Combination condom and personal lubricant container
View Patent ↗The present invention comprises articles of manufacture including a disposable condom and personal container 10 comprising a condom compartment 20 enclosing one or more condoms immersed in either a personal lubricant or sexually stimulating lubricant removably adjoined to at least one lubricant compartment 30 . The compartments are constructed of a packaging material comprising properties that conduct heat and hermetically sealed. The condom compartment 20 comprises a seal 25, 28, 29 positioned on the top wall 21 that is removed or opened for the purpose of gaining access to the contents. The seal 28, 29 may be reattached or closed. The personal lubricant compartment 30 comprises a discharge element 43 through which the contents of the compartment are discharged by activating a removable dispenser that fits within the element 43 . Prior to discharging the contents, a protective seal 45 enclosed within the element 43 is ruptured. The contents of the compartments 20, 30 may be heated by a device in which the compartments are seated. The temperature of the contents may be monitored with the aid of a temperature sensing aid 14 . The container 10 comprises perforations 12 used to detach the compartments. The primary object of the invention is to encourage the use of condoms in sexual activities thereby reducing the spread of disease, including the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which may result in AIDS, and reducing the risk of pregnancy.
