Patent attributes
Flexible receptacles and flexible conduits for bodily fluids are disclosed. The receptacles and conduits provide comfortable, user-friendly unisex flexible bodily waste collection systems that improve the accuracy and convenience when collecting urine streams from female users. One bodily waste collection system may include a cup, a bowl, a tube, a pipe, a fitting, a valve, or any combination thereof. A flexible receptacle or conduit includes an open top defined by a flexible annular rim, a base, and flexible sidewalls extending between the top and base. The flexible receptacle is a urine collection cup having an annular rim. The rim is deformable to an elliptical shape when pressure is applied there against (for example, by squeezing), thereby allowing the rim to fit between the labia majora and minora of the user.
