  • Publication number: 20070260205
    Abstract: A disposable urine control device for females during urination when in a crouched position. The control device is provided preferably folded flat and preferably packaged in a stack, each including an elongated flexible folded panel formed of disposable material and having side margins preferably narrowing toward a central portion from enlarged end portions thereof. A perimeter sealing bead extends upwardly from, and substantially continuously around the panel perimeter to provide stiffness and sealing against the labia majora of a female to contain urine within the perimeter sealing bead during urination. A flexible elongated conduit is connected at one end thereof in alignment with a urine drainage aperture formed into a central portion of the panel. When the panel and conduit are unfolded for use from a substantially flat folded orientation of the panel and a folded orientation of the conduit, urine is directed through the conduit into a toilet bowl.

  • Publication number: 20070113349
    Abstract: A mattress pad positionable atop a rectangular mattress which better accommodates diverse weights and sizes of the human anatomy for enhanced comfort. The mattress pad includes a flexible bottom sheet having a size and shape substantially similar to that of a top surface of the mattress. A flexible fabric top sheet is connected to the bottom sheet by peripheral stitching along common perimeter side, head and foot margins. A plurality of generally side-by-side body supporting chambers are each defined by peripheral stitching and spaced lines of continuous stitching which interconnect the top and bottom sheets. Each chamber is filled with an open or closed cell urethane foam material. Preselected nominal thicknesses of each of the chambers provides the comfort and accommodation to each portion of the human anatomy.

  • Publication number: 20070101505
    Abstract: A mattress pad positionable atop a rectangular mattress which better accommodates diverse weights and sizes of the human anatomy for enhanced comfort. The mattress pad includes a flexible air tight bottom sheet having a size and shape substantially similar to that of a top surface of the mattress. A flexible air tight top sheet is connected to the bottom sheet by peripheral heat or ultrasonic weld sealing along common perimeter side, head and foot margins. A plurality of generally side-by-side body supporting chambers are each defined by peripheral sealing lines and spaced lines of continuous sealing which interconnect the top and bottom sheets. Each air chamber is individually and selectively fillable with pressurized air and thus capable of localized pressurization within the chamber. Preselected nominal thicknesses of each of the chambers provides the comfort and accommodation to each portion of the human anatomy.
