  • a stimulation effect that is not only better but also of a different type can be achieved compared to the prior art.
  • This is achieved according to the invention in that the sleeve-shaped body is alternately stretched and shortened in the direction of its length with the first end section of its wall, which is the inner end section, and thus with its inner first end.
  • the resulting alternating change in length of the inner first end section of the wall of the sleeve-shaped body creates a special stimulating effect on the section of the body part that is sensitive to stimulation and which is in engagement with the first end section of the wall of the sleeve-shaped body and is inserted through the opening into the sleeve-shaped body either due to a relative movement of the first end portion of the wall of the sleeve-shaped body with respect to the adjacent portion of the body part on this a stimulating frictional effect is generated or the first end portion of the wall of the sleeve-shaped body during its alternating movement in both directions the adjacent portion of the body part or at least whose skin takes with it, which also leads to a special stimulation effect.
  • the loading device acts pneumatically, so to speak, and can thus be implemented in a particularly simple and at the same time effective manner.

  • the drive device can be designed to move the second section of the wall of the chamber approximately in the longitudinal direction of the sleeve-shaped body.

  • the chamber preferably has a closable opening leading into the environment.
  • This opening can expediently be partially or completely closed by a finger of the user, if necessary, in order to manually control the pressure in the chamber in this way. If the opening is completely closed, the pressure conditions in the first chamber remain unchanged. If, on the other hand, the opening is partially closed or opened, this results in a slight pressure equalization with the surroundings, with the result that the pressure is correspondingly lower in the first chamber.
  • the opening can contain a check valve which closes when there is negative pressure in the chamber and opens when there is overpressure in the chamber; manual control with the aid of a finger of the user is thus only possible in the case of overpressure, while in the case of underpressure an undesired pressure equalization with the surroundings is avoided.

Since the diaphragm 26 is fastened with its outer end to the wall section 24, the reciprocal movement of the connecting rod 34 changes the shape of the diaphragm 26 and is the movement stroke of the diaphragm 26 in its center, where the connecting rod 34 is fastened with its adjacent end 34b, the largest and corresponds to the movement stroke of the connecting rod 34.

  • first end position initially creates an overpressure in the first chamber 28, which exerts a compressive force on the first end 14aa of the wall 14 of the sleeve-shaped body 12, which is still stretched at this point in time, which now ensures that the first end section 14a of the wall 14 of the sleeve-shaped body 12 in its (according to Fig. 5 lower) in Fig. 5 first end position shown in solid lines returns.
  • the alternating change in length of the first end section 14a of the wall 14 of the sleeve-shaped body 12 caused by the reciprocal movement of the connecting rod 34 produces a special stimulating effect on the section of a section not in engagement with the first end section 14a of the wall 14 of the sleeve-shaped body 12 in the figures shown, introduced through the opening 8 in the sleeve-shaped body 12, for a stimulation-sensitive body part, either due to a relative movement of the first end portion 14a of the wall 14 of the sleeve-shaped body 12 with respect to the adjacent portion of said body part is generated on this a stimulating frictional effect or the first end section 14a of the wall 14 of the sleeve-shaped body 12 during its alternating movement in both directions entrains the adjacent section of said body part or at least its skin, which also leads to a special stimulation effect ect leads.
