Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in such an artificial nipple, it is difficult to obtain the desired elongation performance during breastfeeding (drinking), and there are differences in the sucking strength of infants, etc., so that it may not reach the nursing nest in actual use.
[0006] In addition, the spherical tip of the nipple may not be sufficiently crushed by the pressing force of the infant's tongue during movement such as peristalsis.
Especially in the case of a spherical shape with a slightly enlarged diameter at the front end of the artificial nipple (refer to the Figure 7 It is easy to understand), because the front part of the nipple cannot be fully crushed, so during the breastfeeding movement, not only the front part cannot be guided to the nursing nest, but on the contrary, the front part of the nipple is detached from the nursing nest due to being pushed back. The problem that beverages such as milk cannot be squeezed out smoothly

Embodiment Construction

[0035] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described based on the drawings.

[0036] In addition, since the embodiments described below are preferred specific examples of the present invention, various technically preferable limitations are added thereto. The scope is not limited to these forms.

[0037] figure 1 It is a schematic front view showing the structure of the breastfeeding device according to the embodiment of the present invention.

[0038] In the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a bottle used as a nursing bottle or the like, which is an example of a beverage container.

[0039] An external thread (not shown) is formed on the outer periphery of the upper end of the bottle 1 and can be screwed into the internal thread on the inner surface of the cap 3 .

[0040] The lower end base of the artificial teat 20 is fitted into the cap 3 as will be described later, and the cap 3 is assembled by screwing the cap 3 to the...

Abstract

The disclosed artificial nipple, nursing container using same, and pacifier toy are made so that the nipple end section sufficiently reaches the nursing depression, can be adequately squeezed, and in that state, a nursing action can be reliably performed. The artificial nipple is hollow and roughly conical overall, and has: a base section that can expand to match an object attached to; an areola section that narrows gradually while extending; and a nipple section that does not widen partway before reaching the end, and that, while extending, narrows very gradually at a rate of narrowing that is less than the aforementioned rate of narrowing of the aforementioned areola section. The aforementioned areola section is made so as to be provided with a greater wall thickness than that of the aforementioned nipple section. The aforementioned nipple section is set to have a sufficient length for reaching the nursing depression, and is provided at the boundary between the aforementioned areola section and the aforementioned nipple section with a weak section, which is formed in a band around the perimeter of said location by means of a wall thickness that is thinner than that of the aforementioned areola section and that is thicker than the aforementioned nipple section.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an improvement of an artificial pacifier suitable for a breastfeeder, a breastfeeder and a pacifier toy having the improved artificial pacifier. Background technique [0002] Artificial teats mounted on bottles containing milk or pre-expressed breast milk have been widely used. [0003] In particular, an extension-type artificial nipple has been proposed (see Patent Document 1), which is characterized in that when breastfeeding from a breastfeeding device, the front end of the artificial nipple is extended in the mouth of the infant so that the front end reaches the nursing nest, wherein, A nursing fossa is a depression in the palate that is only seen in nursing infants and young children. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-6809 [0005] However, in such an artificial nipple, it is difficult to obtain the desired elongation performance during breastfeeding (drinking), and there are differen...
