<heading id="h0001">BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION</heading>
<heading id="h0002">1. FIELD OF THE INVENTION</heading>
<p id="p0001" num="0001">The present invention is in the technical field of sex toys. More particularly, the present invention pertains to the field of sex toys that are inserted into the body of two partners at the same time.</p>
<heading id="h0003">2. DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART</heading>
<p id="p0002" num="0002">Sex toys have been around since the beginning of recorded history. As of 2013, the worldwide sex toy industry is estimated to be a $15 billion dollar a year industry with approximately 70% of the manufacturing being done in China. Common older types of penetrative sex toys include: dildos, Ben Wa balls, horseshoes, double penetration dildos, strap-on dildos, kegel exercisers, motorized sex machines, butt-plugs, anal beads, and prostate massagers; any of which can be fitted with vibrators. These sex toys are traditionally made of silicon, rubber, hard plastic, metal, glass, or cyber skin; although stranger materials can be and are used.</p>
<p id="p0003" num="0003">More recently a product called a Feeldoe<sup>®</sup>, as described in <patcit id="pcit0001" dnum="US5690603A"><text>US5690603, filed Jan 22, 1996</text></patcit> has entered the market. The Feeldoe° allows a woman to insert one end of the toy into her vagina, thereby holding it in place while she uses the other end to penetrate her sexual partner. Obviously, this design will not work well for a man and a woman. Other dual-pleasure toys, such as two-sided dildos either focus on vaginal penetration, or fail to transfer kinetic energy from one partner's anus to the other's.<!-- EPO <DP n="2"> --> Likewise, strap-on dildos tend to focus on the sensations of the receiver and not the giver by butting the end of the dildo against the pubis, which has no erogenous sensitivity.</p>
<p id="p0004" num="0004"><patcit id="pcit0002" dnum="US20090216076A"><text>US2009/0216076</text></patcit> discloses a sex toy for insertion into the body of a wearer and a partner at the same time, comprising first and second elongated, resilient generally cylindrical end regions, each sized for receipt in an anal or vaginal cavity and having distal and proximate end portions and a centre region. The first and second end regions connect with opposing ends of the centre region. The first end region is provided with a suction cup to contact the skin and erogenous zones of one of the partners to enhance the sexual play of the partners.</p>
<p id="p0005" num="0005"><patcit id="pcit0003" dnum="WO2010078655A"><text>WO2010/078655</text></patcit> discloses an interchangeable attachment connector system comprising a connector member to which a variety of sex toys may be attached. In one embodiment, two such connector members are connected by a chain.</p>
<heading id="h0004">SUMMARY</heading>
<p id="p0006" num="0006">The invention provides a sex toy as specified in claim 1.</p>
<p id="p0007" num="0007">Embodiments of the invention may allow for the use of vibrators, waterproofing, rechargeable batteries, charging platforms, control systems to modulate vibration patterns, and bladders filled with air or fluid that allow for expansion or retraction of various parts of the sex toy.</p>

Elements in the several figures are illustrated for simplicity and clarity and have not necessarily been drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be emphasized relative to other elements for facilitating understanding of the various presently disclosed embodiments.

<heading id="h0007">DETAILED DESCRIPTION</heading>
<p id="p0011" num="0011">The following description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of describing the general principles of exemplary embodiments, many additional embodiments of this invention are possible within the scope of the appended claims. Reference throughout this specification to "one embodiment," "an embodiment," or similar language means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic that is described in connection with the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Thus, appearances of the phrases "in one embodiment," "in an embodiment," and similar language throughout this specification may, but do not necessarily, all refer to the same embodiment.</p>
<p id="p0012" num="0012">Unless otherwise indicated, the drawings are intended to be read (e.g., arrangement of parts, proportion, degree, etc.) together with the specification, and are to be considered a portion of the entire written description of this invention. As used in the following description, the terms "horizontal", "vertical", "left", "right", "up" and "down", as well as adjectival and adverbial derivatives thereof (e.g., "horizontally", "rightwardly", "upwardly", etc.), simply refer to the orientation of the illustrated structure as the particular drawing figure would be seen by a perspective wearer of the sex toy looking down at it. Similarly, the terms "inwardly" and "outwardly" generally refer to the orientation of a surface relative to its axis of elongation, or axis of rotation,<!-- EPO <DP n="5"> --> as appropriate. Also, as used herein, terms such as "positioned on" or "supported on" mean positioned or supported on but not necessarily in direct contact with the surface.</p>
<p id="p0013" num="0013">The phrases "at least one," "one or more," and "and/or" are open-ended expressions that are both conjunctive and disjunctive in operation. For example, each of the expressions "at least one of A, B and C", "at least one of A, B, or C", "one or more of A, B, and C", "one or more of A, B, or C" and "A, B, and/or C" means A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, or A, B and C together. The terms "a" or "an" entity refers to one or more of that entity. As such, the terms "a" (or "an"), "one or more" and "at least one" can be used interchangeably herein. It is also to be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," and "having" can be used interchangeably. Further, all numbers expressing dimensions, physical characteristics, and so forth, used in the specification and claims are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term "about".</p>
<p id="p0014" num="0014">For the purposes of promoting an understanding of the principles of the present invention, reference will now be made to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings and specific language will be used to describe the same.</p>
<p id="p0015" num="0015">As stated above, anal play for couples is fun, but it is difficult to simultaneously please both partners anally while also performing vaginal intercourse. Very generally, embodiments of the sex toy described herein comprise one end that is an anal dildo for a receiver and another end that is a butt plug for the wearer with a point of attachment between the two for the attachment of the sex toy to the wearer. In a preferred embodiment, the butt plug end is inserted into a man and a cock ring is strung through<!-- EPO <DP n="6"> --> the point of attachment, which is a hole, and acts as a fulcrum and rotates the toy backwards slightly upon the thrust of the dildo end into the woman's anus, thereby transferring movement to the butt plug end up and against the man's prostate. Additionally, because the toy can be inserted in both partner's anuses simultaneously, each partner can directly feel a connection with the anal movements of the other partner.</p>
<p id="p0016" num="0016">It is anticipated that this design could also be used between female-female couples using a strap-on dildo, harness, or other means of attachment; in which case, the user of the strap-on dildo or harness would take the man's place in the description above. It is anticipated that this design could also be used between male-male couples, albeit more awkwardly. The toy could also be used without a cock ring, but it would be harder to hold in place.</p>
<p id="p0017" num="0017">Now referring to the drawings <figref idref="f0001">Fig. 1</figref> illustrates a perspective view of one embodiment of a sex toy <b>20</b> with an attached cock ring <b>30.</b> The sex toy <b>20</b> itself could be made of silicon, rubber, hard plastic, metal, glass, cyber skin, or any other material suitable to its purpose. The sex toy <b>20</b> could also be made of one solid piece or hollowed out entirely or only in certain portions. Methods of production are those of similar products in the market. Likewise, cock rings <b>30</b> are common in the market and can be made of silicon, rubber, hard plastic, metal, cyber skin, or any other material suitable to their purpose. A cock ring may also comprise an integrated or detachable vibrator <b>32.</b></p>
<p id="p0018" num="0018">From the perspective of a potential wearer of the sex toy <b>20,</b> the sex toy is comprised of three primary regions which may create a generally hooked shape. The<!-- EPO <DP n="7"> --> fulcrum region <b>40</b> is the centre region and comprises one or more points of attachment <b>42</b> and serves to connect the two elongated, resilient, and generally cylindrical end regions sized for receipt in an anal or vaginal cavity. The end regions are: the butt plug region <b>50,</b> which is a region in the rear, and the dildo region <b>60,</b> which is in the front.</p>
<p id="p0019" num="0019">In the present embodiment the point of attachment <b>42</b> is a hole from one side of the sex toy to the other. In other embodiments the point of attachment could be a hole with a slot whereby an attaching means, which could be a cock ring, strap, string, harness, rope, tether, fastener, leash, tie, band, strip, belt, bridle, halter, restraint, shackle, chain, Velcro or other means of attachment to a wearer could be removably slid into the hole such that the object for attachment is held securely. The point of attachment <b>42</b> need not be a hole. The point of attachment could be a point at which an integrated cock ring, strap, harness, rope, tether, fastener, leash, tie, band, strip, belt, bridle, halter, restraint, shackle, chain or other means of attachment to a wearer is permanently or detachably affixed with a ring, loop, hoop, circlet, snap, buckle, fastener, clip, latch, clasp, clutch, grip, clasp, staple, binder, button, press stud, crimp, tuck, fold, crease, lock, knot, Velcro or any other means of attachment known in the art.</p>
<p id="p0020" num="0020">The importance of the point of attachment is that it allows the wearer to attach the sex toy to their penis, thereby creating a pivot point or fulcrum for the butt plug <b>50</b> and dildo <b>60</b> regions of the sex toy <b>20</b> to move about. This creates a suspended seesaw lever for the forces applied to either end region of the sex toy across the fulcrum and allowing more efficient transfer of kinetic energy allowing partners to experience the<!-- EPO <DP n="8"> --> tiny tremors, clenches, and other movements of their partner, which in-turn creates a unique sensation of closeness.</p>
<p id="p0021" num="0021">Ideally, the means for attaching for a man would be a cock ring <b>30,</b> as it attaches the sex toy in precisely the right location, tight against the wearer's perineum, and may also serve additional useful purposes. A leather cock ring that comes apart is ideal as it would easily be strung through a hole in the sex toy and removed again.</p>
<p id="p0022" num="0022">The fulcrum region <b>40</b> may be either narrower or wider in cross-section than either the butt plug <b>50</b> or dildo <b>60</b> regions, but should be wide enough as not to injure the wearer. The fulcrum region should ideally be sized so that its top surface <b>44</b> is flat and extends in length from the base of the penis to the anus for ideal placement of the butt plug region <b>50.</b> Height wise, the fulcrum region <b>40</b> should be lower <b>46</b> where the sex toy could contact the male gonads to prevent injury thereto, which is typically just forward of the point of attachment <b>42.</b> Either end of the fulcrum region <b>40</b> may be tapered toward the butt plug <b>50</b> and/or dildo <b>60</b> regions respectively.</p>
<p id="p0023" num="0023"><figref idref="f0001">Fig. 2</figref> illustrates a side view of an embodiment of a sex toy with an attached cock ring. The rear end of the sex toy comprises a butt plug region <b>50,</b> which extends upward and forward from a fulcrum region <b>40</b> and is intended to be inserted into a wearer's anus, or in rare cases, vagina. In a preferred embodiment, the dimensions of this region are ideally suited to stimulate a man's prostate while the sex toy <b>20</b> pivots about the point of attachment <b>42.</b> The proximate portion <b>52</b> of the butt plug region may be tapered to increase the wearer's comfort while inserted anally and to allow for greater flexibility of the distal portion <b>54</b> of the region as the entire region moves<!-- EPO <DP n="9"> --> around during intercourse. In a preferred embodiment, the entire butt plug region <b>50</b> is smooth. However, it is contemplated that the region may comprise one or more bulbous, knobbed, textured, or ridged sub-regions.</p>
<p id="p0024" num="0024">Still referring to <figref idref="f0001">Fig. 2</figref>, the front end of the sex toy <b>10</b> comprises a dildo region <b>60,</b> which also extends upward and forward from a fulcrum region <b>40</b> and is intend to be inserted into the recipient's (not the wearer's) anus or vagina depending on their gender and sexual position. In a preferred embodiment, the length of this region is ideally sized to fill the anal cavity without pressuring the junction of the rectum and the sigmoid colon and will be longer than the butt plug region. The reason the dildo region is preferably longer than the butt plug region <b>50</b> is in order to provide appropriate space <b>62</b> for a wearer's testicles which would be located at the proximate end of the dildo region <b>66.</b></p>
<p id="p0025" num="0025">The dildo region <b>60,</b> while elongated, resilient, and generally cylindrical; may be smooth; shaped like a penis; or may comprise one or more bulbous, knobbed, textured, or ridged sub-regions. In a prefer embodiment, the dildo region <b>60</b> may comprise one or more bulbous regions <b>64.</b> In this preferred embodiment the bulbous regions would have a smaller diameter at the distal end of the dildo region <b>68</b> and would have wider diameters sequentially as they approach the proximate end of the dildo region <b>66,</b> with the possible exception of the bulbous region under the space <b>62</b> for the testicles which could be smaller and somewhat flattened. The increasing diameter of the bulbous regions <b>64</b> would allow for the sex toy to be inserted into a recipient's anus in a graduated manner appropriate for a more relaxed penetration,<!-- EPO <DP n="10"> --> while the variable diameters also facilitate the recipient's ability to grip the dildo region <b>60</b> of the sex toy <b>20</b> during use for increased stimulation. The ability to grip the dildo region <b>60</b> of the sex toy is of increased importance in this design because the point of attachment <b>42</b> and means for attachment create a fulcrum point for a leveraged seesaw like transfer of kinetic energy from the dildo region <b>60</b> to the butt plug <b>50</b> region of the sex toy.</p>
<p id="p0026" num="0026"><figref idref="f0002">Figure 3</figref> illustrates alternate embodiments of a sex toy without a cock ring attached. In one embodiment of a sex toy <b>22,</b> the sex toy may be waterproof and comprise internal vibrators <b>70,</b> a rechargeable battery <b>72,</b> a control system <b>74,</b> and a power input <b>76.</b> The internal vibrators <b>70</b> and control system <b>74</b> may be adapted to provide for variation in the duration and intensity of the vibration of the sex toy. The control system <b>74</b> may also be adapted to control the duration and intensity of vibration via a manual control <b>75</b> located on the sex toy or remotely via a separate wireless remote control <b>73.</b> The rechargeable battery <b>72</b> may be recharged via a power input <b>76.</b> The power input <b>76</b> may simply be a plug for a power cord, may be an electrically conductive plate designed to be paired with a cordless recharger <b>78,</b> or may be any other method for conferring a charge to the battery.</p>
<p id="p0027" num="0027">A cordless recharger <b>78</b> may comprise a stand that holds the sex toy in a position such that each of the electrical leads on the cordless recharger come into contact with an electrically conductive plate on the sex toy. The electrically conductive plate may comprise a metallic disk which is one electrical lead and a metallic ring encircling the disc which is a second electrical lead, each of which pair<!-- EPO <DP n="11"> --> with another electrical lead on a cordless recharger; such cordless charging systems for sex toys are already know in the art and are used in high-end waterproof sex toys.

In one embodiment of a sex toy <b>24,</b> the sex toy may comprise one or more external vibrators <b>71</b> which may be removably inserted into said sex toy <b>24.</b> In another embodiment a sex toy could have one or more internal cavities <b>80</b> in either the butt plug <b>50</b> region, dildo region <b>60,</b> or running the length of the dildo region <b>60</b> of the sex toy to the butt plug region <b>50</b> of the sex toy. An internal cavity <b>80</b> may be filed with air or fluid. An internal cavity may also comprise one or more valves <b>82</b> whereby additional air or fluid may be added to or removed to said internal cavity.</p>
<p id="p0029" num="0029">In application, one region or another of the sex toy could be pumped up to a larger size. For example, an air valve could allow the butt plug region <b>80</b> to be pumped up to a larger size to provide greater pressure against the prostate, or so the butt plug region <b>80</b> would be less likely to slip out of the wearers body when in use. In another application, a fluid filled cavity would facilitate the ability of one user to squeeze their end of the sex toy while in use and create a corresponding increase in size and pressure on the other end of the sex toy for the other partner. <figref idref="f0002">Fig 3</figref> illustrates possible changes in dimensions of the corresponding ends when filled with fluids in dashed lines.</p>
<p id="p0030" num="0030">Embodiments of the present disclosure present a sex toy preferably designed<!-- EPO <DP n="12"> --> to enhance penile to vaginal penetration in a missionary position with an anal-to-anal connection between the two partners. This may be accomplished by inserting one end of the sex toy into the anus of the wearer and using a cock ring or strap to fix the sex toy against the wearer's perineum by hooping over the wearer's penis, or strap-on, thereby creating a pivot-point which allows the wearer to transfer the motion of their thrusting directly back into their anal cavity. This design allows for a woman to receive vaginal and anal penetration, while the wearer is simultaneously being penetrated anally. Because of the pivot point and simultaneous anal penetration both the wearer and the receiver can feel a direct connection with the anal movements in their partner.</p>
