  • Patent number: 6209543
    Abstract: A reliable male condom that is roughly tubular and that has one open end and one closed end and that applies to the purposes of disease prevention and birth control. A fitted scrotal sac extends downward from the bottom portion of the open end and extends partly up the shaft. A restraining strap, optionally attached and with fixable ends, is wrapped around the periphery of the open end, guided by a finishing lip or band, in order to secure the scrotum within the scrotal sac and also to anchor the condom during use. For increased stability, an optional restrictive band is also provided. In a modified form, the scrotal sac is semi-fitted to the scrotum, and in another form, the scrotal sac is unfitted, and the restrictive band is not provided. All forms provide an optional reservoir tip.
