Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bottle for artificial breastfeeding and other uses; a valve, applied to the wall of the bottle, makes it possible to regulate, by manual control, the quantity of air which must replace the liquid discharged by effect of the depression determined by the suction; an area of the teat is automatically variable geometry to assess the variation of this depression during continuous suction.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a remedy for all these difficulties.
  • the invention as characterized in the claims, solves the problem of introducing air into the bottle even in the presence of a very low depression, by revealing and visualizing the continuous variation of the depression which occurs in the bottle by the effect of a continuous feeding. 6This is obtained by supplying the bottle from the bottle with a manual valve, whether or not attached to the side wall or bottom of the bottle, and in another by giving a region of the teat a variable geometry with the variation of the vacuum at inside the bottle during breastfeeding.
  • the advantages obtained by virtue of this invention essentially consist in the fact that the quantity of air which enters the bottle without almost gouging, is regulated by hand without any interruption of feeding.
  • the variation of the depression inside the bottle is revealed automatically and continuously without any external intervention, being on one side, a visual signaling means to know when and how to intervene near the valve. .air and on the other side, a means of control towards the effect obtained with the intervention made on the valve, as well as towards the general state of functioning of the bottle with respect to the needs of the infant; it is possible more the administration of food / dense substances than milk or medicinal in the form of liquid, powder and gas, with or without addition of air.
  • the invention is explained in more detail with the aid of annexed drawings showing only a non-restrictive embodiment.
  • Fig. 1 shows a glass bottle for a bottle according to the invention, the air valve of which is in the middle position;
  • Fig. 2 shows the same bottle with the air valve in the back wall;
  • Fig. 3 shows a sectional air valve fixed to the glass bottle according to the invention;
  • Fig.4 shows a sectional section of plastic bottle fitted with a fixed air valve and whose air life is achieved at the time of use;
  • Fig. 5 shows a sectional section of a plastic bottle fitted with a separate air valve and intended to pass through the wall of the bottle;
  • the F ig. 6 shows the top view of a bottle nipple according to the invention;
  • Fig. 7 shows the section along BB of FIG. 6;
  • Fig. 8 shows the section along CC of FIG. 6.
  • the bottle according to the invention comprises a bottle and a nipple applicable to the mouth of the bottle, for example with screws or without.
  • the bottle shown in Figg. 1 and 2 and which is made of glass to be reused, comprises a cylindrical, transparent, graduated body (1) in the side wall or from the bottom of which is an air valve (2) provided with a device (3) for manual adjustment, turning 180 ° or from a different angle, between two fully open positions "A" fully closed “C”; at each intermediate position there is an intermediate value for the opening of the valve.
  • the neck of the bottle is threaded allowing the application of a nipple holder; or it is smooth for clutching a nipple without end piece:
  • the said valve (2) an example of which is shown in FIG.
  • the 3 is in two elements: one (21) acting as a seat is fixed to the bottle or else is a part of the bottle and the other (22) acting as a shutter is movable relative to the first to which it is engaged by a thread (23) which is not hermetic and which forms a passage for air.
  • the two elements, fixed and movable, of the valve have a conical contact surface or of another known form. in taps and with or without the interposition of a gasket.
  • the air passages (24) are one or more, in one or both of the valve elements.
  • the shutter element (22) can be provided pe of a tail (25) perforated for the external attachment suitable for obtaining the introduction into the bottle of liquid, and / or gaseous and / or powdered substances such as for example. drugs, in addition or not to the ambient air.
  • the bottle shown in Fig. 4 and which is made of plastic or other easily perforable material, consists of a body (1) of traditional shape, the side wall of which protrudes in a star towards the outside a short cannula (32), externally threaded, having the function of a fixed element of said air valve.
  • the shutter element of this valve is an internally threaded capsule (33) placed on the cannula (32) by means of the thread and from the base of which a conical element (35) emerges inward. as high as the capsule and the tip of which acts as a passage for air in the wall (31) of the bottle by the effect of screwing followed by a loosening of the capsule.
  • the bottle shown in Fig. 5 and which is made of plastic or of other material easy to perforate, not returnable, is provided with a needle element, metallic or of other material, hard with a rod (42) wedge-shaped with small conicity and with a cylindrical head (43) that, wide; provided with a small longitudinal perforation (44) passing through the rod and into the head with one or more transverse holes (45) but communicating with the perforation (44) by making the passage (s) for the air when the rod of the the needle element is placed in the wall of the bottle; a probe (46) is provided to ensure the opening of the perforation (44) and to adjust the closure.
  • a flexible rubber body with a base (51) a peninsula (52) and a terminal lollipop (53) whose cross section is elliptical at each point of its longitudinal axis; a circular rim (55) joined to the base (51); a nozzle '(56) for application to the screw neck of the bottle.
  • a bulge (57) has been provided protruding towards the outside, open inside and whose wall has a very thin thickness and less than that of the other areas of the teat.
  • bulges (57) are of variable geometry and undergo variations in curvature with respect to the variations in the depression inside the bottle by the effect of suckling: more precisely the increase in depression produced first flattening the wall and then bending it back.
  • the bulges (57) it is planned to make a corresponding zone of the base (51) having the wall thinner than the other zones of the teat.
  • the teat is advantageously provided with an annular projection (58) so that said bulges (57) remain outside the mouth of the infant and even to avoid excessive introduction of the teat into the mouth of the infant.
