  • Patent number: 5009649
    Abstract: A male incontinence device comprises a condom (16) which fits over the end of a penis (17) and is secured by a band (11) having overlapping ends with H&L fasteners. When the condom is filled with a quantity of urine, it can be removed and emptied. Alternatively, the distal end of the condom has a valve (12, 13) thereat for manual emptying of the condom when it is in place. The valve may comprise a tubular housing (12) fitted into an end of the condom and a plug (3) which can be removably inserted into the housing. A brief-type undergarment (32) has a pouch 33 for supporting the condom when filled with urine (37). In lieu of a separate housing, the end of the condom may be thickened and formed into a tube (41) so that a plug (43) can be inserted into the tube. Alternatively, the end of the condom can be fitted with a ball-obturator valve (47, 49, 50) which can be opened to empty the condom by squeezing it from outside to distort the valve seat and thus open the seal formed by the ball obturator.
