Urine specimen capture and analysis device

1. A urine specimen capture device, comprising:

a capture bowl to capture a urine specimen, an opening at a bottom of the capture bowl to drain the urine specimen;

a mounting frame connected to the capture bowl to support the capture bowl within a toilet bowl;

an analytic device connected to the capture bowl to analyze a property of the urine specimen in the capture bowl; and

wherein the opening comprises a flush valve that opens upon actuation of a toilet flush mechanism.

2. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the flush valve is configured to selectively close and open to maintain the urine specimen at a predetermined volume in the capture bowl.

3. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the flush valve is operably connected to a user sensor configured to close the flush valve when the presence of a user on the toilet seat is detected and open the flush valve when the presence of a user on the toilet seat is not detected.

4. The capture device according to claim 3 , wherein the user sensor is a toilet seat load sensor.

5. The capture device according to claim 3 , wherein the user sensor is a user proximity sensor.

6. The capture device according to claim 1 , further comprising a flush water capture flange extending from the capture bowl and configured to capture flush water emitted from a toilet bowl rim during a flush cycle and divert the flush water to the capture bowl to thereby rinse the capture bowl of the urine specimen.

7. The capture device according to claim 6 , wherein the capture flange is flexible.

8. The capture device according to claim 6 , wherein the capture flange extends from the capture bowl a distance sufficient that an outer edge of the capture flange is, when inserted within a toilet bowl, capable of extending under one or more rim hole through which flush water is discharged from a toilet bowl rim, thereby capturing toilet flush water discharged from rim holes.

9. The capture device according to claim 6 , wherein the capture flange extends a distance sufficient that an outer edge of the capture flange, when inserted within a toilet bowl, is capable of abutting an inside surface of the toilet bowl, thereby capturing toilet flush water discharged from rim holes and flowing down an inside surface of the toilet bowl.

10. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting frame further includes a suction device.

11. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the analytic device comprises a spectrometer.

12. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the analytic device comprises a fluid level sensor.

13. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the analytic device comprises a spectrometer and a fluid level sensor and the spectrometer is actuated upon the fluid level reaching a designated level.

14. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the analytic device comprises a transmitter for wireless communication.

15. The capture device according to claim 1 , wherein the analytic device further comprises a generator that powers the analytic device, wherein the generator generates power from flushing water.
