To provide an outlet valve system for collection bag which system, when a valve is open and urine flows out through a discharge opening, guides the flow so as to leave the vertical plane to prevent the flow of urine from coming into contact with footwear.
The valve system comprises a base member which is attached to the collection bag and a movable member which is fixed to the base member so as to seal the base member; the base member has an open conduct leading into the cavity of the collection bag and conducting liquid to the movable member. The movable member has a discharge tube which is rotatably movable with respect to the base member and which is rotated out of the plane defined by the outer surface of the collection bag. The movable member has at least one open position and at least one fixed closed position where the discharge tube is pointing upwards. In the open position the discharge tube is rotated to a position situated between more than 90 and less than 180 from the upright vertical position and here the discharge tube is fixed.
