ABSTRACT:
A molded container functioning as a urinal has a hollow body, neck and mouth. This neck extends outwardly at an obtuse angle with respect to the length of the bodyand terminates at the mouth. This mouth has a lip marking an oval opening to the neck. The height of this oval opening of the mouth is a linear dimension substantially coplanar with the longitudinal axes of the body and the neck. The height of the oval opening exceeds its width. This mouth, when viewed parallel to the width and height of said mouth, has a concave and convex outline, respectively. The lip can be shaped as an inwardly folded flange. The hollow body has a service side on which the container can lie with its neck directed upwardly. When placed on its service side, the container has the lowest portion of its mouth at about the same elevation as the side of the body opposite the service side. The body also has a tail end opposite the junction of the body and neck. The container is uprightly standable on the tail end. The tial end of the body makes an obtuse angle with respect to its service side. Thus, any disturbance of the center of gravity caused by the canting of the neck is mitigated when the container stands on its tail end.
