Solution Overview

Problem

Existing devices for male sexual dysfunction fail to maintain a consistent erection state and cause discomfort, leading to integration issues with the penis and partner, and often require tightening mechanisms that are not natural.

Innovation Solution

A two-layer device with a hard sack simulating an erect penis covered in silicone rubber, featuring an air vent hole at the front end and a deviated air vent hole in the soft skin, allowing air discharge and preventing outside air entry, providing a valve function for negative pressure application without the need for belts or tightening.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Shape

If a sack-like device is used to simulate an erect penis, then the appearance is improved, but the device easily falls out and causes discomfort

Engineering Contradiction:
ImproveappearanceVSAvoidstability
Core Design Contradiction:
ShapeVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies negative pressure suction through a pump to create a vacuum state within the device chamber, which firmly holds the penis in place and prevents the device from falling off. The air vent hole with valve mechanism controls the negative pressure state, allowing the device to maintain stable attachment while preserving the simulated erect appearance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #29Pneumatics and hydraulics

2Shape

If tightening devices are used to achieve erection state, then the erection effect is improved, but the integration with the penis is poor and causes discomfort

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveerection stateVSAvoidintegration
Core Design Contradiction:
ShapeVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of mechanical tightening, the patent uses negative pressure suction to create a vacuum state that naturally draws and holds the penis in the desired erection position. This pneumatic approach eliminates the need for uncomfortable tightening mechanisms while maintaining good integration with the penis body.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #29Pneumatics and hydraulics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the pressure parameter within the device chamber from atmospheric pressure to negative pressure (vacuum state). This parameter change creates a suction force that naturally secures the device to the penis without requiring mechanical tightening, thereby improving integration and reducing discomfort.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

3Extent of automation

If the air vent hole is positioned at the front end of the hard sack, then the valve function is improved, but air may enter from the outside

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevalve functionVSAvoidoutside air entry
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent positions the air vent hole asymmetrically at the front end of the hard sack rather than at the center or rear. This asymmetric positioning, combined with the valve mechanism, allows controlled air discharge while the deviated position in the soft skin prevents outside air from entering, maintaining the negative pressure state.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #4Asymmetry

Solution Approach 2:

The soft skin acts as an intermediary element with a deviated air vent hole that works in conjunction with the hard sack's air vent hole. This intermediary structure allows the valve function to operate while blocking outside air entry through the deviated position, preventing harmful air infiltration.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Applied Scientific Principles

This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.

Function Achieved in This Case

The device maintains integration with the penis and reduces discomfort, allowing for natural sexual activity without the need for manual tightening, enhancing the experience for both users.

Implementation Method 1

a hard sack with a shape that simulates an erect penis of a man into which a penis is inserted; and a soft skin made of a silicone rubber that covers the entire outside of the hard sack, by arranging an air vent hole at a front end of the hard sack, and by also arranging an air vent hole at a position that is slightly deviated from the air vent hole at the front end of the soft skin, the device added with a valve function in which while air in the hard sack is discharged to the outside through the air vent hole arranged at the front end of the soft skin from the air vent hole arranged at the front end of the hard sack, the air vent hole arranged at the front end of the hard sack is closed by the soft skin to prevent entry of outside air in a state in which the interior of the hard sack is in a negative pressure
