Abstract
The present invention relates to protective end caps on rolled condoms. These protective end caps are designed to attach to rolled condoms to indicate the orientation, direction of unrolling, of the condoms. These protective end caps are then separated from the condoms after the unrolling of the condoms and placement on the male organ insuring that the outer surface of the condoms remains steril and uncontaminated while it is being placed on the male organ.
Claims2
An end cap for a condom which has a smooth outer and inner surface comprising an interior contact surface in contact with the outer surface of the condom and an exterior surface which has a differentiated feel and touch from the inner surface of the rolled condom to indicate orientation of unrolling and which may be rolled with the condom without damaging the condom or end cap where in the interior contact surface of the end caps has the following properties:
- impermeability with minimal or non-absorbency to preseminal fluids and lubricants used on or incorporated in the condoms, chemical inertness and non-reactivity with the material and lubricants of the outer surface of the condom, flexibility to be rolled with the condom, facile separation from the outer surface of the condom once the condom has been fully unrolled, such properties causing the end cap to be held on the condom when the condom is rolled.
