The patent US12042382B2 describes a penile prosthesis designed to enhance sexual function through an innovative assembly of components. The prosthesis includes an inflatable penile prosthetic, a pump, a reservoir, and two sets of tubing for fluid connection. A key feature is a plate that couples with the inflatable prosthetic and is designed to attach to the descending pubic rami, positioning the prosthetic in a natural orientation suitable for penetrative intercourse. The plate is adjustable, allowing for customization in its attachment to the pubic rami, and is constructed from materials such as polymers or metals to ensure durability and support.

Additional claims detail the inflatable prosthetic's structure, which includes a glans-shaped bulb at one end and a shaft that expands when inflated. The design also accommodates a second inflatable prosthetic, enhancing functionality. The plate features a recessed aperture and adjustable bases that can rotate relative to each other, providing further adaptability. The prosthesis can be tailored to individual anatomical needs, with options for both inflatable and malleable designs, ensuring a versatile solution for users seeking improved sexual health outcomes.
