Definitions

  • the field of the invention is that of childcare. More specifically, the invention relates to baby bottles, and in particular baby bottles that are designed so that the pacifier is constantly full of liquid.
  • bottle models have been known that are designed so that the pacifier is constantly filled with liquid.
  • a bottle is for example described in GB 2 169 210.
  • a valve system located between the reservoir and the nipple, allows the liquid to pass from the tank to the pacifier but not from the pacifier to the tank. Any pressure on the pacifier then causes the liquid to come out of the upper slot of the pacifier, regardless of the position of the bottle.
  • the liquid can be located in a flexible pouch which retracts as the liquid is drunk.
  • a piston located at the bottom of the tank rises upwardly as the liquid is drunk.
  • Bottles using this technique make feeding easier for the baby, and more like breastfeeding. Indeed, any pressure of the baby's jaws against the pacifier produces a flow of liquid.
  • this bottle can be used in all positions. Indeed, the flexible bag or the piston and the valve prevent air from entering the nipple. The baby is not likely to swallow air, which avoids problems such as flatulence.
  • Bottles of this type have been known for a long time, in particular by patent GB 2 169 210, published in 1986. Yet no solution to this problem of the liquid in the pacifier during disassembly has been proposed.
  • the invention particularly aims to overcome these disadvantages of the prior art.
  • an object of the invention is to provide a means for the liquid does not flow out of the bottle during disassembly of the pacifier.
  • the invention also aims, in the case of bottles with a flexible bag, to allow the user to easily see how much liquid remains in the tank.
  • a bottle comprising a reservoir and a pacifier separated by a valve device comprising at least one valve allowing the liquid contained in the baby's bottle to pass through.
  • reservoir to said nipple but not of said nipple to said reservoir which, according to the invention, comprises draining means for returning to said reservoir of the liquid contained in the nipple, acting at least during disassembly of the nipple.
  • the user can easily and without having to disassemble the nipple drop into the tank all the liquid contained in the bottle.
  • the user who dismount the pacifier thus no longer has the risk of spilling the liquid contained in the pacifier when it disassembles it. Indeed, it will have flowed into the tank before the pacifier is disassembled.
  • the valve comprises at least one flexible membrane for closing at least one main opening in the valve device.
  • the pacifier is secured to the body of the bottle and / or the reservoir by a fixing ring maintaining the emptying means, and the emptying means are controlled by this ring.
  • the valve device comprises at least one emptying opening and a shutter for closing the openings.
  • the shutter or shutters are flexible.
  • the valve device comprises a single piece forming the shutter or shutters and the flexible membrane.
  • the shutter or shutters are part of the teat and / or the ring.
  • the emptying means make it possible to return air into the pacifier.
  • the liquid in the nipple can properly flow into the reservoir.
  • the body of the bottle contains a piston and / or a valve for returning the outside air into the reservoir and / or a flexible bag (21) forming a flexible reservoir.
  • the piston or the bladder prevent air from being present in the bottle of the bottle, and may not pass into the teat.
  • the valve allowing air to enter the tank also allows the baby to drink without creating an air gap in the tank. However, in this case, it is necessary that the bottle remains in an inclined position when the baby is drinking, to prevent air from entering the pacifier.
  • the invention also relates to a valve device for separating the nipple and the reservoir of a bottle, which comprises at least one drain opening for emptying the liquid contained in the nipple in the tank.
  • the invention therefore proposes to provide emptying openings between the nipple and the tank of the bottle, these emptying openings automatically opening when the bottle nipple is disassembled.
  • FIGS 1 and 2 show a bottle according to the invention during the feeding stages.
  • This bottle consists essentially of a nipple 1, a body of the bottle 2 in which there is a flexible bag 21 forming a reservoir, and a valve system 3 located between the nipple and the reservoir, according to a known technique in itself.
  • the pocket 21 emptying the liquid then retracts, as indicated by the arrows G.
  • FIG. 3 shows in detail the constituent elements of the bottle.
  • the valve 3 consists of a rigid portion 32 and a flexible membrane 311.
  • the flexible membrane can be pressed against the main opening 321 of the rigid part, which closes it under the effect of the pressure of the liquid or air in the pacifier. It can also be removed from the main opening 321, which opens it, under the effect of a depression in the pacifier.
  • the rigid part 32 comprises, according to the invention, in addition to the main opening 321, drain holes 322. These drain holes are intended for emptying the liquid contained in the nipple in the tank 21 of the bottle, when necessary. These holes are located at the periphery of the rigid portion 32 of the valve device 3. Several holes may be distributed along the diameter of this part.
  • the rigid portion 32 has a specific frustoconical shape intended to promote the flow of the liquid.
  • the rigid portion 32 has a slope towards the main opening, which facilitates the flow of liquid to the pacifier.
  • the rigid portion 32 has a slope towards the holes 322, which facilitates the flow of the liquid present in the teat through these holes.
  • the pacifier When a baby's head, the pacifier must be permanently full of liquid.
  • the drain holes must not allow the nipple to empty at this time.
  • a shutter 312 is thus provided to plug the emptying holes 322. This shutter can advantageously be part of the same part 31 as the flexible membrane 311.
  • passage openings 313 are provided so that the liquid can pass through the part 31. These passage openings 313 allow both the passage of the liquid from the reservoir to the nipple, as indicated by the arrows F of the Figure 2, that the passage of this liquid from the nipple to the reservoir, as indicated by the arrows I of Figure 4.
  • the fixing ring 4 makes it possible, in a conventional manner, to fasten the teat 1 to the body of the feeding bottle 2 and / or to the flexible reservoir 21. As shown in FIG. 3, this ring 4 comprises a bead 41 which is located just above the drain holes 322.
  • this bead When the fixing ring is tightened, this bead has the effect of pressing the shutter 312 against the drain openings 322, and therefore to block these openings.
  • the beads 41 loosen their pressure on the shutters 312.
  • the shutters 312 then take up a position spaced from the emptying openings 322, as can be seen in FIG. 4.
  • the emptying openings 322 then leave the liquid contained in the nipple will flow into the bottle of the bottle, as indicated by the arrows I of Figure 4.
  • the ring 4 is designed to let the air as soon as it is loosened.
  • the air can enter the nipple (arrows K) to take the place of the liquid that falls into the tank.
  • FIG. 5 shows a sectional view of a bottle according to another embodiment of the invention.
  • This bottle consists essentially of a teat 51, a body of the bottle 52 in which there is a flexible bag 521 forming a reservoir, and a wall 53 between the teat and the reservoir.
  • This wall 53 has a valve 531 which allows the milk to pass only from the tank of the bottle to the teat.
  • This valve 531 is formed in the same room as the wall 53, which avoids an assembly of multiple parts. It can be composed of a single flexible part with a slot, or a bi-material part (rigid and flexible).
  • the wall 53 also has drain holes 532, located at the periphery of the wall, for emptying the liquid contained in the nipple in the tank 21 of the bottle, when necessary.
  • a sealing portion 511 of the nipple 51 which is held by the fixing ring 54, seals the drain holes 532.
  • the sealing portion 511 retracts from the emptying, and milk can flow from the pacifier to the bottle tank.
  • the body of the bottle contains a flexible bag 21, to avoid the presence of air in the tank.
  • the invention can obviously be applied to other types of bottles, including bottles including a piston in the body of the bottle or a system, for example valve, allowing outside air to enter the tank .
