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.

Claims (12)

1. A device for providing sexual stimulation, comprising:

a housing;

a shaft, the shaft at least partially extending from the housing, the shaft removably receiving at least one attachment, the at least one attachment including at least eight paddles exterior to the housing, the at least eight paddles including four paddles having a bend in a first direction and four paddles having a bend in a direction opposite to the first direction, the four paddles having a bend in the first direction interleaved with the four paddles having a bend in the direction opposite to the first direction, the shaft defining an axis about which the at least one attachment rotates;

a motor contained by the housing, the motor rotatably coupled with the shaft

a power source at least partially contained by the housing, the power source configured to provide power to at least the motor;

a user interface including at least one control disposed on the housing, the at least one control configured to receive a rotational speed for the shaft; and

a control unit operable to control the motor at least partially responsive to input acceptable via the at least one control configured to receive a rotational speed for the shaft.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the at least eight paddles is at least one flexible paddle configured for being at least partially displaceable upon a contact with an external surface of the at least one flexible paddle.

3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the at least eight paddles are configured for simulating movement of a tongue.

4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the at least eight paddles are configured for simulating movement of a tongue in which a first paddle is configured for striking from a concave side of the bend in the first direction and a successive paddle is configured for striking from a convex side of the bend in a direction opposite the first direction.

5. The device of claim 1 , wherein at least one paddle includes at least a width of no more than one inch and a length of no more than one inch.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein at least one paddle includes at least a thickness of no more than one quarter of an inch.
