Adjustable sphincter exerciser
View Patent ↗An adjustable sphincter exerciser (Kegel exercise) includes a flexible tubular member, at least one sleeve mounted to the tubular member; a body inserted into the tubular member, a conductive device connected to the body and located in the tubular member, the conductive device being activated when the tubular member is compressed, a vibration unit electrically connected to the conductive device, and a power unit providing power to the conductive device and the vibration unit. The at least one sleeve can be replaced and has different hardness, when the user squeezes the at least one sleeve and the tubular member to activate the conductive device and the vibration unit, the user is acknowledged the force that sphincter is exercised. The adjustable sphincter exerciser (Kegel exercise) enhances the muscular strength and the muscular endurance of the sphincter.
1. An adjustable sphincter exerciser comprising:
a flexible tubular member;
a plurality of sleeves of different flexibilities adapted to be interchangeably, removably mounted to the tubular member;
a body connected to the tubular member;
a conductive device located in the tubular member and being activated when the tubular member is compressed wherein the conductive device includes a metal portion and at least one conductive plate, the metal portion is connected to a post of the body and the at least one conductive plate is connected to the body, the at least one conductive plate includes a bent portion which is located close to the metal portion such that pressure on the tubular member causes the at least one conductive plate to contact the metal portion to form a conductive loop;
a vibration unit electrically connected to the conductive device which drives the vibration unit, and
a power unit providing power to the conductive device and the vibration unit.
2. The adjustable sphincter exerciser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the tubular member including multiple protrusions and the at least one sleeve has holes through which the protrusions extend.
3. The adjustable sphincter exerciser as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a circuit board connected to the body and includes an audio circuit and a speaker which is activated by the audio circuit to generate audio sound.
4. The adjustable sphincter exerciser as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the circuit board includes a switch for activating the audio circuit.
5. The adjustable sphincter exerciser as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the body includes an end cap which has an aperture and a button extends through the aperture, the button is pressed to touch the switch.
6. The adjustable sphincter exerciser as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a flexible plate seals the aperture to protect the button.
