A VALVE FOR URINE DRAINAGE APPLICATIONS

摘要

A valve for urine drainage applications has a valve housing (1) for attachment to a urine receptacle and a valve member (8) rotatable within the valve housing between an open position, in which liquid can flow from the receptacle along an angled path from the inlet (4) to the outlet (6) from the valve, and a closed position cutting off the liquid flow. The valve member (8) can be rotated about an axis substantially normal to the direction of liquid outflow from the valve and a manually operable tab or handle (10) is provided for rotating the valve member in the housing and is arranged to point in the direction of the outflow from the valve when the valve member (8) is in the open position.
