Abstract
Abstract This disclosure relates to a portable urinal for infants, both male and female, and includes a relatively hollow body defining a chamber in which is housed liquid-absorbing material, the body being of a generally triangularly shaped outline for male infants and of a generally shallow U-shaped outline for female infants, the male infant urinal including a rear wall having a relatively small opening for receiving an infant''s penis while the female urinal includes a relatively elongated opening, and in each case the urinal is constructed from relatively chemically inert pliable synthetic polymeric material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
122 words
A disposable portable urinal adapted for infant use comprising a relatively hollow body of liquid-impermeable material defining a chamber which includes a rear wall adapted to be disposed adjacent the genital area of an infant and a front wall remote and in spaced relationship to said rear wall, means defining an opening in said rear wall, said opening defining means being an integral tubular portion of said rear wall projecting toward but terminating short of said front wall, liquid-absorbing material in said chamber but not in said tubular portion for preventing contact between the genital area and the liquid-absorbing material, and wall means of said body being so relatively disposed as to define urine traps in any normal position of an infant.
