Abstract

A volumetric measuring device for measuring a body part. The device includes a fluid container filled with fluid. The fluid container has a body part opening for permitting the insertion of a body part and a displaced fluid opening for permitting the flow of fluid that has been displaced as the result of inserting the body part. A fluid-tight barrier covers the body part opening and maintains a fluid-tight seal over the body part opening while the body part is being inserted. The volumetric measurement is determined by measuring the amount of displaced fluid after the insertion of the body part through the body part opening. In a preferred embodiment, the body part being measured is an erect penis.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A volumetric measuring device for measuring body parts, comprising: 
 A. a fluid container filled with fluid,    B. a body part opening for permitting the insertion of a body part,    C. a displaced fluid opening for permitting the flow of fluid that has been displaced as a result of the insertion of said body part through said body part opening,    D. a fluid-tight barrier for completely covering said body part opening, 
 wherein said fluid-tight barrier permits the insertion of said body part and into said body part opening while simultaneously maintaining a fluid-tight seal around said body part opening,  
   wherein the volumetric measurement of said body part is determined by measuring the amount of said displaced fluid after the insertion of said body part through said body part opening.    
   
   
       2 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 1 , wherein said body part is an erect penis.  
   
   
       3 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 1 , wherein said body part is a human breast.  
   
   
       4 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 1 , wherein said fluid-tight barrier is a condom.  
   
   
       5 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 1 , wherein the volume of said displaced fluid is measured in cubic centimeters.  
   
   
       6 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 1 , wherein the volume of said displaced fluid is measured in penile displacement number.  
   
   
       7 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 6 , wherein 100 pdn is approximately equal to a penis having a length of approximately 6 inches and a diameter of approximately 1.75 inches.  
   
   
       8 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 7 , wherein one said penile displacement number is approximately equal to 2.36 cubic centimeters.  
   
   
       9 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 1 , wherein said fluid-tight barrier is a flexible latex based membrane.  
   
   
       10 . A volumetric measuring device for measuring body parts, comprising: 
 A. a fill chamber, comprising an opening to allow fluid into said fill chamber,    B. an insertion chamber comprising a body part opening, wherein said insertion chamber receives fluid from said fill chamber,    C. a fluid-tight barrier for completely covering said body part opening, wherein said fluid-tight barrier permits the insertion of said body part and into said body part opening while simultaneously maintaining a fluid-tight seal around said body part opening, and    D. a drain chamber for receiving displaced fluid from said insertion chamber after said body part has been inserted into said insertion chamber, 
 wherein the volumetric measurement of said body part is determined by measuring the amount of fluid remaining in the volumetric measuring device after the insertion of said body part through said body part opening.  
   
   
   
       11 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 10 , wherein the volumetric measurement of said body part is determined by measuring the amount of fluid remaining in the fill chamber after the insertion of said body part through said body part opening.  
   
   
       12 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 10 , further comprising a first valve for controlling the flow of the fluid from said fill chamber to said insertion chamber and comprising a second valve for controlling the flow of said fluid from said insertion chamber to said drain chamber  
   
   
       13 . A volumetric measuring device for measuring body parts, comprising: 
 A. a displacement sleeve,    B. a means for providing an air tight seal around a body part inserted into said displacement sleeve,    C. a pump for pumping air into said displacement sleeve while a body part is inserted into said displacement sleeve,    wherein the volumetric measurement of said body part is determined by measuring the amount of air displaced as a result of said body part being inserted into said displacement sleeve.    
   
   
       14 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 13 , wherein said pump is an automatic pump that pumps air at a constant rate.  
   
   
       15 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 13  wherein the measurement of said body part is determined by measuring the amount of time it takes to pressurize said displacement sleeve with a body part inserted to a predetermined pressure.  
   
   
       16 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 13 , wherein said pump is a manual pump that pumps air at a constant rate.  
   
   
       17 . The volumetric measuring device as in  claim 13  wherein the measurement of said body part is determined by measuring the number of pumps it takes to pressurize said displacement sleeve with a body part inserted to a predetermined pressure.
