Invention:
The Weefly device is a reusable, cleanable urinary aid designed to allow individuals with female anatomy to urinate comfortably while sitting or standing in various environments, such as aircraft, spacecraft, automobiles, trains, and more. Weefly is designed with flexibility and hygiene in mind, featuring a secure docking mechanism that uses adhesives or a garment to maintain a watertight seal, ensuring the device stays in place during use. Ideal for extreme conditions and professions requiring long hours without access to restrooms, such as pilots, astronauts, and race car drivers, Weefly offers a hands-free, reliable alternative to diapers or internal catheters, enhancing comfort and health for its users.
Background:
The Weefly device addresses the challenge of urinating in environments where traditional methods are impractical, such as during long flights, space missions, or other extended activities in confined or extreme conditions. Currently, females often have to rely on less desirable solutions like diapers, internal catheters, or artificially limiting urine output by restricting hydration. These methods can lead to health issues, such as urinary tract infections, bladder muscle weakening, and dehydration-related complications. Weefly offers a significant improvement over these existing solutions by providing a reusable, cleanable external urinary device that allows for urination while standing, sitting, or engaging in various activities without the need for invasive or uncomfortable methods. Made from hygienic silicone material, it uses a secure docking mechanism to ensure a watertight seal and hands-free operation.
Applications:
- Urinary device for:
- Healthcare use for patients who need a non-invasive solution for urination due to medical conditions or mobility issues
- Outdoor Activities: For hikers, climbers, and adventurers in remote or extreme conditions
- Confined or extreme environments such as aviation, spacecraft, military field operations, or during travel
Advantages:
- Portable
- Designed with secure docking mechanism to stay in place during use
- Can be used sitting or standing
- Hands-free design
- Made from silicone or similar materials that are reusable, cleanable, and have antibacterial properties to support hygiene
- Reusable
- Supports better overall health
