  • Patent number: 5853362
    Abstract: An intravaginal glandular stimulator device is sized and shaped to be worn internally by a woman. That is, a predetermined hook shaped device constructed of sufficiently rigid material is provided so that the proximal end (52j) of the device rests in a vaginal subcavity (74f1) adjacent to the woman's Grafenberg Spot (71f1). The proximal end (52j) is shaped and angled to exert pressure against the Grafenberg Spot (71f1), and to resist dislodgement except by conscious muscular relaxation and manual pulling. The stimulator's extravaginal or distal end (50j) may be shaped like a dildo to be used for vaginally or anally penetrating a partner; shaped recumbently upon itself and used to stimulate the external genitalia of the wearer; or shaped as a handle to be manipulated by the wearer or by her partner. The proximal end (52j) may extend into the vaginal cavity beyond the embedding hook (53j) which lodges in the Grafenberg spot (71f1), and thus function additionally as a dildo.

  • Patent number: 4841965
    Abstract: A head-immobilizing device for holding a patient's head, or other part of a patient's anatomy, rigidly for tomographic diagnosis or treatment comprises a head cradle having a base portion (10) and an upwardly-extending boss (12) with a concave portion (20) in the center thereof. The concave portion has a plurality of holes (22) therein and a chamber (24) thereunder. A vacuum hose (38,40,46) is in communication with the chamber. The upper rim of the cradle has a resilient sealing ring (14). A patient's head may be placed in the cradle and the chamber partially evacuated, whereby the patient's head can be held against the rim by the vacuum. A repositioning device can be used to obtain the patient's position so that the patient can be repositioned for a later treatment or diagnosis. The repositioning device comprises a mouthpiece (60) which can be unambiguously attached to the patient's head and an adjustable level (52) which can be attached to the mouthpiece in an unambiguous manner.
