| Abstract: |
An improved apparatus for augmenting male potency generally includes a cylindrical vacuum chamber adapted to cover a male sex organ. The vacuum chamber has an open proximal end and a closed distal end. The distal end is tapered to provide an integral ramp for expanding a resilient cincture band onto the outside diameter of the vacuum chamber. A vacuum connector fitting is formed at the base of such ramp for evacuation of the vacuum chamber. Guard flanges help protect the fitting. The proximal end includes a cincture band groove defined about the outside diameter of the vacuum chamber, with a plurality of vent holes formed in the groove and pneumatically interconnecting the exterior of the vacuum chamber with its interior. A cincture band which has been expanded onto the outside diameter of the vacuum chamber and advanced to its proximal end initially resides in the cincture band groove, where it covers and seals the plurality of vent holes. Once desired engorgement is achieved, the cincture band is further advanced onto the base of the user's male sex organ which simultaneously vents negative pressure within the chamber through uncovering of the vent holes. The construction of the cincture band includes a pair of semi-ellipsoidal handles and an enlarged region to be aligned with the urethra of the user's male sex organ so as to relatively reduce urethra constriction for improved seminal fluid discharge.

What is claimed is:
1. An improved apparatus for augmenting male potency through vacuum-generated engorgement of the male sex organ and subsequent cincture thereof with a cincture band, said apparatus comprising an elongated, generally cylindrical vacuum chamber adapted to cover a male sex organ, said vacuum chamber being open at a proximal longitudinal end thereof for contact with a user and for passage of the user's male sex organ therethrough into the interior of said chamber, and said chamber integrally defining cincture band expansion means at the opposite longitudinal end thereof for expanding to the outside diameter of said generally cylindrical vacuum chamber a resilient cincture band applied to said expansion means, said chamber proximal end having generally the same diameter as said vacuum chamber outside diameter, so that a cincture band expanded onto said vacuum chamber outside diameter may be advanced towards and over said chamber proximal end for user-selected placement of such band over the root of the user's male sex organ for retaining an erect condition thereof otherwise produced.
