  • Patent number: 9226871
    Abstract: A handheld device for providing sexual stimulation includes a plurality of paddles contained by an attachment which can be mounted on a shaft driven by a motor of the device. Different attachments may have different numbers of paddles, and the paddles may be placed differently on different attachments or may have different shapes, among other variations in the paddles. The device is battery-operated, and a charging connection through the device housing is offered through a septum, providing a water-resistant enclosure.

  • Publication number: 20140243591
    Abstract: This invention relates generally to mechanics, and more specifically, to systems and methods for providing sexual stimulation. In some embodiments, the invention includes a method including applying a device to a part of the body; setting a desired rotational speed for the device; and holding the device more firmly against the part of the body as desired for more pressure. In other embodiments, the invention includes a method including receiving a desired rotational speed, receiving a current pressure value, adjusting the current rotational speed 206, and sending a rotational speed. In other embodiments, the invention includes a system for providing sexual stimulation, including a user interface, a pressure sensor, a power source, a charging mechanism, a control unit, and a motor. In other embodiments, the invention includes a system for providing sexual stimulation, including a housing, a user interface, a power supply, a motor, a housed shaft, and an attachment.

  • Patent number: 8734321
    Abstract: A handheld device for providing sexual stimulation includes a plurality of paddles contained by an attachment which can be mounted on a shaft driven by a motor of the device. Control logic of the device ensures that a rotational speed for the device selected via the device's user interface is maintained even when the device is held against a part of a human body. That is, resistance from holding the device against a body part is accounted for, inasmuch as the device senses the resistance and adjusts the motor to maintain the desired rotational speed through the resistance. Different attachments may have different numbers of paddles, and the paddles may be placed differently on different attachments or may have different shapes, among other variations in the paddles. The device is battery-operated, and a charging connection through the device housing is offered through a septum, providing a water-resistant enclosure.
