Abstract
Abstract Some help implements for urinating require the female to assume an inconvenient posture others are inconvenient for domestic use because their washing and sterilisation are troublesome. The present help implement is made of thick paper or like in a compact size, so that the implement can be manufactured at a low cost and therefore readily disposed of. It has a gourd shaped body (1) with, at a lower oval portion (5), an inner peripheral wall (6) gently curved back so as to define a passage opening at the outlet end of which a cylindrical connector (8) is connected.
