Morphology
The compound is compositionally built from 'love' (affection/sexual relation) + 'machine' (device), so a learner can infer it refers to a device related to love or sex. However its specific slang sense (a sex toy) and possible alternative use for a person (e.g. a womanizer) are culturally marked and not fully predictable from the parts alone, so prior exposure or pragmatic knowledge is typically required.
Etymology
Love machine is also an informal name that comes from the simple picture of a machine made for love. It is used to mean 'a device or sex toy that provides sexual pleasure'.
