Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for stimulation of erogenous body zones, such as a dildo or a vibrator.
- the invention relates to an apparatus arranged for stimulation of erogenous body zones, both those which are exposed on the outside as well as such erogenous body zones that are concealed within an opening of the body.
- Known products for this purpose are hampered by the fact that the shape they are given in manufacturing only admits a few combinations of use and stimulating acts, determined by choice of material and manufacturing process.
- the kind of material typically used in this type of apparatus, such as dildos and vibrators includes plastic, metal and occasionally burnt minerals (glass, porcelain, clay), or wood. Limitations in use due to the given shape necessitates the existence of dozens of versions from the same manufacturer, dedicated for different uses.
- An object for the present invention is to remove the above-mentioned problem associated with a use that is limited by a fixed shape which is permanently set in manufacturing of a dildo or vibrator.
- the problem is solved through the provision of a dildo and /or a vibrator which can be reshaped by the user and adjusted to various uses and degrees/combinations of sexual stimulation.
- the invention briefly discloses an apparatus for stimulation of erogenous body zones, such as a dildo and/ or a vibrator, comprising a through heating repeatedly mouldable polymeric core which becomes plastically mouldable upon heating, and which is dimensionally stable at a temperature that is lower than the temperature at which plasticity occurs.
- the apparatus comprises a polymeric core which can be repeatedly reshaped upon heating, which becomes plastically mouldable when heated to a temperature of about 40 °C (typically about 38-42 °C) or higher, and which is dimensionally stable at body temperature (about 37 °C) and below.
- the polymeric core comprises a thermoplastic.
- a polymorph plastic polymer such as PCL (polycaprolactone) , is specifically preferred.
- the apparatus preferably comprises a tensile, elastic skin made of plastic, rubber, or a mixture thereof, the skin enclosing the polymeric core.
- the skin may have a thickness of at least about 2 mm, preferably in the range of about 2-5 mm.
- the skin is in one of its ends sealed by insertion of a plug of skin material or skin compatible material.
- a body may be arranged in tandem with the polymeric core preferably inside the skin. This body is not thermoformable at temperatures below the melting point of the polymeric core.
- heating can be applied via an electrically conductive heating element or by externally applied heat.
- An electric heating element may thus be arranged in a heat transfer relation, internally or externally, to the polymeric core.
- the heating element can be realized as a flexible resistance heating wire or a resistance heating band which is integrated or embedded in the polymeric core.
- the heating element is a flexible, electric current conducting carbon fibre band.
- the heating element may be electrically connected to a rechargeable accumulator which is encapsulated or housed in the polymeric core.
- the heating element is instead electrically connected to a connection terminal for supply of operating power from external current source to heat the heating element.
- the heating element may be an IR light source.
- a rise in temperature is thus caused by infrared heat radiation at a frequency which has influence on the temperature of the polymeric plastic from the outside.
- the rise in temperature is caused by hot liquid, such as water, at a temperature of at least about 40 °C, arranged in heat transfer relation to the polymeric core and thus influencing the temperature of the polymer plastic.
- the invention is applied to a vibrator comprising a vibrator body which is arranged at least partially to be set in a vibrating condition through activation of an electric motor, powered by an accumulator to act on the vibrator body.
- At least one vibration generating electric motor can be housed in a dimensionally stable first motor capsule, located in the polymeric core.
- At least one additional electric motor can be housed in a dimensionally stable second motor capsule which is connected to the first motor capsule, at an alterable relative distance, by means of a flexible anchoring link and a current conductor.
- the above-mentioned accumulator is advantageously housed in one of the first or second motor capsules.
- Control means for activation and control of the vibrator is advantageously arranged inside the skin.
- a receiver for wireless transmitting of control signals to the vibrator motor(s) and / or to the heating element may additionally be located inside the skin.
- Discrete bodies which are arranged floating freely in the polymeric core, can optionally be moved to an advanced position near the surface of the polymeric core, or be pressed deeper into the polymeric core, when the polymeric core is in the plasticised state.

- Fig. 7 shows one embodiment of the invention in an exploded sectional view.
- FIG. 1 an apparatus according to the invention is illustrated in the form of a dildo with vibrator function.
- This dildo comprises a vibrator body 1 having a core 2 which is completely, or at least to a major part thereof, enclosed by a surrounding skin 3.
- a first motor capsule 4 housing an electric motor 5 is embedded in the core, as is an electric accumulator or battery 6.
- An apparatus according to Fig. 1 thus belongs to a group of battery operated massage /vibrator articles which are adapted, e.g., to be brought along for use in various environments and situations as desired.
- a second motor capsule 7, housing an additional electric motor 8 is connected to the first motor capsule 4 via a flexible but non-tensile link 9 and electrically coupled to the accumulator 6 via a current conductor 10.
- the link 9 permits decreasing the relative distance between the motor capsules 4 and 7, while simultaneously ensuring that a maximum relative distance between the motor capsules never exceeds the length of the current conductor 10.
- Said link 9 and the conductive wire 10 may be embedded inside a protective body or casing 11 that occupies a cavity between the motor capsules 4 and 7 in the core 2.
- the body or casing 1 1 is preferably made in a tensile and elastic material such as plastic, rubber, or mixtures thereof.
- the body or casing 1 1 can be made in silicone, e.g.
- the motor capsule 4, as well as the motor capsule 7 where applicable, are of the motor capsule 4, as well as the motor capsule 7 where applicable.
- dimensionally stable which here means that they have the ability to withstand pressure without being deformed, such as the body weight applied by a user in use of the vibrator. They can also withstand increased temperature in connection with reshaping of the vibrator in ways that will be more closely explained below.
- the motor capsule 4 (as well as the motor capsule 7 if appropriate) can be made in wood, plastic or metal, and shaped as a shell or as a solid body which closely encloses the embedded components.
- a generator respectively is operatively connected to each motor and can be driven by the motor to generate vibration in the vibrator body.
- Said generator can, in a way known per se, include a balance wheel with an eccentrically located point of gravity coupled to the motor axis.
- Charging of the accumulator 6 is accomplished via a terminal 12, arranged on the exterior of the vibrator for connection of the accumulator to an external charging unit.
- This connection terminal 12 can be realized as a USB contact or as a socket for a coaxial contact, connecting the accumulator to the external charging unit via a current conductor 13.
- the charging unit typically comprises a transformer and a rectifier (AC/DC converter) as is known per se.
- An operating means with control means 14 for operation and control of the vibrator is arranged inside the skin 3, at a position in the vibrator body that facilitates access from the outside.
- the control means 14 may include a circuit breaker for switching the vibrator on and off, and pressure sensitive contacts for stepwise or continuous increase/ decrease of rotational speed in the motors 5 and 8.
- the skin 3 is made of a water and oil resistant, tensile and elastic material.
- the skin 3 is preferably made in plastic, rubber, or a mixture thereof. Naturally, the skin 3 contains no toxic or allergenic components.
- a suitable material is silicone.
- the skin 3 may be moulded about the core 2.
- the skin 3 has a thickness which is determined, on one hand, with respect to its ability to withstand wear, and on the other hand determined with respect to its ability to transmit vibrations to the user without undue cushioning.
- the skin 3 typically has a thickness of at least 2 mm, preferably in the range of 2-5 mm.
- the properties of the skin are of course also depending on hardness of the material.
- a material hardness in the range of 25-55 Shore A (ASTM D2240 type A) may advantageously be selected.
- the present invention discloses a mouldable core 2 made in thermoformable polymer material which is dimensionally stable at normal body temperature and below, while transforming into a plastically mouldable state at a comparatively low plasticising temperature.
- plasticising temperature refers to a temperature at which the material becomes mouldable and can be given a deformation that remains
- dimensionally stable means that the core 2, in the following also named the polymeric core 2, can be flexible and springy / elastic at normal body temperature (about 37 °C) and below, but will at this temperature, however, typically not undergo permanent deformation under a stress or tension which is lower than its breaking strength.
- Conceivable materials in the polymeric core 21 are thermoplastic elastomers or thermoplastics, for example.
- the polymeric core 2 preferably comprises a by heating repeatedly mouldable thermoplastic which becomes plastically mouldable at temperatures above about 40° C.
- PCL is an abbreviation for polycaprolactone.
- PCL is a polymorph plastic polymer which transforms into a plasticised state at temperatures above about 42 °C, having a melting point of about 60 °C, while being elastic at normal body temperature.
- a heating element 15 is arranged for heating the polymeric core 2 to plasticising temperature.
- the heating element is, in other words, arranged in a heat transfer relation to the polymeric core 2.
- the heating element 15 may be embedded and integrated in the polymeric core 2.
- the heating element 15 is realized in the form of a flexible carbon fibre band embedded in the polymeric core 2.
- Carbon fibre bands are electrically conductive and form resistors when connected to an electric source. This property is used in various applications, such as in electrically heated blankets, chair seats or in clothing.
- the temperature in the surface of the carbon fibre band can be determined by adapting the surface area of the carbon fibre band to the current supplied. In the present invention, this measure is used to permit a surface temperature of about 50-55 °C at maximum.
- the carbon fibre band can be provided in the form of one or more, substantially in parallel running lengths, or in the form of a loop or coil.
- the carbon fibre band may additionally be attached to the motor capsules 4 and 7 in order to counteract dislocation during reshaping of the polymeric core.
- the heating element 15 may alternatively be realized in the form of an electric resistance heating wire with a flexible and heat insulating coating which limits the outside temperature of the heating element to about 50-55 °C.
- An insulated heating wire may in this way be formed as a loop or coil embedded in the polymeric core 2.
- the heating element 15 may also be completely omitted in favour of an externally applied radiant heating from an electrically powered heat bed supplying, e.g., infrared radiation in a medium- or long-wave frequency range for heating of the thermoplastic / polymer.
- the heating element 15 may also be completely omitted in favour of an externally applied heat from warm or hot liquid which affects the temperature in the thermoplastic/polymer by surrounding the apparatus, partially or completely, with the liquid.
- Heating the heating element 15 can be accomplished using current supply from the accumulator 6.
- the heating element may alternatively be connected to a connection terminal for supply of operating current from external current source to heat the heating element.
- Said connection terminal can be the same terminal 12 which is intended for transfer of charging current to the accumulator, provided that the terminal 12 is arranged with a switch for shifting between charging of the
- the circuit board 16 may, if appropriate, also include a receiver of control signals generated by an outside control unit and transferred by wireless transmission, such as blue tooth transmission, e.g., from a remote -control unit, a cell phone or from a computer via a computer application.
- the heating element 15 may be disposed in a peripheral region of the polymeric core 2, in order this way to reduce the heating time needed for a shallow modification of the shape as compared to the heating time required for a deep-reaching change to the shape of the apparatus.
- the technical effect provided in this embodiment can be used, e.g., to bring forward some harder and dimensionally stable bodies or balls which are embedded and flowing free in an outer or peripheral region of the polymeric core, this way giving the apparatus a knobby or dimpled outside.
- the polymeric core can be moulded around the embedded components upon manufacturing.
- the skin can be moulded around the polymeric core in a successive manufacturing step.
- the skin and polymeric core can be combined in a co-casting process.
- the skin may alternatively be afterwards mounted and sealed in a final
- the polymeric core may be inserted through the open end of a pre-manufactured skin in the shape of a hose or sock, which is afterwards sealed in its open end.
- Sealing may be accomplished by melting or gluing and may additionally include the insertion and fixation of a sealing plug 3' (see Fig. 7) made of skin material or skin compatible material.
- the skin may be undersized to exert a contractive pressure about the polymeric core in order to sit tightly about the core regardless of shape. Adherence between the skin and the polymeric core can be ensured in various other ways, such as by gluing, crimpling, or by melting at the interface between the skin and the polymeric core.
- the invention is realized in a repeatedly re- mouldable polymeric core comprising a polymorph plastic polymer enclosed inside a flexible silicone skin, optionally in combination with one or more vibration motors.
- the moulding properties of a polymorph plastic polymer such as PCL at
- temperatures between about 42 °and 60 °C can be compared to modelling clay.
- plasticity of the dildo and/or vibrator is indicated by the introduced bidirectional arrows which schematically illustrate available directions of local expansion and contraction of the core in its plasticised state.
- the material When cooled to below about 42 °C, the material rapidly hardens into solid form having an elongation and breaking strength comparable to semi-flexible plastics (somewhat similar to a rigid sole of a shoe or the plastic in a plastic tub, e.g.).
- An outer skin e.g. of silicone, has a higher elongation than has the thermoplastic polymer of the core. The skin can thus accommodate a reshaping without breakage whereby the dildo/ vibrator, as an integer unit, can adopt any shape of the polymeric core.
- Heating to plasticising temperature can be effectuated inside the apparatus, preferably by supply of electric current to a carbon fibre band embedded in the polymeric core.
- a carbon fibre band embedded in the polymeric core.
- the carbon fibre band can be adjusted to emit sufficiently high surface temperature, such as about 50-55 °C. Heating can be accomplished using rechargeable batteries or by
- Heating may alternatively be effectuated by means of an outside heating source, such as an IR light source, which is connected to a battery or to the electric mains.
- a box, forming a heat bed, can be provided for the purpose. Heating can also be effectuated by flushing or lowering the apparatus in warm or hot liquid, such as water, having a temperature of at least about 40 °C.
- the skin that encloses the apparatus also protects the user from the higher temperatures occurring during reshaping of the apparatus. From a user point of view, a noticeable aspect is that the apparatus assumes a comfortable surface temperature making it ready for use immediately after reshaping.
- motors and electronic connections can be of known specifications and may include, e.g., one or more electric motors with different and/ or variable frequency and pulse rate.
- a vibrator body 200 of elliptic or egg-shaped design, but otherwise of corresponding structure is shown in Fig. 2. Since the rest of the components in the vibrator of Fig. 2 can be identical with the corresponding components in the apparatus of Fig. 1, accordingly they have received the same reference numbers.
- Yet another alternative embodiment 300 is shown in Fig.3.
- the basic shape of Fig. 1 is additionally equipped with a protruding appendix 301.
- an additional motor 302 with vibrator function is installed in a third motor capsule 303, disposed in the appendix 301.
