Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to containers, but more particularly to an ergonomic leakproof travel container.
  • Baby feeding containers are a typical and useful application of the art. Babies and infants alike eat several times a day and food is necessary when traveling away from home. As well known, most baby food is in puree form and a leakproof container is necessary for this type of food storage. Also, in most situations and especially in regards to small infants and babies, the child is held in one hand and fed with the other requiring the need for one-hand feeding. Consequently, there is a need for an ergonomic leakproof travel container facilitating a one-hand feeding method.
  • FR2827579 describes a plastic container comprising a body, a lid connected to the container via a hinge, and a closure.
  • the periphery of the lid is provided with a groove that receives an edge of the body when the lid is closed.
  • An internal compartment is moulded into the lid and is used to receive objects such as cutlery for example.
  • the internal compartment is closed by a flap in the upper face of the cover.

  • the leakproof travel container comprises a body member 101 and an outer lid 102 hingedly attached to the body member via hinge member 104.
  • the body member has a continuous side wall having a general oval shape.
  • an ergonomic concave portion 101A situated on the front side of the body member is configured to be positioned in a hand of a user during use, preferably the palm of the hand. This is a particular advantage of the present invention as it conveniently allows the user to utilize the one-handing feeding method as previously discussed.
  • the outer lid has a rounded perimeter edge 102A.
  • the body member includes a plurality of feet 105 on a bottom surface of the body member to aid in traction when the container is placed on a surface, such as a table or counter.
  • a latch member 103 is attached to the body member and secures the outer lid in a closed position as illustrated. The latch member will be discussed in greater detail below.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the ergonomic leakproof travel container with the outer lid in an open position according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • the outer lid and latch member are in an open position revealing an inner lid 106.
  • the inner lid is hingedly attached to the body member via hinge member 104.
  • the hinge member comprises a first bar 126 ( FIG. 4B ) structurally attached to the back side of the body member.
  • the outer lid comprises a first plurality of hinge hooks 104A
  • the inner lid comprises a second plurality of hinge hooks 104B, wherein both the first and second pluralities of hinge hooks are configured to hook around the first bar. This allows independent action between the outer and inner lid utilizing a single hinge member.
  • the inner lid comprises a flange portion 106A having a plurality of holes 109 spaced circumferenly around the flange portion.
  • a removable feeding utensil 107 such as a spoon, fork, or spork, is press fit in a feeding utensil insert 108 located on the top surface of the inner lid.
  • the feeding utensil insert includes a plurality of vertical ridges 108A ( FIG. 6 ) to secure the removable feeding utensil in place.
  • the feeding utensil insert is shaped like the removable feeding utensil.
  • a first gasket 110 ( FIG.
  • 3A comprises a plurality of locking caps 111 positioned through the plurality of holes configured to hold the first gasket in place as well as to prevent the first gasket from sticking to the body member when the inner and outer lid are in an opened position.
  • the first gasket will be discussed in greater detail below.
  • FIGS. 3A-C are various perspective views of a chambered storage insert 112 of the ergonomic leakproof travel container according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • the chambered storage insert is revealeded when the outer and inner lids are in an opened position.
  • the chambered storage insert is removable and configured to store and transport at least two types of foods and/or liquids depending on the internal configurations.
  • the chambered storage insert comprises a divider 116 separating the chambered storage insert into a first and second storage chamber 114 and 115 respectively.
  • the divider includes space 117 further separating the first and second storage chambers, this helps insulate the chambers from each other which is especially beneficial when hot and cold food items are stored in respective containers. It should be understood, in alternative embodiments, multiple dividers may be present permitting more storage chambers.
  • the chambered storage insert comprises a body wall 113 sized and shaped to press fit into the body member. A second gasket 118 fit in the body wall is provided, and will be discussed in greater detail below.
  • FIGS. 4A-C are various section and detail views of the ergonomic leakproof travel container according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 4A is a front section view of the ergonomic leakproof travel container. Referring to FIG. 4A , divider 116 and space 117 can be clearly seen. Also in this view, it can be seen that when outer lid 102 is in a closed position, a portion of the outer lid is pressed against inner lid 106 at pressure point 131. As previously mentioned the latch member secures the outer lid in a closed position. When the latch is secure, the outer lid is pressed against inner lid generating two leakproof seals with the first and second gaskets 110 and 118. Further details of the latch and gaskets will be discussed in greater detail below.
  • FIG. 4B is a side section view of the ergonomic leakproof travel container. Referring now to FIG. 4B , the details of the latch member are illustrated. Specifically, latch member 103 is rotatable around second bar 127, and includes a raised edge 103A configured to snap on lip 102C formed by recessed portion 10213 located in the outer lid.
  • FIG. 4C is a detailed view of FIG. 4B .
  • the first gasket comprises a first protrusion 123 and second protrusion 124.
  • the first gasket provides a first leakproof seal between rim 101B and an inner horizontal surface 128 via the first protrusion, a second leakproof seal between inner surface 120 and inner vertical surface 129 via the second protrusion, and a third leakproof seal between the rim and rib 106B.
  • the shape and construction of flange 106A of the inner lid creates cavity 125 having the inner horizontal and inner vertical surfaces.
  • the rib located on the underside of the flange on the inner horizontal surface helps compress the first gasket against the rim of the body member.
  • one rib is provided, however it is understood that more than one rib may be provided to add pressure on the first gasket between the rim of the body member.
  • the first gasket further comprises a plurality of locking caps 111 positioned through the plurality of holes configured to hold the first gasket in place as well as to prevent the first gasket from sticking to the body member when the first and second lid are in an opened position.
  • the second gasket comprises a third protrusion 121 and fourth protrusion 122.
  • the second gasket provides a fourth leakproof seal between a top surface 130 of the body wall of the chambered storage insert and a lower rim 106C of the inner lid, and a fifth leakproof seal between inner surface 120 and the outer surface of the body wall of chambered storage insert via the third protrusion.
  • the fourth protrusion is inserted into slot 119 located on the top surface of the body wall of the chambered storage insert, this keeps the second gasket in place when the chambered storage insert is removed from the body member during use.
  • the second gasket is combined with the chambered storage insert via overmolding.
  • all the structural components of the invention are constructed from a rigid BPA-free plastic.
  • the rigid BPA-free plastic is a food grade copolyester plastic, such as Tritan® from Eastman Chemical.
  • all the structural components of the invention are constructed from a rigid EA-free plastic.
  • the structural components have a translucent polished finish in a 10% color saturation.
  • the structural components are opaque, including 100% opacity.
  • the structural components are transparent.
  • the first and second gaskets are constructed from a food-grade silicone.
  • the first and second gaskets are made from a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). A variety of colors may be used, but since the intended use is for feeding infants and small children a pink or blue shade is preferred.
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the ergonomic leakproof travel container with both the inner and outer lid in an open position according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • both the inner and outer lid is in a completely open position.
  • This is a particular advantage of the present invention, as in this position when the lids are completely open and extended backwards touching a surface (not illustrated) the container is resting on, the lids act as a counterbalance keeping the container upright.
  • the positioned and angle of the plurality of feet acts in conjunction with the lids preventing the container from tipping when on a flat surface. This allows a user to use the container and removable utensil to remove any stored food as well as placing the removable utensil inside the container without the container tipping over.
  • the labels such as left, right, front, back, top, bottom, forward, reverse, clockwise, counter clockwise, up, down, or other similar terms such as upper, lower, aft, fore, vertical, horizontal, oblique, proximal, distal, parallel, perpendicular, transverse, longitudinal, etc. have been used for convenience purposes only and are not intended to imply any particular fixed direction or orientation.
