Description

Dispositif de stimulation des parties génitales ou érogènes d'une personne  Device for stimulating the genital or erogenous parts of a person
Domaine technique Technical area
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de stimulation des parties génitales ou érogènes d'une personne, ainsi qu'une méthode de stimulation mettant en œuvre un tel dispositif. Etat de la technique The present invention relates to a device for stimulating the genitals or erogenous parts of a person, and a stimulation method implementing such a device. State of the art
Un grand nombre d'appareils ou de dispositifs de stimulation ou de massage des parties génitales ou érogènes d'un homme ou d'une femme existe à l'heure actuelle. Certains de ces dispositifs, vendus dans le commerce sous l'appellation « godemichet », se présentent sous la forme de prothèses phalliques reproduisant l'aspect conventionnel d'un sexe masculin. Dans certaines versions, ces godemichets sont également équipés d'une alimentation électrique de manière à produire des vibrations qui améliorent la stimulation. Il existe également d'autres dispositifs de stimulation, tels que les boules de geisha ou les canards vibrants. A large number of devices or devices for stimulating or massaging the genitals or erogenous parts of a man or a woman exist at present. Some of these devices, sold in the trade under the name "dildo", are in the form of phallic prostheses reproducing the conventional appearance of a male. In some versions, these dildos are also equipped with a power supply so as to produce vibrations that enhance the stimulation. There are also other stimulating devices, such as geisha balls or vibrating ducks.
Dans ce type de dispositifs, la personne a besoin de ses mains ou d'une tierce personne pour pouvoir utiliser le dispositif. Elle ne peut donc pas les utiliser pour d'autres activités.  In this type of device, the person needs his hands or a third person to use the device. She can not use them for other activities.
De manière à pallier cet inconvénient, les dispositifs de stimulation mentionnés précédemment peuvent être fixés sur des supports sur lesquels vient s'asseoir l'utilisateur. En opérant un mouvement de va-et-vient, généralement dans le sens vertical, il peut ainsi, tout en ayant l'usage de ses mains, stimuler ses parties génitales ou érogènes. Une solution connue, décrite notamment dans la demande de brevet américaine US 2007/0106110, consiste par exemple à fixer un godemichet sur le pourtour externe d'un ballon sauteur. Toutefois, dans cette solution, la personne assise sur le ballon doit successivement s'éloigner et se rapprocher de la surface externe du ballon si elle veut obtenir une stimulation efficace. Elle a donc besoin de ses mains pour faire appui sur le ballon. Par ailleurs, cette méthode de stimulation présente un risque pour l'utilisateur étant donné que, lors de l'exécution de ces mouvements de va-et-vient, le godemichet peut ne plus être aligné avec l'anus ou le vagin de l'utilisateur. En s'enfonçant dans la peau de l'utilisateur, il peut donc le blesser gravement. In order to overcome this drawback, the aforementioned stimulation devices can be fixed on supports on which the user sits. By operating a back and forth movement, generally in the vertical direction, he can thus, while having the use of his hands, stimulate his genitals or erogenous parts. A known solution, described in particular in the US 2007/0106110 US patent application, for example consists of attaching a dildo on the outer periphery of a jumping balloon. However, in this solution, the person sitting on the ball must successively move away and approach the outer surface of the balloon if she wants to get an effective stimulation. She needs her hands to support the ball. In addition, this method of stimulation presents a risk for the user since, when performing these movements back and forth, the dildo may no longer be aligned with the anus or the vagina of the user. By sinking into the skin of the user, he can therefore seriously hurt him.
Divulgation de l'invention L'objet de la présente invention est donc de proposer un dispositif de stimulation ne présentant pas les inconvénients de la solution exposée ci- dessus. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is therefore to propose a stimulation device that does not have the drawbacks of the solution described above.
A cet effet, conformément à l'invention, il est proposé un dispositif de stimulation selon la revendication 1.  For this purpose, according to the invention, there is provided a stimulation device according to claim 1.
D'autres variantes de réalisation de la présente invention sont décrites dans les revendications dépendantes 2 à 18.  Other embodiments of the present invention are described in dependent claims 2 to 18.
Un autre objet de la présente invention concerne également une méthode de stimulation des parties génitales ou érogènes d'une personne selon la revendication 19.  Another subject of the present invention also relates to a method for stimulating the genitals or erogenous parts of a person according to claim 19.
Ainsi configurés, le dispositif et la méthode de stimulation de la présente invention permet à une personne d'être stimulée tout en restant assise sur une balle d'exercice ou d'amusement et tout en ayant les mains libres.  Thus configured, the device and method of stimulation of the present invention allows a person to be stimulated while sitting on an exercise ball or fun and while having hands free.

Description détaillée d'un mode d'exécution de l'invention Detailed description of an embodiment of the invention
En référence à la figure 1 , il est représenté un dispositif de stimulation conforme à l'invention. Ce dispositif de stimulation 10 est formé tout d'abord d'une balle 1 gonflable et déformable, du type « ballon-sauteur », dans laquelle un espace intérieur Eint est séparé de l'espace extérieur Eext entourant la balle 1 par une membrane élastique constituant la balle 1 , cet espace intérieur Eint étant rempli d'un fluide, et de préférence d'un gaz. La membrane sera avantageusement formée en un matériau thermoplastique. La balle 1 sera également configurée pour supporter le poids d'un homme moyen sans éclater. Ainsi, la balle 1 pourra supporter un poids allant jusqu'à 1.5 kN, voire selon le cas, jusqu'à 5 kN, sans risque d'éclatement. Sous l'effet du poids de la personne assise sur la balle et de la pression additionnelle exercée par cette même personne lorsque la balle rebondit sur le sol ou lorsque la personne utilise intentionnellement les muscles de ses jambes pour presser la balle contre le sol, la balle se déforme. Elle passe ainsi d'une position de repos, dans laquelle aucune pression n'est exercée sur elle par la personne, la personne n'étant pas assise sur la balle, à une position déformée, dans laquelle une pression est exercée sur elle par la personne, la personne étant assise sur la balle et exerçant éventuellement une pression additionnelle sur elle. Dans sa position de repos, représentée sur la figure 1 , la balle 1 possède une forme sensiblement sphérique et, dans sa position déformée, représentée sur la figure 2, la balle 1 n'est plus sensiblement sphérique. Elle pourra notamment posséder une forme sensiblement ovoïde ou patatoïde dans laquelle la distance séparant un point disposé à la surface de la balle du centre de gravité de la balle est variable selon le point considéré. Ainsi, dans la situation représentée sur la figure 2, on constate que la balle 1 s'est rétrécie selon un axe sensiblement vertical et s'est allongée selon un axe sensiblement horizontal. Referring to Figure 1, there is shown a stimulation device according to the invention. This stimulation device 10 is formed firstly of an inflatable and deformable bullet 1 of the "jumper-ball" type, in which an interior space E int is separated from the outer space E ext surrounding the ball 1 by a elastic membrane constituting the ball 1, this inner space E int being filled with a fluid, and preferably a gas. The membrane will advantageously be formed of a thermoplastic material. Ball 1 will also be configured to support the weight of an average man without bursting. Thus, the ball 1 can support a weight of up to 1.5 kN, or even as the case may be, up to 5 kN, without risk of bursting. Due to the weight of the person seated on the ball and the additional pressure exerted by that person when the ball bounces off the ground or when the person intentionally uses the muscles of his or her legs to press the ball against the ground, the ball is deformed. It thus passes from a rest position, in which no pressure is exerted on it by the person, the person not sitting on the ball, to a deformed position, in which pressure is exerted on it by the person, the person sitting on the ball and possibly exerting additional pressure on it. In its rest position, shown in Figure 1, the ball 1 has a shape substantially spherical and, in its deformed position, shown in Figure 2, the ball 1 is no longer substantially spherical. It may in particular have a substantially ovoid or patatoïde shape in which the distance between a point disposed on the surface of the ball of the center of gravity of the ball is variable depending on the point. Thus, in the situation shown in FIG. 2, it can be seen that the bale 1 has narrowed along a substantially vertical axis and has elongated along a substantially horizontal axis.
Comme expliqué de manière plus détaillée dans les paragraphes qui suivent, l'invention tire parti de ce passage d'une position à une autre lors de la déformation de la balle pour créer un mouvement relatif entre un élément de stimulation disposé au départ au moins partiellement à l'intérieur de la balle et le centre de gravité de la balle. Ainsi, dans le cas où la personne assise sur la balle reste constamment en contact avec la paroi externe de la balle, un mouvement relatif de même amplitude et de même direction se crée entre l'élément de stimulation et la personne. De cette façon, il est possible de produire un mouvement de va-et-vient de l'élément de stimulation à l'intérieur du vagin ou de l'anus de la personne si celle-ci est positionnée sur la balle de telle manière que son vagin ou son anus soit aligné avec la direction du déplacement relatif de l'élément de stimulation.  As explained in more detail in the following paragraphs, the invention takes advantage of this passage from one position to another during the deformation of the bale to create a relative movement between a stimulation element initially disposed at least partially inside the ball and the center of gravity of the ball. Thus, in the case where the person sitting on the ball is constantly in contact with the outer wall of the ball, a relative movement of the same amplitude and the same direction is created between the stimulating element and the person. In this way, it is possible to move the stimulation element back and forth within the vagina or anus of the person if it is positioned on the ball in such a way that his vagina or anus is aligned with the direction of the relative displacement of the stimulating element.
Dans la configuration particulière représentée sur les figures 1 et 2, cet élément de stimulation consiste en une première partie 2 formant une prothèse phallique, ladite prothèse phallique 2 étant fixée à une extrémité 3a d'une tige droite 3 définissant une seconde partie dudit élément de stimulation, l'autre extrémité 3b de la tige 3 étant hermétiquement fixée à la paroi interne Si de la balle 3 de telle sorte que la tige 3 est en appui au moins indirect sur le sol ou sur la surface supportant la balle 1 lors de l'utilisation normale du dispositif de stimulation 10. En particulier, dans une configuration possible de l'invention, l'extrémité 3b pourra être collée à la paroi Si. Dans une autre configuration possible de l'invention, la membrane de la balle 1 pourra être pincée entre deux éléments disposés à l'extrémité 3b de la tige 3, lesdits éléments étant vissés ensemble. Dans une autre configuration de l'invention (non représentée), la tige 3 pourra également ne pas être droite et/ou posséder une ou plusieurs extrémités supplémentaires fixées hermétiquement à la paroi interne Si et/ou à une ou plusieurs prothèses phalliques additionnelles. Ces prothèses phalliques additionnelles auront avantageusement des directions de déplacement relatif différentes de celle de la prothèse phallique 2 représentée sur les figures 1 et 2 de manière à permettre à plusieurs personnes de se stimuler simultanément avec le dispositif de stimulation 10. Dans une configuration avantageuse de l'invention, la tige 3 sera alignée avec le centre de gravité de la balle 1 dans sa position de repos. La prothèse phallique 2 sera avantageusement fabriquée en matière plastique, mais pourra également être fabriquée en caoutchouc, en métal, en verre, en bois, en liège ou en argile. De manière à créer un mouvement relatif rectiligne entre la balle 1 et la prothèse phallique 2, la tige 3 doit être guidée en translation lors du passage de la position de repos à la position déformée de la balle. Ce guidage s'opère dans la configuration représentée au moyen d'une ouverture inférieure 6 à travers laquelle coulisse la tige 3, ladite ouverture inférieure 6 étant formée dans une paroi d'extrémité inférieure 4b d'un réceptacle 4 sensiblement cylindrique disposé dans l'espace intérieur Eint de manière à contenir au moins partiellement la prothèse phallique 2. L'extrémité supérieure 4a du réceptacle 4 est quant à elle hermétiquement fixée à la paroi interne Si et possède une ouverture supérieure 5 permettant le passage de la prothèse phallique lorsqu'elle effectue son mouvement relatif par rapport à la balle 1 . Une ouverture correspondante sera également prévue dans la membrane constituant la balle 1 , dans le prolongement de l'ouverture 5, de manière à ce qu'au moins une partie de la prothèse phallique 2 dépasse de la paroi externe Se de la balle 1 dans la position déformée de la balle 1 . Une solution technique envisageable pour relier hermétiquement le réceptacle 4 à la balle 1 consisterait notamment à coller l'extrémité 4a du réceptacle 4 à la paroi Si de la balle 1 ou à pincer la membrane de la balle 1 entre deux éléments disposés à l'extrémité 4a, lesdits éléments étant vissés ensemble. Par ailleurs, un élément d'étanchéité 7, du type bague d'étanchéité radiale par exemple, est disposé entre la tige 3 et les parois latérales du réceptacle 4 de manière à éviter un transfert de fluide entre une chambre pressurisée 8a de l'espace intérieur Eint de la balle 1 et une cavité interne 8b du réceptacle 4 qui s'étend entre les extrémités 4a et 4b du réceptacle 4 et qui est en communication fluidique avec l'espace extérieur Eext à travers l'ouverture 5. La chambre pressurisée 8a pourra notamment être remplie d'un fluide, en particulier un gaz, dont la pression sera supérieure à 1 bar, et de préférence sensiblement égale à 1 ,2 bar. Dans une configuration préférée de l'invention, l'élément d'étanché'ité 7 sera un joint à lèvre ou joint SPI. Dans la configuration représentée, cet élément d'étanchéité 7 est solidaire de la tige 3. Toutefois, dans une autre configuration possible de l'invention, cet élément d'étanchéité 7 pourra être rendu solidaire du réceptacle 4, en particulier au niveau de son extrémité 4b. Cet élément d'étanchéité 7 associé à la liaison hermétique de l'extrémité 3b de la tige 3 et de l'extrémité 4a du réceptacle 4 à la paroi interne Si de la balle 1 évitera que des transferts de fluide s'opèrent entre l'espace intérieur Ejnt et l'espace extérieur Eext, permettant ainsi à la balle 1 de conserver sa forme sensiblement sphérique dans sa position de repos sans que l'utilisateur ait besoin de regonfler la balle 1 . Un tel regonflage sera néanmoins envisageable. A cet effet, la balle 1 sera avantageusement équipée d'une valve de remplissage sur son pourtour. In the particular configuration shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, this stimulation element consists of a first part 2 forming a phallic prosthesis, said phallic prosthesis 2 being fixed to an end 3a of a straight rod 3 defining a second part of said element of stimulation, the other end 3b of the rod 3 being hermetically fixed to the inner wall Si of the ball 3 so that the rod 3 bears at least indirectly on the ground or on the surface supporting the ball 1 when the ball In particular, in a possible configuration of the invention, the end 3b may be glued to the wall Si. In another possible configuration of the invention, the membrane of the ball 1 may being clamped between two elements arranged at the end 3b of the rod 3, said elements being screwed together. In another embodiment of the invention (not shown), the rod 3 may also not be straight and / or have one or more additional ends hermetically fixed to the inner wall Si and / or to one or more additional phallic prostheses. These additional phallic prostheses will advantageously have different directions of relative displacement from that of the phallic prosthesis 2 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 so as to allow several persons to stimulate simultaneously with the stimulation device 10. In an advantageous configuration of the invention, the rod 3 will be aligned with the center of gravity of the ball 1 in its rest position. The phallic prosthesis 2 will advantageously be made of plastic, but may also be made of rubber, metal, glass, wood, cork or clay. In order to create a rectilinear relative movement between the ball 1 and the phallic prosthesis 2, the rod 3 must be guided in translation during the transition from the rest position to the deformed position of the ball. This guidance is effected in the configuration represented by means of a lower opening 6 through which the rod 3 slides, said lower opening 6 being formed in a lower end wall 4b of a substantially cylindrical receptacle 4 disposed in the interior space E in t so as to contain at least partially the phallic prosthesis 2. The upper end 4a of the receptacle 4 is hermetically attached to the inner wall Si and has an upper opening 5 allowing passage of the phallic prosthesis when it performs its relative movement with respect to the ball 1. A corresponding opening will also be provided in the membrane constituting the ball 1, in the extension of the opening 5, so that at least a portion of the phallic prosthesis 2 protrudes from the outer wall Se of the ball 1 in the deformed position of the ball 1. A possible technical solution for sealing the receptacle 4 to the ball 1 would include sticking the end 4a of the receptacle 4 to the wall Si of the ball 1 or pinching the membrane of the ball 1 between two elements arranged at the end 4a, said elements being screwed together. Furthermore, a sealing element 7, of the radial sealing ring type, for example, is disposed between the rod 3 and the side walls of the receptacle 4 so as to prevent fluid transfer between a pressurized chamber 8a of the space internal E int of the ball 1 and an inner cavity 8b of the receptacle 4 which extends between the ends 4a and 4b of the receptacle 4 and which is in fluid communication with the outside space E ex t through the opening 5. The pressurized chamber 8a may in particular be filled with a fluid, in particular a gas, whose pressure will be greater than 1 bar, and preferably substantially equal to 1, 2 bar. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the sealed element ITE 7 is a lip seal or gasket SPI. In the configuration shown, this sealing element 7 is integral with the rod 3. However, in another possible configuration of the invention, this sealing element 7 can be made integral with the receptacle 4, in particular at its level. end 4b. This sealing element 7 associated with the hermetic connection of the end 3b of the rod 3 and the end 4a of the receptacle 4 to the inner wall Si of the ball 1 will prevent fluid transfer between the interior space Ej n t and the outside space E ex t , thus allowing the ball 1 to keep its substantially spherical shape in its rest position without the user having to inflate the ball 1. Such reinflation will nevertheless be possible. For this purpose, the ball 1 will advantageously be equipped with a filling valve on its periphery.
Ainsi configuré, le dispositif de stimulation 10 permet de faire passer progressivement la prothèse phallique 2 d'une position rétractée telle que représentée sur la figure 1 , dans laquelle la majeure partie de la prothèse phallique 2 se trouve à l'intérieur de la balle 1 , à une position saillante telle que représentée sur la figure 2, dans laquelle la majeure partie de la prothèse phallique 2 se trouve à l'extérieur de la balle 1 . Par ailleurs, en choisissant correctement certains paramètres relatifs à la balle 1 , notamment son diamètre au repos, et/ou à la prothèse phallique 2, la tige 3 et/ou le réceptacle 4, notamment leur longueur, il sera envisageable de modifier un rapport Rv, que ce soit dans la position rétractée ou dans la position saillante de la prothèse phallique 2, le rapport Rv étant défini par la formule :  Thus configured, the stimulation device 10 makes it possible to progressively pass the phallic prosthesis 2 from a retracted position as represented in FIG. 1, in which the major part of the phallic prosthesis 2 is inside the bullet 1 at a protruding position as shown in Figure 2, in which the major part of the phallic prosthesis 2 is outside the ball 1. Moreover, by correctly choosing certain parameters relating to the ball 1, in particular its diameter at rest, and / or the phallic prosthesis 2, the rod 3 and / or the receptacle 4, in particular their length, it will be possible to modify a ratio Rv, whether in the retracted position or in the projecting position of the phallic prosthesis 2, the ratio Rv being defined by the formula:
Rv = (Volume de la première partie 2 de l'élément de stimulation positionnée dans l'espace extérieur Eext) / (Volume total de ladite première partie 2). Ainsi, dans la configuration représentée sur les figures 1 et 2, le rapport Rv passe d'une valeur nulle dans la position rétractée de la prothèse phallique 2 à une valeur égale à 1 dans la position saillante de la prothèse phallique 2. Il est clair que d'autres valeurs de Rv pourront être envisagées. En particulier, le rapport Rv pourra être compris entre 0 et 0.5 dans la position rétractée de la prothèse phallique 2 et compris entre 0.5 et 1 dans la position saillante de la prothèse phallique 2. Toutefois, il est essentiel pour obtenir l'effet de stimulation désiré que le rapport Rv augmente lorsque la balle 1 passe de sa position de repos à sa position déformée. Rv = (Volume of the first part 2 of the stimulation element positioned in the outer space E ex t) / (Total volume of said first part 2). Thus, in the configuration shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the ratio Rv goes from a zero value in the retracted position of the phallic prosthesis 2 to a value equal to 1 in the projecting position of the phallic prosthesis 2. It is clear that other values of Rv could be considered. In particular, the ratio Rv may be between 0 and 0.5 in the retracted position of the phallic prosthesis 2 and between 0.5 and 1 in the protruding position of the phallic prosthesis 2. However, it is essential to obtain the stimulation effect. desired that the ratio Rv increases when the ball 1 passes from its rest position to its deformed position.
Dans une autre configuration possible de l'invention, représentée sur la figure 3, l'élément de stimulation comprend un tube 13 à la place de la tige 3, ledit tube 13 possédant une extrémité inférieure 13b hermétiquement fixée à la paroi interne Si de la balle 1 et une extrémité supérieure 13a fixée à la prothèse phallique 2. Le tube 13 sera avantageusement aligné avec le centre de gravité de la balle 1 dans la position de repos de la balle 1 . Par ailleurs, le réceptacle 4 possédera une ouverture inférieure 6 plus large que dans la configuration précédente de manière à permettre le passage du tube 3.  In another possible configuration of the invention, shown in FIG. 3, the stimulation element comprises a tube 13 in place of the rod 3, said tube 13 having a lower end 13b hermetically fixed to the inner wall Si of the ball 1 and an upper end 13a attached to the phallic prosthesis 2. The tube 13 will be advantageously aligned with the center of gravity of the ball 1 in the rest position of the ball 1. Furthermore, the receptacle 4 will have a lower opening 6 wider than in the previous configuration so as to allow the passage of the tube 3.
Dans une autre configuration possible de l'invention, représentée sur la figure 4, la deuxième partie 23 de l'élément de stimulation est venue de matière avec la première partie 2 et forme avec celle-ci une prothèse phallique de grande taille. Cette deuxième partie 23 pourra être fixée à la paroi interne Si de la balle 1 à son extrémité inférieure, comme représenté sur la figure 4, être libre ou être fixée à un autre support. Dans ces deux derniers cas, l'élément de stimulation sera indépendant de la balle 1. Le réceptacle 4 est par ailleurs configuré pour loger entièrement la deuxième partie 23. De ce fait, l'extrémité inférieure 4b du réceptacle 4 est positionnée au niveau de la paroi interne Si de la balle 1 et est hermétiquement fixée à celle-ci. Ainsi, dans cette configuration, le réceptacle 4 s'appuie à ses deux extrémités 4a et 4b sur la paroi interne Si de la balle 1. De ce fait, contrairement aux deux configurations précédentes, il n'est pas envisageable d'utiliser dans cette configuration un réceptacle rigide ou non pliable car cela empêcherait la déformation de la balle 1 sous l'effet du poids de l'utilisateur. Il est donc nécessaire d'utiliser un réceptacle 4 qui puisse se déformer au moins dans une direction axiale D alignée avec les extrémités 4a et 4b du réceptacle 4 de façon à ce que la distance entre lesdites extrémités 4a, 4b diminue lorsque la balle 1 passe de sa position de repos à sa position déformée. La direction axiale D susmentionnée sera de préférence parallèle à la direction de déplacement D' de l'élément de stimulation 2, 23 par rapport au centre de gravité de la balle 1 lorsque la balle 1 passe de sa position de repos à sa position déformée. Dans la configuration représentée sur la figure 4, cette déformation s'obtient en équipant le réceptacle 4 de parois latérales 14 aptes à se replier sur elles-mêmes à la manière d'un soufflet. Les parois latérales 14 seront avantageusement équipées de plis latéraux disposés dans des plans perpendiculaires à la direction axiale D susmentionnée. Dans cette configuration particulière et dans le cas où la prothèse phallique formée par les première et seconde parties de l'élément de stimulation est indépendante de la balle 1 , l'utilisateur devra simplement positionner la balle 1 de manière à ce que la prothèse phallique soit sensiblement alignée avec la direction axiale D et soit totalement introduit à l'intérieur de la cavité interne 8b formée à l'intérieur du réceptacle 4, ladite cavité interne 8b définissant une chambre non pressurisée, ou à pression atmosphérique, qui est hermétiquement séparée de la chambre pressurisée 8a définie par la paroi interne Si de la balle 1 et par les parois latérales 14 du réceptacle 4. In another possible configuration of the invention, shown in FIG. 4, the second part 23 of the stimulation element is integral with the first part 2 and forms with it a large phallic prosthesis. This second portion 23 may be attached to the inner wall Si of the ball 1 at its lower end, as shown in Figure 4, be free or be attached to another support. In the latter two cases, the stimulation element will be independent of the ball 1. The receptacle 4 is also configured to fully accommodate the second part 23. As a result, the lower end 4b of the receptacle 4 is positioned at the level of the inner wall Si of the ball 1 and is hermetically attached thereto. Thus, in this configuration, the receptacle 4 rests at its two ends 4a and 4b on the inner wall Si of the bale 1. As a result, unlike the two previous configurations, it is not conceivable to use in this embodiment configuration a rigid or non-collapsible receptacle as this would prevent the deformation of the ball 1 under the effect of the weight of the user. It is therefore necessary to use a receptacle 4 which can deform at least in an axial direction D aligned with the ends 4a and 4b of the receptacle 4 so that the distance between said ends 4a, 4b decreases when the ball 1 passes from its rest position to its deformed position. The aforementioned axial direction D will preferably be parallel to the direction of displacement D 'of the stimulation element 2, 23 with respect to the center of gravity of the ball 1 when the ball 1 moves from its rest position to its deformed position. In the configuration shown in Figure 4, this deformation is obtained by equipping the receptacle 4 of side walls 14 adapted to fold on themselves in the manner of a bellows. The side walls 14 will advantageously be equipped with lateral folds arranged in planes perpendicular to the aforementioned axial direction D. In this particular configuration and in the case where the phallic prosthesis formed by the first and second parts of the stimulation element is independent of the ball 1, the user will simply position the ball 1 so that the phallic prosthesis is substantially aligned with the axial direction D and is fully introduced within the internal cavity 8b formed inside the receptacle 4, said internal cavity 8b defining a non-pressurized chamber, or at atmospheric pressure, which is hermetically separated from the pressurized chamber 8a defined by the inner wall Si of the ball 1 and by the side walls 14 of the receptacle 4.
Dans une autre configuration possible de l'invention, le réceptacle pliable du dispositif de stimulation représentée sur la figure 4 sera remplacé par un réceptacle dont les parois latérales seront formées d'une ou plusieurs membranes élastiques solidaires entre elles, ledit réceptacle se présentant sous la forme d'un ballon sensiblement ovoïde dans la position de repos de la balle 1 et sous la forme d'un ballon sensiblement sphérique dans la position déformée de la balle 1 . Ce ballon sera creux et possédera une ouverture supérieure 5 à son extrémité supérieure 4a et une ouverture inférieure 6 à son extrémité inférieure 4b, les dites extrémités supérieure et inférieure étant hermétiquement fixées à la paroi interne Si de la balle 1. Par ailleurs, pour éviter tout affaissement du ballon sous l'effet de la pression exercée par la chambre pressurisée 8a, les parois latérales du ballon seront avantageusement rigidifiées par divers techniques. Une solution envisageable consistera notamment à adapter l'épaisseur de la ou des membranes élastiques formant les parois latérales à la pression exercée par la chambre pressurisée 8a. Une autre solution envisageable, telle que représentée sur la figure 5, consistera à fixer de manière solidaire ladite ou lesdites parois latérales 24 du ballon 4 à une armature flexible 25 constituée de boudins gonflables, la pression à l'intérieur des boudins étant comprise, de préférence, entre 2 et 3 bars. Une autre solution envisageable consistera également à former les parois latérales du ballon au moyen d'au moins deux membranes élastiques, respectivement une membrane externe et une membrane interne, ladite membrane interne étant concentrique et espacée de ladite membrane externe par de multiples fils de connexion, lesdites membranes interne et externe définissant entre elles un espace fermé rempli d'un fluide sous pression, la pression du fluide étant supérieure à 1 bar. Un tel réceptacle présentera notamment le même principe de construction que la sphère décrite dans la demande de brevet NZ 270 146. In another possible configuration of the invention, the foldable receptacle of the stimulation device shown in FIG. 4 will be replaced by a receptacle whose side walls will be formed of one or more elastic membranes integral with one another, said receptacle being in the form of form of a substantially ovoid balloon in the rest position of the ball 1 and in the form of a substantially spherical balloon in the deformed position of the ball 1. This balloon will be hollow and will have an upper opening 5 at its upper end 4a and a lower opening 6 at its lower end 4b, said upper and lower ends being hermetically fixed to the inner wall Si of the ball 1. Moreover, to avoid any collapse of the balloon under the effect of the pressure exerted by the pressurized chamber 8a, the side walls of the balloon will be advantageously stiffened by various techniques. One possible solution will include adapting the thickness of the elastic membrane (s) forming the side walls to the pressure exerted by the pressurized chamber 8a. Another possible solution, as shown in FIG. 5, will be to fasten said one or more side walls 24 of the balloon 4 to a flexible armature 25 consisting of inflatable tubes, the pressure inside the tubes being comprised of preferably between 2 and 3 bar. Another possible solution will also be to form the side walls of the balloon by means of at least two elastic membranes, respectively an outer membrane and an inner membrane, said inner membrane being concentric and spaced from said outer membrane by multiple connection son, said inner and outer membranes defining between them a closed space filled with a fluid under pressure, the pressure of the fluid being greater than 1 bar. Such a receptacle will have in particular the same principle of construction as the sphere described in the patent application NZ 270 146.
Il est évident que les configurations représentées ne doivent pas être limitatives pour l'invention. En particulier, il sera envisageable d'utiliser un autre type d'élément de stimulation du moment que cet élément de stimulation possède au moins une première partie qui soit configurée pour pouvoir pénétrer à l'intérieur de l'anus ou du vagin de la personne assise sur la balle.  It is obvious that the configurations shown should not be limiting for the invention. In particular, it will be conceivable to use another type of stimulation element as long as this stimulation element has at least a first portion that is configured to be able to penetrate inside the anus or vagina of the person. sitting on the ball.
