A fluid reservoir (118) for a penile implant device that includes a body portion (126) having a sleeve (134) from which a tube (124) may extend. The body portion includes support structure (138) positioned at an interior surface of the body portion near an orifice of the reservoir, which orifice leads to a fluid passage (136) of the tube. The support structure may comprise a plurality of protrusions (140) that are arranged around the orifice (127) and that extend from a base portion (142) of the body portion. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a fluid reservoir for a penile implant device, which includes positioning a tube in a mold and injection molding a reservoir body onto the tube. More particularly, the method may include providing a mold, positioning a tube in the mold, injecting material into the mold, curing the material, and opening the mold to remove the reservoir body and tube assembly.
L'invention concerne un réservoir de fluides (118) destiné à un dispositif d'implant pénien qui comprend une partie corps (126) comportant une gaine (134) de laquelle peut s'étendre un tuyau (124). La partie corps comprend une structure de support (138) disposée à la surface intérieure de la partie corps près de l'orifice du réservoir, ledit orifice menant vers un canal pour fluides (136) du tuyau. La structure de support peut comprendre plusieurs protubérances (140) ménagées autour de l'orifice (127) et faisant saillie de la partie de base (142) de la partie corps. L'invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'un réservoir de fluides destiné à un dispositif d'implant pénien qui consiste à former un tuyau, disposer un tuyau dans un moule, injecter un matériau dans le moule, faire durcir le matériau et ouvrir le matériau pour en retirer le corps de réservoir et l'ensemble de tuyaux.
