ABSTRACT:
A device for collecting urine or other organic body fluids includes a flexible bag (1) made of liquid-impervious sheet material, a urine-receiving member (2) which receives and conducts urine into the bag, and a device which prevents urine from leaving the bag through the urine-receiving members. The urine-receiving member (2) is attached to a mounting flange (5) which is welded sealingly to the bag (1). The flange is provided with a bottom which lies at least partially loosely against the bag wall. The flange bottom includes openings through which urine can flow and that part of the bag wall located beneath the bottom is provided with at least one cut so as to form at least one flap. This flap allows urine to flow into the bag (1) through the openings in the flange bottom, but functions to close these openings when urine tends to flow in the reverse direction.
