HOLDER FOR NURSING BOTTLES Filed July 9, 1937 4 Inden brv Jerfifl'MElzdeg Patented Mar. 7, 1939 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE one-half to Lawrence J.
Darms, Woodbury,
'Application July 9, 1937, Serial No. 152,711
2 Claims.
This invention relates to holders for nursing bottles, and it relates more particularly to a nursing bottle support which'is simple in construction yet efficient for its intended purpose.
Heretofore, in the use of nursing bottles for the feeding of babies, it has been more or less customary to provide makeshift pads, by folding diapers or other suitable cloths, whereby the bottle could be properly positioned for the feeding of the baby. Also various forms of holders have been proposed for this purpose, but none of these have proved entirely satisfactory.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a holder or support for a nursing bottle which will permit the bottle to be readily and easily adjusted with respect to the support, so that the bottle may be positioned most advantageously for the feeding of a baby.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a simple form of support for a nursing bottle, which is so constructed and arranged that the bottle may be readily shifted with respect to the support as may be required under various circumstances.
A further object of the invention is to provide a support for nursing bottles which is so constructed and arranged as to cause a minimum of discomfort to the baby while being fed from a bottle mounted in the support.
The nature and characteristic features of the invention will be more readily understood from the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing forming part hereof, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a nursing bottle holder embodying the main features of the present invention, a nursing bottle of a common type being shown in operative position therein;
Fig. 2 is a sectional view thereof taken longi- 40 tudinally with respect to the bottle;
Fig. 3 is an elevation of the holder, with the bottle removed;
Fig. 4 is a top or plan view of the holder; and
Fig. 5 is an elevation of a modified form of a holder particularly adapted for supporting bottles of a hexagonal shape, the bottle being shown in place therein.
Referring to the drawing, in the particular embodiment of the invention there shown, the holder comprises a body In which may be molded of any suitable material, or shaped from a block, or if preferred, the same may be made hollow to lighten the weight thereof. The body I0 is provided with uprights I I, forming a channel therebetween within which the bottle I2 is adapted to be positionecl. The under surface I3 of the body I!) is slightly convex in a direction parallel to the major axis of the bottle I2, and is concave in a direction transverse to said axis.
At the top of each of the uprights ll there is provided a fastening device, such as a screw M, forming a means of attachment for an elastic member, such as a coil spring [5, which is adapted to be extended sufficiently to permit the bottle to be inserted within the channel between the uprights II, and which serves to maintain the bottle in said channel at any given position, the elastic member i5 being of sufficient tension for that purpose.
At each end of the body I0 there is provided an ear I6, preferably positioned near the base, each of the ears I6 is provided with an aperture I! for the attachment thereto of any suitable fastening device, such as a cord or ribbon, not shown, in the event that it should be desired to secure the device.
In Fig. 5 of the drawing, there is shown a modified form of structure in which the channel between the uprights H is suitably shaped for the reception of a hexagonal bottle I2 should such type of bottle be preferred.
By reason of the concave transverse curvature of the base portion of the body, the device will conform to the chest of the baby being fed, thereby minimizing the discomfort which might otherwise be caused, whereas the convex curvature in a direction parallel to the major axis of the bottle will permit the bottle to be tilted either up or down, whichever may be preferred under different conditions.
When it is desired to tilt the bottle it is only necessary to slide the same longitudinally through the channel between uprights H to bring it to a position where the bottle will assume the proper angular position. The tension of the spring I5 is suitable to hold the bottle in any position, yet the bottle may be readily and easily inserted, and also may be changed in position easily and conveniently for the purposes as hereinbefore set forth.
I claim:
1. A holder for a nursing bottle comprising a rigid body having spaced uprights providing a channel therebetween in which a nursing bottle is adapted to be positioned, and means for holding the bottle in any given longitudinal position within the channel, the under surface of the body being convex in a direction parallel to the channel for variable tilting of the bottle by shifting the position thereof along said channel, and
said under surface also being concave in the transverse direction. I
2. A holder for a nursing bottle comprising a rigid body having spaced uprights providing a channel therebetween in which a nursing bottle is adapted to be selectively positioned, an elastic member having its ends secured to the tops of said uprights and adapted to extend over the bottle to hold the same in any given longitudinal position within the channel, the under surface of the body being convex in a direction parallel to the channel for variable tilting of the bottle by shifting the position thereof along said channel, said under surface also being concave in the transverse direction, and ears carried by the body adapted for attaching securing means thereto.
