  • Patent number: 6482147
    Abstract: A sexual aid device substantially the size and shape of an adult male penis. The device has a head portion, an elongated shaft, and a base portion. The device also has an outer covering that is constructed from a resilient material to simulate the look and feel of an erect adult penis. A magnetic element is housed within the device, within its cavity. The magnet is cylindrical in shape, one piece, and extends continuously substantially from the head portion downward to the base. Since it lies below the outer covering, the magnet would never come into direct contact with any portion of the human body. The actual thickness of the outer covering should be minimized while maintaining sufficient thickness to ensure comfort for the user.
