| (54) | A closing insert for a handheld urinal for avoiding odour leaks |
| (57) The invention relates to a closing insert (301) to be used with a funnel (201) of
a urinal bottle (101). The funnel comprises an opening (208) which enables passage
of urine to the urinal bottle. However, the opening of the funnel has the disadvantage
that urine odour are able to escape via the funnel's opening. After use of the urinal,
the closing insert is positioned so that it closes the funnel's opening. The closing
insert has a funnel shape-line shape and is dimensioned to be inserted into the funnel.
Since the closing insert has a receiving opening similar to the receiving opening
of the funnel the closing insert does not change the use of the funnel and the urinal
bottle, except that the user has to operate the closing insert to open it before use.
