Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional sex toys for genital stimulation are often unhygienic, complex, and not designed to accommodate the diverse physiologies of users, leading to irritations and unsatisfactory sexual pleasure, particularly for female users who require stimulation of multiple erogenous zones.

Innovation Solution

A massaging device with a phallic-shaped configuration featuring two stimulating members coupled via a drive mechanism and actuator, allowing for various stimulation modes and easy cleaning, designed to provide simultaneous clitoral and vaginal stimulation using materials safe for human skin.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If conventional sex toys are used for genital stimulation, then sexual pleasure can be obtained, but hygiene issues arise due to complex structures with blind spots that are difficult to clean

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of cleaningVSAvoiddevice complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The massaging device is divided into a first stimulating member and a second stimulating member that can be detached from each other. The first stimulating member has a distal portion that can be separated from the proximal portion, allowing complete disassembly for thorough cleaning of all surfaces including previously inaccessible areas.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The actuator and drive mechanism are extracted into a separate second stimulating member that can be detached from the first stimulating member. This separation removes complex mechanical components with potential blind spots from the main stimulation area, enabling complete cleaning of the first stimulating member's surfaces.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Ease of operation

If vacuum pumps with valves are used for clitoral stimulation, then sexual pleasure can be obtained, but hygiene issues arise due to blind spots in valves that are difficult to clean

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of cleaningVSAvoidhygiene-related issues
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The valve and ventilation components are completely removed from the massaging device. Instead of using a vacuum pump system, the device employs a drive member with arms and retainer members that create stimulation through mechanical motion only, eliminating all valve-related blind spots and hygiene concerns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

Solution Approach 2:

The vacuum pump mechanical system is replaced with a simpler drive member system consisting of arms and retainer members that create stimulation through controlled mechanical motion. This substitution eliminates complex valves and ventilation components that create cleaning blind spots.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Adaptability or versatility

If sex toys with vibration features are used for enhancing stimulation, then sexual pleasure can be obtained, but skin irritations or inflammations occur in the genital area

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestimulation capabilityVSAvoidskin irritations
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The device provides stimulation through controlled mechanical motion parameters of the drive member arms and retainer members rather than high-frequency vibration. The motion can be adjusted in speed, amplitude, and pattern to provide effective stimulation while avoiding the skin irritations associated with intense vibration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The drive member system creates dynamic stimulation through controlled mechanical motion that adapts to user needs. The arms and retainer members move in coordinated patterns that provide varied stimulation without the harsh effects of continuous high-frequency vibration, reducing skin irritation risk.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

4Ease of operation

If simple phallic-shaped sex toys are used for masturbation, then ease of use is improved, but the stimulation is fairly limited and not designed to accommodate different physiologies

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of useVSAvoidstimulation versatility
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The massaging device combines multiple stimulation functions in one unit: the first stimulating member can stimulate the clitoral region while the second stimulating member stimulates the vaginal area. The drive member system provides multiple motion patterns that can accommodate different user physiologies and preferences, maintaining ease of use while significantly increasing versatility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The device merges clitoral stimulation and vaginal stimulation capabilities into a single coordinated system. The first and second stimulating members work together through the drive member mechanism to provide comprehensive stimulation that accommodates different user needs while maintaining simple operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

AI summary

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a massaging device. The massaging device includes a first stimulating member and a second stimulating member. The second stimulating member includes a drive member. The drive member includes a first arm configured with a retainer member and a second arm. The retainer member is secured to a first limiting member of the first stimulating member to couple the first stimulating member and the second stimulating member. Further, the massaging device includes an actuator positioned in the second stimulating member and operatively coupled to the drive member. The actuator is configured to induce a rotary motion to the drive member for operating at least the first stimulating member and the second stimulating member in a plurality of stimulation modes. The first and second stimulating members operable in the plurality of stimulation modes induce sexual stimulation to the erogenous zones of a user.
