Abstract

The invention is a glans penis attachment condom referred to interchangeably as: "an abbreviated condom". The condom comprises a sperm fluid receptacle, a one-way valve system and at least one glans penis attachment component. The one way valve system comprises at least one anchoring support frame surrounding an orifice and at least one assembly of at least two pliable film components in each assembly. The pliable film components connect to the support frame in a configuration that enables the flow of sperm fluid through the one way valve in the direction from the glans penis towards the fluid receptacle, and blocks the flow of sperm fluid in the direction from the sperm fluid receptacle towards the glans penis. The sperm fluid receptacle and one-way valve system are connected and have a duct between them. At least one wrapped over attachment component reversibly attaches the connected sperm fluid receptacle and one-way valve system to the glans penis when the condom is deployed, forming a sperm-fluid tight-seal surrounding the of the urethral opening glans penis while leaving a duct between the urethral opening and the sperm fluid receptacle.

Description

GLANS PENIS ATTACHMENT CONDOM

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to a glans penis attachment condom, referred from herein interchangeably also as "an abbreviated condom". More specifically, the present invention relates to a glans penis attachment condom, having a receptacle and a oneway valve system for preventing leaks of sperm fluid.

[0003]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0004] The use of condoms as contraceptive devices and devices for prevention of transmitting diseases is well known from prior art. A "regular" condom is made of a waterproof, elastic, and durable material and comprises an elongated sleeve sealed at one end. Prior to deployment, a regular condom is tightly rolled-up and has a flat disk shape form. When deployed, a regular condom is applied to the tip of an erected penis and unrolled over it. Typically, the structure of a regular condom has a fluid receptacle space in the area of application near the urethral opening, for accepting and containing ejaculated sperm fluid.

[0005] When deployed, a regular condom covers at least some of the length of the erected penile shaft, forming a surrounding barrier that typically substantially reduces the sensitivity of the penile shaft, thus may cause a reduction in pleasure during sexual intercourse.

[0006] The use of a regular condom requires the penis to be continuously swelled and erected during the rolling of the condom over the penis and during the duration of sexual intercourse activities. If the penis is not sufficiently erected, a regular condom will not fit well when rolled on it and, if properly rolled on the penis and the erection is not sustained, the condom will dislodge during sexual intercourse. The disability of maintaining a continuous erection is often experienced by older men as well as by men with various medical and psychological problems. [0007] To overcome the problems associated with the use of regular condoms: reduction of pleasure during sexual intercourse and the requirement of a continuous sustainable erected penis during sexual intercourse, abbreviated, glans penis attached, condoms, have been introduced.

[0008] To minimize pregnancy and diseases transmittance, the preferred practice is to have all the ejaculated sperm fluid contained in a receptacle space within a condom. The term "sperm fluid" refers from herein to secreted fluids ejaculated from a penis in the course of sexual activities. The term "leak" refers in the present invention to sperm fluid that spills out from a condom periphery while being deployed. Since in an abbreviated condom only the glans penis or parts of the glans penis are covered by the protective separation layer of the condom material, there is an increased susceptibility of a leak occurrence.

[0009] Three US patents describing abbreviated condoms are presented:

US5,458,114 (Heir), US6,145,507 (Hardy) and US4,320,752 (Comparetto).

[0010] Both US5,458,114 and US6, 145,507 disclose a contraceptive and prophylactic attachment device having a dome shaped bowl which conforms to the shape of a portion of the penile glans surrounding the urethral orifice. In US5,458,114 The bowl has an aperture overlying the orifice which leads into a collapsed bladder contained within a protective retaining structure. During ejaculation, sperm flows through the aperture into the bladder expanding it and causing it to extrude itself through an expandable outlet in the retaining structure. US6, 145,507 discloses an abbreviated condom with a receptacle in the area of the glans penis. A spermicide is contained within the fluid receptacle by a spermicide-releasing membrane for release after application. In neither of the abbreviated condoms is there a mechanism that restricts the sperm fluid to stay in the condom after ejaculation.

[0011] US4,320,752 discloses an abbreviated condom with a receptacle that is kept in place over the glans penis by a network of strips and an elastic ring that fits behind the glans penis. The receptacle has in its structure "valvular flaps" that constitute a one way valve system. [0012] The present invention is an abbreviated, simple to apply and easy to remove, condom that provides both sexual pleasure while ensuring protection from leakages. The condom of the present invention is constructed of a one-way valve system connected at the entrance of a sealed receptacle for sperm fluid. The one-way valve system keeps the sperm fluid that has entered the receptacle from flowing out. The attachment to the glans penis is reversibly done by "wrapping over" attachment components constructed either as a "wrapping over" thin sheet or as a "capping ring", both made of soft and elastic material and both having attachment surfaces coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive material. In both cases, the connected receptacle and one way valve are substantially covered by a sheet of an elastic material that reaches all the way to an adhesive material coated section that reversibly attaches to the glans penis. The configuration of having a continuous cover sheet on the receptacle and one way valve substantially stabilizes the condom in place while reducing the friction forces that are applied on the condom from the surrounding, when deployed.

[0013] Optionally, in addition to having a "wrapping over" thin sheet or "capping ring" another attachment ring is utilized. Using two revisable attachment components provides additional stability-in place of the condom and provides protection from pregnancy and diseases.

[0014]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0015] The present invention is a glans penis attachment condom for application on a male sex organ, also referred to interchangeably as: "an abbreviated condom". The abbreviated condom comprises a sperm fluid receptacle, a one-way valve system and at least one glans penis attachment component. The one way valve system is constructed of at least one anchoring support frame surrounding an orifice and at least one assembly of at least two pliable film components in each assembly. The pliable film components connect to the support frame in a configuration that enables the flow of sperm fluid through the one way valve in the direction from the glans penis towards the fluid receptacle, and blocks the flow of sperm fluid in the direction from the sperm fluid receptacle towards the glans penis. [0016] The sperm fluid receptacle and one-way valve system are connected and have a duct between them. At least one attachment component wraps over and reversibly attaches the connected sperm fluid receptacle and one-way valve system to the glans penis when the condom is deployed, forming a sperm-fluid tight- seal surrounding the urethral opening of the glans penis while leaving a duct between the urethral opening and the sperm fluid receptacle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0039] The abbreviated condom of the present invention provides the user with the benefit of increased sexual pleasure and minimizes the risk of sperm fluid leaks during sexual intercourse. The abbreviated condom is constructed of a one-way valve system component connected to a sealed sperm fluid receptacle component with a duct between them. The connected receptacle and one-way valve system are connected to at least one attachment-component that reversibly attach, when the condom is deployed, to the glans penis of the sex organ of a male by a pressure sensitive adhesive material that is easy to apply and easy to remove. All components used in the making of an abbreviated condom of the present invention are made of medical grade materials that have been approved for direct contact with human skin. The materials used for making the structure of the abbreviated condom are soft and flexible such as, but not limited to, natural or synthetic rubber such as latex rubber and various soft plastic materials.

[0040] The attachment to the glans penis is reversibly done by "wrapping over" attachment components constructed either as a "wrapping over" thin sheet or as a "capping ring", both made of soft and elastic material and both having attachment surfaces coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive material.

[0041] In the wrapping over connected receptacle and one way valve are substantially covered by a sheet of an elastic material that reaches all the way to an adhesive material coated section that reversibly attaches to the glans penis. The configuration of having a continuous cover sheet on the receptacle and one way valve substantially stabilizes the condom in place while reducing the friction forces that are applied on the condom from the surrounding, when deployed.

[0042] Optionally, in addition to having a "wrapping over" thin sheet or a "capping ring" another attachment ring is utilized. Using two revisable attachment components, provides additional stability-in place of the condom and provides protection from pregnancy and diseases. Optionally, together with the thin sheet, a reversible attachment-ring coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive material is used. In another option, a second reversible attachment-ring component is used (instead of a thin sheet). The attachment-ring(s) form(s) a fluid tight sealing-ring around the urethral opening. Using two revisable attachment components provides additional stability-in-place of the condom and better protection from pregnancy and diseases.

[0043] Reference is currently made to Fig. 1, 2, which are pictorial illustrations of an embodiment of an abbreviated condom of the present invention:

[0044] Fig. 1 displays a crosscut schematic illustration of an embodiment of an abbreviated condom (50) of the present invention, deployed on a glans penis (22) of a male penis (12). Fig. 2 displays the embodiment of the abbreviated condom shown in Fig. 1, with the components of the abbreviated condom separated from each other.

[0045] Given now are explanations of the structure and the components of abbreviated condom (50): Receptacle (14) is a closed capsule structure for receiving and retaining ejaculated sperm fluid. The receptacle (14) has a concaved inner surface with an orifice typically, but not necessarily, at its center (orifice not shown) and a convex outer surface. Flat connecting ring (18), with an adhesive coating on both its sides, connects in a fixed-connection between receptacle (14) and ring (17) of one-way valve system (16) (shown in Fig. 7A).

[0046] The connection between the one way valve system (16) and the receptacle (14) by flat connecting ring (18) forms a continuous and open duct from and through the valve system, through the orifice and into the receptacle (shown in Fig. 8A).

[0047] When deploying abbreviated condom (50) of the present invention, a thin sheet (52), covered on one side by a pressure sensitive adhesive material that is easy to apply and easy to remove, wraps over receptacle (14) and connected one-way valve system (16) and is reversibly attached to the circumference of the glans penis (22). Adhesive sheet (52) is made of medically used sheets of tape, such as, but not limited to "Tegaderm", a product produced by the 3M company (see websites: http://www.3m.com and http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/3MSWC/Skin- Wound-Care/BrandsDirectory/Tegaderm/). Disposable sealing plate (28) is an optional component of abbreviated condom (50). Plate (28) is reversibly- attached to the bottom side ("sticky- side") of adhesive sheet (52) when abbreviated condom (50) is in a collapsed configuration, and is removed prior to deployment of the condom (shown in Fig. 11). Plate (28) keeps the adhesive material on sheet (52) from losing its "stickiness".

[0048] When wrapped over and attached, adhesive sheet (52) maintains one-way valve system (16) substantially tightly positioned over urethral opening (24). When sperm fluid is ejaculated from the urethral opening, it flows through one-way valve system (16) and into receptacle (14), from where it cannot exit. If some sperm fluid does not flow into receptacle (14) it is blocked from exiting the condom by the reversible attachment of adhesive sheet (52) to the glans penis (22). The attachment surfaces between sheet (52) and the glans penis (22) is designated in the Fig. as (15). Optionally, a second attachment between abbreviated condom (50) and the glans penis (22) is made by adding an attachment ring (20) to the structure of the condom, as explained in detail in reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4.

[0049] Reference is currently made to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 which are pictorial illustrations of a second embodiment of an abbreviated condom of the present invention.

[0050] Fig. 4 displays the embodiment of the abbreviated condom (10), shown in Fig. 3, with the components of the abbreviated condom separated from each other.

[0051] Given now are explanations of the structure and the components of abbreviated condom (10): In condom (10) the structure and connected configuration of receptacle (14) and of one-way valve system (16) are the same, as previously described in abbreviated condom (50), Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.

[0052] In the embodiment, shown in abbreviated condom (10), ring (20) is an attachment component that reversibly attaches condom (10) to the glans penis (22). Attachment ring (20), which has an adhesive coating on both its sides, connects in a fixed-connection between the bottom side of ring (17) of one-way valve system (16) (shown in Fig. 7A). To its other side, ring (20) attaches reversibly to the glans penis (22), around the circumference of the urethral opening (24), leaving an open duct between the urethral opening (24) and the glans penis (22). Ring (20) attaches to the glans penis (22) by a pressure sensitive adhesive material that is easy to apply and easy to remove. Capping ring (26), which (also) serves as a glans penis reversible attachment component, has a cylindrical shape, and is made of a stretchable and flexible material. Ring (26) has a "fattened loop" with an inward curved rim at its upper section. The ring, which is coated with pressure sensitive adhesive material on its inner side, wraps over and connects in a fixed-connection to receptacle (14), leaving an un-connected segment at the rim of the ring (26). The un-connected segment of ring (26) is coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive material that is easy to apply and easy to remove to and from the glans penis. When condom (10) is deployed, capping ring (26) is reversibly attaches by its rim segment to the glans penis (22), as shown in Fig. 3. The attachment of the surfaces of capping-ring (26) and the glans penis (22) is designated (15).

[0053] The reversible attachment of attachment ring (20), to the glans penis (22) forms a sperm-fluid tight-seal surrounding the urethral opening of the glans penis in "an inner" ring. The reversible attachment of capping-ring (26) to the glans penis (22) forms a sperm-fluid tight-seal "peripheral " attachment ring at the circumference of the attachment surfaces between the rim of the abbreviated condom of the present invention and the glans penis. The "inner" and "peripheral" attachment-rings stabilize and keep the condom in place and prevent any sperm fluid that did not enter the receptacle from leaking to the surrounding.

[0054] Alternatively to using wrap over capping ring (26) in embodiment (10) of the abbreviated condom of the present invention, an adhesive sheet (52) is used. When using adhesive sheet (52), connected receptacle (14) and one-way valve system (16) are wrapped over and adhesive sheet (52) is attached to the glans penis, as described for embodiment (10), shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. In the described configuration, attachment ring (20) forms an "inner" attachment-ring, sperm-fluid tight-seal, around the urethral opening of the glans penis, while the wrapped around the glans penis (22) adhesive sheet (52) forms a "peripheral" attachment-ring that stabilizes and keeps the condom in place. The "peripheral" ring prevents any sperm fluid that did not enter the receptacle and "escaped" from the "inner"-ring from leaking to the surrounding.

[0055] Reference is currently made to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, which are pictorial illustrations of a third embodiment of an abbreviated condom of the present invention:

[0056] The embodiment in schematic illustrations in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6 show an abbreviated condom (36) of the present invention, that is different from embodiment (10) shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 by the use of a receptacle (38) that is not a closed capsule receptacle (14) with an orifice. In the present embodiment, receptacle (38) has a bowl structure shape that is sealed by connecting to one-way valve system (16). Connecting flat-ring (18) has adhesive coating on both its sides and connects in a fixed-connection between receptacle (38) and ring (17) of valve system (16), shown in Fig. 7A. All the other components of embodiment (36) of the abbreviated condom of the present invention are the same as those described previously, in embodiment (10) of the abbreviated condom of the present invention.

[0057] Reference is currently made to the one-way valve system used in the abbreviated condom of the present invention. The one-way valve system in the present invention is a structured assembly of pliable film components made of soft materials such as, but not limited to, natural or synthetic rubber such as latex rubber and of various soft plastic materials. In a relaxed state, with no fluid pressure exerted on the one way valve system, the assembly of film components compact into a tight and compressed configuration. The compressed configuration is loosened when liquid pressure is exerted on the film components from one direction, enabling the flow of fluid through the valve. When the pressure of fluid is exerted on film components from the other flow-direction, the film components re-compact in a water tight and compressed configuration that blocks the flow of the fluid.

[0058] Two embodiments of one way valve systems that can be interchangeably deployed in the abbreviated condom of the present invention are presently described.

The first embodiment, designated as (16), is a substantially overlapping film components one way valve system, shown in Fig. 7A, 7B, 7C and Fig. 8A and Fig. 8B. The second embodiment, designated (54), is a collapsing tube one way-valve system, shown in Fig. 10A, 10B and IOC.

[0059] Referenced is now made to the film components one-way valve system:

The dictionary of the website: www.dictionay.reference.com defines the term "film" as a "thin sheet of any material". The one-way valve system according to the present invention is an assembly of substantially overlapping sheet components, each sheet unit referred from herein as a "valve film component", abbreviated: "VFC". The VFC-s are made of pliable materials having typically, but not limited to, a thickness of 0.15 mm and made of, but not limited to, soft and pliable (bendable and not breakable in bending) materials such as natural or synthetic rubber such as latex rubber and of various soft plastic materials. Each of the VFC units is fixed in place in one of its periphery edges to an anchoring support frame, which surrounds an orifice. With one edge of each VFC fixed in place, the rest of the periphery edges of the VFC-s are kept loose. The valve film components can be of any geometrical configuration, such as, but not limited to, triangles, squares and rectangles. By bending towards the inner section of the anchoring support frame (typically, the center of the support frame), the surfaces of the VFC-s form a compact configuration by at least partial overlapping, and by so cover the orifice in the support frame in a substantially flat formation. When sperm fluid is ejaculated from the urethral opening towards the VFC-s, the fluid pressure causes the VFC-s to loosen their compaction, enabling the fluid to flow between and through the VFS-s. When the ejaculation terminates, the fluid that is now in the receptacle, presses on the VFC-s from the opposite direction of previous flow. The pressure of the fluid causes the VFC-s to regain an overlapped, compacted water tight configuration, thus blocking the reverse flow of the fluid.

Fig. 7A displays an isometric illustration of an embodiment of overlapping sheet-units system one-way valve one-way valve system (16), deployed in the abbreviated condom of the present invention, shown in in Fig. 2, Fig. 4, and Fig. 6.

[0060] In Fig. 7A, the one-way valve system (16) has a disk shape and is composed of a flat support-frame ring (17) around an orifice. Frame ring (17) is made of a substantially flexible and stretchable-material that anchors around it an assembly of substantially overlapping VFC-s (19). Assembly (19) is made of at least two pliable, typically three or more, VFC-s (each VFC designated (21)). In assembly (19) each VFC (21), has a triangle shape, "slice of pie" configuration, and is fixed in place ("anchored") by the curved rims to the rim of anchoring support-frame ring (17). The other two rims of the triangle remain loose and overlap the rims of the neighboring VFC-s. When in a relaxed state (no presume applied on assembly 19) the VFC-s (21) maintain their compacted configuration and cover the orifice in support-frame ring (17). [0061] In Fig. 7 A, the embodiment of assembly (19) is shown with the substantially overlapping VFC-s assuming the configuration of a slight concaved dome formation. The concaved dome is positioned in the abbreviated condom and substantially over the urethral opening, as shown in Fig. 1 Fig. 3 and Fig. 5. When sperm fluid (11) is ejaculated and flows towards assembly (19), from the pressure of the fluid, overlapping VFC-s (21) loosen their compaction and overlapping, shown in Fig. 7B and 8A, and enable the sperm fluid (11) to pass between the VFC-s. When the sperm fluid is in receptacle (14), pressure by the sperm fluid is applied on assembly (19) in the reverse direction of entry to the receptacle, shown in 8B. The pressure causes VFC-s (21) to compact and overlap, thus, blocking the streaming of the fluid towards the urethral opening. Since assembly (19) is dome-shaped, and is positioned and supported from underneath by the dome shape of the glans penis, the pressure exerted by the sperm fluid in the receptacle reinforces the compaction of the VFC-s (21) in their overlapped configuration.

[0062] Reference is currently made to Fig. 9, which shows an embodiment of utilizing a multitude of small size one-way valve systems (16) forming a single one-way valve system component (30), utilized in an abbreviated condom in the present invention. The configuration of the embodiment, shown in the Fig. is an assembly of at least two, preferably more, one-way valve systems (16) (shown in Fig. 7A) grouped together and deployed simultaneously. In the multi overlapping- sheet-units one-way-valve systems configuration, designated 30, shown in Fig. 9, the one-way valve system (16) units are fixed in position close to each other in a shallow dome made of pliable material (32). Dome (32) is surrounded and kept in place by a ring of substantially stretchable material (34). The one-way valve system component (16) shown in Fig.2, Fig. 4, Fig. 6, Fig. 10A, 10B and IOC can interchangeably be replaced by the multi one-way valve systems configuration component (30).

[0063] Reference is currently made to the collapsible-tube one-way valve system (54) shown in Fig.lOA, Fig. 10B and Fig. IOC. One way valve system (54) is shown in the Fig. as a component of abbreviated condom of the present invention (10) shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 and interchanges with one way valve (16) in the embodiment. [0064] The collapsible-tube one way valve system (54) is constructed of tube conduit (56) made of soft and pliable (bendable and not breakable in bending) materials. The materials used can be, but are not limited to, natural or synthetic rubber such as latex rubber and of various soft plastic materials. Typically, but not limited to, the wall thickness of the tube is 0.1 mm and typically, and not limited to, the length of the tube may vary between 0.3 and 6 centimeters. The tube is typically, but not necessarily, flat shaped. In construction, one end of the tube connects to an anchoring support frame (58), leaving the tube to extend from the anchoring frame with its other end open and un-connected. When in a relaxed state (no fluid pressure exerted), the tube collapses inward (as shown in Fig. 10A), causing segments of the inner surface of the tube fold and bend and form an assembly of undefined inner tube surface film sections that compress and compact towards each other. The film sections may (also) overlap with each other. In the compacted configuration, the surface film segments are referred from herein as an assembly of the tube's "film -components".

[0065] When sperm fluid (11) is ejaculated from an urethral opening (24) trough the anchoring support frame (58) and towards the tube (56), the pressure of flowing sperm fluid causes the loosening of the tight configuration of the film-component segments of the wall and the tube protrudes, thus, enabling the fluid to pass through the tube, as shown in Fig. 10B. When the ejaculation terminates, the sperm fluid (11) that flowed with pressure through the tube now presses on the tube from the entire external side surface area of the tube (the pressure designated (60)), thus, causing the tube to compact and to collapse inward, as shown in Fig. IOC. In collapsing, at least two film- component segments of the inner surface of the tube compact tightly towards each other, forming a compress configuration, thus, blocking the reverse flow of the sperm fluid through the tube.

[0066] The one-way valve systems of both disclosed embodiments ((16) and (54)) can be connected to a receptacle ((14) and 38) by adhesive materials (as shown in Fig. 2, Fig. 4 and Fig. 6) or, alternatively, they can be produced connected as a single component. An illustration of a receptacle and a one-way valve system in a single component configuration is shown in Fig. 10A, Fig. 10B and Fig. IOC. [0067] The geometrical design ("foot print") of the anchoring support frame of the oneway valve systems of both disclosed embodiments ((17) and (58)) can be a disk, a square, a rectangle or any other shape-design.

[0068] Reference is currently made to the collapsed configuration of the three presented embodiments of the abbreviated condom of the present invention, prior to being deployed (shown in Fig 1, Fig. 3 and Fig. 5, respectively).

[0069] Reference is currently made to collapsed configuration of the abbreviated condom (50):

[0070] Fig. 11 is an isometric illustration of an embodiment of abbreviated condom (50) shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 in its collapsed configuration, as seen from above. In the Fig. sheet (52) is shown positioned above receptacle (14) and plate (28) is reversibly attached to the bottom side ("stick side) of sheet (52). To deploy abbreviated condom (50) plate 28 is removed, receptacle (14) and connected one way valve (16) are positioned over urethral opening and sheet (52) is wrapped around glans penis (22).

[0071] Reference is currently made to collapsed configuration n of embodiments (10) and (36) of the abbreviated condom:

[0072] Fig. 12A, 12B and Fig. 13 show embodiments (10) and (36) of the condom of the present invention in their collapse configuration, prior to being deployed. The figures illustrate the substantially flat configuration of an abbreviated condom in accordance with the present invention. Figures 12B and Fig. 13 illustrate the placement of disposable sealing plate (28) that can optionally be a component of an abbreviated condom of the present invention. Plate (28) is reversibly connected to the bottom of attachment ring (20) and/or capping ring (26) and keeps the adhesive material on ring (20) and/or ring (26) from losing their "stickiness". Plate (28) is removed prior to deployment of the condom.

[0073] It should be clear that the description of the embodiments and attached Fig. set forth in this specification serves only for a better understanding of the invention, without limiting its scope. [0074] It should also be clear that a person skilled in the art, after reading the present specification could make adjustments or amendments to the attached Fig. and above described embodiments that would still be covered by the present invention.
