Title:
OSTOMY BAG WITH COUPLING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001049225
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
An ostomy bag (8) with a wall (10) of a flexible material and a first coupling member (14) for detachably coupling the ostomy bag with an implant (9), for example an implant surrounding the stoma, and designed with a circumferential groove (15). The first coupling member (14) is a spring ring (1) composed of a spring wire (2) having end parts (3) extending a distance past each other. Along the opening (13) of the ostomy bag, an edge reinforcement (14) is made by joining of at least a part of the spring ring (1) and an area of the wall (10) of the ostomy bag, and on each end part (3) of the spring wire is a handle (4) for opening the spring ring (1) on overcoming the spring power in said spring ring so that the edge reinforcement (14) can pass over the circumferential groove (15) of the implant (9) at mounting and decoupling of the ostomy bag (8). In a simple manner and without causing the stomi-operated patient any incomvenience, the ostomy bag (8) can be coupled on for example an implant (9) to form a tightfitting connection between the implant (9) and the ostomy bag (8), and can be quickly and easily decoupled the implant in a similarly simple manner when the ostomy bag is to be changed.
