ABSTRACT:
A urinary collector device for men including a urinary collector body formed into a bag shape and constructed of soft, flexible water-proof material, the urinary collector body having a first or upper portion formed into a penis receiving chamber which includes an opening for enabling a penis to be inserted therethrough into such chamber. The urinary collector body also includes a second opposite or lower portion which forms a urinary flow chamber which is separated from the penis receiving chamber by a water permeable membrane. The urinary flow chamber is packed with hydrophobic material having a plurality of passages therethrough and includes a urinary discharge outlet. The penis receiving opening further includes an annular sleeve therearound for cooperatively engaging and forming a sealed condition around a penis when inserted therein, the packed hydrophobic material in the urinary flow chamber maintaining the shape of the device even as a penis is inserted therein and when the device is worn under clothing. Urine discharge flows into the penis receiving chamber and thereafter passes through the water permeable membrane into the urinary flow chamber. Once in the urinary flow chamber, the flow of urine is buffered by passage through the hydrophobic material and is thereafter discharged from the urinary flow chamber through the urinary discharge outlet.
