Application October 13, 1945, Serial No. 622,193
2 Claims. (01. 248-l) This invention relates to supports, and in parby a spring clip on a ball and socket joint connection with a base.
Another object is to provide a nursing bottle holder as set forth in the preceding object wherein the base has a relatively broad bottom portion with upwardly tapering side walls so as to prevent accidental tipping over.
Another object is to provide a nursing bottle holder as set forth in the preceding objects, wherein the base is additionally provided with a relatively heavy bottom portion to lower the center of gravity and still further prevent accidental tipping over.
Another object is to provide a nursing bottle holder as set forth in the preceding objects wherein the ball socket is in a tapering member having slots therein so that the grippin action upon the ball may be adjusted by turning a threaded member connected thereto.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent during the course of the following description of the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Figure l is a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the nursing bottle according to this invention, with the bottle broken away to disclose the construction more clearly;
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the nursing bottle holder shown in Figure l; and
Figure 3 is a vertical section partly in side elevation taken along the line 3-3 in Figure 2.
Referring to the drawings in detail, Figures 1 and 2 show the nursing bottle holder of this invention as consisting of a base Ill, preferably of plastic, wood or metal, and having upwardly tapering sides terminating at a relatively small top H! having a conically tapered bore l3 therein. The side walls H are preferably hollow soas to provide an internal cavity M. The cavity I4 is closed by a bottom plate l5 of relatively heavy material such as steel or iron, and seated in a recess it having a shoulder l'i against which the bottom plate l5 seats. The bottom plate I5 is provided with a hole l8 through which a screw l9 passes. The upper end of the screw I9 is threaded into a bore Zil in a conically tapered plu 2| similar in configuration to and mating with the conically-tapered bore Hi. The plug 2| is provided with a spherically curved socket 22 adapted to receive a ball 23 having a connection, as by a stem or rivet 24 or the like, to an approximately ll-shaped spring clip 25., The stem 24 is enlarged as at 25 .and preferably, also as at 21 to hold the spring clip 25 firmly. I
The top of the plug 2| is spun or turned over as at 29 so as to retain the ball 23 within the socket 22. A slot 30 is optionally formed in the top 28 of the plug 2| to provide an adjustment of the gripping power of the plug 2| upon the ball 23. This gripping action can be lessened or increased by turning the screw I9 in the threaded bore 20 so as to move the tapered plu 2| inwardly and outwardly in the tapered bore l3.
The spring clip 25 is provided at its upper ends with turned over portions 3| so as to prevent injury to the infant as well as strengthen these portions. The spring clip 25 is also provided with elongated apertures 32 in the side walls thereof, these apertures by their relative size controlling the spring action of the spring clip 25 for a given spring material. With relatively small apertures 32, the spring clip 25 has a stiffer spring action than with larger apertures.
Optionally, the base |0 may be made of heavy material and from its approximately pyramidal or conical shape, its weight will be concentrated near the bottom and the center of gravity will be low. Accordingly, this optional construction will also tend to prevent accidental tipping over of the device.
In the operation of the invention, the nursing bottle 33 (Figure 1) is pressed downwardly into the spring clip 25, the end portions 3| springing apart to admit the bottle and by their resilience, closing upon it. In this manner, the bottle is held firmly yet .releasably within the clip. At the same time, however, it can be instantly removed with a firm pull which, however, requires more strength than is possessed by an infant.
The device is then placed within convenient reach of the infants head and the bottle lifted until the nipple 34 can be reached by the infants mouth. The relatively broad base Ill, especially in connection with the heavy bottom portion l5, substantially prevents the infant from tipping the device over. At the same time, moreover, the device is free from projecting thumbscrews, sharp corners, or any parts which might injure the infant.
If the infant is not hungry at the moment and permits the bottle and its contents to cool, the bottle may be instantly removed by a quick tug with one hand, the other hand being placed on the base In. The bottle can then be reheated and quickly snapped back into the spring clip 25 with:
upwardly extending portion with a tapered bore.
in the upper part thereof, a tapered plug disposed in and mating with said bore andlsl'Wifigtel a; tively movable gripping portions with a socket therein, a pivot member withac'mved-portion secured in said socket, a bottle carrier connected to said pivot member, said plug having a slot therein adjacent said socketiwhereby to provide a resilient gripping action upon said pivot memher, and a pulling device on said base connected to said tapered plug and urging said plug downwardly into'said taperedborwherebyto an Bier said plug to said base and' adjust the ripping action of said socket.
2. In a-nursing'bottle holder, a basehavi'ng abottom portion and-an-upwardly extendingper"- t'ion with a tapered bore in the upper part tl iere- 4 of, a tapered slotted plug disposed in and mating with said bore and having relatively movable gripping portions with a socket and a threaded hole therein, a pivot member with a curved portion secured in said socket, a bottle carrier connected to said pivot member, and a threaded member secured to said bottom portion of said base-and threaded into said threaded hole in and plug whereby to anchor said plug to said base and adjust the gripping action of said socket.
