Drying rack / drip tray for hollow objects, especially sex toys for men

Abstract

The patent claim relates to a device belonging to everyday life, with which an elongated hollow body, provided with an opening on at least one end face, can be dried and stored. The device is characterized by the fact that, due to its design features, sufficient air circulation is ensured even when drying objects made of elastic material with a small inner diameter (such as male masturbation aids) to guarantee the drying process. To accelerate drying, an active ventilation device can optionally be integrated into the device. The device includes a base at the bottom (geometry arbitrary) and, optionally, an insertion aid at the top. The central section, the actual functional part, consists of a tubular body whose surface is either a grid of arbitrary geometry or a perforated tube. Crucial to its function are the cavity inside the body and the openings, which allow for air circulation and moisture removal.

Description

[0001] The primary purpose of the invention is likely to be to dry male masturbation aids after use and cleaning. The opening of these soft plastic masturbators, intended for insertion of the erect penis, generally has a very small diameter to increase stimulation. This means that moisture remaining in the cavity after cleaning is difficult to wick away, and pathogens can easily multiply in the moist environment. The stands included with some masturbators resemble small table flagpoles, but the solid "flagpole" further reduces the size of the opening of the sex toy, thereby exacerbating the problem. Research among relevant suppliers and in the DPMA databases revealed that no one had yet addressed the issue, which is why the solution underlying the patent claim was developed.Especially in the version with a grid-like structure of the functional area (as shown in the drawing), the drying process is significantly accelerated thanks to the minimized contact surface and maximized ventilation.

Claims

[1] The claim relates to a device belonging to everyday life, with which an elongated hollow body provided with an opening on at least one end face can be dried and also stored. The device is characterized by Due to its design features, even objects made of elastic material with a small inner diameter (such as male masturbation aids) to be dried, sufficient air circulation is ensured to ensure the drying process. To accelerate the drying process, an optional device for active ventilation can be integrated into the device. The device includes a base (of any geometry) at the lower end and, if desired, a body at the upper end as an insertion aid, although this is not mandatory. The middle piece, the actual functional part, consists of a tubular body whose surface is shaped either as a grid of any geometry or as a perforated tube. The cavity inside the body and the openings, which provide air circulation and moisture removal, are crucial for its function. [2] The claim relates to a device belonging to everyday life needs, with which an elongated hollow body provided with an opening on at least one end face can be dried and also stored.

To accelerate the drying process, an optional device for active ventilation can be integrated into the device. The device includes a base (of any geometry) at the lower end and, if desired, a body at the upper end as an insertion aid, although this is not mandatory. The middle piece, the actual functional part, consists of a tubular body whose surface is made up of rods that connect the base and the tip of the device. If no additional body is provided for the tip, the tip can also be formed by the connection of the rods. The cavity inside the body and the openings, which provide air circulation and moisture removal, are crucial for its function.
