"Device for male sexual stimulation" Technical sector of the invention

The invention relates to a device for male sexual stimulation, of the type comprising a hollow body suitable for receiving the insertion of a penis and specially adapted to stimulate this male erogenous member.

Background of the invention

Currently, different devices for male sexual stimulation are known. One type of known device basically consists of a hollow body, generally asible with one hand, which has an opening through which a penis can be inserted inside.

Inside the body are arranged a series of elements that oppress and stimulate this male erogenous member if a relative movement between the penis and the hollow body is intentionally produced, which favors a friction and consequently a certain sexual pleasure.

A first drawback associated with this type of device is its hygiene, and especially if fluids are poured inside, such as the result of ejaculation.

An object of the invention is a device that solves this problem, in which the cleaning and drying tasks of the components that may have direct contact with the penis are facilitated.

On the other hand it is also noted the lack of devices that offer better stimulation capacity. In this sense, devices of another nature are known, such as dildos, which incorporate electric motors capable of transmitting a vibration movement to the erotic toy in question, which favors user stimulation.

The incorporation of this type of motors sometimes becomes complex for several reasons, among which the fact that the construction solutions become more complex, and therefore make the manufacturing cost more expensive, and that fixing or fixing elements are necessary support as tortillería

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) and the like that favor possible mismatches with the use of the device in addition to that they also affect the assembly and the manufacturing cost as explained above.

It is therefore a secondary objective of the invention a device that, being constructively simple, allows the incorporation of similar electric motors or mechanism.

It is also an objective of the invention a more versatile device, which allows different modes of action beyond those that may previously be preprogrammed in the device.

Explanation of the invention.

The device of the invention is one of those comprising a hollow body comprising a first end with an opening for the insertion of a user's penis.

In essence, the device is characterized in that said hollow body is provided with an inner lining that determines a housing in which a cover destined to receive the penis is inserted with adjustment and removably through a corresponding elastically deformable mouthpiece to the which is accessed through the hollow body opening.

Being the case the only component that has direct contact with the penis, its removal makes cleaning the device much easier, in addition to the case becoming a consumable component, which can be easily replaced by others that offer other types of benefits, which are different size or simply that have not been previously used.

In a variant of the invention, the sheath has a general blind tubular shape and is constituted by two mutually attachable halves according to a longitudinal plane of the sheath.

Advantageously, being able to separate the two halves of the case, you have access to the bottom of the case, facilitating cleaning tasks.

Preferably, the sheath is made of latex or silicone and is provided with a rough inner surface for stimulation of the penis.

According to another feature of the invention, the inner lining of the hollow body is formed in one piece and has a general shape in a cone trunk, being provided with at least one suitable housing for containing a

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) vibrating motor or a transducer element.

The housing of the motors in the lining prevents their direct contact with a rigid component of the device, such as the hollow tubular body, and ensures that the transmitted pulses are not attenuated by this hollow body and reach the sheath to a greater extent, and consequently to the user's penis.

According to one embodiment, said housings are configured as pockets, being provided with respective openings accessible only from the outer face of the lining.

This feature allows the support of the vibrating motors, or in the case of the transducers, without using tortillería or auxiliary support elements. This solution facilitates the assembly of the components and access to them in case of failure.

On the other hand, that the openings are accessible only from the outer face of the lining ensures that any fluid that escapes from the inside of the sheath cannot reach the vibrating motors or transducer elements.

In a variant of interest, the coating comprises at least two housings, one of which contains a vibrating motor and the other a transducer.

In a preferred embodiment, at least one transducer element is a force sensor, capable of generating a signal based on the value of the force exerted on it.

According to another feature of the invention, the inner lining of the hollow body is waterproof and is provided on its inner face with a series of grooves that extend in an axial direction, which determine two suitable channels for evacuating a liquid that can be poured into its interior.

According to a variant of interest, the inner face of the lining has, in cross section, an inner contour of crenellated configuration, which is slightly deformed when the cover is inserted inside it, and which contributes to the retention of said cover, when it is expanded upon receiving a penis, by elastic reaction of the material that constitutes the coating.

According to another aspect of the device according to the invention, the hollow body comprises support means for a processor and means for accommodating at least one battery electrically connected to the processor and to the vibrating motors and / or transducers, the device also comprising a series of

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) push buttons for the control of the aforementioned motors and transducers according to different modes of operation controlled by the processor.

In one mode of operation, the speed of at least one of the vibrating motors is determined as a function of the value of the signal generated by at least one of the transducers.

It is also contemplated that the device comprises means for establishing a wireless communication with another device so that, in an operation mode, the speed of the vibrating motors is determined by the information transmitted to them from this other device, which may be this by example a device with similar characteristics, a PC, a mobile phone, a tablet, etc.

According to one embodiment, the means for accommodating at least one battery and the processor are arranged at the second end of the hollow body, protected by a tubular cover axially attachable to the hollow body and whose outer surface links without continuity solution with the outer surface. of the hollow body when the tubular cover is in its correct coupling position.

In this embodiment, the pushbuttons are preferably accessed through the opening of the tubular cover opposite the coupling opening with the tubular body, so that these are easily accessible with the thumb of the same hand with which the user can grab the device.

According to a constructive form that guarantees the tightness, the inner lining of the hollow body being a separable component or not of said hollow body, the lining comprises in its mouth an outer overhang which, as a sealing gasket, is interposed between the edge of the opening of the hollow body and a first retention ring that is applied on said edge, the first retention ring on its outer face being provided with an annular surface on which an outer flange of which the cover is provided is located, which is interposed between the first retention ring and a second retention ring externally attachable on the first retention ring.

Brief description of the drawings

Fig. 1 is an exploded view of a variant of the device according to the invention;

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the device of Fig. 1 with its components properly assembled; Y

Fig. 3, is a cross section of the device illustrated in Fig. 2, according to the cutting plane AA indicated in said Fig. 2.

Detailed description of the drawings

Structurally, the device 1 illustrated in Fig. 1 comprises three main components that fit into each other, the outermost being a hollow body 2, intended to be held by a user; the intermediate component is a molded inner body of a single piece, which constitutes an inner lining 4 of said hollow body 2, and which determines a housing inside which the third component formed by an insert is inserted and removable sheath 5, intended to receive the penis through a corresponding elastically deformable mouth 6 which is accessed through the opening 3 of the hollow body 2.

With regard to the sheath 5, it can be seen in Fig. 1 that it has a general blind tubular shape and is constituted by two mutually attachable halves 5a, 5b according to a longitudinal cutting plane of the sheath 5.

This cover 5 is made of a flexible material, such as latex or silicone, which conforms to the figure of the penis, pressing it slightly, and is provided with a rough inner surface 7 for stimulating the penis.

The two halves 5a and 5b are provided with complementary coupling means 34 and 35, respectively, which in the example shown are formed by a series of hook-shaped tabs arranged in one of the halves of the sheath 5 cooperate with incoming arranged in the other half, and retaining the eyelashes when the two halves 5a and 5b of the cover 5 are applied against each other. In Fig. 1, the two halves 5a and 5b of the sheath 5 are shown in an opposite position, prior to their mutual coupling.

Naturally, other solutions are contemplated for the separable coupling of the two halves 5a and 5b of the sheath 5, such as providing the two protuberance halves in one half and corresponding recesses in the other half, intended to cooperate to retain the two halves 5a and 5b together sufficiently to facilitate them to remain correctly juxtaposed

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) while the operation of inserting the sheath 5 into the hollow body 2 takes place, and more specifically within the housing that determines the inner lining 4 of said hollow body 2.

With regard to this inner lining 4 of the hollow body 2, in the variant shown, it is also formed from a single piece of an impermeable material, such as silicone, and has a general cone-shaped shape.

The body that forms the lining 4 is inserted into the hollow body 2 through its opening 3, and is firmly attached to said hollow body 2. While the sheath 5 is a removable component of the device 1, the liner 4 interior is a component that should not be manipulated to reuse device 1.

The lining 4 can be permanently attached to the hollow body 2, or alternatively detachably. In any case, it is preferable that the outer face of the coating forms, together with the inner surface of the hollow body 2, a sealed chamber or compartment. One way to achieve this goal is described in detail below.

As shown in Fig. 3, the inner lining 4 is advantageously provided on its inner face 13b with a series of grooves 14 that extend in an axial direction and which determine suitable channels for evacuating a fluid that can be poured into the inside of the cover 5, when it is inserted into the hollow body 2, and escape from it.

It is further observed that the inner face 13b of the lining 4 has, in cross section, an inner contour 15 with a crenellated configuration. The inner lining 4 being formed of a flexible material, this configuration allows the lining to be slightly deformed when the sheath 5 is inserted inside it and to contribute to the retention of said sheath 5 when it is expanded upon receiving a penis, by reaction elastic of the material constituting the coating 4.

It also stands out that this particular configuration solves another drawback presented by known devices. And it is that the grooves 14 prevent the occurrence of a vacuum effect that prevents the extraction of the sheath 5 from inside the hollow body 2, a situation that occurs in the known devices and makes it difficult to remove the sheath 5.

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) In the example of Fig. 3, two diametrically opposed recesses 37 are distinguished in the inner contour 15 of the inner lining 4, whose purpose is to receive the fit of the longitudinal ridges 38 juxtaposed from two halves 5a and 5b of the sheath 5 , which act as a flange to facilitate the joining of said two halves 5a and 5b of said sheath 5.

According to another aspect of the device 1 of the invention, it incorporates a series of vibrating motors and transducers, in particular force sensors, with the purpose of increasing the stimulation of the penis and allowing different modes of use of the device 1.

In the example, the body that forms the lining 4 is provided with five housings, of which only housings 8 and 9 are visible in Fig. 1, and the total of the five housings 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 in Fig. 2.

These housings 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 are fully formed with the body that forms the inner lining 4 and are configured as pockets, being provided with respective openings (only openings 32 and 33 being visible in Fig. 2 corresponding to the housings 8 and 9), accessible only from the outer face 13a of the lining 4, that is to say from the watertight compartment that form the outer face 13a of the inner lining 4 and the inner surface of the hollow body 2. Note that the dimensions of the housings 8 and 9, they are suitable to receive the vibrating motors 16 and 17 with adjustment, respectively, without requiring auxiliary elements such as screws or the like to support the inner lining 4. Similarly, the dimensions of the housings 10, 11 and 12 are preferably selected according to the dimensions of the transducers 18, 19 and 20 formed in the example by force sensors, capable of generating a signal based on the value of the force that It is exercised on them.

In Fig. 3 it is observed that the lining 4 is provided with a longitudinal rib 36, which rests directly on the inner surface of the hollow body 2, whose purpose is to prevent unwanted displacement of the force sensors contained in the housings 10 to 12, which are aligned.

Going back to Figs. 1 and 2, the hollow body 2 is provided at its distal end with support means for a processor 30 and with means for housing at least one battery 21 electrically connected to the processor 30 and to the motors

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) vibrators and / or transducers 16 to 20. The device 1 further comprises a series of buttons 39 for the control of said motors and transducers according to different modes of operation controlled by the processor 30, some of which are explained below by way of example.

In a possible mode of operation, the speed of at least one of the vibrating motors 16, 17 is determined as a function of the value of the signal generated by at least one of the transducers 18, 19 and 20. This form of operation allows a certain interaction with the user, so that depending on the force, the rhythm or other factors that alter the signal generated by the force sensor through the penis, the speed of rotation of the vibrating motors will be in line. Thus, for example, in a non-limiting scenario, the greater the force captured by the sensors, the greater the speed of rotation of the vibrating motors, or vice versa. This interactive mode of operation will ultimately be managed by an algorithm stored in the processor 30.

In another mode of operation, for which it is envisaged that the device 1 comprises means for establishing wireless communication with another device, the speed of the vibrating motors 16, 17 will be determined by the information transmitted to them from this other device, which in turn, it may be associated with the signals generated by transducers incorporated in similar devices, that is, in other male or female sexual stimulation devices.

It is noted that the means for accommodating at least one battery 21 and the processor 30 are arranged at the second end of the hollow body 2, protected by a tubular cover 28 axially attachable to the hollow body 2.

The external configuration of said tubular cover 28 is such that, when it is in its correct coupling position with the hollow body 2, its outer surface links without continuity solution with the outer surface of said hollow body 2, which increases the ergonomics of the device 1.

Through the opening 28a of this tubular cover 28, opposite the coupling opening 28b with the tubular body 2, the buttons 39 are accessed, so that they are easily accessible with the thumb of the same hand with the that the user can grab the device 1.

In order to ensure the tightness of the device 1, and especially of the chamber determined by the inner surface of the hollow body 2 and the face

REPLACEMENT SHEET (Rule 26) exterior of the inner lining 4, and consequently to insulate the vibrating motors 16 and 17 from any fluid, the lining 4 comprises in its mouth an outer overhang 22 which, as a sealing gasket, is interposed between the edge 23 of the opening 3 of the hollow body 2 and a first retaining ring 24, which is applied on said edge 23.

In turn, for retaining the sheath 5 in its operative position, the first retaining ring 24 is provided on its outer face with an annular surface 25 on which an outer flange 26 sits, of which the mouthpiece 6 is provided with the sheath 5, which is interposed between the first retaining ring 24 and a second retaining ring 27, externally attachable on the first retaining ring 24.

Finally, the device 1 comprises a removable outer cover 29, which closes the access to the interior of the hollow body 2, and therefore to the cover 5, and protects it during periods of non-use of the device 1.
