Abstract: A device for detecting the presence of urine at the genital region of an individual and removing and storing the urine. The device includes an external urine collecting vessel which is supported at the genital region to contain the urine within the vessel. Liquid sensors are contained within the vessel for detecting the presence of urine and automatically activating a pump to draw the urine through a tubing to a temporary storage chamber. A liquid impermeable liner is place within the collecting vessel for improved hygiene and for directing the urine away from the individual.

Abstract: A ducted fan including a funnel-shaped duct positioned upstream of the impeller and connected to a base, an outer cowling concentrically positioned downstream and attached to said duct through a series of ribs, an inner cowling positioned inside the outer cowling and surrounding the impeller and a circular grill attached to the discharge end of the inner cowling. The grill including a center hub and a series of arcuate-shaped ribs extending outwardly from the hub and having a constant curvature of less diameter than the outside radius of the grill whereby the maximum lateral spacing between the ribs is at a radius inboard from the outside radius of the grill.
