Patent ID: 8690753

Claim:
A stimulation aid comprising: a housing adapted for retaining against the surface of an individual, said housing having associated therewith retention means for securing the housing relative to the individual; a power source; drive means; and a driven member, said driven member extending outwards from the housing and being supported for oscillatory motion relative to the housing in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction in which said driven member extends outwards from the housing, said driven member having a distal end which lies external of the housing, said drive means comprising a mechanism for varying the amplitude of oscillatory movement of said distal end of the driven member and, in use, the power source being operable to supply power to the drive means whereby the drive means effects said oscillatory motion of the driven member, wherein the power source and the drive means are substantially wholly contained within the housing, and the driven member extends through a wall of the housing, and wherein a flexible member is provided around the driven member to provide a seal with the housing.
