PURPOSE: A method of manufacturing a device is provided to have an elastomeric rim and a thin, flexible film reservoir attached to the rim and method of manufacturing a vaginal device. CONSTITUTION: A method of manufacturing a device having a first elastomeric portion(200)and a second elastomeric portion(204), the second elastomeric portion being formed into a non planar shape, i.e., a vaginal discharge collection device that is formed of an elastomeric rim(200) and a flexible film reservoir. The method includes the steps of loading a rim(200) into a carrier plate(16), laying film(204) over the rim, heat sealing the film to the rim, preheating the rim and film, drawing the film into a chamber by creating a vacuum to form the collector, and removing the collector from the carrier plate. |
