Aid for use by women in discharge of bodily wastes

Year	Description
1993	Invention patented by Gregory L. Mojena on December 13th, 1993. Abstract: An aid for use by women in discharge of bodily wastes while standing erect. The aid includes tongs having legs engageable with seams at the open end of a flexible waste receiving bag. The legs are pivoted together at their inner ends and each leg has fixed thereto a handle with the leg and handle of each tong part being on the same side of the pivot whereby movement of the handles towards each other moves the legs apart and vice versa, the handles being urged apart by a spring. The size of the bag opening can be adjusted by the tongs to minimize accidents. One of the legs carries an outwardly open channel for engaging a leg opening of panties to move the panties clear of the relevant region as the bag is opened for use. The invention includes structure for the mounting of either a urine bag or a defecation bag.
