Abstract
A wearer wears a urine receptacle in which a urine absorbent material 3 is housed in a substantially rectangular, non-breathable, liquid-impermeable outer sheet having a U-shaped cross-section, and the surface of the urine absorbent material is covered with a hard-breathable, liquid permeable top sheet. Urine is discharged from a urine drainage port formed on the bottom surface of the outer sheet to a sealed urine tank by a vacuum pump through urine drainage tubes.
