The cuff member comprises a membrane provided with a through-going aperture, and a first collar provided around the aperture, the first collar extending axially away from a first surface of the membrane, and a second collar provided around the aperture, the second collar extending axially away from a second surface of the membrane. The membrane and the first and the second collar are configured to allow elastic expansion of the aperture to fittingly engage with the penis. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A male urinary incontinence device comprising: a top end portion, and a pocket connected to the top end portion, where the pocket is formed by an intermediate portion extending between the top end portion and a bottom end portion, and the pocket is configured to contain at least a part of a penis; and a cuff member coupled to the top end portion, where the cuff member comprises a membrane with an aperture adapted to receive the at least the part of the penis, a first collar provided around the aperture, with the first collar extending axially away from a first surface of the membrane in a distal direction inside of and into the pocket, and a second collar provided around the aperture, with the second collar extending axially away from a second surface of the membrane in a proximal direction outside of and away from the pocket; wherein the membrane and the first collar and the second collar are configured to allow elastic expansion of the aperture to fittingly engage with the at least the part of the penis; wherein the second collar and the first collar together define a tubular structure that is substantially perpendicular to the membrane, with the tubular structure having a substantially equal diameter over an entire length of the tubular structure; wherein the membrane is provided with radially extending reinforcing members extending from the first collar and directed radially outwards. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein a length of the first collar is longer than a length of the second collar. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the first collar is provided with axially extending ribs. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the cuff member comprises a plurality of radially extending wings on an outside surface of the first collar that extend from the first collar to attach to the membrane. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the cuff member comprises a plurality of radially extending wings on an outside surface of the second collar that extend from the second collar to attach to the membrane. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the first collar and the second collar and the membrane are made from the same material. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the cuff member comprises a thermoplastic elastomer. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the pocket is a closed pocket comprising a proximal wall and a distal wall sealed together along the periphery and at the bottom end portion. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the bottom end portion comprises an outlet. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the device comprises absorbent material. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the membrane provides an entirety of a proximal wall of the device, with the aperture formed in the proximal wall of the device and the first collar extends away from the proximal wall in the distal direction and the second collar extends away from the proximal wall opposite of the first collar and in the proximal direction. ### Claim 12 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the first collar and the second collar are elastic and adapted to stretch to fit around differently sized penises. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein a distal wall of the device is formed by the intermediate portion extending between the top end portion and the bottom end portion, the device further comprising a slit formed in the distal wall, with the slit is adapted to be opened to allow movement of the penis through the slit and out of the pocket. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The device according to claim 1, wherein the bottom end portion comprises an outlet configured as a single use outlet having a seal to be broken before use. ### Claim 15 A male urinary incontinence device comprising: a top end portion, and a pocket connected to the top end portion, where the pocket is formed by an intermediate portion extending between the top end portion and a bottom end portion, and the pocket is configured to contain at least a part of a penis; and a cuff member coupled to the top end portion, where the cuff member comprises a membrane with an aperture adapted to receive the at least the part of the penis, a first collar provided around the aperture, with the first collar extending axially away from a first surface of the membrane in a distal direction inside of and into the pocket, and a second collar provided around the aperture, with the second collar extending axially away from a second surface of the membrane in a proximal direction outside of and away from the pocket; wherein the membrane and the first collar and the second collar are configured to allow elastic expansion of the aperture to fittingly engage with the at least the part of the penis; wherein the second collar and the first collar together define a tubular structure that is substantially perpendicular to the membrane, with the tubular structure having a substantially equal diameter over an entire length of the tubular structure; wherein the cuff member comprises a plurality of radially extending wings on an outside surface of the first collar that extend from the first collar to attach to the membrane. ### Claim 16 A male urinary incontinence device comprising: a top end portion, and a pocket connected to the top end portion, where the pocket is formed by an intermediate portion extending between the top end portion and a bottom end portion, and the pocket is configured to contain at least a part of a penis; and a cuff member coupled to the top end portion, where the cuff member comprises a membrane with an aperture adapted to receive the at least the part of the penis, a first collar provided around the aperture, with the first collar extending axially away from a first surface of the membrane in a distal direction inside of and into the pocket, and a second collar provided around the aperture, with the second collar extending axially away from a second surface of the membrane in a proximal direction outside of and away from the pocket; wherein the membrane and the first collar and the second collar are configured to allow elastic expansion of the aperture to fittingly engage with the at least the part of the penis; wherein the second collar and the first collar together define a tubular structure that is substantially perpendicular to the membrane, with the tubular structure having a substantially equal diameter over an entire length of the tubular structure; wherein the cuff member comprises a plurality of radially extending wings on an outside surface of the second collar that extend from the second collar to attach to the membrane.
