Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model patent relates to the technical field of electric breast pumps, and in particular to a breast shield. Background Art
[0002] An electric breast pump is a device with a negative pressure mechanism that acts on the breast through a three-way suction pipe, promoting milk secretion and extracting milk. An electric breast pump generally consists of a main unit, a three-way pipe, a breast shield, and a feeding bottle. The breast shield is made of liquid silicone, which is relatively soft.
[0003] CN103394135A discloses a breast shield structure for a breast pump, comprising an inner breast shield assembly and an outer support frame. The inner breast shield assembly comprises a large port sealing inner ring, a breast shield body, and a cup interface. The breast shield body, the large port sealing inner ring, and the cup interface are seamlessly bonded together into a single piece using secondary injection molding. The large port sealing inner ring and the cup interface are made of PPSU, and the breast shield body is made of SIL liquid silicone. Existing technology involves disassembling the breast shield into multiple components and then using secondary injection molding or gluing techniques to bond the outer support frame and multiple components of the breast shield into a single piece.
[0004] After more than ten years of application, although the above-mentioned existing technologies have excellent performance, they also have the following shortcomings: the material structure is relatively complex, the process requirements are relatively high, and the cost is also relatively high.
[0005] CN214911351U discloses a breast shield support structure and a breast pump. The breast shield support structure includes a breast shield and a support frame for supporting the breast shield. The breast shield includes a suction section and a connecting section. The outer wall of the suction section is provided with a first hole slot, and the outer wall of the connecting section is provided with a second hole slot. The support frame includes multiple connecting rods, each end of which is detachably connected to the first hole slot and the second hole slot. The connecting rod 21 is made of hard plastic. Its disadvantage is that the connection point between the connecting rod 21 and the outer wall of the suction section or the hole slot of the connecting section is a detachable connection that can be easily disengaged with a little force. During daily use, especially when cleaning and disinfecting the breast shield, the breast shield may sometimes disintegrate. The structure is also unstable and not very practical.
[0006] Whether we can design a breast shield that has good stability, is not easy to disintegrate during use, has a simple manufacturing process and is low in cost is another technical problem facing us. Utility Model Content
[0007] In response to the shortcomings of existing breast shields, the present invention aims to provide a breast shield with a support. Compared with existing technologies, this breast shield has a better structure and stability, requires less complex manufacturing processes, and is less expensive. In addition, it is less likely to fall apart or become debonded during use.
[0008] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: a breast shield with a bracket, the breast shield is made of silicone and is trumpet-shaped, wherein the front trumpet mouth of the breast shield for accommodating the breast is larger, and the rear end of the breast shield is connected to a tee; there are a plurality of support brackets on the outside of the breast shield, the head of the support member is embedded in the front end of the breast shield and wrapped by the silicone of the breast shield; the tail of the support member is embedded in the rear end of the breast shield; further, the combination of the head and tail of the support member and the breast shield adopts a structure formed by a rubber coating process, and the head and tail of the support member are respectively embedded in the rubber coating area of the head and tail of the support member of the breast shield, forming an inseparable whole with the breast shield.
[0009] Furthermore, the encapsulation process refers to the encapsulation process of soft glue and hard glue.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the end of the breast shield is provided with one or more silicone sealing rings.
[0011] Furthermore, the support members are symmetrically distributed around the periphery of the breast shield.
[0012] Beneficial Effects: The present invention provides a breast shield with a support, which offers the following advantages over existing technologies: The support rod and the breast shield are securely connected using a rubber coating process. The rubber coating area at the junction is relatively large, allowing the head and tail of the support member to be embedded within the rubber coating area of the breast shield, forming an integral, non-detachable unit with the breast shield. Even with a little force, the breast shield is not easily disengaged. The breast shield is constructed of a single silicone material, and the support member is made of a relatively hard silicone material, providing a certain degree of elasticity. The breast shield manufactured using the present invention has been tested multiple times on breast pumps and has fully met the requirements for normal breast pump operation. Furthermore, in comparison tests with existing connecting rod structures, the support rod and breast shield joints remain intact. The large rubber coating area at the junction of the head and tail of the support member with the breast shield makes the breast shield with a very stable structure, making it difficult to disengage during cleaning and disinfection.
