Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pacifiers, in particular to a pacifier for newborns. Background Art

[0002] There are many reasons why babies like to suck during the oral stage (usually referring to 0 - 12 months, and some also think it lasts until about 2 years old), which are caused by both physiological and psychological needs. Sucking is an innate instinct of babies. Through sucking, babies can meet basic physiological needs, such as obtaining nutrition (such as sucking breast milk or a bottle) and a sense of security. During teething, when teeth break through the gums, it will cause discomfort, leading babies to relieve this discomfort by sucking. As babies grow, the oral mucosa gradually thickens, and the sensitivity to stimulation increases. Sucking may become a way of self - comfort. Babies explore and understand the surrounding environment through their mouths during the oral stage, and sucking is an important way among them. They satisfy their curiosity and exploration desire for things by sucking fingers, toys and other items. In a strange environment or when feeling uneasy, babies may seek comfort by sucking, and this behavior can bring them a sense of familiarity and security.

[0003] In order to meet the sucking instinct of children and reduce the harm to lactating women, pacifiers have been recognized by the market. However, in order to adapt to the damage caused by long - term sucking of the pacifier by babies, it needs to be replaced. However, when the existing detachable and replaceable pacifier is installed, it is easy to contact the sucking part of the baby, thus creating a safety hazard; secondly, the existing detachable and replaceable pacifier is prone to accidentally touch the limiting mechanism when the baby is sucking and playing, resulting in the loosening or even falling off of the pacifier, affecting normal use.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 - 3 and Figure 5 , the neonatal pacifier of this embodiment includes:

[0035] A connecting frame 1, with a pacifier nipple 4 clamped on one side of the connecting frame 1;

[0036] It further includes:

[0037] A fixing mechanism, which is installed on the side wall of the connecting frame 1;

[0038] A limiting mechanism, which is arranged inside the connecting frame 1 and includes an adjusting limiting block 11. A spring chamber 12 is opened on one side of the adjusting limiting block 11. An inserting block 14 is horizontally slidably connected inside the spring chamber 12. One side of the inserting block 14 is arranged in a slope shape, and the inserting block 14 can insert and limit the pacifier nipple 4;

[0039] An adjusting mechanism, which is arranged on the other side of the adjusting limiting block 11.

[0040] The fixing mechanism includes binding sleeve blocks 2 symmetrically installed on both sides of the connecting frame 1. Two groups of binding sleeve blocks 2 are fixedly connected with binding straps 3. Matching magic tapes are arranged at the other port ends of the two groups of binding straps 3.

[0041] The binding strap 3 is made of elastic telescopic material.

[0042] The limiting mechanism further includes a rotating groove 9 opened on one outer wall of the connecting frame 1 and a sliding opening 8 on the other outer wall. The sliding opening 8 and the rotating groove 9 are matched. The adjusting limiting block 11 can be rotatably connected inside the rotating groove 9. The inserting block 14 slides at the sliding opening 8. A support plate 10 is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting frame 1, and the support plate 10 is rotatably connected with the adjusting limiting block 11.

[0043] Horizontal grooves 13 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the outer wall of the spring chamber 12, and the horizontal grooves 13 can be horizontally slidably connected with the inserting block 14. A spring 15 is elastically connected between the inserting block 14 and the middle of the inner wall of the adjusting limiting block 11.

[0044] An inserting opening 5 is opened on one side of the pacifier nipple 4. The inserting opening 5 is inserted and connected with the inserting block 14. A vertical notch 6 is opened at the bottom end of the pacifier nipple 4. The vertical notch 6 can be inserted into the outer wall of one side of the connecting frame 1. A taking notch 7 is opened on one side of the top end of the pacifier nipple 4 for convenient taking.

[0045] The implementation principle of the neonatal pacifier in the embodiment of this application is:

[0046] First, hold the connecting frame 1 with one hand and ensure that the limiting mechanism is in the installed state. Then, with the other hand, pick up the nipple 4 at the picking slot 7 and press down on the corresponding installation area of the nipple 4, so that when the vertical slot 6 is pressed down, it can push the insertion block 14 to slide to the other side under the sliding of the spring chamber 12. When the nipple 4 slides down to the limit state, the vertical slot 6 can be inserted into the connecting frame 1. At the same time, after the insertion block 14 releases the sliding contact with the vertical slot 6, it will return to its original position under the elastic push of the spring 15 and be inserted into the socket 5, so that the socket 5 can be kept stable under the blockage of the other side of the insertion block 14. Then use the strap 3 to fix it on the baby's head.

[0050] The implementation principle of this embodiment is:

[0051] Use the fingernail to hold the adjusting convex block 16 and use the arrow mark for identification, and rotate it to another slot, so that the internal adjusting limiting block 11 will drive the insertion block 14 slidably connected to the adjusting limiting block 11 to rotate synchronously under the rotation of the rotating slot 9, so as to change the direction of the slope of the insertion block 14. At this time, hold the picking slot 7 perpendicular to the connecting frame 1 and apply force to pick up the nipple 4 from the connecting frame 1. Due to the change in the direction of the insertion block 14, the insertion block 14 can be released from the insertion connection with the socket 5 by the sliding of the nipple 4 and the insertion block 14. After the disassembly and assembly are completed, the adjusting limiting block 11 is adjusted back to its original position again and waits for reinstallation.

[0052] The above implementation manners are only the preferred implementation manners of the present invention, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the present invention belong to the protection scope required by the present invention.
