Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of infant care products, in particular to a feeding device. Background Art

[0002] Cleft lip and palate is a common congenital deformity, and infants with cleft lip and palate usually require surgery to repair the cleft lip. Post-operatively, infants need to eat. For example, when feeding a post-operative infant, the feeding cup can easily touch the wound and cause irritation. Inadvertent milk flow into the wound can also cause infection. Therefore, the feeding method directly affects the effectiveness of post-operative recovery. It is particularly important to ensure that the child is adequately nourished and spends the post-operative recovery period comfortably and safely.

[0003] In the past, parents often used pacifiers to feed babies with cleft lip and palate to avoid contact with the wound. However, babies with cleft lip and palate are often unable to suck on the pacifier independently, requiring parents to squeeze the bottle to force milk out of the nipple. This makes it difficult for parents to control the flow of milk, which can easily cause the baby to choke. Therefore, how to avoid irritating the baby's wound during feeding and control the flow of milk has become a new research topic. Utility Model Content

[0020] In order to provide a further understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and functions of the present invention, the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0021] Certain terms are used throughout the specification and claims to refer to specific components. Those skilled in the art will understand that manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. This specification and claims do not distinguish components by name, but rather by their functional differences. Throughout the specification and claims, the term "including" is open-ended and should be interpreted as meaning "including, but not limited to."

[0022] It should be noted that the words "up, down, left, right" and other directional expressions mentioned in the present invention and the relative positions of the feeding device in the accompanying drawings are mainly used to describe the structure of the feeding device for easy understanding, and do not represent the specific directions protected by the present invention.

[0023] See also Figure 1 , is a structural diagram of a feeding device in an embodiment of the present invention. The feeding device 1 provided by the present invention comprises a first feeding bottle 10, a second feeding bottle 20, a connecting piece 30 and a nipple 40. In the present embodiment, all components of the feeding device 1 are made of food-grade silicone material (hereinafter referred to as silicone material), which ensures the non-toxicity of the milk carried by the feeding device 1 and provides protection for the baby's feeding safety, but the actual application is not limited to this. The first feeding bottle 10 is an elastic silicone feeding bottle 10, and the connecting piece 30 is arranged between the first feeding bottle 10 and the second feeding bottle 20. In the present embodiment, the upper end size of the first feeding bottle 10 is relatively shrunk to connect with the connecting piece 30, but the actual application is not limited to this. An anti-backflow cross-port 31 is also provided in the connecting piece 30. In the present embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the backflow prevention cross-shaped opening 31 comprises a first portion made of a hard silicone material and a second portion made of an elastic silicone material. The cross-shaped opening is located in the second portion, which is embedded in the middle of the first portion. The outer periphery of the first portion is fixed to the side wall of the connector 30. In other embodiments, the backflow prevention cross-shaped opening 31 may comprise only one portion made of an elastic silicone material, with the cross-shaped opening defined in the middle of the portion and its outer arc portion fixed to the side wall of the connector 30. However, practical applications are not limited to this. The lower end of the nipple 40 is connected to the upper end of the second feeding bottle 20. In this embodiment, the upper end of the second feeding bottle 20 is relatively constricted to facilitate connection with the nipple 40. However, practical applications are not limited to this. The upper end of the nipple 40 is closed, and at least two openings 41 are defined in the side wall of the nipple 40.

[0024] It should be noted that, when the feeding device 1 is actually used, the first feeding bottle 10 is usually located above the second feeding bottle 20, and the nipple 40 is located below the second feeding bottle 20, which means that the first feeding bottle 10 is usually located above the second feeding bottle 20, and the nipple 40 is located below the second feeding bottle 20. Figure 1The feeding device 1 in the present invention is used in an inverted position. The present invention describes the feeding device 1 in the orientation shown in the accompanying drawings. The following structural description of the feeding device refers to the accompanying drawings and will not be repeated. Based on the above, when the feeding device 1 is inverted, the parent can squeeze the elastic silicone bottle 10 to increase the air pressure in the first bottle 10, causing the milk therein to push open the anti-backflow cross-shaped opening 31 and flow into the second bottle 20. The second bottle 20 acts as a buffer for the milk flow rate. Under the influence of gravity, the milk in the second bottle 20 further flows into the nipple opening 40. Because the upper end of the nipple opening 40 is closed, when the nipple opening 40 is inverted, the milk does not flow directly into the baby's mouth. Instead, it slowly drips into the baby's mouth through the at least two openings 41 in the sidewalls of the nipple opening 40. This prevents the nipple opening 40 or milk from contacting the baby's wounds, making the feeding more comfortable and safe for the baby. When the milk drips into the baby's mouth too quickly, the nipple 40 can be placed against the baby's lower lip to block part of the opening 41, thereby slowing down the milk dripping into the baby's mouth. In some preferred embodiments, the nipple 40 is made of hard silicone, so that when the nipple 40 is placed against the baby's lower lip, the nipple 40 will not be deformed, and the opening 41 in that part can be blocked better. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the nipple mouth 40 is cylindrical and has four openings 41. The spacing between every two adjacent openings 41 is equal. At this time, when the milk drips into the baby's mouth too quickly, the nipple mouth 40 can be pressed against the lower lip to block three of the openings 41. In other embodiments, the number of openings 41 can also be three or more than four, and the nipple mouth 40 can also be prismatic. However, practical applications are not limited to this.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the volume of the first feeding bottle 10 is larger than that of the second feeding bottle 20. The volume of the second feeding bottle 20 is between 3 and 10 ml, for example, 5 ml. Preferably, the length of the nipple 40 is between 0.8 and 1.2 cm, for example, 1 cm; and the nipple 40 is cylindrical with a diameter between 0.2 and 0.4 cm, for example, 0.3 cm. The volume of the second feeding bottle 20 and the size of the nipple 40 reduce the volume of the entire storage space formed by the second feeding bottle 20 and the nipple 40. This means that the amount of milk in the storage space is not excessive, which helps control the rate at which milk drips from the nipple 40. Furthermore, the size of the nipple 40 is more convenient for infants to feed.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the feeding device 1 has a plurality of first milk bottles 10, each of which has a different volume. For example, the volumes of the plurality of first milk bottles 10 include at least two of 60ml, 100ml, 150ml, and 200ml. Alternatively, the first milk bottles 10 may also have other specific volume specifications, but the actual application is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the connecting piece 30 is threadedly connected to the first feeding bottle 10 and the second feeding bottle 20 respectively, and is used for cleaning the first feeding bottle 10 and the second feeding bottle 20, or the first feeding bottle 10 can be disassembled and milk can be injected therein; in other embodiments, the first feeding bottle 10 and the second feeding bottle 20 can be threadedly connected, and the connecting piece 30 is fixed in the first feeding bottle 10 or the second feeding bottle 20. For example, the connecting piece 30 can be installed in the first feeding bottle 10 or the second feeding bottle 20 by embedding, threading, etc.; however, the actual application is not limited thereto. In the above embodiment, the first feeding bottle 10 of appropriate volume specification can also be replaced according to the body shape and number of months of the baby. Preferably, the first feeding bottle 10 has a transparent side wall, and the transparent side wall is provided with a first scale 10s, wherein, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the first scale 10s is inverted text, that is, when the inverted feeding device 1 is used, the text direction of the first scale 10s is positive; and / or, the second feeding bottle 20 has a transparent side wall, and the transparent side wall is provided with a second scale 20s, wherein, as shown Figure 1 As shown, the second scale 20s is inverted text, that is, when the feeding device 1 is used upside down, the text direction of the second scale 20s is positive. This makes it easier for parents to observe the remaining milk in the first feeding bottle 10 and the second feeding bottle 20 respectively, so as to feed the baby more safely.

[0027] In summary, the feeding device provided by the present invention comprises a first feeding bottle, a second feeding bottle, a connecting piece, and a nipple. The first feeding bottle is an elastic silicone feeding bottle, and the connecting piece is arranged between the first feeding bottle and the second feeding bottle. The connecting piece is also provided with a cross-shaped opening to prevent backflow. The lower end of the nipple is connected to the upper end of the second feeding bottle, the upper end of the nipple is closed, and at least two openings are provided on the side wall of the nipple. The feeding device is used upside down. By pressing the first feeding bottle, the milk in the first feeding bottle can flow to the second feeding bottle, and then drip into the baby's mouth through the openings on the side wall of the nipple. If the milk flows out too quickly, a part of the openings can be placed against the baby's lower lip to slow down the speed at which the milk drips into the baby's mouth.
