DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] While the presently disclosed inventive concept(s) is(are) susceptible to various modifications and alternative constructions, certain illustrated embodiments thereof have been shown in the drawings and will be described below in detail. It should be understood, however, that there is no intention to limit the inventive concept(s) to the specific form disclosed, but, on the contrary, the presently disclosed and claimed inventive concept(s) is(are) to cover all modifications, alternative constructions, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the inventive concept(s), as defined herein.

[0023] In the following description, and in the figures, like elements are identified with like reference numerals. The use of e.g., etc, and or indicates non-exclusive alternatives without limitation, unless otherwise noted. The use of including means including, but not limited to, unless otherwise noted.

[0024] FIGS. 1 through 12 illustrate a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. In the illustrated preferred embodiment, the device includes a base 10. The base 10 generally has an elliptical shape. However, a rectangular shape or any other shape can be used that comports with the inventive concepts disclosed herein. The base 10 has a ring 14 defining an opening 12 near the first end 13 of the base. An average width of the opening 12 is about 1 inches. The ring can be constructed using materials of various elasticizes to accommodate the wearer's different penis or phallic dimensions. The ring 14 around the opening 12 is configured to be placed around the penis or phallic device of the wearer, and is generally constructed of an elastic material to allow for a comfortable attachment to the wearer. This elastic material also allows the ring 14 to stretch to accommodate larger items inserted into the opening 12, specifically to accommodate penises or phallic devices with a larger circumference.

[0025] The base includes a raised area 16 that generally extends from the ring 14 to the opposing (second) end 18 of the base 10. A base flange 30 extends outward from the raised area as to provide further stability and/or friction contact area on the wearer.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the base 10 is of a length so as when the ring 14 is placed on a male's penis or other phallic type projection, the raised area 16 is positioned over the wearer's pubic bone and pelvic area. The raised area 16 is configured so as to correspond to the general shape and length of the female genitalia. The raised area 16 is preferably constructed of an elastic material that can be compressed and regain its shape after the compression force is removed, such as silicone, latex, rubber, plastic, or rubbers and plastics containing phthalates. This raised area 16 provides padding and protection for the wearer of the device and provides compression and enhanced stimulation to the wearer's partner.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a tab 22 is attached to the first end 13 of the sexual aid and protective device 8, proximate to the ring 14. The tab 22 acts as a handle for the wearer to grab to remove the ring 14 from the wearer's penis or phallic device. The tab 22 also acts as a perineum tickler for the wearer's partner. The tab can be in a variety of shapes and/or sizes.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the raised area includes a plurality of ribbed projections 20. In alternate embodiments, the raised area 16 can include surface texture to provide further friction between the raised area 16 of the device and the genitals of the wearer's partner, including, but not limited to, being textured. In alternate embodiments, the device can include a vibrating mechanism for providing vibrations to the device.

[0029] FIG. 4 is a top view of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. The depicted plurality of ribbed projections 20 are preferably different lengths, decreasing in length the farther the plurality of ribbed projections 20 are from the center of the raised area 16.

[0030] FIG. 3 illustrates the bottom of the sexual aid and protective device 8. In a preferred embodiment, the bottom side of the raised area 16 is concave to create a cavity 24 from the base 10 to provide a suction effect when in use. The base flange 30 encircles the cavity 24 to provide structural support. In alternate embodiments, the raised area 16 can be solid and the base 10 can span the entirety of the bottom of the sexual aid and protective device 8.

[0031] FIG. 5 is a side view of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. In a preferred embodiment, the base 10 is generally planar and preferably has a hollow cavity as shown in FIG. 6.

[0032] FIG. 6 is a bottom view of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. FIG. 6 depicts the hollow cavity 24 that extends through the base 10 and extends into the raised area 16.

[0033] FIG. 7 is one end view of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. FIG. 7 illustrates the height of the various sections of the device.

[0034] FIG. 8 is another end view of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. FIG. 8 illustrates the height of the various sections of the device.

[0035] FIG. 9 is a side view of a longitudinal cross section along line 9 depicted in FIG. 4 of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8. The longitudinal cross section is through the base 10, the raised area 16, the ring 14, and the tab 22.

[0036] FIG. 10 is an end view of the ring 14 cross section along line 10 depicted in FIG. 4 of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8.

[0037] FIG. 11 is an end view of the ring 14 cross section along line 11 depicted in FIG. 4 of a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8.

[0038] FIG. 12 is an end view along line 12 cross section depicted in FIG. 4 of the raised area 16 in a preferred embodiment of the sexual aid and protective device 8.

[0039] The device can be made utilizing a variety of techniques including, 3D printing, injection molding, silicone molding, or any other known or future technology.

[0040] While certain exemplary embodiments are shown in the Figures and described in this disclosure, it is to be distinctly understood that the presently disclosed inventive concept(s) is(are) not limited thereto, but may be variously embodied to practice within the scope of this disclosure. From the foregoing description, it will be apparent that various changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure as defined herein.
