Abstract
1532360 Physiological measuring; exercising the vaginal muscles and measuring their force H REMIH 28 Sept 1977 [28 Sept 1976 22 Aug 1977 3 Sept 1977] 40390/77 Headings A5K and A5R [Also in Division G1] Pneumatic apparatus for exercising the vaginal muscles and measuring the force exerted by them comprises a probe body 5 connected to a hand pump 1 and a pressure indicating arrangement 7. The probe body comprises longitudinal and transverse bores 22, 23 which convey pressurized air from pump 1 to expand a sheath 26 surrounding and secured to the body at the ends of the latter's concave section. The muscular force exerted on the expanded sheath is transmitted via line 6 to be indicated by the pointer and scale arrangement shown or alternatively by an electrical digital indicator.
