Description

The utility model relates to means for feeding children, the elderly and people with disabilities, in particular, to containers in the form of a tube for puree nutrition, as well as for liquids, juices and water.

The closest analogue of the claimed utility model is the technical solution described in the text of the patent US 5799808, containing a pacifier, the housing has corrugated walls, a removable bottom and a plate moving inside the housing.

However, this solution has a complex and time-consuming design, because requires corrugated walls and the additional manufacture of a removable bottom.

The technical problem to which the claimed utility model is directed is to create simple and convenient packaging for feeding children, the elderly and people with disabilities.

The technical result of the utility model is to increase operational characteristics, including due to the simplification of the packaging design.

The specified technical result is achieved due to the fact that the package for baby food contains a cylindrical body, the first end of which has a sucking part, and the second end has a hole, a plate is placed inside the body, made tightly adjacent to the inner walls of the body and can be moved towards the first the end of the housing in the presence of an external suction force from the side of the suction part and the possibility of fixing in the housing in the absence of an external suction force, while the plate is provided with a locking their projections.

The locking tabs may be made of metal or plastic.

The locking protrusions may be located below the plate along the perimeter of the plate.

The plate may contain a sealing rim.

The locking protrusions can be made sawtooth, comb and / or bent to the side opposite from the sucking part.

The plate may be made of elastic material.

Thanks to the use of the plate, its free sliding inside the package body is ensured in the presence of an external suction force, making it possible to use the package conveniently and without the help of hands, including without resorting to outside help. At the same time, due to the tight fit of the plate to the inner walls of the housing, the contents of the package do not leak at the contact point between the housing and the plate, maintaining the tightness of the inner space of the housing in which the food is located, preventing foreign substances from entering inside, ensuring hygiene and prolonging the shelf life of the product. Due to the fixing protrusions, the plate is firmly held inside the case in the absence of external suction force and prevents displacement when creating external pressure from the side of the suction part, for example, if the child wants to blow into the package, the plate will remain in place and the contents inside the case, thus protecting the contents packaging from unintentional spilling. In addition, the inventive package allows you to use smooth walls of the housing without any protrusions to hold the plate inside and abandon the second bottom, which greatly simplifies the design of the package.

The implementation of the plate from an elastic material will ensure its additional mobility and further improve the sealing of the package as a whole due to an additional more tight fit to the walls of the housing.

The inventive utility model is illustrated using FIG. 1-9, which depict:

FIG. 1 - general view of the package;

FIG. 2 - general view of the plate;

FIG. 3 is a side view of the plate;

FIG. 4 is a bottom view of a plate;

In FIG. 1-9 positions 1-5 are indicated:

1 - housing;

2 - sucking part;

3 - hole;

4 - plate;

5 - fixing protrusions.

The package for baby food contains a cylindrical body 1, the first end of which has a suction part 2, and the second end has a hole 3. Inside the body 1 there is a plate 4 made with the possibility of movement towards the first end of the body 1 in the presence of an external suction force from the side of the sucker part 2 and the possibility of fixation in the absence of external suction force. The plate 4 is made of an elastic material and fits snugly against the inner walls of the housing 1. The plate 4 is provided with fixing protrusions 5. For a snug fit to the walls of the housing 1, only the edges of the plate 4 can be made elastic, which are adjacent to the machines of the housing 1.

The design of the housing 1 and its form factor may be different depending on the contents of the package. The housing 1 is made of solid inelastic food-grade plastic, does not bend, does not leak. If necessary, the housing 1 can be made of coated metal suitable for food. Food plastic may be in a color opaque or transparent design to see the location of the plate 4, the position of which will determine the amount of remaining content in the package. The housing 1 may be of different colors, contain a printed image or have an external shape, for example, in the form of animals, fairy-tale characters or game items. The housing 1 may also be made of glass. The cross section of the housing 1 can be round, oval or other, which can ensure sliding of the plate 4 along the walls of the housing 1 in the presence of an external suction force and in its absence, a snug fit of the plate 4 to the inner walls of the housing 1.

The locking protrusions 5 may be located under the plate 4, as shown in FIG. 2. For increased tightness, the locking protrusions can be located at the end of the plate 4, forming a kind of layered structure in which the elastic plate 4 will be located above and below, and the locking protrusions 7 between. To facilitate sliding of the plate 4, the part with the locking protrusions 5 can be located around its perimeter, leaving a section of elastic material in the center of the plate 4, which, under the influence of an external suction force and vacuum, inside the housing 1 will deform, bending towards the sucking part 2 and entrain plate 4 as a whole.

The plate 4 around its perimeter for additional tightness may be provided with a sealing rim, for example, of silicone.

The locking protrusions 5 may be made of metal or rigid plastic.

The locking protrusions 5 can be made sawtooth, comb, bent to the side opposite from the suction part, to provide improved fixation.

The suction part 2 can be made in the form of a nipple or hole for putting on the nipple, as well as in the form of a fitting on which the lid is screwed. The suction part may differ in the diameter of the hole for using this design for liquids, juices, water: a small diameter for water, large for mashed potatoes. This diameter, which will separate the bottles according to their application (liquid-puree), can determine the diameter of the body 1, or the body 1 can have a pacifier, which is equipped with a different diameter for the puree and water. The suction part 2 can be made removable and attached to the housing 1, for example, by means of a thread or snap.

The hole 3 may be the same size as the housing 1 or may be smaller depending on the form factor and contents of the package.

The inventive packaging is disposable. The packaging may contain mashed potatoes, yogurt, drinks and other suitable foods.

The device is used as follows.

Initially, the plate 4 is located in the housing 1 from the side of the hole 3 (Fig. 6). Inside the housing 1 between the plate 4 and the sucking part 2 is located, for example, a pureed feeding mixture. From the side of the suction part 3 create a suction force. Due to the tight fit of the plate 4 to the inner walls of the housing 1, air suction from outside does not occur, and a vacuum is generated between the suction part 2 and the plate 4 inside the housing 1. In an effort to equalize the pressure inside the housing 1 and beyond, the plate 4 is displaced along the inner walls of the housing 1 towards the sucking part 2. At the same time, the contents of the package enter through the sucking part 2. The hole 3 provides inside the housing 1 between the plate 4 and the second end of the housing 1 from the side of the opening 3 the same pressure as outside the housing 1. After the suction force ceases, the plate 4 stops and is fixed on the inner walls of the housing 1 by the locking protrusions 5 (Fig. 7 -8). The creation of excess pressure inside the housing 1, for example, when the child tries to blow through the suction part 2, does not move the plate 4 back to the second end of the housing 1 with the hole 3 due to the locking protrusions 5. When all possible contents of the package exit, the plate 4 moves to the sucking part 2 of the body 1, where it remains fixed (Fig. 9).

The housing 1 can be made 150 mm in height and 30-50 mm in diameter.

The given example is a special case and does not exhaust all possible implementations of the utility model.

The inventive packaging has low material and labor-intensive manufacturing, simplicity and ease of use, high hygiene and a wide range of food placed in it.
