01
CAR URINATING KIT
Field of the Invention.
[0001] The embodiment described herein relate to urinal devices.
More
particularly, embodiments herein relate to a Car Urinating Kit, which is
collapsible,
having a holder with an handle, and a separate elongated flexible means, which
is
easily attachable, and detachable to the holder, in order to collect and
temporary store
the waste or urine from a male or female of any age, while sitting in a
vehicle if there
is no convenient place available to relief oneself.
Background of the Invention.
[0002] Getting delayed on a highway in heavy traffic for various
reasons is
becoming common, or going on a long distance driving and wanting to urinate or
pee
can be painful, and at times even when get out of traffic and find a washroom,
one still
have to wait their turn in line to relief or urinate, the present inventor had
personal
experience and sought to fix this problem by designing a unisex device that
can be
used by all ages and gender while sitting in their vehicle, then the elongated
means
with the waste can be closed with a built in pull string for temporary
storage, and the
waste be dispose of at any convenient place, and said flexible means is re-
usable
after a rinse. In extreme situations # 2 is possible with this device, and in
such
situation the flexible means only must be discarded.
Description of the related Prior Arts.
[0003] This application is an improvement of the present inventor's two
earlier
inventions, entitled;
Vehicle Urinating Unisex Kit, Canadian application number 3,023,576 and
Portable Unisex Urinating Traveling Kit, Canadian application number
2,985,567.
Other patent numbers are as follows; Canadian patent number 2785034, entitled
Portable Urinating Device for Woman.
Canadian patent number 2751219, entitled U just Go.
Canadian patent number 2423149, entitled Portable Urinal.
CA 3046024 2019-06-12

02
Canadian patent number 2232953, Hand Held Urinal, and Canadian patent number
2071763.
Many of the foregoing patent numbers of urinal devices may have good usage,
however, some are too bulky, some are not portable, and some designed for a
specific
gender, and others may have singular usage only, after which the apparatus has
to
be through away in the garbage, which ends up in the land fill.
[0004] There is therefore a need for a new and improved car urinating kit, to
be kept
in a vehicle at all times for emergency urinal relief, and in extreme cases
the device
can also be used for other things including # 2, said device can easily be
used by any
gender, and all ages, and is collapsible, changeable, portable and reusable,
and can
easily fit within any glove compartment of a vehicle.
