Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil d'exercice vaginal. L'appareil comprend un boîtier de forme convexe ayant un premier ensemble d'ouvertures sur une surface d'un premier côté, un premier ensemble de capteurs détectant une quantité de force appliquée à des adhésions dans un passage vaginal et un actionneur permettant l'évacuation de liquide, par l'intermédiaire du premier ensemble d'ouvertures, correspondant à la force détectée. Le boîtier cylindrique creux comprend un second ensemble d'ouvertures disposé sur une surface du boîtier cylindrique creux, un second ensemble de capteurs pour détecter une quantité de force appliquée sur le boîtier cylindrique creux lors de la contraction des muscles vaginaux et un second récipient configuré pour stocker le liquide, le liquide étant évacué, par l'intermédiaire du second ensemble d'ouvertures, correspondant à une force détectée appliquée par la contraction des muscles vaginaux. Le boîtier de forme concave comprend une pluralité de vibreurs pour stimuler les muscles externes d'une paroi vaginale.
