Definitions
- the apparatus essentially consists of a pneumatic or hydraulic circuit in which there is produced an alternating displacement of a fluid by means of an electrically-driven piston pump the circuit of which is connected by means of a flexible tube with a chamber which has impermeable and flexible walls, the volume of which chamber varies alternately with the admission or expulsion of the fluid.
- the use of the apparatus is envisaged in cases such as the reactivation of the respiratory function of victims of electrocution, drowning, attacks, etc.
- One of its principal applications is that of an auxiliary means for the achieving of sexual intercourse in the case of people who are old, paralysed, etc.
- the separating element will have the form of a solid ring with an orifice.
- FIG. 1 of the said drawings shows a section through a vertical plane of the compressor of the machine in a preferential form of construction.
- FIG. 2 shows a lateral view of the same compressor.
- FIG. 3 shows a plan view, cut away in part, of the separating element.
- FIG. 4 shows a perspective view of the case for housing the apparatus.
- the machine under reference consists of the following elements: a motor, belt and pulley transmission systems, a cylinder with a piston, a flexible tube and a pneumatic chamber.
- Lubrication is effected when the piston travels to the base of the cylinder and becomes covered with oil which it distributes along its whole run.
- the machine functions by means of the motor 13 which through the pulleys 14, 23 and 38, and the belts 16, 24, transmits its rotatory movement, which is converted into rectilinear movement by means of the crank 32 and the semiconnecting rod 36, which latter can be adjusted by means of the screws 39 to the semiconnecting rod 7, which latter is joined, in such a manner that it can revolve, by a rod 5 to the piston 3 which adopts a rectilinear movement in the sense of upward and downward travel.
- the valve 6 opens, and the cylinder 2 becomes filled to capacity with air or liquid.
- the valve is almost totally closed by a spring, and at the end of the said downward. movement it is closed by the pressure which builds up within the cylinder.
- FIG. 4 The case in which the apparatus will be housed is shown in FIG. 4.
- the case is divided into two compartments, at large compartment, A, where the machine itself is housed, and a smaller compartment, B, which serves to house the flexible tube and the chamber, with its gates C and D.
- compartment A In one side of compartment A are provided apertures E and F, intended for the cooling of the motor.
- the case Towards the front part, the case is supported on two wheels, G; on the two lateral parts and on the upper part it has two handles, H, and at the bottom, at the rear, two rubber feet, I.
- Apparatus comprising a body defining an enclosed chamber with walls which are flexible and impermeable, and means for selectively supplying a fluid to and removing the fluid from said chamber to cause expansion and contraction thereof, the latter means comprising a flexible tube connected to said body, and a compressor connected to said tube to alternately supply fluid thereto and remove fluid therefrom, said compressor comprising a vertical cylinder, a piston sealably and slidably supported in said cylinder, and means for driving the piston in reciprocation in said cylinder, said tube opening into said cylinder at the lower end thereof beneath said piston, said piston having a lower concave face including a portion above the level of the opening of said tube when the piston is in its lowermost position whereby the cylinder can contain a lubricant in a layer beneath the tube opening and the piston becomes immersed into the lubricant layer when it reaches its lowermost position thereby enabling lubrication of the piston as it travels in the cylinder, and valve means in said piston which opens to permit entry of fluid to the chamber until
