Urinary waste system

A system for collecting and removing urinary waste from a user, the system comprising:

• a urinary waste receptacle defined by a concave dome-shaped shell and an opposite concave wall, the shell and the wall defining an interior volume;
• a deformable and compressible perimeter seal at a juncture of the shell and the wall;
• an aperture in the wall defining a urinary waste inlet fluidly connected to the interior volume, the aperture having a dimension no greater than 50% of a maximum dimension of the concave wall, with a compressible dam-like structure at least partially around the aperture;
• and
• a flow diverter comprising a tubular structure in the interior volume dividing the interior volume into two conduits extending from the urinary waste inlet to a waste outlet defined by an aperture in the shell.

A method of collecting and removing urinary waste from a user, the method comprising:

• aligning externally a urinary waste receptacle having a urinary waste inlet with a urethral opening of the user, the urinary waste receptacle defined by a concave dome-shaped shell and an opposite concave wall, the shell and wall defining an interior volume and having a deformable and compressible perimeter seal therearound, with the waste inlet formed by an aperture in the wall fluidly connected to the interior volume, the aperture having a deformable dam-like structure at least partially therearound, with the urinary waste receptacle further having a flow diverter having a tubular structure in the interior volume to divide the interior volume into two conduits extending from the urinary waste inlet to a waste outlet defined by an aperture in the shell to facilitate flow of the urinary waste through the urinary waste receptacle;
• equipping a harness at least partially around the user, wherein the harness is attached to the urinary waste receptacle and configured to position the waste receptacle external to and against a labial region of the user;
• and
• maintaining an alignment of the urinary waste receptacle for at least a portion of urination by the user to collect urine into the urinary waste receptacle.
