Device for discharge and collection of intestinal gases
View Patent ↗The utility model relates to rectally installed devices for intestinal gases drainage. User comfort is improved due to the fact that the device for silent removal and collection of intestinal gases is made in the form of a hollow oblong housing with two collar projections, proximal and distal, on the outer surface of the oblong housing, between which there is a window connected in the flowing medium with the outlet; there is a stop at the outlet. The window may consist of several inlets located circumferentially between the collar protrusions; there are drainage grooves on the outer side of the distal collar protrusion.
1. A device for the removal and collection of intestinal gases by a user in the need thereof, the device comprising:
a hollow elongated housing;
a window on a side wall of the housing;
an outlet located at a proximal end of the housing, the outlet is configured to be connected with the window, wherein the proximal end is defined by being proximal relative to the outlet and a distal end is defined as being distal relative to the outlet;
a proximal collar protrusion and a distal collar protrusion, the proximal collar protrusion and the distal collar protrusion are vertically arranged on an outer surface of the housing;
a plurality of drainage grooves arranged on an outer side of the distal collar protrusion and configured to allow intestinal gases flow; and
a stopper configured at the outlet, the stopper is in a form of two plates located on opposite sides and being proximal to the outlet;
wherein the window is positioned between the proximal collar protrusion and the distal collar protrusion,
wherein the proximal collar protrusion and the distal collar protrusion are configured to be encompassed by sphincter muscles of the user, and
wherein the device is configured to allow intestinal gases to flow through the plurality of drainage grooves, the window, and the outlet.
2. The device according to claim 1 , wherein each collar protrusion is confined by two conical surfaces with adjacent bases, and the distal collar protrusion has oval bases in a cross-section.
3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the window consists of a plurality of inlet openings configured circumferentially between the collar protrusions.
4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein there is a silencer or a device for creating various sounds inside the housing.
5. The device according to claim 1 , further comprising a locking connection with a ring for attaching a tube for removal and/or collection of gases inside the housing.
