Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A disposable nursing bag assembly is provided, comprising a bag prefilled with sterilized infant's formula and adapted to be snuggly inserted into a tubular holder of already existing nursing systems like the one sold under the trade-mark PLAYTEX. This bag which is closed to form a storage chamber, has a dispensing end enclosed within a protective bag in order to insure its sterility until it is used. In use, the protective chamber is incised to form two flaps which are folded over the upper edge of the holder so as to overhang from it after insertion of the assembly within the tubular holder. The dispensing end is incised and a nipple assembly is disposed around and over the folded flap portions such that the nipple portion completely encloses the dispensing end.

DESCRIPTION OF T~10 PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE
INVENTION.
According to a first embodiment of this invention as shown in figure 1, th~re is provided a bag assembly 4 com~rising a first cylindrical bag 5 having a tubular portion 6, a top portion 7 and a bottom edge 8. The interior of such a bag 5, when closed, defines a storage chamber adapted to store a feeding liquid (such as infant's formula, milk or the like). The first bag 5 is of such a height as to be able to contain approximately from 3 to 8 onces of fluid.
...
The top portion 7 of the bag 5 defines a dispensing end 10, once this top portion 7 has been incised. It is to be kept in mind ~hat any other shape may be given to this dispensing end 10 without changing the 2~2204~
gist of this invention.
This first bag 5 i6 sealingly connected to a second bag 11 having a tubular portion 12, a top portion 13 and a bottom edge 14. The second bag 11 has essentially the same diameter as the first bag 5. It also has such a height that its top portion 13 does not touch the dispensing end 10, thus providing for a protective chamber 15 which protects the dispensing end 10 from the environment keeping it sterile until incision of the protective chamber 15 along the curved lines A shown in figur~e 1. Of course, this means that the protective chamber 15 must be of such a height as to be incisable along lines A without touching the dispensing end 10.
In use, the protective chamber may be incised with a sharp in6trument such as a knife or scissor or razor blade along lines A.
To assemble these two bags, the dispensing end 10 of the first bag 5 is inserted longitudinally into the opened bottom edge 14 of the second bag such that both bags are parallel and that the second bag 11 forms a lining around the first bag 5. The dispensing end 10 is inserted to a distance such that the bottom edge 8 from the first bag 5 is substantially aligned with the bottom edge 14 of the second bag 11 such that they form a bottom end 16. The bottom end 16 of the as~embly remains opened until the storage chamber is filled with 3 to 8 onces of pre-sterilized infant's formula or the like. The bottom end 16 of the assembly is now tightly closed by sealing the bottom edge 8 from the first bag 5 on itself and with the bottom edge 14 from the second bag 11 through heat or ultrasonic means or any other 6ealing means as will --~'.. ' :-:
~` 2022045 ~
appear obvious to a person skilled in the art.
The first bag 5 and second bag 11 of this disposable bag assembly 4 may be fabricated from 6heets of flexible plastic material. One of these two bags may be fabricated of W impervious material to prevent W
radiation from affecting the nutritional quality of the fluid. This W impervious material may be embodied in a lining of aluminum based sheet or any other reflecting or opaque material as will appear obvious to a pergon skilled in the art.
Shown in figure 2 is the same embodiment of the invention once the assembly 4 has been partially installed onto a PLAYTE ~ holder 17. The holder 17 comprises a tubular base 18 having upper and lower ends 19 and 20 of substantially the same diameter. In this particular holder 17, the upper end 19 refers to the end wherein the top portions 7 and 13 of the bag assembly are aligned, wherein the bottom end 20 of the holder refers to the end wherein the bottom margins 8 and 14 of the bag assembly are aligned. The upper edge 24 refer6 to the outer side of the upper end 19 of the holder, thus being slightly larger than its inner upper diameter.
In use, the protective chamber 15 is first incised along lines A. The now incised protective chamber forms two flap portions 22, which portions are adapted to be folded out and over the upper edge 21 of the holder 17. As al60 shown on figure 2, after folding of the flap portions 22, the dispen6ing end 10 of the firet bag is now 6tanding upright and slightly protruding from the upper end 19 of the holder. This dispensing end 10 is then cut along line B which is ~` 2022045 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tubular holder 17.
A nipple assembly 23 comprising a nipple 24 and a collar 25, forming parts of the standard PLAYTE
system, is disposed directly over the opened dispensing end 10~. The collar 25 is adjusted over the upper end 19 of the holder 17 such that is squeezes tightly the overhanging flap portion 22 to the upper edge 21 of the holder.
.,..~y ~ .. ..
As shown in figure 2,~the assembly 4 must of course have a total diameter which is comparable to the diameter of the upper end 19 of the holder 17. Indeed, one may remember that the top diameter of the second bag 11 must be such that it is foldable over the upper edge 21 of the tubular holder 17.
.
After having disposed the assembly 4 into the holder 17, it will be obvious to a "parent skilled in the art of baby feeding~ how to use the present invention.
After use, the whole assembly may be disassembled, and ~ -the bag assembly may be disposed of.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the second bag 11~ is much shorter than the first one 5' and has its bottom margin 14~ secured to the first bag 5' not at the bottom thereof but at another location.
., ... "
In this other embodiment as shown in figure 3, the second bag 11~ covers only the dispensing end 10' of the first bag 5~ and its bottom margin 14' i8 sealingly connected to the first bag 5~ at mid-height thereof. Once again the height of the protective ; ~ ;
chamber 15~ will be such that it does not touch the ~
- , .. . .
dispensing end 10~ and it is incisable without 8 ;~
.:
2 0 2 2 0 4 ~
touching it. Of cour6e the bottom margin 8' of the -first bag 5~ will be 6ealed as usual at 16~ to close the bottom of the bag 5'.
Still another embodiment of thi6 invention may include ;~
the above described assemblie6 with the addition of a pre-sterilized nipple assembly 24 provided within the :~
space forming the protective chamber 15. Such a nipple ~-24 would have to be inserted in the protective chamber -~
15 of the ~econd bag 11 before inæertion of the first bag 5. This nipple would thus be trapped within the closed a6sembly and -relea6ed upon cutting of the protective chamber along lines A.
