The present invention relates to water pipes, also referred to as bongs, and sexual stimulation devices. More specifically, the present invention is a water pipe shaped to be inserted into, and thereby utilize, the vagina as a water reservoir to provide sexual stimulation during use of the water pipe, which may optionally be used to smoke.
Water pipes have a long history beginning in the near east in such regions as Persia. Water pipes come in a variety of forms from hookahs and narghiles to bongs. An example of a hookah is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 722,405 and an example of a bong is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,216,785. As shown, the distinction between the hookah and the bong is that the hookah includes a long flexible tube, or in some instances, a number of long flexible tubes, through which the smoke travels from the pipe to the smoker's lungs, whereas the bong includes no such tube and the smoke is drawn directly from the pipe.
The operating principle of these water pipes is similar. A pipe with one open end and one closed end contains water. The material to be smoked is packed into a bowl which terminates in a stem below the water level. As air is inhaled from the open end, the air pressure in the pipe is reduced. Air and smoke travel from the bowl through the stem, through the water, into the headspace in the pipe above the water level, and into the smoker's lungs. Some smokers believe that as the smoke is drawn through the water, the smoke is cooled and particulate matter is filtered out making the smoke easier on the lungs.
There is some minor variation in the water pipe art, however, all prior art devices include a closed chamber for a water reservoir to prevent the water from communicating outside the water pipe. While some water pipes, such as that shown in U.S. Pat. No. 4,031,904, include removable bases to facilitate cleaning, all water pipes, including those with removable bases are intended to be used with the bases securely closing the chamber to contain the water.
Devices for sexual stimulation have a similarly long history. Any number of vibrators and other artificial sexual aids are known in the art. Simpler devices merely use shape and material to provide stimulation. However, more complex devices are generally characterized by the use of electrical means and/or mechanical means to create motion or vibration that stimulates the user. One example is U.S. Pat. No. 3,375,381 which shows an electric motor spinning an eccentrically mounted weight to create a regular vibration. However, no prior art device was found to use a fluid or fluid motion to create stimulatory vibrations.
A water pipe for providing female sexual stimulation includes an elongate tube. The tube has an open exit port at its upper end, an open reservoir port at its lower end, and an open inlet port. In one optional embodiment, the exit port forms a mouthpiece. In an alternate optional embodiment, a plug with a hole is disposed in the exit port, with the hole communicating with the exit port. In such an optional embodiment, a flexible hose includes a first end communicating with the hole in the plug and a second end serving as a mouthpiece. In yet another embodiment, a flexible tube communicates directly with the exit port.
The inlet port is spaced from the lower end to permit the lower end to be inserted into a vagina. Optionally, when the lower end is inserted, the inlet port remains exposed to ambient air. In one optional embodiment, the inlet port is disposed at an intermediate point along the water pipe between the upper end and the lower end. In an alternate optional embodiment, the inlet port is disposed proximate the upper end. In an optional embodiment described above including a plug disposed in the upper end, the inlet port may be disposed in the plug. In any optional embodiment, the lower end cooperates with the wall of the vagina to form a water reservoir holding water in the lower end and the vagina with the reservoir port submerged such that water rests in the vagina and at least a portion of the lower end.
In an optional embodiment, the pipe includes a flare separating the lower end, and the reservoir port located thereat, from the inlet port. In a further optional embodiment, the flare is an integral bulb.
A stem with an end opening is received into the inlet port with a substantially airtight seal with the end opening submerged in the water reservoir formed by the lower end in cooperation with the wall of the vagina. The other end of the stem is exposed to ambient air. When suction is applied at the exit port, air is drawn through the stem to bubble through the water reservoir thereby generating stimulatory vibrations that are transmitted to the vagina.
In a further optional embodiment, a bowl for holding combustible material communicates with the stem such that the bowl is exposed to ambient air. In such an optional embodiment, the combustible material is ignited such that when suction is applied at the exit port, smoke from the combustible material is drawn through the stem to bubble through the water reservoir thereby filtering and cooling the smoke in addition to generating stimulatory vibrations that are transmitted to the vagina. Optionally, the smoke may collect in a smoke collection chamber between the upper end and the lower end.
Reference is now made to the figures wherein like parts are referred to by like numerals throughout. It should be noted that the figures show a number of different embodiments for the present invention, including embodiments adapted for smoking as well as an embodiment primarily for sexual stimulation not necessarily adapted for smoking. Each of these embodiments is described in turn. With reference to
Returning to
Turning first to the upper end 14, the exit port 24 and upper end 14 may be shaped in any manner. For example, in the optional embodiment shown in
Referring again to
The reservoir port 26 at the lower end 16 may similarly take a variety of forms. However, unlike the exit port 24, the reservoir port 26 aids in the formation of a water reservoir. That is, in use, as described in greater detail below, the lower end 16 cooperates with a female vagina to form a water reservoir. The reservoir port 26 is submerged in the water reservoir and allows water and bubbles, and the vibrations created by the bubbles in the water, to be transmitted to the vaginal walls. As shown in
The tube 12 also includes an inlet port 28. The inlet port 28 is spaced from the lower end 16 to permit the lower end 16 to be inserted into a vagina. Optionally, the inlet port 28 is positioned such that when the lower end 16 is inserted into a vagina, the inlet port 28 remains exposed to ambient air to permit air to be drawn into the tube 12 through the inlet port 28. In an optional embodiment, a flare 30 separates the inlet port 28 from the lower end 16. This flare 30 may take any shape including the integral bulb shown in
The water pipe 10 is used in conjunction with a hollow stem 32 with an end opening 34. It is noted that the stem 32 could be integrally formed with the tube 12. However, in the optional embodiment of
In optional embodiments adapted for smoking, such as those shown in
In an alternate embodiment used primarily for sexual stimulation and not necessarily for smoking, such as that shown in
As alluded to above, in an optional embodiment, shown in
For example, in the embodiment of
Similarly, in
In use, the lower end 16 is inserted into the vagina such that the lower end 16 cooperates with the vagina to form a water reservoir. The water reservoir is filled, such as by pouring water down the tube 12 through the exit port 24, through the tube 12, through the reservoir port 26, and into the vagina to fill the vagina and a portion of the lower end 16 with water such that the reservoir port is submerged. Thus, water, bubbles, and the vibrations created by such bubbles, pass freely through the reservoir port 26 to the vagina.
The stem 32 is inserted into the inlet port 28 and positioned with the end opening 34 submerged below the water level of the water reservoir and the other end exposed to ambient air. As discussed above, an optional bowl 36 or air regulator may be attached to the stem 32 in communication therewith. In an embodiment including a plug 20 in the upper end, the plug 20 is positioned with the hole 40 in communication with the exit port 24.
Suction is applied at the exit port 24. As discussed above, this will typically be done through a mouthpiece either formed by the upper end 14 or at the end of a flexible tube 22. Air is drawn through the stem 32 to bubble through the water reservoir. The bubbles travel through the water reservoir and burst at the water level. This bubbling creates stimulatory vibrations in the water reservoir that are transmitted to the vagina.
In an embodiment used for smoking, the combustible material to be smoked is packed into the bowl 36 and ignited. When suction is applied at the exit port 24, smoke travels through the stem 32 and bubbles through the water reservoir. As above, the bubbling creates stimulatory vibrations in the water reservoir that are transmitted to the vagina. Simultaneously, the smoke bubbling though the water reservoir is cooled and filtered. The smoke bubbles burst at the water level and travel through the smoke collection chamber 18 to the exit port 24. In the optional embodiment in which the upper end 14 forms a mouthpiece, the smoke may be inhaled at the upper end 14. In the optional embodiment in which a flexible tube 22 is used, the smoke travels through the exit port 24, through the flexible tube 22, and to a mouthpiece where it is inhaled.
While certain embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described it is to be understood that the present invention is subject to many modifications and changes without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims presented herein.
