The shape of the storage tube 2 is preferably cylindrical or prismatic for ease of handling and manufacturing. Since the storage tube 2 has a bottom portion, the dirt in the storage tube 2 is prevented from leaking out.
Moreover, it is preferable that the periphery of the bottom portion is formed in a conical or pyramidal shape. Such narrowing toward the tip is preferable because the amount of lubricant such as petrolatum to be described later can be reduced.
In the following description, the case where the storage tube 2 has a cylindrical shape and the bottom portion is tapered into a conical shape will be described.

The transverse direction (width direction) dimension of the storage tube 2 is preferably 10 to 30 mm in diameter, more preferably 12 to 25 mm, and still more preferably 14 to 18 mm in the case of a cylindrical shape. The length of the storage tube 2 is preferably 80-120 mm, more preferably 90-110 mm, still more preferably 95-110 mm. The internal volume is preferably 5-15 mL, more preferably 8-12 mL. If the dimensions of the storage tube 2 are within this range, a catheter, which will be described later, can be efficiently taken out and stored.

A cap 3 is used to seal and seal the entrance of the storage tube 2 . If the storage tube 2 can be sealed, the dirt adhering to the catheter 4 is prevented from leaking out from the entrance of the storage tube 2 after the catheter 4 is put back into the storage tube 2 after the operation. Furthermore, the transmission of infectious diseases caused by contamination is prevented.
It should be noted that the term "sealing" refers to the space between the storage tube 2 and the cap 3, and the channel of the catheter 4 communicates with the outside.

The material of the cap 3 is preferably elastic synthetic resin, synthetic rubber, or the like, because of its excellent sealing performance.

The cap 3 can seal and seal the entrance of the storage tube 2 . Therefore, it is preferable to have a structure that can be inserted into the opening, or a helical structure such as a bolt and nut. As an example of a structure that can be inserted, there is a structure in which bellows-shaped unevenness is formed at the tip. In addition, it is preferable that a collar portion having a diameter larger than that of the storage tube 2 is provided on the opposite side of the bellows-shaped unevenness so that the cap 3 can be easily pulled out or fitted. Further, it is preferable that a step portion having the same diameter as that of the storage tube 2 is formed between the bellows-shaped unevenness and the flange, and the bellows-shaped unevenness, the stepped portion, and the flange form a three-step structure. . With this configuration, the entrance of the storage tube 2 is fitted with a bellows-shaped unevenness, and the cut portion is brought into contact with the entrance of the storage tube 2, thereby effectively sealing and sealing. can be done.

With such a configuration, the cap can be slid to move the cap to a desired position on the catheter 4, which is convenient.

Preferably, the catheter is provided with a scale or index relative to the tip. The presence of a scale or index facilitates the procedure by sliding and positioning the cap 3 to the length of the catheter that needs to be inserted through the anus into the rectum. When the scale is scaled, it is preferable that the scale is engraved at intervals of 10 mm from the tip of the catheter 4 up to about 70 mm, and in the case of a standard, it is engraved at positions of 30 mm and 50 mm from the tip of the catheter 4 . In the case of small animals, it is often inserted into the rectum from the anus to a position 30 mm from the tip of the catheter 4, and in the case of large animals, to a position of 50 mm from the tip of the catheter 4.

Preferably, the inside of the bottom of the storage tube 2 is filled with a lubricant. With this configuration, the lubricant is applied to the tip of the catheter 4 simply by inserting the catheter 4 into the storage tube 2, so that the catheter can be inserted without damaging the anus. Examples of the lubricant include vaseline, ozonated oil, glycerin and the like.
