Abstract

A fixed penile substitute device consists of a curved, firm, expanded plastic substitute penile portion (or dildoe) (10) (for anal insertion) wrapped with layers of adhesive plastic tape (for adjustable thickness) and covered by a latex rubber condom (24). The base contains an embedded, threaded (female) fixture (11) by means of which it is attached via a screw eye (12) and safety breakable loop (14) of weak thread. Alternatively a metal or plastic plug-in (easily separated) attachment may be used (Fig 4) (not shown). The weak thread (14) is attached to one end of a bracket (16) or metal or wooden rod beam or bar, which is loosely attached at the opposite end to a wall or heavy piece of furniture (20) either temporarily or permanently. The insertable (penile substitute) portion may be constructed by moulding, such as injection moulding or built from commercially available curved circular plastic forms which are cheaply available and used for decoration. (Fig 5) (not shown). The thickness can be readily altered to suit the user by winding (or removing) adhesive plastic tape round the body, beneath the condom cover. <IMAGE>

Description

SUBSTITUTE ARTICLES A Fixed Penile Substitute.

This invention relates to a penile substitute. More particularly the invention relates to a fixed penile substitute for anal insertion.

Many males practice passive anal intercourse and in addition manual anal insertion between partners is common. The insertion and movement of suitable objects causes a favourable sensation by stimulating the seminal vesicles located behind the bladder, and the prostate gland.

Devices used for this purpose have included a wide range of cylindrically shaped male organ substitutes such as cigar cases or even electric flashlight bodies. However, if such ob ects are shared and one partner has the AIDS virus this infection may be transferred during the process with ultimately fatal results. Also, it is not uncommon for such items to become impacted in the anus requiring surgical removal.

An object of the invention is to provide improvements in relation to one or more of the matters discussed herein or generally.

According to the invention there is provided a method and apparatus for anal self stimulation, the solitary use of which by "passive" homosexual or bisexual males will provide the desired anal stimulation while avoiding the risk of AIDS. It is expressly stated that not all features of the following paragraph are necessarily essential features of the broadest aspect of the invention claimed.

The apparatus comprises a solid or semi-solid structure. This can be made from plastic, firm polystyrene (e.g. expanded foam) or any similar low heat conductivity, firm material. The material used conducts heat poorly and therefore does not feel cold. The device is cylindrical, curved and of a firm consistency, since this contributes greatly to the production of satisfactory sensation. The curvature is similar to that of the sacrum bone located in the wall of the pelvis so as to minimise discomfort upon insertion. The base of the device contains an embedded screw-threaded (female) metal fixture, such as an expanding bolt or similar fixture. This threaded fixture can then be attached to a screw eye. Alternatively, a metal or plastic plug-in (easily separated) attachment may be used.The screw eye or the like is used to attach the device to one end of a bar or bracket or similar supporting structure. Attachment to the bar or bracket is achieved by using an easily breakable loop, such as cotton thread or other suitable easily ruptured material. This easily breakable loop, (or alternative plug-in feature) provides a safety mechanism. In the event of a fall or over-violent movement by the user, the loop would break, avoiding discomfort or injury to the user. The other end of the bar or bracket is attached to a wall or heavy piece of furniture or the like, either temporarily or permanently at a height appropriate for the user to achieve anal insertion while standing.All attachments and fittings of the insertable portion (dildoe) and bracket or bar, are loose; this produces a random or unexpected stimulation -- a sort of "tickling" effect not usually obtainable by a single person working alone. The extension of the device from the firm support by means of the bar or bracket allows space for positioning a mirror, to be used as a visual aid in the guidance of the substitute article during insertion and use. After anal insertion by the user, slight movements of the user's pelvis are converted (by lever action at the fulcrum of the loosely fixed base) to oscillatory lateral or "waving" movements of the insertable (penile substitute) portion or "dildoe" within the anal canal and rectum of the user.This is achieved in a self-controlled, "no hands" manner which imitates the effects of homosexual anal intercourse which frequently results in the transmission of AIDS infection. The use of this device as a substitute for anal intercourse would eliminate the risk of AIDS infection. The fixed end of the rod or bar may also be attached via an additional bracket to the side of a bed, enabling insertion by the user while in a horizontal position, lying on the bed.

An important feature of this device, is that when originally made, it's cross-sectional diameter (thickness) can later be progressively increased to the optimal preferred size and shape by the user, by wrapping the body of the dildoe with multiple layers of suitable adhesive tape (such as electrical insulation tape or similar), in order to increase the thickness by small, but progressively increasing amounts until the "ideal' thickness for each individual user is reached. A latex rubber condom cover provides a hygienic smooth exterior which can be discarded after use.

An embodiment of the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Fig 1 shows a perspective view of the device in the attached position.

Fig 2 shows a cross-section view of the device and how attachment is achieved.

Fig 3 shows a bracket of the type suitable for attachment of the device.

Fig 4 shows a perspective view of a "plug-in" attachment.

Fig 5 shows how the device may be made from an existing product.

As shown in Fig 1 the device comprises a rounded cylindrical and curved structure 10.

The structure 10 is made from plastic, polystyrene or other suitable material. The base of structure 10 houses a threaded expanding bolt 11 (seen in Fig 2). The expanding bolt 11 is attached to a screw eye 12. Screw eye 12 or the like, enables the device to be attached to a bar or bracket 16. Attachment of structure 10 to bar or bracket 16 is facilitated by a loop of cotton or other easily breakable material 14. The loop of cotton 14 is threaded between screw eye 12 and attachment 18 on bar or bracket 16. The bar or bracket 16 is attached to a wall or a piece of heavy furniture 20 via suitable fixture holes 22.

In use, the height of the bar or bracket is set by user and structure 10 (after ad ustment of thickness by winding with adhesive tape) is covered by one or more latex condoms 24. The movements made by the user are mainly lateral and vertical; this provides the required stimulation to internal organs, particularly the seminal vesicles, prostate and bladder. Such movements do not rupture the breakable loop, however this or the "plug-in" construction allows quick detachment of the dildoe in the event of potentially harmful movement (such as a fall or loss of balance). The "loose" connection effected by the cotton loop 14 and other points of attachment (e.g. to bar at 18 and 22) facilitate a random unexpected stimulation, similar to a "tickling" effect. Such movements do not rupture the cotton loop 14; however this loop will break if potentially harmful or violent movement occurs, such as a fall or loss of balance.

Claims

1. A substitute device (penile substitute or dildoe), comprises a solid or semi-solid curved structure which is fixed by means of an easily ruptured safety linkage to one end of a bracket or rod. The other end of the bracket or rod is loosely fixed to a heavy object (such as a chest of drawers) or a wall. Alternatively, the end of the bracket or rod may be fixed, via an additional bracket to the side of a bed, for use when the user lies in bed on his side.

2. A substitute device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the attachment fittings of the device are all loose, (thereby facilitating "random" or unexpected stimulation which imitates the effects of a second person -- a sort of "tickling" effect, not usually obtainable by a single person working alone).

3. A substitute device, as claimed in Claim 1 or Claim 2, wherein the insertable (penile substitute) portion of the device has a firm consistency.

4. A substitute device, as claimed in Claim 1 or Claim 3 wherein the insertable (penile substitute) portion is composed of a material (such as firm polystyrene or similar (expanded) plastic), which conducts heat very poorly.

5. A substitute device, as claimed in Claim 1 or Claim 4, wherein the insertable (penile substitute) portion is not straight but is curved to the same general curvature as the rear wall of the human pelvis - the sacrum bone.

6. A substitute device, as claimed in Claim 1 or Claim 2, wherein the insertable (penile substitute) portion is attached to the bracket or rod by means of a linkage which has an easily breakable element.

7. A substitute device, as claimed in Claim 1 or Claim 5, wherein the diameter or thickness of the insertable (penile substitute) portion and it's overall contour is altered or ad usted by winding on (or removal of) multiple layers of adhesive plastic tape around the unit until the desired thickness or contour is achieved.

8. A substitute device, as claimed in Claim 1 or Claim 7, wherein the insertable (penile substitute) portion (including wound-on plastic tape) is covered by one or more rolled-on latex condoms.

9. A substitute device as described herein with reference to Figures 1-5 of the accompanying diagrams. While size and exact dimensions are not critical, the insertable (penile susbstitute) portion is intended to approximately immitate the human organ and would be approximately 12 to 18 cm in length and 3 to 5 cm in diameter, to be manufactured in various sizes.
