ABSTRACT:
Erection control system of the invention overcomes known deficiencies of vacuum constriction devices, especially cumbersomness, technical difficulties and painfulness.
A penis-shaped vacuum chamber (12) adapted for unnoticeable operation under user's cloth. Removably placed penile seal (14) and a baffle (16) are adjustable to the user's penile girth and provide attachment so that the vacuum chamber hangs on the user's penis without additional support.
A ribbon-shaped constriction device (26) is wound with multiple turns over each other to form a cylindrical ring, retained by the belt (28) for exerting a prearranged inward radial pressure. A transferring device with the pulling loop (40) dislodges constriction device together with removably placed penile seal and baffle onto erect penis with simultaneous release of vacuum without additional mechanisms. The removably placed penile seal, the baffle, the belt are formed from segments of a condom. A method of vacuum erection treatment with a vacuum chamber, removable seal, a vacuum source and constriction device, in which forcible slip off of the constriction device onto erected penis causes slip off of the removable seal with simultaneous vacuum release in the vacuum chamber has been proposed.
