Classification: A61H

Abstract:
A penile traction device including:an elongated deformable resilient pad to contact and to be wrapped around a penile shaft for frictionally gripping the shaft and for dissipating and distributing force applied to the shaft through said elongated deformable resilient pad;said elongated deformable resilient pad having an essentially coextensive felt material backing for distributing said force throughout said elongated deformable resilient pad;a multi-hook strip for securing said elongated deformable resilient pad in its wrapped configuration by engaging hooks of said multi-hook strip at different locations in said felt material backing;an elongated attachment strap having a first end and a second end and a central section to be wrapped around said elongated deformable resilient pad for transferring said force to said elongated deformable resilient pad;said elongated deformable resilient pad and said elongated attachment strap being independent from one another permitting relative movement between said elongated deformable resilient pad and said elongated attachment strap;means for adjusting the length of said elongated attachment strap in contact with said elongated deformable resilient pad in its wrapped configuration and means for securing said elongated attachment strap at said adjusted length to control the pressure exerted on said elongated deformable resilient pad by said elongated attachment strap;weight attachment means connected to said elongated attachment strap for attaching a weight to provide said force.
