Definitions

  • the invention relates to a baby bottle with a mouth having a mouth and a teat with a horizontal flange which is supported by a ring closure releasably connectable to the neck, which is a portion of a hollow cylinder with a radially inward flange which is the flange of the teat presses against the face of the mouth and seals against it.
  • connection between the teat and the bottle can be established by means of a threaded ring closure. If the baby bottle is to be refilled, the ring closure must be released from the body of the bottle and set aside. There is a risk that the vacuum cleaner will become contaminated or fall to the floor. If several bottles are refilled at the same time, e.g. may be the case in hospitals, there is also the risk that the individual suction cups are interchanged.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a baby bottle of the type mentioned without undue constructive effort so that a captive connection between the baby bottle and the teat is also present when the bottle is to be refilled, for example.
  • the invention is at least realized when the ring closure carrying the teat can be connected to the neck in such a way that it can connect the teat to the baby bottle in the way that is customary in the case of conventional threaded ring closures, and others establish a connection between the baby bottle and the teat even when the teat is not in pressure connection with the mouth.
  • the cap has at least one inside and protruding to the ring closure, which in the effective state of the cap is in pressure connection with the side of the ring closure facing away from the face of the mouth.
  • the cap consists of a base body which can be screwed to the neck and a cup-shaped attachment which can be detachably connected to the base and in which the suction cup is accommodated.
  • the advantage of this embodiment of the invention is that the cap serves on the one hand as protection for the teat and on the other hand prevents the ring closure from being unwantedly detached from the neck of the bottle.
  • a further expedient embodiment of the invention provides that the end face of the attachment which can be connected to the base body has at least one spring engaging behind the opening of the base body with a latching lug.
  • a sufficient connection is e.g. accessible by three springs distributed around the circumference.
  • the inside of the opening which can be releasably connected to the attachment has an annular groove into which the latching lugs of the springs engage.
  • a baby bottle or part of a baby bottle with a neck 10 is shown.
  • the mouth 10 can be connected to a suction device, not shown, with a horizontal flange, which is supported by a ring closure which can be releasably connected to the neck, can be placed on the end face 18 of the mouth 10 and sealed against it.
  • the ring closure 14 can be connected in an articulated manner to the neck 12 in such a way that it presses out of its effective working position, which presses the flange of the nipple against the end face 18 of the mouth 10 one of his ineffective working positions, in which the suction device laterally from the end face 18 of the mouth 10 or from the neck 12 and the mouth 10 releases, is pivotable.
  • the ring closure 14 is carried by a holding body 20 which can be releasably connected to the neck 12 and can be connected to the latter via a joint 22.
  • the holding body 20 is an approximately fork-shaped connecting piece which can be snapped onto the neck 12 and has legs 24 and 26 which extend over more than 180 ° of the neck circumference.
  • the ring closure 14 is a section of a hollow cylinder with a radially inwardly directed flange 28 which can press the flange of the suction cup against the end face 18 of the mouth 10.
  • the diametrically opposite side of the ring closure 14 with respect to the joint (hinge) 22 has an inwardly directed latching projection 32 which can be releasably connected to a latching recess 30) in the neck 12.
  • This latching projection 32 can be actuated via an actuating projection 34.
  • the outer wall of the neck 12 has an annular groove 36 on the circumference, onto which the holding body 20 can be snapped on. From above, the annular groove 36 is delimited by a flange 38, while in the lower region it is delimited by an enlargement 40 of the neck 12.
  • FIG. 2 and 5 in particular show that a cup-shaped cap 42, which receives the sucker and can be detachably connected to the neck, for example a closure or protective cap, is provided.
  • the cap 42 has an inner cylindrical projection 44 projecting towards the ring closure 14, which in the effective state of the cap 42 (FIG. 5) is in pressure connection with the side of the ring closure 14 facing away from the end face 18 of the mouth 10.
  • the projection 44 is aligned with the end piece of the neck 12.
  • the cap 42 consists of a base body 50 which can be screwed to the neck and has an approximately circular opening 52 for the teat and a cup-shaped attachment 54 which can be detachably connected to the base body 50 and in which the acid is accommodated , consists.
  • the end face 52 of the attachment 54 that can be connected to the base body 50 has three springs 60, 61 and 62 engaging behind the opening 52 with locking lugs 64, 65 and 66.
  • the inside of the opening 52 that can be releasably connected to the attachment 54 has an annular groove 68 into which the catches 64, 65 and 66 of the springs 60, 61 and 62 engage.
  • the lower area of the inside of the base body 50 is provided with thread 70, so that the base body 50 can be screwed onto the thread 72 of the bottle 12.
  • the cylindrical outside of the base body 50 has a plurality of axially aligned grooves 76 and 78, which facilitate the screwing of the base body 50.
