ABSTRACT:
A valve for a urine collection bag has a base plate with a valve housing within which a valve member is displaceable. The valve member is hollow and has an aperture that aligns with an aperture in the base plate and bag when the valve member is in its lower position. The valve is opened by squeezing a finger plate on the valve member down towards a lower finger grip on the base plate. In the open position, the valve member can engage a coupling which slots between the arms of a fork projection on the base plate. The valve is closed by squeezing the finger plate up towards an upper finger grip on the base plate.
