Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a variable flow nipple, intended to fit on a bottle and comprising at its end an orifice for letting the infant's food pass, said orifice being constituted by a slot comprising two branches forming an angle between them.
  • the teats in known manner consist of a fixing ring on the bottle, a body and a nipple, which is subjected to the sucking movements of the infant. It has been proposed to pierce, at the top of the nipple, one or more slots. It is known from patent FR 2 052 206 to make a slit, straight or not, comprising, at at least one of its ends, a hole drilled through the wall of the teat. It is also known from US Pat. No. 2,805,663 that the slot may have the shape of a V, the angle formed by the branches of the V being approximately 60 °.
  • the nipple of the teat may, in known manner, have at its end a substantially spherical convex shape: the slot is then formed in this convex end. It has been proposed in FR-A 2 417 978 to provide the feed slot on a concave curved surface or on a substantially flat surface disposed at the end of the nipple. In the case where this surface is concave, the slot is arranged in the bottom of the cavity.
  • markers having a determined position relative to the slot (s), so as to be able to adjust, by rotation of the bottle around its axis. , the position of the slit, in relation to the median plane of the child's head.
  • the aim of this adjustment is to ensure the modification of the teat flow rate by a more or less large opening of the slit during suction movements of the infant's lips.
  • marks are traditionally three in number and are arranged so that the mark I corresponds to the minimum flow rate of the bottle, the mark III at the maximum flow rate and the mark II at an intermediate flow rate; for a teat with a rectilinear slit, the mark I and the mark III are defined, at the periphery of the teat, with an angular difference of 90 ° and the mark II is located on the teat in the bisector plane of the dihedron defined by the nipple axis and marks I and III, on the side the further from landmarks I and III.
  • a nipple is sought which makes it possible to obtain a progression as linear as possible around each of positions I, II and III so as to be able, for the same nipple, to modify the flow rate, if necessary, during feeding; moreover, it is desired that the difference between the maximum and minimum flow rates is sufficient to be able to use the same teat for different foods and different infants.
  • the present invention relates to a variable flow nipple to solve this problem.
  • the present invention relates to a variable flow nipple intended to fit on a bottle, comprising at the end of its nipple, a slot having two branches forming an angle between them, characterized in that the angle of the two branches of the slot is an obtuse angle ⁇ between 165 and 95 ° whose apex is on the axis of the nipple, that the branches of the slot have lengths l1 and l2 (with l1> l2) such that ratio l1 / l2 is between 1 and ⁇ , the value of ⁇ increasing from 1 to 10, preferably from 1 to 4.5, when the value of the angle ⁇ decreases from 165 to 95 °, said branches of the slot being constituted by cutting lines without removal of material emerging at their non-adjacent ends in a hole of small section.
  • the slot also has at its corner apex a hole of small cross section; the end of the nipple of the pacifier is convex.
  • the branches of the slot preferably have a length between 0.4 and 4 mm.
  • the holes may be circular and preferably have a diameter of between 0.15 and 0.25 mm.
  • the flow rate of the teat is made to vary substantially linearly when it is rotated in one direction or the other from a value of ⁇ corresponding to 0 ° , 45 ° or 90 ° (position of the teat on minimum flow I, intermediate II or maximum III), while keeping a significant difference in flow between the maximum flow and the minimum flow.
  • the maximum flow rate is then sufficient for the bottle to be used for porridge or mashed vegetables.
  • the teat according to the invention has been designated by 1; this teat has an axis of symmetry; it comprises a nipple 2, a body more or less in the shape of a bell 5 and a rim 6 for its attachment to the bottle.
  • the surface of the end of the nipple 2 is convex and has the shape of a spherical cap; there was made by cutting without removing material a slot 3 having two branches 3 a and 3 b forming between them an angle ⁇ , the complementary angle being designated by ⁇ .
  • the top of the angle is located on the axis of the nipple.
  • the slot 3 is provided with three circular holes 4 a , 4 b , 4 c ; the hole 4 a is located at the top of the slot and has the same axis as the teat; the holes 4 b and 4 c are drilled at the opposite ends of the branches 3 a and 3 b respectively, of the angular slot.
  • the branches 3 a , 3 b have length l1 and l2 (l1> l2) respectively.
  • marks I, II and III At the lower part of the body 5 of the teat are placed three marks I, II and III.
  • the marks I and III are in perpendicular planes; the reference III is in the plane of the branch 3 a on the side where the hole 4 b is located; the reference I is inside the obtuse angle ⁇ formed by the two branches of the slot.
  • Mark II is 135 ° from marks I and III.
  • the suction movement is carried out without there being a large opening in the slot 3, that is to say that obtains the minimum teat flow rate;
  • the reference mark III is placed under the infant's nose by rotation of the bottle around its axis, the maximum flow rate is obtained due to the spacing of the lips of the slot 3; if mark II is placed under the infant's nose, the feed rate is close to the average between the flow at reference I and the flow at reference III.
  • the air enters through the holes 4 a , 4 b , 4 c and cancels the depression which has been created inside the bottle.
  • the holes 4 a , 4 b and 4 c prevent the length of the branches of the slot 3 from changing during use.
  • the tests were carried out according to the protocol described below.
  • the teat is mounted on a bottle, which is placed vertically on a support, teat at the bottom.
  • the bottom of the bottle is open, which allows to apply on the water it contains, an air pressure of 4kPa, which corresponds to the suction exerted by the child.
  • an air pressure of 4kPa which corresponds to the suction exerted by the child.
  • the nipple is crushed, along the crushing axis AE, in jaws 7 mm apart, which represent the child's jaws: we measure the amount of water flowing for 30 seconds and the flow rates are expressed in cm3 / min.
  • the diametral plane of the teat which contains the reference I, passes through the crushing axis AE of the teat. Then rotate the jaws relative to the bottle by an angle ⁇ of 10 ° to 10 ° in the direction of the arrow f (see Figure 2), and measure the flow rate of the bottle for the different angles ⁇ .
  • the curves of FIGS. 4 to 11 are obtained. Each point of the curve corresponds to the average of measurements carried out on five identical teats, the measurement being repeated twice on each teat.
  • the curve in FIG. 5 has been plotted for a nipple comprising a 3.6 mm rectilinear slot comprising three holes of 0.20 mm in diameter, one at each end of the slot and one in the middle.
  • the flow in position II ′ is fairly close to the average of the flow in position I ′ and III ′. We also see on the curves that we can vary linearly the teat flow rates by rotating the bottle less than 45 ° around the three positions I ′, II ′, III ′.
  • the minimum (position I ′) and maximum (position III ′) values of the flow are offset by approximately 40 ° with respect to the marks I and III.
