Solution Overview

Problem

Existing prostate massage devices often fail to provide optimal stimulation due to their inability to accommodate various body types and lack of adjustable positioning, requiring users to manually maneuver them for effective prostate massage.

Innovation Solution

A prostate massager with a bendable metal arm connecting two sections, allowing for adjustable angles and positions, and embedded vibrating units operable via a rechargeable power source and control switch, with optional remote operation through a connected device.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If a fixed rigid structure is used for prostate massagers, then manufacturing is simple and device complexity is low, but the device cannot accommodate various body types and cannot be adjusted to optimize prostate stimulation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadaptability to various body typesVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The massager incorporates a flexible section with multiple segments that can bend and adjust to different angles, transforming the device from a rigid fixed structure to a dynamic adaptable form that conforms to various anatomical shapes while maintaining manageable complexity through modular segmentation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The massager is divided into distinct segments including a flexible section with multiple bendable joints, allowing each segment to be independently positioned to accommodate different body types and anatomical variations without requiring complete redesign of the entire device

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Adaptability or versatility

If a bendable structure with multiple sections is used, then adaptability to various body types is improved, but device complexity and manufacturing difficulty increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadjustable positioning capabilityVSAvoidease of manufacture
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The flexible section utilizes flexible materials and thin-walled structures that can be bent and shaped without requiring complex mechanical joints or fasteners, enabling adjustable positioning while simplifying manufacturing through material properties rather than mechanical complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

Solution Approach 2:

The bendable structure employs materials and design that allow dynamic shaping during use without requiring complex assembly procedures, making the device adaptable to various body types while maintaining ease of manufacture through material flexibility rather than mechanical complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

3Length of moving object

If traditional prostate massagers are used, then the device structure is simple, but the massager cannot reach the prostate gland effectively for optimal stimulation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelength to reach prostateVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Length of moving objectVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The massager is divided into a long insertion section with multiple flexible segments that can be independently positioned, allowing the distal end to reach the prostate gland while keeping each individual segment manageable in size and complexity for manufacturing and handling

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

Disclosed is a prostate massager that includes a first section connected to a second section. The first section can bend relative to the second section at various angles to optimize prostate stimulation. Each of the first section and the second section includes a vibrating unit that can facilitate massaging. The vibrating unit can be controlled via a control switch that is operatively connected to a printed circuit board. The printed circuit board can include a network interface for connecting the massager to an external user device to remotely control the massager.
