  • Publication number: 20230338127
    Abstract: A male urinary incontinence device comprising a top end portion, a bottom end portion and an intermediate portion for containing at least a part of a penis, the top end portion comprising an inlet through which the penis can be entered, the inlet being provided with a cuff member. The cuff member comprises a membrane provided with a through-going aperture, and a collar provided around the aperture, the collar extending axially away from a first surface of the membrane, and a second collar provided around the aperture, the second collar extending axially away from a second surface of the membrane. The membrane and the first and the second collar are configured to allow elastic expansion of the aperture to fittingly engage with the penis.

  • Patent number: 8231589
    Abstract: An irrigation system includes a control unit and a pump integrated with the control unit. The control unit includes an adjustment knob attached to a major surface of the control unit, a first conduit extending from a side of the control unit to a reservoir that is configured to contain a volume of irrigation liquid, and a second conduit extending from the side of the control unit to an anal probe that is inflatable for fixation of the anal probe within a user. The adjustment knob has a first setting that is selectable to inflate a cuff of the anal probe and a second setting that is selectable to allow the pump to pump gas into the reservoir and thereby transfer the irrigation liquid from the reservoir through the inflated anal probe.

  • Patent number: 7914505
    Abstract: The irrigation system comprises a reservoir (1) for irrigating liquid, a probe (3) for arrangement in a user, conduit means (6,7,10,11) for conducting the irrigating fluid from the reservoir to the probe, and a fixation member (5) for fixation of the probe in the user. Pumping means (9) are provided for pumping gas into the reservoir (1) to transfer the irrigating liquid from the reservoir to the probe (3). The fixation member includes an inflatable cuff (5), and the system includes a control unit (8) which may be set in at least a cuff inflating position and a liquid transferring position.

  • Publication number: 20110062716
    Abstract: An apparatus (1) for rotational motion about a rotational axis (14) of a first member (2) relative to a second member (3), the first member having an outer surface being rotational symmetric about the rotational axis, and the second member having a corresponding rotational symmetric cavity with an inner surface accommodating at least part of the first member with an interspace between the outer surface of the first member and the inner surface of the second member. A repulsive magnetic field (4) between the first and the second member prevents contact between the outer surface of the first member and the inner surface of the second member. This magnetic field is achieved by a plurality of permanent dipole magnets (6, 13) arranged in the first member and in the second member with identical polarity (7) directed towards the interspace between the first and the second member. By using a plurality of magnetic dipoles an arbitrary shape can be provided with a surface having only north or south poles of magnets.
