Abstract

Description
DESCRIPTION
A HYGIENIC APPARATUS
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention concerns with an hygienic apparatus used in order to prevent ladies to contact and get close to dirty toilets at home, at workplaces and at public lavatories, and allowing the ladies to urinate standing up.
THE KNOWN STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE
Today, some of the urination products used by women, while being soft, have a downwards direction, instead of having a forwards direction, which would make urination easier. As for some products, these have forwards direction, but have a short rear section, and these rear sections are hard. For these reasons, these products are problematic in terms of use.
While the urination apparatuses used today are told as being suitable for re- wash, actually these products are unsuitable for re-wash for hygienic reasons, due to their non-antibacterial properties and, the availability of bacterial growth in consequence of their contact with water.
The non-clean and non-antibacterial property of the raw materials of products addressed for ladies' use, despite the current importance of hygiene, also causes some diseases, and many products claiming the enabling of urination without getting close to toilets at public lavatories, are non-hygienic.
Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) are a versatile material group, which bring together the easy-processing and recycling properties of thermoplastic materials, and flexibility and elasticity, which are the main physical properties of thermoset rubbers.
In terms of structure, TPE's are defined as materials consisting of two phases, one having an elastomeric structure displaying rubber properties, while the other, having rigid structure, displaying thermoplastic properties. Elastomeric phase determines the material's properties similar to rubber materials, such as elasticity, softness, flexibility, permanent deformation and minimum usage temperature.
As for the properties Unique to thermoplastic materials, such as recycling, hardness/rigidity, workability and upper usage temperature, these are determined by the hard phase. Since the discovery of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPE-U), the first thermoplastic elastomer, the TPE material group and application areas, have made a significant progress.
Thermoplastic Elastomers may be categorized into two main groups, in terms of their production processes: TPE's with block copolymer structures and Elastomer/Thermoplastic mixtures. As for the block copolymers, produced through polymerization (Chemical synthesizing), these also are categorized into two groups, in terms of the physical structure of their rigid segments: amorphous (Styrene Block Copolymers, TPE-S) and semi-crystal (Polyurethanes, TPE-U, Co-polyester, TPE-E and Co-polyamides, TPE-A).
TPE's, which continue to develop even today, are among the polymers with the highest market growth rate.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention has been developed through taking into consideration the problems mentioned in the section "The Known State of the Technique", with the purpose to eliminate these problems.
The relevant invention concerns with an hygienic apparatus used in order to prevent ladies to contact and get close to dirty toilets at home, at workplaces and at public lavatories, and allowing the ladies to urinate standing up

The relevant invention may also be used during travels, for urine analyses, afterwards of surgeries, at malls, pubs, schools, hospitals, movie theatres, etc.
The relevant invention, can be washed again and again with its antibacterial property and nature, fruity smell, and it contains TPE raw-material, preventing it from generating any bacteria and germs despite making contact with water.
The relevant invention contains color additive, smell additive and antibacterial additive.
The relevant invention also may contain TPU raw material, alongside TPE raw material.
The special cord structure of the relevant invention prevents leakage, ensures full contact and provides fast flow.
