Description

The invention relates to light industry, namely to a drinking bowl.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A drinker is the first drinking device used by a child. From publication RU 44616, a mug-shaped drinker is known, comprising a lid and a drinking spout in the form of a flattened tube whose walls are perpendicular to the lid and the oval edge is horizontal. The nose must be held tight by the lips, bringing the corners together until a “tube” is formed. The muscle of the mouth can form it only in the center of the mouth. The upper lip needs to grasp the half of the nose, located above this center of the mouth. Why it must be passed into the mouth, lifting the upper jaw, that is, unbending the head, relative to the lower jaw,

In addition, to the nose with a horizontal edge, the lips need to be reached, pushing the head forward to meet him. If the head is not pulled out, the edge of the nose can be delivered to the lips, tilting the mug to the horizontal position of the walls of the nose, the liquid will spill. In the prototype, it is a polymer drinking bowl of Medpolymertorg LLC, product passport TU 9398-004-18388175-2006, Reg. beats No. ФСР 2011/10487, production date 02/09/2012, containing a cup with handles, half-cap, - the spout for drinking inclined to the half-cap, its upper wall is located at an obtuse angle to the half-cap. The tip of the nose is directed towards the user, horizontal head movement is excluded, which coincides with the essential features of the claimed invention. The disadvantages of the prototype: the need for the lips to also create a "tube" to grip the nose, which extends the head, and a blunt angle of inclination of the plane of the edge of the nose to its upper wall. The protruding lower wall of the nose first touches the cut of the mouth and is placed on the lower lip. A man opens his mouth to let an object pass into his mouth, lowering his jaw. If you fix it (for example, support the chin with your hand), then you can open the mouth by moving the head relative to the lower jaw. The nose of the drinker fixes the lower lip and chin; the jaw cannot lower to allow the nose to pass into the mouth. The head needs to straighten “from the chest” so that the upper lip is raised so that it can let the nose into your mouth. In the extension “from the chin”, the angle of the chin-surface of the neck remains straight, the upper lip does not rise and the nose cannot pass.

It is known that posture muscles cannot hold an unbalanced head located in the extension from the chest for a long time. Using a drinking bowl may exceed this allowable time. An adult, holding a pathological position, controls the balance of the tone of the posture muscles, regularly performing the exercise Toad. The child will not be able to stretch the muscles of the back of the neck to the sensation of discomfort in the back of the head. The teacher can control the child's posture by giving him a drinker that does not violate the posture. A nose that can be fixed on the upper lip is the object of the invention. A nose having a flat upper wall with an edge in the form of a segment, the plane of which is inclined at an acute angle to the upper wall, is the solution to the problem of the invention.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

According to paragraph 1 of the claims, a cup is provided comprising a cup with handles, a half-cap, a drinking spout, with an upper wall inclined to the half-cap located at an obtuse angle α to it. The upper wall of the spout for drinking is flat, the lower wall of the spout is made in the form of a half cylinder. The edge of the spout for drinking has the shape of a segment with a height of less than 1 cm, and its plane is made at an acute angle β relative to the upper wall of the spout.

Further, a detailed description of the invention is presented with drawings: FIG. 1-3 is an isometric cup according to the invention, top view, section AA, BB, FIG. 4 - prototype drinker, FIG. 5-7 - at the top of the drinker according to the invention, in comparison with the prototype below. The prototype is number 11, the spout for drinking the prototype is 55, the edge of the prototype spout is 66.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

In FIG. 1, 2, 3 presents a cup 1 according to the invention, comprising a cup with handles, a half-cap 3, a drinking spout 4 with an upper wall 5 inclined to the half-cap located at an obtuse angle α to it. The upper wall 5 of the spout for drinking 4 is flat, the lower wall 7 of the spout 4 is made in the form of a half cylinder. The edge 6 of the spout for drinking 4 has the shape of a segment 10 with a height of less than 1 cm, and its plane is made at an acute angle β relative to the upper wall 5.

In FIG. 4 drinker prototype 11 manufactured by LLC Medpolimertorg. The disadvantages of the prototype are clearly visible: the nose 44 with the edge 66 in the form of a circle and a blunt angle of inclination of the plane of the edge 66 to the upper wall 55, which is better seen in FIG. 5-7, below. Like the coinciding essential feature of the claimed invention is the upper wall of the drinking nozzle, inclined to the half-cap, located at an obtuse angle α to it.

In FIG. 5-7 at the top of the cup 1 according to the invention in operation. The inclination of the plane of the edge 6 of the nozzle 4 allows you to deliver its flat upper wall 5 exactly to the section of the mouth. The chord 8 of the edge 6 in the form of a segment 10 of the spout for drinking 4 is fixed at the upper lip. Arc 9 of segment 10 is located at the lower lip. The user lowers the jaw, passing the spout for drinking 4 into his mouth, and fixes his flat upper wall 5 at the upper incisors. The upper lip has wide support to the corners of the lips, it does not rise, remains flat, the head remains neutral. The angle of the chin-neck surface is straight 88. The corners of the lips are at the level of the outer edge of the canines. But optimally, the length of the chord 8 of the edge 6 in the form of a segment 10 is chosen equal to the width of the 4 upper incisors so that the flat upper wall 5 fits between the canines protruding relative to the incisors. The edge 6 in the form of a segment 10 allows you to have a width of the upper wall of 2 cm or less. Knowing the average dimensions of the width of the 4 upper incisors of milk and permanent teeth, you can make the upper wall of the spout of two sizes of width in drinking bowls for children and adults.

At the bottom of the drawing for comparison is the work of the prototype filet: the edge 66 of the drinking spout 44 of the drinker 11 is inclined at an obtuse angle to the upper wall 55. The inclination of the edge 66 is opposite to the profile of the lower lip. Such a nose can be fixed only at the lower lip, which will cause the head to straighten “from the chest”. In FIG. 6 below is a prototype drinker trapped in the mouth. It can be seen that the lips are tense, forming a "tube" for a tight girth of the nose with the edge of the circle. The head in extension "from the chest", the angle of the chin-neck surface 89 is more than straight.

You can compare the position of the corners of the lips 22 relative to the tray point 2. In FIG. 5 at the top and bottom, the corners of the lips 22 are equally distant from the tray point 2. In FIG. 6, 7 at the top, when using the cup according to the invention, the corners of the lips 22 relative to the tray point 2 did not change position. In FIG. 6 below the corners of the lips 22 are already on the same vertical with the tray point 2, the head is in extension "from the chest". In FIG. 7 it can be seen that the drinkers at the moment of the end of the transshipment are inclined equally to the user's nose. But in the drawing below, the corners of the lips 2 protrude forward relative to the tray point 22, which means that the head is in an even more extension “from the chest”.
