Solution Overview

Problem

Existing methods for achieving and maintaining a penis erection, especially in cases of erectile dysfunction or severe physical and psychological conditions, are often inadequate, with vibrator devices being cumbersome and chemical interventions causing side effects.

Innovation Solution

A penis ring with multiple small DC motor-driven vibrator units and an electronic control circuit that provides a sequential pulsation of mechanical vibrations to enhance blood flow to the penis, combined with optional piezo foil strips for increased efficacy, and a sensor system to adjust the vibration intensity based on user heart rate and erection strength.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If a vibrator plate is used to achieve erection, then mechanical stimulation can be provided, but the device becomes unnecessarily large and difficult to handle

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of handlingVSAvoiddevice size
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The vibrator is divided into multiple independent vibration units (first, second, third vibration units) that can be distributed along the penis, allowing the overall system to be compact while providing comprehensive coverage and stimulation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The vibration units are arranged in a spatial distribution along the longitudinal axis of the penis rather than concentrating all vibration capability in a single large unit, effectively utilizing the dimensional space available

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If chemical stimulation through injection or tablets is used to achieve erection, then erection can be achieved in severe cases, but pain and significant side effects occur

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveerection achievementVSAvoidside effects and pain
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The invention uses mechanical vibration from multiple vibration units to stimulate blood flow and achieve erection, providing a non-chemical alternative that avoids the side effects and pain associated with injections and tablets while maintaining reliability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #18Mechanical vibration

Solution Approach 2:

The invention replaces chemical stimulation methods (injections and tablets) with a mechanical vibration-based system, substituting one form of stimulation (chemical) with another (mechanical) that has fewer harmful effects

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

3Reliability

If a penis ring with vibrator motor is used to maintain erection, then blood backflow is prevented, but the device lacks the function of stimulating blood flow to the penis

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveerection maintenanceVSAvoidblood flow stimulation function
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The penis ring is designed to perform multiple functions: it maintains erection by preventing blood backflow through its ring structure, and simultaneously stimulates blood flow to the penis through multiple vibration units, making it a versatile device that combines both functions

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

Solution Approach 2:

The invention merges the blood flow stimulation function (through vibration units) with the blood backflow prevention function (through the ring structure) into a single integrated device, allowing both functions to work together synergistically

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

4Reliability

If sequential pulsation of vibrations is applied to stimulate blood flow, then erection enhancement is achieved, but more complex control circuits are required

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveerection enhancementVSAvoidcontrol circuit complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The control circuit implements sequential pulsation by activating vibration units in a periodic sequence (first unit, then second unit, then third unit, and repeating), creating rhythmic stimulation patterns that enhance blood flow while using simple timing control rather than complex algorithms

Inventive Principle:
Principle #19Periodic action

AI summary

A means for achieving enhanced erection includes a mounting attachment (10) to be placed onto the penis, e.g. in the form of a penis ring of a substantially elastic material. On the mounting attachment (10), one or more rows (14) of miniature vibrator motors (8 ABC) is/are provided, each row comprising at least three motors. For sequential pulsating operation of the motors (8 ABC) of the row(s) (14), an electric power supply arrangement (7) and an electronic control circuit (9) are provided. The control circuit (9) and the power supply arrangement (7) may be positioned on the mounting attachment (10). In one embodiment, piezoelectric foil strips (15 abc) are located underneath the vibrator motors (8 ABC) and are operated in a controlled relation to the motor operation for generating mechanical vibrations with a frequency that is higher than the frequency of the vibrator motors.
