DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an infant beverage container.
More particularly, the present invention relates to a baby beverage container for feeding a baby by mixing an emulsion in a container with a container body containing a liquid.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, infant formula such as skim milk powder and formula milk powder has a high solubility in water, a good miscibility, and a protein is softened by heating. It is widely used as a nutritional supplement for infants. And, in this usage method, after measuring the required amount of milk powder in the baby bottle, hot water or water is poured into the baby bottle, and then the opening of the baby bottle is sealed with a nipple with a cap, and the bottle is put in hot water or air. The milk powder dissolves in water by shaking the baby bottle. After that, the cap of the nipple was removed and the infant was given an infant drink. However, such a method of breastfeeding infants is unsanitary because the milk powder is dissolved in water in the air for drinking, and there is a risk that various bacteria in the air may be mixed into the milk powder during the preparation. In addition, since the milk powder must be measured and dissolved in water every time the baby is fed, there is a danger that the mixture may be wrong. Moreover, the nipple before use must be disinfected with hot water at the time of use, so operation is troublesome,
There are various problems such as that it takes time to feed a baby.

[0003] The present inventor has developed a baby drink container which solves these problems and stores a baby drink in which powdered milk has been previously dissolved in a liquid in advance and stores it in a closed state to feed the baby. Although a patent application was filed as Japanese Patent Application No. Hei 7-43702, an infant beverage previously dissolved in a liquid has a storage period of only about one month, and has a disadvantage that the infant beverage is denatured after the storage period. The present invention has been made to solve these problems, and its purpose is to provide an infant with a simple operation of sanitarily mixing a liquid stored in a container body in advance and an emulsion hermetically sealed in the container. It is intended to provide a container capable of feeding.

That is, according to the present invention, the outer wall of the opening of the container neck is made of a luer taper or a male screw, and the opening is sealed with a peelable seal member, and the liquid is contained inside. Is provided, and a solid emulsion is accommodated therein, and a luer taper or a female screw which can be fitted or screwed with a luer taper or a male screw formed on the outer wall of the container neck is provided on the inner wall. And a container for the baby. Further, the present invention provides the infant beverage container, wherein the container comprises an inner cap and a nipple provided at a head opening thereof, and the inner wall of a rear opening of the inner cap is fitted or screwed to an outer wall of the container neck. Lure to do
This is a baby beverage container formed with a taper or an internal thread. Further, the present invention provides the infant beverage container,
This is a baby beverage container having a solid emulsion contained in an inner cap. Still further, in the present invention, in the above-mentioned infant beverage container, the closure of the container is composed of a lamination sheet of a peeling sheet and a fragile sheet, and before the container and the container neck are fitted or screwed together. This is a baby beverage container for breaking a fragile sheet by peeling off a peeling sheet and fitting or screwing a container and a container body. Further, the present invention provides the infant beverage container,
An infant beverage container wherein the closing body of the container is formed of an openable and closable valve body, and the valve body opens as the container and the container body are fitted or screwed together.

[0005] Further, according to the present invention, in the above-mentioned infant beverage container, the closure of the container is composed of a peeling sheet and a lam- inate of a fragile sheet, and the container and the container body are fitted or screwed together. This is a baby beverage container that breaks a fragile sheet by peeling off a peeling sheet and fitting or screwing a container and a container body together. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the infant beverage container, wherein the closing body of the container is formed of an openable and closable valve body, and the valve body opens as the container and the container body are fitted or screwed together. Container.

FIG. 1 is a front view of a container main body showing an example of the present invention. The container main body 1 is provided with a container main body 1 for storing a liquid 2 and a male screw 4 screwed with a female screw 8 of a container 7 in FIG. It has a container neck 3 provided and an opening 5 in which a peelable seal member 6 is provided. The container body 1 contains a liquid 2 to be mixed with the emulsion 10. Examples of the liquid include water or hot water, or liquids containing nutrients such as amino acids and oligosaccharides therein. The container is made of a blow-resin made of synthetic resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, polyamide, and polyvinyl chloride.
It can be obtained by a method such as molding or injection molding. Container body 1
There is a scale on the outside wall. The container opening 5 is provided with a peelable seal member 6 for preventing the liquid 2 contained in the container body 1 from flowing out. As the seal member 6, for example, an aluminum foil or a thin aluminum foil laminated with an aluminum foil or the like, which can be easily peeled off by hand, is used.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing an example of the container 7, comprising a female screw 8 screwed with the male screw 4 of the container neck portion 3 of FIG. 1 and a cap body 11 containing an emulsion 10 therein. The body is a valve body 9 that can be opened and closed by the male screw 4 at the neck of the container.
And is separated from the female screw 8 by The emulsion 10 is accommodated in the cap body 8. The opening of the container 7 is sealed with a cover sheet 12 which can be easily peeled off so that bacteria do not enter from the outside. The valve body 9 is made of a synthetic resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, polyamide, or polyvinyl chloride, synthetic rubber, or the like. As shown in FIG. 3, the male screw 4 of the container neck 3 and the female screw 8 of the container 7 are screwed together. Proceeds, the tip opening of the male screw 4 pushes up the valve body 9, and the emulsion 10 contained in the cap body 11 is dropped into the liquid 2 of the container body 1 to mix the emulsion 10 and the liquid 2. . In FIG. 2, the emulsion 10 is described as a solid emulsion in the form of a pellet, but may be milk powder instead of the solid emulsion. Examples of the shape of the solid emulsion include various shapes such as one lump, many cylindrical rods, pellets, and corners.

FIG. 4 shows the inner cap 13 with the nipple 15 attached.
The female screw 16 is provided on the inner wall near the opening of the inner cap 13 so as to screw with the male screw 4 of the container neck 3. The outer cap 14 covers the nipple 15 and the inner cap 13. Inner cap 13
A sealing member such as an O-ring 18 is provided adjacent to the upper portion of the female screw 16 of the female screw 16 to prevent the baby drink from leaking from the gap between the inner cap 13 and the container neck 3. After the emulsion 10 has been mixed with the liquid 2 in FIG. 3 and the container 7 has been removed from the neck of the container, the cover sheet 17 of the inner cap 13 in FIG.
Remove the inner cap 13 covered with the outer cap 14
