<p>A urine-collecting container-valve assembly (10,13) particularly intended for use when taking urine from the urinal bladder of a patient, particularly a bed-ridden patient. The assembly comprises a container (10), made of thin plastic material, having an inlet port which accommodates a non-return valve arrangement (13). The valve arrangement (13) is housed in a valve housing (15) having an inlet and an outlet. Arranged in the interior of the valve housing (15) is a perforated plate-like element (16) which extends transversely to the longitudinal axis of the valve housing in liquid-tight abutment with the walls of the housing (15). The housing (15) also has arranged therein a pressure-activated buoyant body (20) which is freely movable between the mutually opposing surfaces of the plate-like element (16) and the bottom wall of the valve housing (15). The invention is characterized by means (23) which co-act with the buoyant body (20) in a manner to guide the body (20) axially during its movement from one terminal position to another terminal position. </p> |
