ABSTRACT:
A male urinal device comprising a housing which includes a top wall portion, a bottom wall portion, and a plurality of side wall portions which define an interior urine-retention chamber. An entrance opening in a first side wall portion is positioned adjacent the top wall portion, the entrance opening being slightly angularly disposed with respect to the vertical axis of the housing to facilitate entry of an upwardly directed stream of urine therein, and to facilitate entry of the penis for urination without (or with only minimal) tipping of the urinal. The urinal includes a urine deflector formed by a portion of the top wall portion of the housing and positioned adjacent the entrance opening, the urine deflector being adapted for capturing the stream of urine and deflecting the stream downwardly and into the urine-retention chamber. Also disclosed is a urinal holder comprising a rigid container having an open upper end, a bottom wall section, and a plurality of side wall sections. An aperture in a first side wall section of the holder is adapted to receive a handle of a male urinal. The urinal holder includes a fastener for attaching the container to a support structure or surface, such as a bed, bed stand, table or wall.
