Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of feeding devices, and particularly relates to a feeder with an anti-choking function. Background Technique
[0002] A feeder is a tool or device used to assist in providing food to humans or animals. In the scenarios of human use, feeders are usually used for those who are unable to eat independently or have difficulty eating, such as infants, the elderly, and patients. Its design aims to enable food to be delivered into their mouths in a safer, more convenient, and more controllable manner. There are many drawbacks to current feeders. Firstly, common feeders often lack a precise flow rate control mechanism, which may result in the food flowing out too fast or too slow. An overly fast flow rate is likely to cause a large amount of food to pour into the mouth, increasing the risk of choking; too slow may affect the feeding efficiency and cause inconvenience to the user. The reason for this drawback is that its design fails to fully consider the differences in swallowing abilities and feeding needs of different groups. The conventional approach is for the user to manually control the tilt angle or extrusion force of the feeder to adjust the flow rate, but this method has obvious disadvantages. It highly depends on the user's experience and operating skills and is difficult to achieve stable and precise flow rate control. Secondly, the food outlet of many feeders is poorly designed. It may be too large in size or the shape does not fit the oral cavity, resulting in food leakage or failure to accurately enter the oral cavity, which is neither hygienic nor conducive to the feeding effect. This is usually due to insufficient research on the human oral structure and feeding movements. The conventional solution is for the user to continuously adjust the feeding angle and position, but this not only increases the operation difficulty but also may cause fatigue and irritation to the user. Therefore, a new structure is needed to solve the above technical problems. Content of the Utility Model
[0003] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a feeder with an anti-choking function to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
[0004] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: A feeder with an anti-choking function, comprising: a food storage tank, a conical section, and a food outlet member. The upper side surface of the food storage tank is hermetically clamped with a tank cover. A partition is installed inside the food storage tank. A handle is installed on the outer side surface of the food storage tank. An observation window is installed on the outer side surface of the food storage tank. The lower end of the food storage tank is integrally formed with a conical section. The lower end of the conical section is integrally formed with a mounting plate one. A magnet one is installed on the surface of the mounting plate one. The lower end of the conical section is installed with a food outlet member through the mounting plate one. The food outlet member includes: a mounting plate two, a magnet two, a food outlet rubber, and a buffer plate. The outer side surface of the mounting plate two is installed with a food outlet rubber. A buffer plate is installed inside the food outlet rubber. A discharging member and a buffer net are installed inside the conical section. The discharging member includes: a discharging pipe and a flow control valve. A flow control valve is installed on the outer side surface of the discharging pipe.
[0005] As a preferred embodiment, a partition is installed at the central position inside the food storage tank. A buckle ring is installed on the upper side surface of the tank cover. Two accommodation cavities are formed inside the food storage tank through the partition. The positions of the two observation windows on the outer side surface of the food storage tank match the two accommodation cavities.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment, two discharging pipes are symmetrically installed on the lower side surface of the food storage tank. The discharging pipes are connected to the inside of the accommodation cavity. A flow control valve is installed at the central position on the outer side surface of the discharging pipe. Control buttons are symmetrically installed on the outer side surface of the conical section. The control buttons are electrically connected to the flow control valve. The shape of the conical section enables the food to naturally concentrate during the falling process. The presence of the buffer net effectively blocks and disperses the tendency of the food to accelerate. Under the buffering effect, the final outflow speed of the food is significantly slowed down, reducing the risk of choking caused by too fast food flow rate.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment, a buffer net is installed on the inner wall of the conical section. The lower end of the conical section is designed to be open. A mounting plate one is installed on the outer side surface at the lower end of the conical section. A magnet one is installed at the central position on the lower side surface of the mounting plate one.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the structure and specifications of the mounting plate one and the magnet one match the structure and specifications of the mounting plate two and the magnet two. The conical section lower end is magnetically attracted and installed with a food outlet rubber through the mounting plate one, the mounting plate two, the magnet one, and the magnet two. The material of the food outlet rubber is medical rubber.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, one end of the food outlet rubber away from the conical section is designed to be open. The cross-section of the food outlet rubber is in a square-shaped structure. A plurality of buffer plates are symmetrically installed on the inner left wall and the inner right wall of the food outlet rubber respectively. The buffer plates are designed to be inclined at 45 degrees with the inner side lower and the outer side higher. The presence of the buffer plates inside the food outlet rubber can further slow down the flow rate of the food. When the food flows out from the conical section and enters the food outlet part, the buffer plates will disperse the impact force of the food, making the food flow out more smoothly, thereby reducing the risk of choking.
[0010] After adopting the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: By setting the conical section, a can cover is hermetically clamped on the upper side surface of the food storage tank. A partition is installed inside the food storage tank. A handle is installed on the outer side surface of the food storage tank. An observation window is installed on the outer side surface of the food storage tank. A conical section is integrally formed at the lower end of the food storage tank. A discharging part and a buffer net are installed inside the conical section. The discharging part includes: a discharging pipe and a flow control valve. A flow control valve is installed on the outer side surface of the discharging pipe. When in use, the presence of the buffer plates inside the food outlet rubber can further slow down the flow rate of the food. When the food flows out from the conical section and enters the food outlet part, the buffer plates will disperse the impact force of the food, making the food flow out more smoothly, thereby reducing the risk of choking. Moreover, the food outlet part directly conveys the food into the user's mouth, reducing the splashing and leakage of the food during the conveying process, thereby reducing the risk of choking.
[0011] By setting the food outlet part, a mounting plate one is integrally formed at the lower end of the conical section. A magnet one is installed on the surface of the mounting plate one. The food outlet part is installed at the lower end of the conical section through the mounting plate one. The food outlet part includes: a mounting plate two, a magnet two, a food outlet rubber and a buffer plate. The food outlet rubber is installed on the outer side surface of the mounting plate two. The buffer plate is installed inside the food outlet rubber. When in use, the shape of the conical section makes the food naturally concentrate during the falling process, and the presence of the buffer net effectively blocks and disperses the tendency of the food to accelerate. Under the buffering effect, the final outflow speed of the food is significantly slowed down, reducing the risk of choking caused by too fast food flow rate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a feeder with an anti-choking function, including: a food storage tank 100, a conical section 140, and a food outlet part. The upper side surface of the food storage tank 100 is hermetically clamped with a tank lid 120. A partition 160 is installed inside the food storage tank 100. A handle 110 is installed on the outer side surface of the food storage tank 100. An observation window 130 is installed on the outer side surface of the food storage tank 100. The lower end of the food storage tank 100 is integrally formed with a conical section 140. The lower end of the conical section 140 is integrally formed with a first mounting plate 150. A first magnet 151 is installed on the surface of the first mounting plate 150. The lower end of the conical section 140 is installed with a food outlet part through the first mounting plate 150. The food outlet part includes: a second mounting plate 300, a second magnet 310, a food outlet rubber 320, and a buffer plate 330. A food outlet rubber 320 is installed on the outer side surface of the second mounting plate 300. A buffer plate 330 is installed inside the food outlet rubber 320. A discharge part and a buffer mesh 230 are installed inside the conical section 140. The discharge part includes: a discharge pipe 200 and a flow control valve 220. A flow control valve 220 is installed on the outer side surface of the discharge pipe 200.
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, as the first embodiment of the present utility model: A partition 160 is installed at the central position inside the food storage tank 100. A buckle 121 is installed on the upper side surface of the tank cover 120. Two accommodating cavities are formed inside the food storage tank 100 through the partition 160. The positions of the two observation windows 130 on the outer surface of the food storage tank 100 match the two accommodating cavities;
[0022] Two discharge pipes 200 are symmetrically installed on the lower side surface of the food storage tank 100. The discharge pipes 200 are connected to the inside of the accommodating cavity. A flow control valve 220 is installed at the central position on the outer surface of the discharge pipe 200. Control buttons 210 are symmetrically installed on the outer surface of the conical section 140. The control buttons 210 are electrically connected to the flow control valve 220. A power supply component is installed on the outer surface of the food storage tank 100;
[0023] A buffer net 230 is installed on the inner wall of the conical section 140. The lower end of the conical section 140 is designed to be open. A mounting plate one 150 is installed on the outer surface at the lower end of the conical section 140. A magnet one 151 is installed at the central position on the lower side surface of the mounting plate one 150;
[0024] When in use, the user first opens the tank cover 120, and then stores the food (liquid food) to be fed in the accommodating cavity of the food storage tank 100 respectively. After the storage is completed, the user then installs the tank cover 120. At this time, the user holds the handle 110 with the hand, and then installs the food outlet part at the lower end of the conical section 140. After the installation is completed, the user can place the food outlet part inside the user's mouth, and then the user can press the control button 210 to control the flow control valve 220 to open, so that the liquid food in the accommodating cavity is discharged into the conical section 140 through the discharge pipe 200. When the food enters the conical section 140, it will be blocked by the buffer net 230 at this time, so as to buffer the discharged food, and then the food enters the food outlet part and is discharged. Due to the shape of the conical section 140, the food naturally concentrates during the falling process, and the presence of the buffer net 230 effectively blocks and disperses the tendency of the food to accelerate. Under the buffering effect, the final outflow speed of the food is significantly slowed down, reducing the risk of choking caused by too fast food flow rate.
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , as the second embodiment of the present utility model: The structure and specifications of the mounting plate one 150 and the magnet one 151 match the structure and specifications of the mounting plate two 300 and the magnet two 310. The lower end of the conical section 140 is magnetically installed with a food outlet rubber 320 through the mounting plate one 150, the mounting plate two 300, the magnet one 151 and the magnet two 310. The material of the food outlet rubber 320 is medical rubber;
[0026] The section of the food outlet rubber 320 away from the conical section 140 is of an open design. The cross-section of the food outlet rubber 320 is in a square-shaped structure with a hollow center. On the inner left and right walls of the food outlet rubber 320, a plurality of buffer plates 330 are symmetrically installed. The buffer plates 330 are designed with an inclination of 45 degrees, being lower on the inner side and higher on the outer side.
[0027] When in use, when installing the food outlet component, first align the magnet two 310 of the mounting plate two 300 of the food outlet component with the magnet one 151 of the mounting plate one 150 at the lower end of the conical section 140 for magnetic attraction and sealing connection. After the magnetic attraction and sealing connection, when the food is discharged into the interior of the food outlet rubber 320 through the conical section 140, the food will be further blocked and buffered by the buffer plates 330 inside the food outlet rubber 320. Due to the presence of the buffer plates 330 inside the food outlet rubber 320, the flow rate of the food can be further slowed down. When the food flows out of the conical section 140 and enters the food outlet component, the buffer plates 330 will disperse the impact force of the food, enabling the food to flow out more smoothly, thereby reducing the risk of choking. Moreover, the food outlet component directly delivers the food into the user's mouth, reducing the splashing and leakage of the food during the delivery process, thus reducing the risk of choking.
[0028] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
