Description

Anti-colic feeding bottle {Anti-Colic Feeding Bottle}

The present invention relates to an anti-colic feeding bottle, and more particularly, to an anti-colic feeding bottle including a structure that prevents outside air from coming into contact with powdered milk in the bottle.

In general, feeding bottles for infants and toddlers pursue the convenience of feeding, prevent deterioration of powdered milk, and are developed for ease of cleaning.

The type of material is made of various materials such as nipple: rubber (silicone), baby bottle: PP/PESU/PPSU/glass.

All baby bottles are made of BPA-Free material, which is an endocrine disruptor, and non-toxic and durable with a heat resistance temperature of 120°C.

This not only makes it possible to more safely store all liquid feeding materials, including breast milk and powdered milk, inside the bottle, but also suitable for disinfection using a microwave or UV sterilizer as well as boiling water sterilization due to its heat resistance.

On the other hand, there is a problem that can cause diseases such as colic when infants inhale air together with breastfeeding substances during breastfeeding and do not burp after breastfeeding.

In the case of colic, it can be caused by swallowing too much air or having gas in the stomach while breastfeeding.

Specifically, colic (infant colic, infantile colic), which is a common symptom when bottle-feeding, refers to a feeling of bloating or pain felt when gas is excessively filled in the stomach.

As shown in FIG. 1 , a baby bottle according to the prior art forms a small hole around the nipple to allow only air to enter, or introduces air into the baby bottle through a small hole at the mouth of the baby bottle to prevent colic.

However, in reality, air is blown directly into the powdered milk through this hole to create bubbles, and air spores are created in the powdered milk, causing an oxidation process. As shown in (a) of FIG. 1, when air enters around the nipple, air spores are generated in the powdered milk and the powdered milk undergoes an oxidation process. Also, in the case of (b) in which air is drawn in around the nipple, air spores are generated in the powdered milk and the powdered milk undergoes an oxidation process.

As a result, since air is included in the powdered milk, infants must be burped for digestion after feeding, and above all, there is a problem that the stored milk powder cannot be stored for a long time due to fear of deterioration due to contact with outside air.

Therefore, there is a need for a technique capable of solving the above-mentioned problems according to the prior art.
