Abstract

The present invention includes a human waste collection device system, comprising of a tubular element and a flexile element. The tubular element has a first end defining a first opening and a second end defining a second opening, as well as being constructed of a rigid outside layer and a soft inside layer, which also provide a soft edge at the first opening. A flexile element including an open end and a sealed end. The flexile element is positioned within the tubular element such that the open end is positioned about the first opening and folded over the soft edge, while the sealed end extends from the second opening for collection of bodily human waste. Systems and methods are disclosed.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A portable human waste collection system comprising:
 a tubular element having a first end defining a first opening and a second end defining a second opening, the tubular element is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside; and   a closed flexile element with one opening,   wherein the flexile element is positioned within the tubular element such that the open end is positioned about the first opening and the sealed end extends from the second opening for the collection of human waste.   
     
     
         2 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the tubular element includes a funnel. 
     
     
         3 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the first opening includes a larger diameter than the second opening. 
     
     
         4 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the first opening includes a rolled or folded edge, forming a circumferential soft lip about the first opening. 
     
     
         5 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 4  wherein the lip is rolled or folded from the inside out such that the soft inside layer of the tubular element is disposed about the first opening to form the circumferential edge about the first opening. 
     
     
         6 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 4  wherein the lip is configured to resist slippage of the flexile element during use. 
     
     
         7 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 4  wherein the lip is configured to resist tearing of the flexile element during use. 
     
     
         8 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the flexile element includes a bag. 
     
     
         9 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the flexile element configured to capture and store human waste. 
     
     
         10 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the flexile element is made from an eco-friendly material. 
     
     
         11 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the tubular element is made from an eco-friendly material. 
     
     
         12 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 1  wherein the tubular element and the flexile element form a sanitary device for the collection of human waste. 
     
     
         13 . A portable human waste collection system comprising:
 a funnel having a first end defining a first opening and a second end defining a second opening, the funnel including a rigid outside layer and a soft inside layer; and   a bag including an open end and a sealed end,   wherein the bag is positioned within the funnel such that the open end is positioned about the first opening and the sealed end extends from the second opening for collection of human waste.   
     
     
         14 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 13  wherein the first end includes a rolled lip forming a circumferential edge about the first opening. 
     
     
         15 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 14  wherein the lip is rolled from the in-side out such that the soft inside layer of the funnel is disposed about the first opening to form the circumferential edge about the first opening. 
     
     
         16 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 14  wherein the lip is configured to resist slippage of the bag during use. 
     
     
         17 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 14  wherein the lip is configured to resist tearing of the flexile element during use. 
     
     
         18 . A portable human waste collection system according to  claim 13  wherein the bag is configured to capture and store human waste. 
     
     
         19 . A method of using a portable human waste collection system comprising:
 providing a system having a tubular element and a flexile element, the tubular element includes a first end defining a first opening and a second end defining a second opening, the tubular element includes a rigid outside layer and a soft inside layer and the first end includes a rolled lip forming a circumferential edge about the first opening, the flexile element includes an open end and a sealed end;   opening the open end of the flexile element;   passing the closed end of the flexile element through the tubular element such that the sealed end extends from the second opening;   folding the open end around the lip;   filling the bag with human waste through the open end; and   removing the flexile element from the tubular element and closing the open end of the flexile element when the act of urination or defecation is complete.   
     
     
         20 . A method of using a portable human waste collection system wherein the portable human waste collection system is made from an eco-friendly material and disposable anywhere.
