Abstract

Stimulation devices and methods of use are described herein. An example stimulation device configured to stimulate a portion of a body of a user comprises a housing that includes a casing and a covering. The casing includes a nozzle, a motor disposed within the casing configured to generate stimulation patterns, a drive shaft connected to the motor, a sensor configured to detect changes in the rotation of the draft shaft, a controller, and a battery. The covering covers a portion of the casing.

Claims (36)

1. A stimulation device configured to stimulate a portion of a body of a user, comprising:

a housing having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, a nozzle, and a silicone covering, the silicone covering disposed such that it covers a portion of the first end and a portion of the second end, the housing defining a chamber having a first opening configured to receive said portion of said body, the chamber having a chamber surface that is defined by the silicone covering;

a motor disposed within the housing and configured to generate a stimulation pattern, the motor configured to transmit the stimulation pattern into the chamber;

a controller disposed within the housing and configured to control the motor; and

a battery disposed within the housing configured to provide power to the motor and the controller.

2. The stimulation device of claim 1 , wherein the silicone covering comprises a single piece.

3. The stimulation device of claim 2 , wherein the chamber surface can extend between one and twenty millimeters towards or away from the first opening when the motor is activated.

4. The stimulation device of claim 1 , wherein the controller contains pre-set stimulation patterns that may be communicated to the motor.

5. The stimulation device of claim 4 , wherein the user interacts with the controller to choose stimulation patterns through a set of control buttons.

6. The stimulation device of claim 5 , wherein the housing is waterproof.

7. The stimulation device of claim 6 , wherein the chamber comprises a proximal end and a middle portion; and

wherein a diameter of the middle portion is greater than a diameter of the proximal end.

8. The stimulation device of claim 7 , wherein the housing is comprised of a casing; and

wherein the casing comprises at least a first piece, a second piece, a third piece, and a fourth piece.

9. The stimulation device of claim 8 , wherein the first piece, the second piece, the third piece, and the fourth piece are comprised of plastic.

10. The stimulation device of claim 9 , wherein the covering is disposed adjacent the first piece, the second piece, and the third piece.

11. The stimulation device of claim 10 , wherein the housing is curved along its length and forms an ergonomic shape.

12. A stimulation device configured to stimulate a portion of a body of a user, comprising:

a housing having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, a nozzle defined by the first end, and a silicone covering, the silicone covering disposed such that it covers a portion of the first end and a portion of the second end, the housing defining a chamber having a first opening configured to receive said portion of said body, the nozzle having a base defining a groove disposed adjacent the chamber, the chamber having a chamber surface that is defined by the silicone covering, the chamber surface being capable of moving toward and away from the first opening when in use;

a motor disposed within the housing and configured to generate a stimulation pattern, the motor configured to transmit the stimulation pattern into the chamber;

a controller disposed within the housing and configured to control the motor; and

a battery disposed within the housing configured to provide power to the motor and the controller.

13. The stimulation device of claim 12 , wherein no portion of the housing that defines the chamber is removeable or replaceable.

14. The stimulation device of claim 13 , wherein no portion of the silicone covering is removeable or replaceable.

15. The stimulation device of claim 12 , wherein the first opening has a first diameter of between five millimeters and thirty millimeters.

16. The stimulation device of claim 15 , wherein the chamber defines a second diameter at the widest portion of the chamber; and

wherein a second diameter is between five millimeters and thirty millimeters.

17. The stimulation device of claim 16 , wherein the chamber defines a depth extending from the first opening to the base of the nozzle; and

wherein the depth is between five millimeters and fifty millimeters.

18. The stimulation device of claim 12 , wherein the motor comprises a drive shaft.

19. The stimulation device of claim 12 , wherein the chamber surface can extend between one and twenty millimeters towards or away from the first opening when the motor is activated.

20. A stimulation device configured to stimulate a portion of a body of a user, comprising:

a housing having a first end, a second end opposite the first end, a nozzle defined by the first end, and a silicone covering, the silicone covering disposed such that it covers a portion of the first end and a portion of the second end, the housing defining a chamber having a first opening configured to receive said portion of said body, the nozzle having a base defining a groove disposed adjacent the chamber, the chamber having a chamber surface that is entirely defined by the silicone covering, the chamber surface being capable of moving toward and away from the first opening when in use;

a motor disposed within the housing and configured to generate a stimulation pattern, the motor configured to transmit the stimulation pattern into the chamber;

a controller disposed within the housing and configured to control the motor; and

a battery disposed within the housing configured to provide power to the motor and the controller.
