Definitions
- the invention relates to food supply for babies, more specifically to an alternative to breastfeeding in public, on trips or at events - as well by fathers or other caregivers.
- bottles To meet babies' physical needs while away from home, parents and caregivers typically use diapers of high absorption capacity, baby bottles to hold breast milk or baby formula and bottle warmers to keep the milk or formula warm.
- bottle warmers One drawback to using bottle warmers however, is they require electricity or only maintain drinking temperature for a short time.
- mothers may find themselves unable to breastfeed in some situations, such as when stuck driving in traffic.
- US 4.966.580 describes a hose feeding device for patients. However, there is no indication of armpit pouches and tempering baby food at the body of a caregiver, instead it proposes the suspension of a bag on an infusion rack. Moreover, the assumption of the examiner, that due to its Fig. 1 , the tube must (also) be 10 to 40 cm long, seems unfounded.
- US Pat. No. 4,994,076 describes a supply system for small children with a suction hose, attached to a bottle, placed alongside the crib, but not of a pouch for armpits. Moreover, there is no hint of tempering the content by body contact with a caregiver.
- the claims relate to the construction of the lid on the bottle and its leakproofness.
- US Pat. No. 5,421 ,496 describes a baby feeding system, again with a hanging bottle, tube and teat.
- the claims refer to the suspension of the bottle on a frame, similar to infusion pouches, or around the neck of a not further indicated person.
- a reference to the tempering of baby food is not found here, nor does it handle the problem of overflow in the babies' mouth with possible suffocation and the risk of self- strangulation with the tube.
- WOOO / 27258 describes a drinking bottle with a drinking straw attached thereto in decorative designs, wherein the drinking straw is at the same time designed as a holder for the closure lid, so that neither the lid nor the drinking straw can be lost. There is no reference made to baby care.
- US 2016/0213574 A1 describes, in the summary and in FIG. 1 , a rescue and care system which is intended for treating exsiccosis, but the claims only refer to a combination of drinking bottle and drinking straw in all conceivable materials and embodiments. There is no reference made to handling and tempering of baby food.
- Another problem of baby feeding is aerophagia by sucking in air with the food.
- One first inventive step is to utilize body heat to keep baby food at drinking temperature. This is most easily done by using parent's armpits for storage, where formerly also temperature had regularly been taken, because it normally is about 37 °C or 98°F there - thus best for baby food.
- the second idea is to avoid aerophagia from sucking in air with the food by delivering it directly from a body-borne pouch without the possible access of air.
- a third inventive step is to help the mother or caregiver to control suction intensity - what a breastfeeding mother can naturally feel - with a transparent hose.
- a tiny and short hose preferably of silicone material, leads to a suction nipple, whereon a shield is inserted to prevent babies from swallowing the teat.
- the shield also has a profile for controlled restricting of the milk flow and blocking milk flow by tightly squeezing the hose.
- a preferred embodiment consists of disposable units in several sizes.
- An integral design reliably prevents co-suction of air and prevents the necessity of the "burping" or baby flatulence.
- hose and the nipple must not add up to more than 28 gram or 1 oz of material, which can then be recycled.
- the shield and the shoulder strap can be reused to reduce the disposable volume.
- pouches unlike bottles, have large contact areas for checking formula temperature, such as by pressing it gently to one's cheek, and thus provide more security against over-heating with quick adjustment possible through bodily contact.
- the pouch (possibly in warming sheaths) can also be suspended above the baby bed.
- the connection of the suction nipple with the hose makes it possible to integrate data transmitting lines, which transfer the output of sensors in the nipple to data loggers and monitoring systems.
- the transfer- and evaluation systems are preferably connected to the suspension of the feeding pouch, where possible electrical supply lines for warming pads on the infant feeding pouches also end.
- a shield which prevents swallowing the nipple is inserted into one of various circumferential grooves of an increasingly thickened shaft, resulting in a narrowing cross-section and thus increased suction resistance until blocking occurs when the shield is pressed into its end gap.
- the suction resistance can also be adjusted by means of a clamp or restriction valve at the attachment of the suction hose to the pouch in such a way that overfeeding and suction laziness are prevented.
- FIG. 1 shows the application of two armpit pouches (1 , a for the right side, b for the left) filled with completed baby nutrition, which are held on shoulder straps (4a and 4b) and where the hose (3) leads to a suction nipple (2 in Fig. 2), the shank (7 in Fig.2) of which carries circumferential notches (8 - 10 in Fig. 2), wherein a shield (6 in Fig. 3) can be inserted.
- the pouches (1a and 1b) are flexible and shaped to fit into the armpit of a parent or caregiver ( ⁇ 120 ml / 8 oz).
- the shoulder strap (4a and 4b) can be adjustable in length and carries a non-slip layer on its underside, or is secured with an additional holding strap (not shown) around the upper arm, or a connecting band between two units behind the neck of the feeding person.
- FIG. 2 shows a suction nipple (2) with a thickened portion (5) at the shank (7) and three circumferential notches (8-10).
- FIG. 3 shows a push-on shield (6) for placement onto the shank (7 in Fig. 2) of the suction nipple (2 in Fig. 2).
- the shield (6) has a key-shaped cutout (11, 12) with a midsection opening (13) and an upper narrowed opening (14).
- the shield (6) may be attached to the shank (7) by inserting the shank (7) into the key- shaped cutout (11 , 12) of the shield (6). Positioning the shield (6) within the rst circumferential notch (8) minimally restrict fluid flow to the suction nipple (2), while positioning it within the middle notch (9) or the last notch (10) further constricts the shank's cross-section and thus further restricts fluid flow to the suction nipple (2).
- the key-shaped cutout (11 , 12) of the shield (6) has a widely contoured midsection opening (13) that narrows to upper narrowed opening (14).
- Insertion of the shank (7) into the midsection opening (13) provides less restriction to fluid flow, while insertion of the shank(7) into the upper narrowed opening (14) provides greater restriction to fluid flow.
- the notches (8-10) along the thickened portion (5) of the shank (7) and the two openings (13, 14) within the shield (6) provide users with the ability to selectively control fluid flow to the suction nipple (2). For example, insertion of the shank's first circumferential notch (8) into the midsection opening (13) of the shield's key- shaped cutout (11 , 12) provides minimal fluid flow restriction. Insertion of the shank's last circumferential notch (10) in the upper narrowed opening (14) provides complete blockage of fluid throughput.
