Solution Overview

Problem

Existing male sexual stimulation devices lack optimal stimulation, fail to contain bodily fluids, and offer limited user control over speed, pattern, and location of stimulation, leading to non-ideal user experiences and potential health and safety hazards.

Innovation Solution

A linear motion male sexual stimulation device with an axial reciprocal linear motion driver, a flexible sleeve, and a gripper that provides controlled linear stroking motion, allowing user control over speed, pattern, and location of stimulation while containing the penis and bodily fluids within the device, utilizing various linear motion mechanisms such as threaded ball screws, belt-driven actuators, and magnetic grippers.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If manual sheath mechanisms are used, then the device is simple in structure, but the stimulation is non-ideal and lacks user control over speed, pattern, and location

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser control over stimulationVSAvoiddevice structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces manual mechanical operation with an automated linear motion driver that uses a ball screw mechanism to convert rotational motion into precise linear reciprocating motion. This allows computer-controlled automation while maintaining a relatively simple mechanical structure, enabling user control over speed, pattern, and location without requiring complex manual manipulation mechanisms.

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

Solution Approach 2:

The device incorporates a dynamically adjustable linear motion system that can vary its reciprocating motion parameters (speed, amplitude, frequency) during operation. The ball screw mechanism allows for dynamic control of the gripper's linear motion along the penis, enabling customizable stimulation patterns while keeping the overall device structure relatively simple.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Reliability

If vibration mechanisms are used, then the device provides stimulation, but it cannot contain bodily fluids and may cause release

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefluid containmentVSAvoidstimulation quality
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs a flexible sleeve that completely encloses the penis during stimulation. This flexible shell structure effectively contains bodily fluids while still allowing the transmission of mechanical stimulation forces to the penis surface, resolving the contradiction between fluid containment and stimulation quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

3Adaptability or versatility

If suction mechanisms are used, then the device provides stimulation, but it lacks user control over speed, pattern, and location of stimulation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecustomization of stimulationVSAvoidcontrol mechanism
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent replaces complex suction control mechanisms with a simpler linear reciprocating motion system driven by a ball screw. The automation of this linear motion provides programmable control over speed, pattern, and location without requiring complex real-time user intervention or sophisticated control algorithms, thus achieving adaptability with moderate device complexity.

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

4Ease of operation

If constriction mechanisms are used, then the device provides stimulation, but it may cause release of bodily fluids and lacks user control

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser control over stimulationVSAvoidbodily fluid release
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The flexible enclosing sleeve acts as a containment barrier that prevents bodily fluid release while the linear reciprocating motion mechanism provides controlled stimulation through the sleeve. This combination allows user control over stimulation parameters without the harmful effect of fluid release that plagues constriction mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

5Reliability

If direct electrical stimulation mechanisms are used, then the device provides stimulation, but it cannot contain bodily fluids and lacks realistic stimulation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefluid containmentVSAvoidstimulation realism
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The flexible enclosing sleeve provides complete fluid containment while the system applies mechanical linear reciprocating motion through the sleeve to achieve realistic stimulation. This mechanical approach through the flexible barrier maintains both fluid containment reliability and stimulation realism, avoiding the limitations of electrical stimulation methods.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

AI summary

An electromechanical device for male sexual stimulation that uses a reciprocal linear motion similar to sexual intercourse, and wherein the penis remains fully inserted during use. The reciprocal linear motion is generated by a small motor which drives a screw and nut mechanism, to which a bracket and gripper is attached. Inserted into the gripper is a flexible sleeve. A penis may be inserted into the device inside the flexible sleeve. The movement of the gripper and sleeve against the penis provides pressure and motion against the penis inside the sleeve in a manner similar to sexual intercourse. The speed, pattern, and location of the motion can be controlled by the user through controls on the outside of the device.
