Definitions
- the invention relates to a drinking aid with the features according to the preamble of Claim 1 for releasably attaching to a drinking vessel, in particular to a Drinking cup or a drinking bottle.
- a drinking aid of the type mentioned is well known and is often for the Care of infants, the elderly or the sick.
- the drinking aid for this purpose has a detachably attachable to the drinking vessel essay on which a mouthpiece is formed, through which the toddler or the person fluids or fluid Porridge can absorb by sucking.
- the mouthpiece is usually equipped with a leakage protection in the form of a valve.
- the invention solves this problem by a drinking aid with the features of claim 1.
- the drinking aid according to the invention in addition to the am Mouthpiece provided leakage protection in addition with a pressure compensation valve provided with which a pressure equalization of the drinking vessel can be created, wherein the drinking aid according to the invention for all drinking vessels (cups, bottles, etc.) for Application can come.
- the pressure compensation valve is a very Effective pressure equalization already achieved at low pressure differences in the drinking vessel.
- the attachment and the mouthpiece is usually made of a flexible material, made as a plastic or natural rubber material.
- the attachment of the drinking aid can be cleaned, the attachment is preferred replaceable provided on the drinking aid.
- the leakage protection is preferably formed integrally with the mouthpiece and has a drinking slit, which is due to the residual stress of the Material of leakage protection closes. This will be a very good seal reaches the drinking slot as soon as the infant or the patient stops at the mouthpiece sucks.
- the pressure compensation valve is particularly preferably dome-shaped, preferably as hemispherical shell formed, protrudes into the drinking vessel and has a valve slot.
- the dome-shaped, projecting into the drinking vessel design of the pressure compensation valve It is achieved that the external ambient pressure in the drinking vessel acting vacuum biases the dome inside in the drinking vessel, whereby the Opening the valve slot is facilitated. Due to the shape of the valve slot and the Form as well as the material thickness of the dome, the negative pressure can be specified from the pressure equalization valve opens to vent the drinking vessel.
- the closing behavior of the leakage protection and the closing behavior the pressure compensation valve are coordinated so that after completed Pressure equalization still a slight negative pressure in the drinking vessel is present. This will ensures that the leakage protection closes safely and drips off liquid the mouthpiece is avoided.
- the drinking aid according to the invention a cap for releasable attachment to the drinking vessel, which at least the attachment partially encloses and attached to the drinking vessel state the essay against biases the edge of the vessel opening of the drinking vessel liquid-tight.
- the cap the essay completely covers and has a spout into which the mouthpiece is inserted. This ensures that the usually made of an elastic material Mouthpiece is protected from the teeth of the toddler and therefore a longer Lifespan has.
- the mouthpiece to the outside protruding sealing portion is formed, which under bias to the Inner wall of the nozzle for sealing rests. This ensures that liquid residues, which run along the mouthpiece, not between the cap and the attachment reach. Further, an intake of air through the gap between the outside prevents the mouthpiece and the inside of the spout.
- Fig. 1 is a partially sectioned side view of a first embodiment of a Drinking aid 10 according to the invention shown, which on serving as a drinking vessel Bottle 12 is releasably attached.
- the drinking aid 10 has one of an elastic plastic or rubber material manufactured attachment 14, which by a threaded cap 16 releasably attached to the bottle 12 is attached.
- the attachment 14 is formed with a mouthpiece 18 of oval cross-section (compare FIG. 2), which in the resting on the bottle 12 flat side of the article 14th passes.
- a leakage protection 20 which in Shape of a membrane to form a concave depression 22 in the mouthpiece 18 is provided.
- a drinking slot 24 is formed, which opens when sucking on the mouthpiece 18 and by the inherent elasticity of the material the leakage protection 20 closes again when the by sucking on the mouthpiece 18th generated negative pressure is too low. This will effectively expire the bottle 12 prevented.
- Adjacent to the opening of the mouthpiece 18 is at the bottom of the attachment 14 a formed inwardly projecting pressure compensating valve 26 in the form of a hemisphere shell 28.
- the pressure compensation valve 26 has a valve slot 30, by which negative pressure in Inside the bottle 12 can be balanced once sucked on the mouthpiece 18 becomes.
- the closing behavior of the drinking slot 24 of the leakage protection 20 and the closing behavior the valve slot 30 of the pressure compensation valve (26) are so one another agreed that after pressure equalization still a slight negative pressure in the drinking bottle 12 is applied to a dripping of liquid from the drinking slot 24 to prevent.
- the threaded cap 16 has a cover 32 which the flat side of the attachment 14 almost completely covered. From the cover 32 is upwards from a spout 34, in which the mouthpiece 18 of the attachment 14 is inserted, wherein the mouthpiece 18 is approximately flush with the open end of the spout 34 closes. On the one hand, penetration of liquid in the area between the cap 14 and the underside of the cover 32 to prevent and on the other hand, a suction of air through the gap between the Outside of the mouthpiece 18 and to prevent the inside of the spout 34 is at the Outside of the mouthpiece 18, a circumferential sealing portion 36 is provided, which bears under pretension on the inside of the spout 34.
- a pressure compensation opening 38 is provided on the cover 32, which when attached to the bottle 12 threaded cap 16 to the pressure compensation valve 26 is aligned so that air through the pressure compensation valve 26 into the bottle 12th can flow.
- a sealing surface 40 is provided, which at the Opening the bottle 12 limiting end face of the bottle 12 fluid-tight to Plant comes when the threaded cap 16 with its internal thread 42 on the external thread 44 of the bottle 12 is screwed.
- Fig. 5 shows a modified embodiment of the drinking aid according to the invention 10.
- the threaded cap 16' without nozzle 34 is equipped.
- the threaded cap 16 ' is used here only for attaching the attachment 14 to the bottle 12.
- the liquid is absorbed only via the soft mouthpiece 18 of the attachment 14.
- the pressure compensation valve 26 Due to the special design of the pressure compensation valve 26 as hemispherical shell 28th with great sealing ability against liquid leakage and good pressure balance a high functionality of the drinking aid 10 is achieved. By the vote the drinking slot 24 and the valve slot 30 to each other remains in the bottle 12th a low residual vacuum or a low negative pressure, whereby a leakage the liquid from the bottle 12 is avoided.
