Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to an improved pacifier for infants.

Pacifiers that are applied to infants other than when breastfeeding have conventionally had a rubber nipple fixed to a holder, and this holder has a grip handle, which the infant can hold in his/her hand and put in his or her mouth. It looks like it's being done.

However, in conventional pacifiers, a part of the holder protrudes integrally into a rod shape, so if an infant leans forward with the nipple in their mouth and falls down, the holder may get stuck in the mouth, or There was a danger that the nipple would pierce her throat.

In view of this, the present invention is designed to prevent infants from falling forward while holding it in their mouths, or from colliding with objects and hitting their throats, and which is easy to hold in the hand and has a variety of uses when playing with it. The purpose of this pacifier was to relieve monotony and provide a pacifier that could be kept on the pacifier until it was time to breastfeed. The holder is composed of a collar plate and a nipple fixing rod, so that the base of the nipple can be fixed in an irremovable manner by the collar plate and the nipple fixing rod, and a grip handle can be freely rotated on the nipple fixing rod. As a result, even if the infant falls with the nipple in its mouth, the collar plate prevents anything other than the nipple from entering during the day, and at the same time, the grip handle rotates to reduce the impact, and even if the infant bites and pulls the nipple. It will never come off, and this ensures excellent safety.

The present invention will be explained below with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.

The pacifier 1 according to the present invention includes a hollow nipple 2 made of a highly elastic material such as rubber, a holder 3 that fixes and holds the base 2a of the nipple 2, and a pacifier 3 that is rotatably attached to the bottom surface of the holder 3. The holder 3 and the handle 4 are made of synthetic resin.

The holder 3 is made up of a collar plate 5 and a nipple fixing rod 6, and the collar plate 5 has a larger area than the infant's mouth.
As shown in the figure, it has a through hole 7 in the center thereof through which the base 2a of the nipple 2 is inserted, and a peripheral protrusion 8 at the lower end of the inner circumference of the through hole 7, and an annular wall portion spaced apart from this. 9, and a recess 11 into which the annular thick part 10 at the lower end of the nipple 2 is fitted is formed between the recesses 9.

As shown in FIG. 4, the nipple fixing rod 6 includes a bulging head 12 that is press-fitted into the base 2a of the nipple 2, and a protrusion formed on the inner peripheral surface of the annular wall 9 of the collar plate 5. 13, and an outer peripheral surface between the bulging head 12 and the opening 15, which faces the inner peripheral surface of the through hole 7 of the collar plate 5. Moreover, protrusions 16, 16 are formed therebetween, which may have a gap smaller than the wall thickness of the base 2a of the nipple 2, and when the protrusion 15 engages with the protrusion 13 of the annular wall portion 9, the bulging head The outer peripheral edge 12a of 12 is positioned slightly higher than the upper opening edge 7a of the through hole 7 of the collar plate 5.

Therefore, the base 2a of the nipple 2 is inserted into the through hole 7 of the collar plate 5, the annular thick part 10 is positioned in the recess 11, and then the bulging head 12 of the nipple fixing rod 6 is press-fitted from the lower end of the nipple 2. Then, the bulging head 12 comes out from the through hole 7 of the collar plate 5, and the nipple 2 is inserted between the outer peripheral edge 12a of the bulging head 12 and the upper opening edge 7a of the through hole 7. The nipple is bent and deformed in the opposite direction and pinched, and the nipple is pinched between the protrusions 16, 16 and the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 7, and the annular thick part 10 of the nipple 2
By being pressed into the recess 11 of the collar plate 5, it is fixed so that it cannot be easily pulled out.

According to this fixing means, even if the nipple 2 is pulled with a force of about 5 Ky or more, it can be attached without easily coming off.

A grip handle insertion hole 17 is bored at the lower end of the nipple fixing rod 6.

The grip handle 4 is annular as shown in FIG. 6, and a portion of the grip handle 4 is cut away, and the portion where cut-off parts 17a, 17a are provided is formed into a straight rod part 18, and in this cut-off part 17a, It is rotatably attached by being inserted into the grip handle insertion hole 17.

A grip 19 is inserted through the straight rod portion 18 so as to be freely rotatable.

This grip 19 is divided into two in the axial direction, and the straight rod portion 18
It can be attached by fitting the two pieces from both sides and fixing the two pieces by adhesive or other means.

Since the present invention has the above-described structure, when an infant holds it in their hand and sucks, the grip handle 4 is annular so that they can insert their fingers into it and grasp it. Even if the user leans forward and falls, the grip handle 4 collides with the user first, which cushions the impact and prevents the danger of the tip of the nipple 2 hitting the user's throat.

Furthermore, as in the illustrated embodiment, by attaching the grip 19 to the grip handle 4 so that it can rotate freely, it becomes easier for the baby to grasp the grip, and even if the baby collides with an object, the grip rotates and absorbs the impact, making it safer. .

As described above, according to the present invention, since the grip handle is rotatably attached to the nipple holder, even if the infant falls forward with the nipple in his mouth or collides with an object, the holder will not be exposed to sunlight. This eliminates the risk of the baby getting stuck in the baby's mouth or hitting someone's throat with the nipple, and since the handle is rotatable, it can be held in one's hands and played with in a variety of ways. I have nothing to do.

In addition, in this invention, there is a hole that fixes the nipple. The nipple consists of a collar plate made of a hard material having an area larger than the infant's mouth and a nipple fixing rod, and the collar plate is provided with a through hole through which the base of the nipple is inserted, and the lower part of the through hole is provided with a through hole through which the base of the nipple is inserted. A peripheral protrusion projecting downward and an annular wall portion having a larger diameter are formed to form a recess into which a thick annular portion formed on the outer periphery of the base of the nipple is fitted, and the nipple fixing rod has a recess for fitting the nipple. A bulging head press-fitted into the base, a prong that can engage with the annular wall, and a through hole formed on the outer peripheral surface between the head and the prong, with a gap smaller than the wall thickness of the base of the nipple. an annular protrusion facing the inner peripheral surface of the flange plate, and when the opening engages with the annular wall portion, the outer peripheral edge of the bulging head is located slightly above the upper opening edge of the through hole of the collar plate. Since the nipple is bent outward to prevent it from being pulled out, even if the infant bites the nipple hard and arches it, the nipple will remain between the outer periphery of the bulging head and the upper opening edge of the through hole in the collar plate. It will not come out unless the nipple is cut, and on the other hand, even if you try to push it in during the day, the collar plate has a large area, so you can't insert anything other than the nipple during the day, making it extremely safe. There are various effects such as:
