This invention relates to an automatic or semi-automatic bladder relief
and hydration system, specifically designed to increase the overall
sanitation and comfort for users that may require a means to dispose of
their urine and hydrate in the absence of other sanitary facilities or
sources of potable fluids due to situations such as aircraft pilots,
hazmat/biohazard workers and incontinent individuals. For user comfort
this invention incorporates an inflatable urine collection means that may
be deflated after use. In one embodiment a dual chambered back pack
serves to store a user's urine and in a separate sanitary chamber provide
the user with a potable fluid and/or liquid food source. To prevent user
error and failure to recharge the power unit this invention incorporates
a disposable battery that is integrated into a disposable urine storage
bag. This invention also utilizes a disposable urine storage bag with an
isolated cleaning fluid chamber with a directional valve system and
directional pump system that automatically rinses and sanitizes the pump,
hoses, collection means and the user with a cleaning fluid stored in the
cleaning fluid chamber of the disposable urine storage bag. The
disposable urine storage bag also contains absorbent polymer crystals
capable of absorbing the urine as it is deposited in the bag during use.
