SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention presents a means of providingapacificr having no detachable components which might, if separated, be swallowed by an infant or otherwise cause serious difficulties. The invention, moreover, provides a. means for simple, low-cost manufacture of pacifiers having an integral handle, nipple and shield. An objective of this invention, therefore, is to supply a pacifier of integral form having new and novelcomponents operating after initial formation of the device to provide manipulative components.
In accordance with the aforesaid aims and purposes of the invention, this construction is such that the pacifier may optionally have a handle of novel form which is readily gripped and held byan infant, or may have an enlarged shield and no handle. The latter has been found advantageous in the case of some infants who habitually assume certain rest positions wherein a pacifier is best supported with respect to them on a Other' and further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from a consideration of the following specification when read in conjunctionwith the annexed drawing.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a pacifier constructed and assembled in accordance with the teachings of this invention in a first operational condition of use;
FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. I, but showing the pacifier in a second possible position;
FIG. 3 is a frontal plan view on slightly enlarged scale with respect to FIGS. 1 and 2;
FIG. 4 is a medial cross section taken substantially on the line 4 4 of FIG. 3, looking in the direction of the arrows;
FIG. 5 is an elevational view indicating the manner of manipulation of the handle portions hereof in phantom lines;
FIG. 6 is a side elevational view with the components in the position of FIG. 2;
2 1 DESCRIPTION or THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In the drawings, reference numeral generally identifies the pacifier hereof per se in a representative first embodiment. The pacifier is to be formed of various semi-rigid plastics, or of suitable types of rubber, and as emphasized above, is cast or otherwise formed in integral, onepiece construction so that FIG. 7 is a top plane view of a modified form of the inven- 7 FIG. 10 is a bottom plan view showing the handle portion of the modification in a folded'position; and
FIG. 11 is a side view of the device as shown in FIG. 10.
thereare no separable components.
For purposes of description, the pacifier 10 has an initially. ,flat body-portion 12 which includes a central shield portion 14 having a front 16 and back 18',and having opposite, diametric hingesections 20 and 22. Thehinge sections are separatedby outer peripheral edges 24, 26 of the shield section, and each of thehinge sections hasa first'side edge 28 and a second side edge 30.
Projecting outwardly at the approximate center of the shield 14, from the side 16 thereof, isa nipple 32. The nipple is hollow, and opens at 34 on the side 18 of the shield;
A-first handle portion 36, having terminal ends 38, is joined, by reduced'sections 42, to the first side edges 28 of the hinge sections 20 and 22. The portion 36 has an inner marginal edge 44 which is outwardly spaced from the shield peripheral edge 24 in one position of the handle, in which position the section is co-planar with the main shield portion 12 and is separated therefrom by a space 45 as appears below in more detail. In like manner, a second generally semi-circular handle portion 46 is joined at its terminalends 47 to the opposite second side edges 30 of the hinge sections by reduced-portions 48. The second handle portion has an inner marginal edge 50 which is disposed outwardly of the peripheral edge 26 of the shield when aligned therewith to form a space 51 therebetween.
The first handle portion has an aperture 52 formed therein, and the second handle portion has a protruding nub 54, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. The nub 54 and aperture 52 provide interfitting connection means which serve to retain the handles in the position shown in FIG. 2 when this is desired.
In some circumstances of employment of the pacifier, it is desirable to use it in the condition shown in FIG. I. When this is the case, the handle portions frictionally engage the shield at the side extremities of the marginal edges and peripheral edges, respectively, thereof. when a handle for the device is needed, the handle portions 36 and 46 are folded rearwardly about the reduced portions 42 and 47, and connection is effected between the nub 54 and aperture 52, thereby retaining the handles in this location.
. Referring to FIGS. 7 through 10, inclusive, the form of paci fier therein disclosed is identified by reference numeral and includes abody section 102 having a central shield portion 104 with a front side I06 and back side 108. Side connecting portionsllO, 112 extend from the diametrically opposed sides of the shield. As in the case of the first described form of the invention, the pacifier 100 has a central nipple 114. The nipple is hollow and opens, at 116, on the bottomor back side 108 of the shield.
The handle means 118 of this form of the invention cornprises a continuous loop 120 of elliptical form and of integral construction, joined to the shield at its approximate minor axis by the integral connecting portions and 112. As shown to best advantage in FIGS. 8 and 9, the loop is of maximum depth at this area of connection and tapersto a lesser thickness as it approaches its major axis. The purpose of this thickening of the material at the minor axis with gradual tapering to the major axis is to enhance the tendency of the material to maintain a selected, curvilinear position, as described below.
The loop has inwardly projecting securing flaps I22, 124 on the ends coincident with the aforesaid major axis. The flap 122 has an aperture 126 formed therein, and the flap 124 carries a nub 128. As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the nub is engageable, releasably, in the aperture to connect the flaps together. This places the handle in the positions shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 wherein it is readily grasped by an infant or the like.
