The invention concerns a vibrator comprising an engagement face (11) which is adapted to engage a part of a body, and which is driven by an electric motor (18). The vibrator moreover comprises a housing (1) comprising a shaft (9) connected with the motor, and the vibrator has a frequency regulating device and an amplitude regulating device (2) for regulating the frequency and the amplitude, respectively, of the upward and downward movement of the engagement face. The vibrator is characterized in that the amplitude regulating device (2) comprises an inclined shaft (15) in extension of the shaft (9) connected with the motor, said inclined shaft being slidably mounted in a conversion element (14) having a through hole. The conversion element (14) is rotatably and slidably mounted in a recess in an arm (13) which is directly secured with respect to the engagement face (11), said recess having a width greater than the width of the conversion element and having an extent in the width which is substantially perpendicular to the direction of the upward and downward movement of the engagement face.
A method for generating ejaculation in male patients suffering from paralysis by imparting vibrations to the penis, wherein the vibration is performed at a frequency in the range of 0 Hz-200 Hz, and that the amplitude is in the range of 1.5 mm-5 mm, and where the engagement face of a vibrator contained in a housing is forced against the penis by the fingers of a hand simultaneously gripping around the penis and the housing of the vibrator, and wherein the frequency and the amplitude of the vibrator is adjusted to satisfy the needs of the individual patient.
