using diapers, pads, condom catheters, etc. This is the current situation.

[0005] In order to prevent urinary incontinence that occurs during the daily life process regardless of the will of the individual as described above, urinary incontinence prevention devices or urinary incontinence prevention instruments have been developed and used.

[0006] Conventional urinary incontinence prevention devices focus solely on preventing urinary incontinence by compressing the urethra of the penis. However, these products are large in size and cannot actively adapt to the user's wearing environment (changes in penis size). This results in increased discomfort for the user due to the continuous strong pressure on the penis, and serious problems such as penile necrosis.

[0007] Furthermore, with conventional urinary incontinence prevention devices, insufficient ventilation may occur when worn, potentially leading to skin conditions around the penis and creating undesirable hygienic problems.

[0008] Furthermore, conventional urinary incontinence prevention devices primarily used a method that utilized the elastic force of a rubber elastic means to compress the urethra of the penis. However, repeated contraction and relaxation of the elastic means reduced its elasticity, leading to problems with insufficient compression of the urethra. In addition, the rubber material would wear down or deteriorate over time, eventually breaking and rendering the device unusable. This also resulted in the inconvenience of having to replace the rubber elastic means.

[0009] Therefore, there is a need to develop a male urinary incontinence prevention device (clamp) that allows for adjustment of the pressure applied to the penis in terms of urinary incontinence prevention function, improves ventilation performance, and extends the lifespan of the device semi-permanently by preventing wear and tear over time in terms of device durability. [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0010] The technical problem that this invention aims to solve is to provide a male urinary incontinence clamp device that is easy for the user to attach and detach, is miniaturized, allows for adjustment of the pressure applied to the penis, and has improved ventilation performance.

[0011] To achieve the above objective, the present invention provides a magnetic male urinary incontinence clamp, comprising: a first clamp unit having an annular inner surface and including a first penis fixing portion; and a second clamp unit having an outer surface and including a gripping portion and a second penis fixing portion, wherein the outer surface of the second clamp unit is in close contact and fixed to the inner surface of the first clamp unit, and the penis is fixed by the first and second penis fixing portions as the second clamp unit slides along the inner surface of the first clamp unit.

[0012] Furthermore, the first clamping unit may include a first magnetic element, and the second clamping unit may include a second magnetic element, and the first and second magnetic elements may be arranged to generate an attractive force between them.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner surface of the first clamp unit may include one or more first braking members, and the outer surface of the second clamp unit may include one or more second braking members that are structurally corresponding to the one or more first braking members.

[0014] Furthermore, the first magnetic section may include one or more first damping members, and the second magnetic section may include one or more second damping members that are structurally corresponding to the one or more first damping members.

[0015] Furthermore, the surface of the first or second penile fixing portion is made of an elastic material, and a plurality of irregularities made of the elastic material may be formed on the surface.

[0016] Furthermore, the width of the multiple irregularities may be characterized by being 0.05 to 1.0 times the length in the z-axis direction.

[0017] Furthermore, the height of the multiple irregularities may be characterized by protruding from the surface by 0.1 to 2.0 mm along the x-axis direction or the direction opposite to the x-axis.

[0018] Furthermore, the elastic material may be characterized by being an elastic material containing silicon.

[0019] Further, the elastic material containing silicon is characterized by mixing silicon and a rubber material. The rubber material can be one or more selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, natural rubber, polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate, latex, silicone rubber, styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer, styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene copolymer, polyvinyl alcohol, butyl rubber, chloroprene rubber, and polyurethane.

[0028] Specifically, the form of the first clamp unit shown in Figure 1 is an example of a rectangular annular shape, and the annular shape in this specification basically means a shape in which the central part is open.

[0029] On the other hand, a rounded shape can be a polygonal shape with rounded corners. Taking a quadrilateral as an example, it can be a quadrilateral with rounded corners, and such a quadrilateral can be a shape in which the vertices of a quadrilateral are rounded. Although a quadrilateral was used as an example above, the term "polygon" is not to be interpreted as being limited to quadrilaterals.

[0030] In other words, the annular form described herein is not limited to any form in which the second clamp unit can slide along the inner surface of the first clamp unit, which will be described later.

[0031] In this specification, the inner surface may mean the inner surface of the annular unit, and the interior may mean the interior of the annular unit.

[0041] The gripping portion may be formed in the form of a lumen opening in the center of the second clamp unit, or in the form of a groove in the center, and is not limited as long as it is in a form that allows the user to grip the second clamp unit.

[0042] The first penis fixing portion may be located at the lower part of the inner surface of the first clamp unit, and specifically, it may be located on the inner surface of the first clamp unit formed in the y-axis direction, and may be formed as a U-shape or ∩ shape capable of accommodating and compressing the penis.

[0043] The second penis fixing portion may be located at the lower part of the outer surface of the second clamp unit, specifically on the outer surface of the second clamp unit formed in the y-axis direction, and capable of accommodating and compressing the penis. ∩Form 222 or U form 221 It can be formed as follows.

[0044] Here, U form 221 This means that the area where the penis makes contact is a recess, and the penis is housed in the recess. ∩Form 222 This refers to a configuration where the area of ​​contact with the penis is convex, and the penis is compressed by this convex area.

[0045] Specifically, the first and second penile fixing parts may have similar shapes, and examples include cases where the first and second penile fixing parts are U-shaped, and cases where the first and second penile fixing parts are ∩-shaped.

[0047] Here, the U-shape or ∩-shape is not limited as long as it has a predetermined curvature and can accommodate the penis.

[0048] The second penis fixing part can compress the penis in the x-axis direction by sliding the second clamp unit.

[0049] Figures 1a and 1b show the operating state of a male urinary incontinence clamp device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0050] Figure 1a shows the state before the second clamp unit slides along the inner surface of the first clamp unit, and before the second penis fixing part descends.

[0051] Figure 1b shows the state in which the second clamp unit slides along the inner surface of the first clamp unit, causing the second penis fixing part to descend.

[0052] In the present invention, the first clamp unit includes a first magnetic force section, and the second clamp unit includes a second magnetic force section, and the first and second magnetic force sections may be arranged such that an attractive force is generated between them.

[0053] In the present invention, the first magnetic force portion may be included in the first clamp unit, but more specifically, it may be formed at the bottom of the first clamp unit, and the second magnetic force portion may be formed on the outer surface of the second clamp unit. In this case, the second clamp unit may slide along the inner surface of the first clamp unit due to the mutual attractive force between the first and second magnetic force portions, and the second clamp unit may be positioned below the first clamp unit and arranged in parallel.

[0054] The first magnetic section and the second magnetic section may be formed by including magnets within predetermined housing spaces formed in the first clamp unit and the second clamp unit, respectively. For example, the magnets may be mounted and fixed within the housing space.

[0055] The magnet may be a permanent magnet or an electromagnet, and from the viewpoint of miniaturizing or simplifying the device, it is preferable that a permanent magnet is mounted and fixed within the housing space.

[0056] The first magnetic section may include a magnet with either a north or south pole, and the second magnetic section may also include a magnet with either a north or south pole. For the second clamp unit to slide along the inner surface of the first clamp unit due to mutual attractive forces between the first and second magnetic sections, the first and second magnetic sections must each have opposite polarities. For example, if the first magnetic sections located on both sides of the first clamp unit are north poles, the second magnetic sections located on both sides of the second clamp unit must be south poles, and if the first magnetic sections located on both sides of the first clamp unit are south poles, the second magnetic sections located on both sides of the second clamp unit must be north poles.

[0057] The magnet may contain a magnetic material, which may be one or more substances selected from the group consisting of iron (Fe), copper (Cu), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), samarium (Sm), and aluminum (Al).

[0058] The magnets included in the first or second magnetic section may be one or more selected from the group consisting of neodymium magnets, ferrite magnets, alnico magnets, and samarium-cobalt magnets.

[0059] Male urinary incontinence is a condition that occurs when the urethral sphincter is unable to retain urine due to a decrease in its function. It is generally known that the pressure can rise to 120 cmH2O when sneezing or coughing is added to the equation.

[0060] Therefore, in order to reliably prevent urinary incontinence, it is necessary to compress the urethra with a pressure of 130 cmH2O or more. In this invention, by adjusting the magnetic force of the magnet, the second penile fixing part descends and maintains a pressure of 130 cmH2O or more that compresses the penis, urinary incontinence that occurs when a strong sneeze or cough is added can also be effectively prevented.

[0061] In order to adjust the pressure applied to the urethra, it is necessary to adjust the magnetic force of the magnets included in the magnetic field unit and the attractive force acting between each magnet to a predetermined range.

[0062] The magnetic force of the magnets included in the magnetic section can be adjusted to 3000-5000G, which can reduce or increase the pressure on the penis. However, if the magnetic force is less than 3000G, the pressure applied to the urethra may be reduced, making it difficult to adequately suppress urinary incontinence. If it exceeds 5000G, the penis may be excessively compressed, causing pain to the user, impeding smooth blood circulation, damaging penile tissue, or resulting in urinary dysfunction.

[0063] As an extension of the adjustment of the magnetic force described above, the attractive force between the magnets in the first or second magnetic force section can be adjusted to 3.0 to 10.0 kgf, thereby reducing or increasing the force compressing the penis. However, if the attractive force is less than 3.0 kgf, the pressure applied to the urethra may be reduced, making it difficult to adequately suppress urinary incontinence. If it exceeds 10 kgf, the penis may be excessively compressed, causing pain to the user, impeding smooth blood circulation and damaging penile tissue, or resulting in urinary dysfunction.

[0064] Conventional techniques that use the elastic force of elastic materials to compress the penis do not allow for easy adjustment of the compression force, and the elastic force of the material can act instantaneously on the penis, potentially causing the user to experience pain when wearing the device.

[0065] The present invention improves upon the above-mentioned conventional problems by utilizing the magnetic force between the first clamp unit and the second clamp unit, which are equipped with magnetic parts. Specifically, the second clamp unit slides due to the magnetic force, and the force acting on the penis is gradually applied, thereby reducing the impact force applied to the penis and improving the wearing comfort by eliminating pain in the penis during fixation.

[0066] In the present invention, the inner surface of the first clamp unit includes one or more first braking members as shown in Figures 2a and 4a, and the outer surface of the second clamp unit may include one or more second braking members that are structurally corresponding to the one or more first braking members.

[0067] Specifically, one or more first braking members may be formed on the inner surface of the first clamp unit, and one or more second braking members may be formed on the outer surface of the second clamp unit that can be coupled in correspondence with the one or more first braking members.

[0068] The connection referred to here may be instantaneous, but it can also mean a connection that engages at corresponding parts of each component as the second clamp unit moves due to magnetic force.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first braking member may be in the form of a braking step or a braking projection, and the second braking member may also be in the form of a braking step or a braking projection. However, if the first braking member is in the form of a braking step, the second braking member may be a correspondingly connectable braking projection, and if the first braking member is in the form of a braking projection, the second braking member may be a correspondingly connectable braking step.

[0070] One to ten first braking members may be formed on the inner surface of the first clamp unit, and corresponding to the first braking members Second braking member As the two clamp units are joined, and the second clamp unit slides along the inner surface of the first clamp unit by magnetic force, the impact force applied to the penis can be mitigated.

[0071] It is coupled in correspondence with the first braking member. Second braking member The position of the first braking member is adjustable and can be adjusted according to the size of the penis by operating the gripping part. When the diameter of the penis is large, the position of the first braking member may be located on the upper part of the second clamping unit, and when the size of the penis is small, the position of the braking member may be located on the lower part of the second clamping unit.

[0072] For example, if the first braking members are numbered according to their position on the inner surface of the first clamp unit, they can be numbered as the 1st first braking member, the 2nd first braking member, the 3rd first braking member, and so on, in the direction of the slide's movement. Second clamp unit The outer surfaces of the components can be numbered as follows, according to the direction of the slide: 1st second braking member, 2nd second braking member, 3rd second braking member, and so on. The first braking member may be a braking step, and the second braking member may be a braking projection.

[0073] When the second clamp unit slides due to magnetic force, the third second braking member and the first first braking member first engage, and when the second clamp unit is lowered by the gripping part, the third second braking member and No. 2, first braking member and can be combined.

[0074] The position where the first braking member and the second braking member are joined can be arbitrarily adjusted by the user before the second clamp unit slides. For example, in the above example, the third first braking member and the second second braking member can be joined first. This allows the impact force applied to the penis by the second penis fixing part to be mitigated according to the size of the user's penis.

[0075] On the other hand, from another perspective, the first or second braking member may be a magnet with a north or south pole, and the first and second braking members may be magnets with opposite polarities. The first and second braking members may be configured to be coupled together by attractive force.

[0076] Specifically, if one or more first braking members are north poles, the corresponding one or more second braking members may be south poles, and if one or more first braking members are south poles, the corresponding one or more second braking members may be north poles.

[0077] One to ten magnetic first braking members may be formed on the inner surface of the first clamp unit, and one to ten magnetic second braking members may be formed on the outer surface of the second clamp unit.

[0078] multiple Braking member As the two clamp units are joined and the second clamp unit slides along the inner surface of the first clamp unit by magnetic force, the impact force applied to the penis can be mitigated.

[0079] It is coupled in correspondence with the first braking member. Second braking member The position of the first braking member is adjustable and can be adjusted according to the size of the penis by operating the gripping part. When the diameter of the penis is large, the position of the first braking member may be located on the upper part of the second clamping unit, and when the size of the penis is small, the position of the braking member may be located on the lower part of the second clamping unit.

[0080] For example, if the first braking members are numbered according to their position on the inner surface of the first clamp unit, they can be numbered as the 1st first braking member, the 2nd first braking member, the 3rd first braking member, and so on, in the direction of the slide's movement. Second clamp unit The outer surfaces of the components can be numbered as follows, according to the direction of the slide: 1st second braking member, 2nd second braking member, 3rd second braking member, and so on. The first braking member may be a magnet with a north pole, and the second braking member may be a magnet with a south pole.

[0081] When the second clamp unit slides due to magnetic force, the third second braking member and the first first braking member first engage, and when the second clamp unit is lowered by the gripping part, the third second braking member and No. 2, first braking member and can be combined.

[0082] The position where the first braking member and the second braking member are joined can be arbitrarily adjusted by the user before the second clamp unit slides. For example, in the above example, the third first braking member and the second second braking member can be joined first. This allows the impact force applied to the penis by the second penis fixing part to be mitigated according to the size of the user's penis.

[0083] Figures 3a and 3b show the state in which the first braking member and the second braking member are coupled and operating according to one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figures 3a and 3b, it can be understood that the braking members are sequentially coupled as described above as the second clamp unit slides along the inner surface of the first clamp unit.

[0084] In the present invention, the first penile fixing part or the second penile fixing part may include an elastic material.

[0085] In the present invention, the surface of the first or second penile fixing portion is made of an elastic material, and a plurality of irregularities made of the elastic material may be formed on the surface.

[0086] The aforementioned irregularities can exist in various forms, such as protrusions and embossing, and are not limited to these forms, but can be applied as long as they secure space between the irregularities and improve ventilation when the penis is fixed in place.

[0087] The multiple bumps and grooves provide support to the penis, allowing air to circulate through the gaps, which can improve blood circulation in the penis compared to cases without bumps and grooves, reduce discomfort during wear, and prevent secretions from directly contacting the silicone, thus preventing deformation, loss of elasticity, or decay of the silicone due to secretions.

[0088] In the present invention, the width of the irregularities refers to the length of the irregularities formed along the z-axis direction, and the width of the plurality of irregularities is 0.05 to 1.0 times the z-axis length. Width of the aforementioned unevenness If the ratio is less than 0.05, it becomes difficult to secure space between the penis and each penile fixing part, which may result in a lack of ventilation. If the ratio exceeds 1.0, the width of the unevenness may exceed the length of the penile fixing part formed in the z-axis direction.

[0089] The height of the aforementioned irregularities refers to the length of the irregularities formed along the x-axis direction or the opposite direction of the x-axis. The height of the multiple irregularities may protrude 0.1 to 2.0 mm from the surface of the first or second penile fixing part. However, if the height of the irregularities is less than 0.1 mm, it may become difficult to secure space between the penis and each penile fixing part, potentially leading to a lack of ventilation. If it exceeds 2.0 mm, problems may arise in fixing the penis in the x-axis direction.

[0090] Figure 6a shows, U form Figure 6b shows the multiple irregularities formed on the second penile fixing part in three dimensions in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions, and Figure 6b shows the multiple irregularities formed in the x-axis direction on the surface of the second penile fixing part as viewed from the opposite direction of the z-axis direction.

[0091] Figure 6c shows, ∩Form Figure 6d shows the multiple irregularities formed on the second penile fixing part in three dimensions in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions, and Figure 6d shows the multiple irregularities formed in the x-axis direction on the surface of the second penile fixing part as viewed from the opposite direction of the z-axis direction.

[0092] Figure 7a is a diagram showing the multiple irregularities formed on the ∩-shaped first penile fixing part in three dimensions in the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis directions, and Figure 7b is a diagram showing the multiple irregularities formed on the surface of the first penile fixing part in the opposite direction to the x-axis, as viewed from the opposite direction to the z-axis.

[0093] The aforementioned multiple bumps and ridges can be arranged at intervals of 0.1 to 1.0 mm in the y-axis direction. However, if the interval is less than 0.1 mm, the bumps and ridges may be too densely arranged, making it difficult to secure space and potentially resulting in poor ventilation. If the interval exceeds 1.0 mm, problems may arise in fixing the penis in the lateral direction, and the effect of the bumps and ridges on the surface of the penis fixing part may be lost.

[0094] The elastic material on the surface of the first or second penile fixing part may be a silicone-containing elastic material, specifically characterized by being a mixture of silicone and a rubber material, the rubber material may be one or more selected from the group consisting of acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), natural rubber (NR), polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), latex, silicone rubber, styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer (SIS), styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene copolymer (SEBS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), butyl rubber, chloroprene rubber, and polyurethane (PU).

[0095] The ratio of the weight of the rubber material to the weight of the silicone and the total rubber material mixture can be mixed in a weight ratio range of 1:2 to 1:4. If the weight of the rubber material relative to the weight of the silicone is less than 2, there may be a problem in obtaining sufficient elasticity to compress the penis and prevent urinary incontinence, and if it exceeds 4, there may be a problem in being unable to ensure smooth blood circulation in the penis.
