A flat-folded expandable urinary aid for use by females which allows them to urinate from a standing position has an elongate flat-folded tubular portion terminating at an outlet end and a flat-folded funnel-shaped portion extending outwardly and rearwardly from the opposite end of the tubular portion terminating at an inlet end. The tubular portion and funnel-shaped portions are formed by a pair of opposed planar side walls hinged together from the inlet end to the outlet end along their top and bottom longitudinal edges. The side walls of the funnel-shaped portion are scored or creased along a pair of lines converging angularly from the juncture of the funnel-shaped portion with the tubular portion to intersect at a point approximately one-half the length of the funnel-shaped portion. The side walls of the tubular portion and funnel-shaped portion are creased or scored intermediate its longitudinal edges along a line extending longitudinally from the outlet end to the intersection of the converging score lines. Upon compression of the top and bottom longitudinal edges toward each other, the opposed side walls expand laterally outward from a flat-folded configuration to draw the funnel-shaped portion into a substantially elliptical shaped opening at the inlet end and the tubular portion into a generally diamond shaped configuration having a central opening extending the length of the tubular portion. The elliptical shaped opening at the inlet end is configured to surround the labia major of the user.

An elongate flat-folded expandable urinary aid for feminine use comprising; an elongate flat-folded tubular portion terminating at an outlet end, and a flat-folded funnel-shaped portion extending outwardly and rearwardly from the opposite end of said tubular portion terminating at an inlet end, said flat-folded tubular portion and said funnel-shaped portion defined by a pair of opposed planar side walls hinged together from said inlet end to said outlet end along their top and bottom longitudinal edges, each said planar side wall of said funnel-shaped portion being scored on its surface along a pair of lines converging angularly from the juncture of said funnel-shaped portion longitudinal edges with said tubular portion longitudinal edges to intersect at a point approximately one-half the length of said funnel-shaped portion, and each said planar side wall of said tubular portion and said funnel-shaped portion being creased or scored on its surface intermediate its longitudinal edges along a line extending longitudinally from said outlet end and terminating at the intersection of said converging score lines, whereby said opposed planar side walls expand laterally outward from a flat-folded configuration to define a central longitudinal opening in response to compression of the top and bottom longitudinal edges toward each other.
