Abstract: A multi-piece fluid transfer receptacle is used in a male incontinence device. The receptacle includes an outer shell having a first open end adapted for receiving the penis of a user and a second end defining a fluid discharge port. The second end extends beyond the first end a distance sufficient to cover a head of the penis, whereby urine is transferred forwardly from the penis and outwardly from the receptacle through the discharge port. A detachable fluid-management insert is received within the first open end and includes an elongated tongue spaced apart from an interior surface of the outer shell. The tongue forms a backflow barrier between the penis and the outer shell to shield the penis from urine flowing backward towards the user and away from the discharge port.

Abstract: A multi-layer moisture management fabric composite includes a three-dimensional fabric spacer. The spacer forms a first layer of the fabric composite. The spacer has a first facing adapted for residing nearest the skin, a second facing, and an intermediate spacer yarn interconnecting the first and second facings. A plurality of overlying moisture-absorbent layers reside outside of the spacer, and are adapted for receiving and dispersing moisture entering the fabric composite and passing through the first layer. A liquid impermeable jacket resides outside of the absorbent layers and defines an outermost layer of the fabric composite adapted for trapping liquid moisture within the absorbent layers.

Abstract: A flexible bag wrap is adapted for use in an incontinence management system. The bag wrap includes a flexible base adapted for wrapping around a body part of a user. The base includes a three-dimensional fabric spacer. The fabric spacer has an inside facing for residing nearest the skin of the user, an outside facing opposite the inside facing, and an intermediate spacer yarn interconnecting the inside and outside facings. A collection bag is carried by the base adjacent the outside facing of the fabric spacer, and is adapted for collecting urine excreted by the user.

Abstract: A collection bag is adapted for communicating with a male incontinence device designed to cover a portion of the penis. The collection bag has first and second opposing flexible side walls joined together and forming a fluid container for holding urine. A cylindrical bag neck is formed with the first and second side walls, and defines a mouth for receiving urine passed through the incontinence device and into the fluid container. The bag neck comprises a rigid valve cap. The valve cap includes an internal check valve for controlling urine flow outwardly from and into the incontinence device, and multiple circumferentially-spaced indexing elements. The indexing elements cooperate to position the valve cap relative to the incontinence device, such that the check valve is locatable in a single operative orientation.

Abstract: An invertible multi-layer moisture management fabric pad has a top layer, a bottom layer, and a plurality of overlying moisture-absorbent intermediate layers located between the top and bottom layers. The bottom layer is joined to the top layer along a perimeter of the fabric pad. The moisture-absorbent intermediate layers are adapted for receiving and dispersing moisture entering the fabric pad. The pad perimeter defines an access opening for accessing an inside of the fabric pad. A pull strap is located inside the fabric pad, and is adapted for being grasped by a user reaching through the access opening formed with the perimeter. The pull strap is pulled back through the access opening to invert the fabric pad for laundering.

Abstract: A moisture management incontinence pad is adapted for placement within an undergarment worn by a user. The fabric composite includes a plurality of overlying absorbent layers having respective first and second opposing end edges and first and second opposing side edges. The adsorbent layers are substantially unattached to one another along at least one of respective first and second side edges and first and second end edges to promote circulation between the layers during laundering. A liquid impermeable jacket resides adjacent an outside major surface of the fabric composite, and covers the opposing end edges and opposing side edges of the absorbent layers. The jacket is adapted for trapping moisture within the composite, and forms a moisture barrier between the composite and the undergarment.

Abstract: An undergarment is adapted for use in combination with a male incontinence device. The incontinence device includes an external fluid-transfer element for being positioned on a user inside of the undergarment. The fluid-transfer element has a transition portion adapted for extending outside of the undergarment to a fluid collection site. The undergarment includes a waistline, and a front and rear joined to the waistline and defining respective first and second leg openings. An enlarged, or expandable, crotch panel is located in the front, and includes a fabric gathering adapted for accommodating positioning of the fluid-transfer element on the user. A transition hole is formed at a base of the enlarged crotch panel, and is adapted for receiving the transition portion of the fluid-transfer element extending from the inside of the undergarment to the outside of the undergarment.
