ABSTRACT:
A teething ring, for use by a child, comprising an outer ring, an inner hub, and spokes radially connecting the outer ring and inner hub. The outer ring is made of a material suitable for aiding a teething child such as a semi-hard rubber or plastic, and is selectively dipped in a material most suitable for allowing the child to chew upon. The outer ring is sized so that the child cannot place more than a minor arc thereof in his or her mouth. The inner hub has a vibration mechanism which includes a motor that drives an eccentric weight for generating a vibration sensation. The vibration sensation is transmitted to the outer ring through the spokes. The vibration mechanism, and all electro-mechanical components associated therewith are fully contained within the inner hub and are thereby safely protected from the child.
