Adhesive connecting rings for an ostomy device
First Claim
1. An ostomy device comprising a faceplate, adapted for use with a collection pouch, a plurality of stacked adhesive connecting ports on the surface of the faceplate in angularly offset relation, each of said parts comprising a substantially annular base layer adhesively coated on both surfaces and a cover layer situated on one of said adhesively coated base layer surfaces, said cover layer comprising an annular portion which substantially covers said base layer and a radially extending gripping portion defined by a first straight edge extending substantially radially outwardly from said annular portion and a second substantially circumfrentially extending edge of a substantially greater length than said first edge which gradually tapers from said first edge until it is substantially coincident with the peripheral edge of said annular portion, the top one of said parts having a cover layer with a gripping portion which substantially obscures the gripping portions of the underlying parts but is angularly offset therefrom to facilitate removal thereof, each of said parts being adapted to removably mount a collection pouch to said faceplate when the cover layer which forms a portion thereof is removed.

Abstract
Pouch faceplate connecting rings have adhesive annular base layers with cover layers. Each cover layer has an annular portion covering the base layer and a radially extending gripping portion with a radially extending edge and a circumferentially extending tapering edge. The gripping portions are annularly offset to facilitate removal of the cover layers.
