Abstract

Abstract A device to facilitate putting an elastic envelope (1) on a part projecting from a human body, e.g. putting a urinal drop collector onto a penis, consists of a casing (4) with two flexible side walls (5, 6) connected to each other along at least two of their side edges (5a, 6a; 5b, 6b) and with at least one opening (8) between two other side edges of the walls. The envelope is at least partially enclosed between the walls (5, 6) and its portion provided with an opening (2) is removably attached to said opening (8). By pressing the mutually connected side edges towards each other the opening (8) is enlarged between the walls, the opening of the envelope also being enlarged. The casing (4) is substantially flat when it is not used, and the space between it and the envelope (1) is airtight, whereby, when the opening (8) between the walls is extended, the portion of the envelope situated inside the casing is enlarged so that the envelope can be put onto part of the human body.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 213 words
A device for facilitating the connection of a urinal drop collector to a penis comprising: (a) a normally flat tubular casing having inner and outer surfaces and being comprised of a pair of opposed, flexible, substantially identical, generally triangular walls, each of which has a pair of side edges juxtapositioned to the corresponding side edges of the other and flexibly connected thereto and having a relatively large open upper end portion and a relatively small open tubular lower end portion; and (b) an open-ended elastic tubular envelope removably connected to said casing and extending therethrough throughout the length thereof, said envelope having one end portion thereof stretched outwardly over and around the exterior of said lower end portion of said casing and having its opposite end portion stretched outwardly over and around said upper end portion of said casing, each in air-tight sealing relation and thereby sealing the area between said casing and said envelope in air-tight relation, whereby upon said pairs of side edges of said casing being pressed toward each other, said upper end portion of said casing will assume a conical shape and said envelope will expand and extend in close-fitting relation along the inner surface of said casing along a substantial portion of the entire length of said envelope.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 213 words
A device for facilitating the connection of a urinal drop collector to a penis comprising: (a) a normally flat tubular casing having inner and outer surfaces and being comprised of a pair of opposed, flexible, substantially identical, generally triangular walls, each of which has a pair of side edges juxtapositioned to the corresponding side edges of the other and flexibly connected thereto and having a relatively large open upper end portion and a relatively small open tubular lower end portion; and (b) an open-ended elastic tubular envelope removably connected to said casing and extending therethrough throughout the length thereof, said envelope having one end portion thereof stretched outwardly over and around the exterior of said lower end portion of said casing and having its opposite end portion stretched outwardly over and around said upper end portion of said casing, each in air-tight sealing relation and thereby sealing the area between said casing and said envelope in air-tight relation, whereby upon said pairs of side edges of said casing being pressed toward each other, said upper end portion of said casing will assume a conical shape and said envelope will expand and extend in close-fitting relation along the inner surface of said casing along a substantial portion of the entire length of said envelope.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 214 words
A device for facilitating the connection of an elastic tubular envelope to a part projecting from the human body comprising: (a) a normally flat tubular casing having inner and outer surfaces and being comprised of a pair of opposed, flexible, substantially identical, generally triangular walls, each of which has a pair of side edges juxtapositioned to the corresponding side edges of the other and flexibly connected thereto and having a relatively large open upper end portion and a relatively small closed lower end portion; and (b) an elastic tubular envelope removably connected to said casing and extending therethrough substantially throughout the length thereof, said envelope having one end portion thereof closed and interior of said lower end portion of said casing and having its opposite end portion open and stretched outwardly over and around said upper end portion of said casing in air-tight sealing relation and thereby sealing the area between said casing and said envelope in air-tight relation, whereby upon said pairs of side edges of said casing being pressed toward each other, said upper end portion of said casing will assume a conical shape and said envelope will expand and extend in close-fitting relation along the inner surface of said casing along a substantial portion of the entire length of said envelope.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 214 words
A device for facilitating the connection of an elastic tubular envelope to a part projecting from the human body comprising: (a) a normally flat tubular casing having inner and outer surfaces and being comprised of a pair of opposed, flexible, substantially identical, generally triangular walls, each of which has a pair of side edges juxtapositioned to the corresponding side edges of the other and flexibly connected thereto and having a relatively large open upper end portion and a relatively small closed lower end portion; and (b) an elastic tubular envelope removably connected to said casing and extending therethrough substantially throughout the length thereof, said envelope having one end portion thereof closed and interior of said lower end portion of said casing and having its opposite end portion open and stretched outwardly over and around said upper end portion of said casing in air-tight sealing relation and thereby sealing the area between said casing and said envelope in air-tight relation, whereby upon said pairs of side edges of said casing being pressed toward each other, said upper end portion of said casing will assume a conical shape and said envelope will expand and extend in close-fitting relation along the inner surface of said casing along a substantial portion of the entire length of said envelope.
