- the silicone material of the silicone sheath 14 is preferably a medical grade silicone. It preferably has a SHORE hardness A in the range of 20-60. It can also be provided that the silicone casing 14 itself has different sections with different silicone materials or has different wall thicknesses. For example, it is preferred that in a recipient partner toy that is used for insertion, a lower SHORE hardness tends to be used and a larger wall thickness, whereas in receiver partner teasers 3 that are intended solely for placement, for example in the area of the clitoris, a higher SHORE hardness and a smaller wall thickness are preferred.
- the receiver part 3 also has a vibratory drive 18 in the massage body 12 for displacing the massage body 12 into a vibration. Furthermore, a control unit 20 for controlling the vibration drive 18 is provided. The control unit 20 is connected via an electrical line 21 to the vibration drive 18 to send corresponding signals to the vibration drive 18. Furthermore, the receiver part 3 has a power source 22, which is formed in this embodiment as a rechargeable battery. In particular, the energy source is designed as a lithium-ion accumulator. The energy source 22 is connected to the charging points 16a, 16b, which serve to charge the energy source 22. Via an electrical line 23, the energy source 22 is connected to the vibration drive 18 and via an electrical line 24, the power source is connected to the control unit 20.
- the receiver partner 3 also has a sensor unit 26.
- the sensor unit 26 may include a plurality of sensors, such as a Hall sensor, a radio frequency radiation receiver of an RFID chip, a Bluetooth® receiver, an acceleration sensor, a temperature sensor, an infrared sensor, a gyroscope, a 3D Magnetic field sensor, a WiFi receiver, a near-field chip or the like.
- the control unit 20 is connected to the sensor unit 26 via a signal line 27.
- the sensor unit 26 is also optionally connected via an electrical line 28 to the power source 22.
- the sensor unit 26 is provided to detect the electromagnetic or magnetic waves 5 and to determine the distance D based on the detected waves 5.
- the sensor unit 26 then provides corresponding signals via the line 27 to a control unit 20 which controls the vibration drive 18 as a function of the distance D.
- the transmitter partner 2 it is also possible for the transmitter partner 2 to determine the distance D and then send it, for example, by radio directly to the control unit 20 of the receiver partnertoys 3. In this case, the sensor unit 26 is not required.
- the transmitter partner-boy control unit 10 would determine the distance D for this case.
- the control unit 20 can be provided, for example, to control the vibration drive 18 at a small distance D in such a way that a high intensity, ie a high amplitude and / or high frequency, is achieved.
- the control unit 20 has a memory in which one or more functions are stored, which represent a relationship between distance D and a vibration to be controlled by means of the vibration drive 18. These functions do not necessarily have to be linear, they can also be second, third, fourth degree or exponential functions. They can have different maxima. It is also possible to discretely select a fixed vibration including a fixed amplitude and fixed frequency depending on a distance.
- FIG. 2 now shows a particularly simple embodiment of a transmitter partnerto-2.
- the transmitter partner 2 has a housing 6 and a transmitting device 4, which in this embodiment consists of a plurality of neodymium magnets 30.
- the housing 6 corresponds to a penis ring and is formed of a silicone material.
- the silicone material is preferably medical silicone material having a SHORE A hardness in the range of 20-60.
- the neodymium magnets 30 are completely enclosed in the silicone material of the housing 6 and have a diameter DN which is in the range of 3-8 mm, in the length LN, which is in a range of 2 mm to 10 mm.
- five neodymium magnets 30 are shown, although more can be provided overall.
- at least four are distributed approximately equally around the circumference of the housing 6.
- the neodymium magnets 30 have a diameter of 6 mm and a length of 10 mm.
- Fig. 3 illustrates a somewhat more complex embodiment of a transmitter partner sound 2.
- the transmitter partner 2 according to this second embodiment (Fig. 3) comprises a transmitter partner style vibration driver 32.
- the transmitter partner 2 is also able to generate vibration.
- the transmitter partner 2 according to the second embodiment is suitable for insertion, for example. In this way, especially in a same-sex sex stimulation in a special way possible.
- the transmitter partner door in turn has a housing 6, which is completely encased in this embodiment by a silicone sheath 34 substantially.
- an energy source 8 Within the housing 6 (as already known from FIG. 1) an energy source 8, a transmitter partner child control unit 10 and a transmission device 4 are arranged.
- the transmitter partner-boy control unit 10 is further configured to control the transmitter-partner-boy vibratory drive 32 in this embodiment (FIG. 3).
- the sender parting-boy control unit 10 is configured to control the sender-type partner vibration drive 32 as a function of the distance D.
- the transmitter partner boy control unit 10 may have a transmitter partner boy sensor unit which may be formed in accordance with the sensor unit 26 of the receiver partner.
- the receiver partner 3 transmits the determined distance D wirelessly to the transmitter partner 2, so that the transmitter partner-child control unit 10 can control the transmitter partner style vibration drive 32 as a function of the distance D.
- the control unit 20 of the receiver partnertoys 3 wirelessly transmits control signals to the sender partner-boy control unit 10, which then controls the sender part-nanny vibration drive 32 accordingly.
- the transmitter partner 2 shown in FIG. 3 can also be used as a receiver partner.
- the receiver partner door 3 is substantially sickle-shaped or eggplant-shaped and is tapered in the region of the housing 6.
- the portion of the silicone sheath 34 in which the transmitter partner vibrator 32 is housed is for insertion into a body orifice, such as the vagina or other body orifices.
- a gain is achieved, so that the area can be used in housing 6 particularly suitable as a handle.
- controls such as buttons and the like may be provided.
- Such control buttons include, in particular, an on / off button and program select buttons, and various programs for driving the transmitter partner vibrator 32.
- the receiver partner 3 shown there has a substantially U-shaped configuration with a first leg 40 and a second leg 42, which are connected to one another by a connecting section 44.
- the connecting portion 44 is flexible while the first and second legs 40 and 42 may be fixed in shape.
- the first leg 40 is intended to be inserted into a vagina and the second leg 42 is intended to rest against the clitoris externally or in the region of the pubis.
- a housing 46 is provided, which einhaust a part of the electronic components of the receiver Partnertoys 3.
- the housing 46 is formed as a plastic housing of two housing halves.
- the control unit 20, the power source 22 and the sensor unit 26 are housed. These three elements can be provided together on a circuit board.
- the sensor unit 26 includes both a Hall sensor 48 and a receiver for RFID chips or near-field chips 50 if the transmitter partner 2 has an RFID chip or a near-field instead of the neodymium magnets 30 Chip.
- the receiver partner 3 can thus be operated in different transmitter Partnertoys 2.
- the oscillatory drive 18 in this exemplary embodiment is not designed as a simple vibration drive, but as a so-called pulsator drive. It comprises a coil element 52 and a parallel or coaxial with the coil element 52 arranged displaceably guided ferromagnetic core 54.
- the core 54 is displaceable along the axis A.
- the vibration drive 18 on a sleeve or tube 56 which may be provided at its ends with stop magnets or the like, to avoid coming out or striking the Magnetkerns54.
- the ferromagnetic core 54 has a mass m1 whose water ratio m1 to m2 to the total mass m2 of the receiver Partnertoys 3 in a range of 1: 100 to 1: 3.
- the ratio in the embodiment of FIG. 4 is in the range of 1: 5 to 1:10.
- a signal line 23 is provided for the transmission of control signals from the control unit 20 to the vibration drive 18, as already described with reference to Figure 1.
