ABSTRACT:
A training device directed to helping prevent nocturnal enuresis in males. The device inlcudes a pair of elongated members for positioning along opposite sides of a penis. The elongated members are hinged together at one end allowing the elongated members to be folded toward one another around the opposite sides of the penis. An inelastic belt attached to one of the elongated members at a point between opposite ends of the belt can be wrapped around the members and the penis to press the members against the penis and thereby help avoid accidental dislodgement of the device. The elongated members have a semicircular cross section across the direction of elongation, the semicircular faces being oriented toward one another when the elongated members are folded parallel to one another. The inward orientation of the semicircular faces allows the device to be fitted relatively comfortably and aids in preventing dislodgement of the device. Upon enlargement of the penis the wearer is wakened by increased pressure applied substantially evenly all around the penis.
