Definitions
- the present invention relates to liquid containers for human consumption or animal- the type used for feeding infants, commonly known as bottles, and specifically, with devices to prevent contamination by external agents' means dispensing the liquid, denominated mamilas, and more specifically, with means that avoid the loss of said devices and allow to improve the conditions of hygiene in the transport and dispensing of the liquid to the infant.
- a problem that occurs frequently during the use of containers with removable lids is that the lid can be easily lost when it is removed from its use position on the container in order to access the contents.
- US Patent No. 3,363,924 presents a typical garbage container, in which the lid is held by two diametrically located elastic elements that run from the vertical posts of the lid handle to the handles located diametrically opposite on the body of the container; to aid coupling, the elastic elements are attached to the handle of the lid and fasten to the handles of the container by means of hooks.
- US Patent No. 6,041,960 (Leal, 2000) is an alternative modality that takes advantage of the configuration of the container with handles near the mouth of the container and the concavity of the lid to use as a fastener to a semi-flexible strip that is held firmly to the middle, highest point of the lid; it bends down and the ends of the strip are attached to the handles on the body of the container; in this way the strip itself exerts a downward pressure on the lid, to keep it closed.
- To release the lid only one of the ends of the strip is released, which is removed by sliding upwards and then hanging from the other handle.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,361,918 (Mason, .1994) describes a cap that is attached to the bottle cap with a bottle and that also has the function of keeping in the bottle. inside your body, a certain amount of a material such as powder from a food formulation;
- the device is attached to the bottle cap with a bottle, and can be separated from it to allow access to the bottle as well as the contents of the bottle and the device itself.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,653,353 (Otto et al, 1997) describes a bottle cap, which is held by of a removable strap to the lid that holds the bottle to the bottle; As can be seen, this simple device solves the problem of keeping the cap attached to the body of the bottle, in order to avoid the loss of the bottle, however the problem of contamination of the inside of the cap and therefore of the bottle is still maintained when the cap is repositioned on it.
- US Patent No. 6,302,286 (Witherspoon, 2001) describes a bottle in which the cap of the bottle is kept close to the bottle when it is not being used to cover the bottle, by means of an arm that is held in one end to the cap and at the other end to a ring that is arranged around the neck of the bottle body and is held there by the coupling of the cap with the bottle, which is screwed into the upper part of the bottle body.
- the ring can rotate freely and can also move along the neck of the bottle;
- the arm is flexible enough so that the cap can be adjusted over the lid with the bottle to protect it from contaminants, as well as to allow the bottle to be released for use by the infant.
- the cap when it is not in its position of use protecting the bottle, rotates freely around the body of the bottle leaving exposed its indoor surface outdoors, with the consequent risk of contamination.
- said device has elements that allow it to be fixed easily and quickly by a user in charge of feeding the infant.

- “mamila” means the blister of elastic material, usually latex or soft plastic through which the liquid flows from the container to the outside by the sucking action of the infant; by “cover” refers to the normally internally threaded ring that holds the “mamila” and retains it against the mouth of the container; “Bottle” means the container assembly, “lid” and “mamila” described above; finally, references to the term “stopper” should be understood to be made towards a truncated cone-shaped device and whose base is a low-rise cylinder, which serves to cover and protect the lid-mamila pair, and which is normally subjected to this pair by pressure along of the annular zone of the cover which corresponds to the respective lower cylindrical (annular) zone of the cap, to which it fits; Conventionally, the contact surfaces of the cap and the cap have roughness or textures that improve the fit between them and prevent, although not totally, the inadvertent detachment of
- the device of the invention involves its use on a conventional bottle such as that shown in Figure 1 with the numeral (100), which is basically constituted by a cylindrical body closed at its lower end (110) and open at the upper, where a threaded mouth (120) is formed for the application of a cover assembly (130) and mamila
- the device of the invention (200) generally constituted by a base, fits on this threaded mouth (120)
- the hemispheres (220) are closed together by the joining means (260) and cover the lid assembly (130) and mamila (140) to avoid contamination of the latter, as can be seen in the same Figure 1 and in the sectional section of Figure 7.
- the joining means (260) are separated allowing the hemispheres (220) to separate along their line of union; by actuating the fastening means fixed to the cap (230), said hemispheres or half-plugs (220) can move longitudinally along the fastening means (240) fixed to the base (210) of the device, moving away from the mammoth (140 ) and can even rotate about themselves around the turning elements (280), as shown in Figures 2 and 9, to assume the second position of use illustrated in Figure 3.
- the half-plugs (220) are held and held in said position to avoid the loss of the half-plugs (220) when adjusting to an alternate support (250) which includes means (270) in which the joining means (260) can be adjusted;
- the alternate support (250) shows a profile such that it fits perfectly to the straight edges of the half-plugs (220) so as to ensure that the inner surface of the half-plugs (220) is not in contact with the environment, avoiding its contamination while the mamila is used by the infant.
- the base (210) including the clamping means (240), the alternate support (250), as well as the half-plugs (220) and their clamping means (230) and rotation (280), is adjustable on a conventional cover (130), however, in a second preferred embodiment, the assembly described above can be incorporated into a modified cover (300) schematically illustrated in Figures 4 to 6.
- the cover modified in accordance with this modality reminds of a conventional cover (130) with a base (210) that surrounds it and adjusts to its contour, and which has two diametrically opposite areas that extend with the precise size and shape to fit the base of the half-plugs (220), which in the case illustrated is circular, as seen in the top plan view of Figure 4.
- the fastening means (240) are fixed, which are hollow bodies with a longitudinal groove for the passage of the rotation means (280) of the half-stop assembly (220) and means of fastening (230) thereof.
- the element (240) is in the form of a truncated pyramid with a rectangular base, but it is evident that other configurations can be used with the same result.
- the modified cover (300) is complemented by a surface that acts as an alternate support (250) for the half-stop (220).
- This surface has the appropriate shape and size to fit the contour of the half-stop (220) when it is brought to the second position of use of the device (200) of the invention.
- Figure 5 shows retention means (270) that can be any of those commonly used in the field of bottles, and that for illustrative purposes are presented as of the type of assembled button, without this being limiting for The proposed invention.

- the half-stop assembly (220) and rotation means (280) can rotate about a ⁇ axis.
- This arrangement of the fastening means (230) and (240) and of rotation (280) allows the half-plug (220) to be released enough to move and rotate on the end of the base (210) to the second position of use, as illustrated in Figure 10, where the half-stop (220) fits the base (210), the alternate support (250) and is secured in that position by actuating the joining means (260) on the means (270).
- Figures 11 to 14 illustrate some criteria that should be considered for the design of the fastening means of each half-stop (220), illustrating these in a simple design for the element (230).
- this element is to house one end of the rotating means (280) that keep the half-stop (220) in proximity to the base (210) and / or the modified cover (300) of the preferred embodiment of the invention, as well as allowing both the movement of said half-stop (220) to the edge of the base (210) and the change of direction of the half-stop (220) to achieve its adjustment in the second position of use ( Figures 3 and 10 ).
- a hollow element is presented with two clearly visible sections illustrated in the Figures
- the first illustrated as a rectangular prism
- the groove passes "from side to side” to a level equal to that occupied by the edge of the half-stop (220), allowing a wide variety of movements of the half-stop (220) with respect to the body of the clamping means (240) .
- the shape of the element (230) is associated with the shape of the "gap" between the wall of the cover (130) modified or not and the proximal edge of the fastening means (240), provided that the possibility of rotation and displacement of the half-stop assembly (220) and clamping means (230) with respect to the clamping means (240) and the base (210) of the device, as well as ensuring that the rotating means (280) can move freely through the grooves without leaving any of the fastening means (230) or (240).

Abstract
La présente invention concerne des améliorations apportées à un capuchon du type utilisé pour prévenir la contamination, par des agents extérieurs, d'une tétine d'un biberon classique. L'invention consiste en un dispositif pouvant être adapté à un biberon et permettant de prévenir la perte du capuchon et d'améliorer les conditions d'hygiène pendant le transport et la distribution du liquide au nourrisson. Ce dispositif comprend une base pouvant être ajustée sur la bague du biberon et supportant un capuchon divisé en deux parties symétriques, ou demi-capuchons, qui servent à couvrir la tétine. Ces demi-capuchons sont séparables et peuvent pivoter de façon que la tétine soit à découvert. Lesdits demi-capuchons sont maintenus au voisinage de la base ajustable à l'aide de moyens de fixation et de moyens de rotation permettant de mettre les demi-capuchons dans une seconde position d'utilisation du biberon, la tétine étant alors à découvert et les demi-capuchons étant fixés dans des zones correspondantes situées sous la base ajustable. On les fait ensuite pivoter en retour jusqu'à leur position initiale en vue d'une protection de la tétine contre la contamination. Dans un mode de réalisation, la base ajustable et la bague du biberon forment une seule pièce.
