Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of maternal and infant products, in particular to a breast milk-like wide-caliber eccentric pacifier. Background Art

[0002] Pacifiers can be categorized into simulated and standard shapes. Simulated nipples are softer and have a fuller overall shape, closely resembling breast milk, hence the name. Pacifiers are typically used with feeding bottles, which are containers for milk, typically for infants. Bottles are categorized by their diameter, including standard-mouth (38mm), wide-mouth (51mm), and the recently introduced wide-mouth (72mm). Wide-mouth bottles are used with wide-mouth nipples, and their large opening facilitates the pouring of formula. The large opening simulates the mother's breast, facilitating the transition from breastfeeding to formula, and addressing weaning challenges.

[0003] When a child uses a wide-bore nipple for sucking, the transition part between the nipple head and the nipple body is easily squeezed by the child's mouth. At this time, the inner wall of the nipple tends to fit tightly, thereby interrupting the flow of milk, resulting in the milk being unable to pass through the nipple into the child's mouth, and thus failing to complete the sucking process smoothly. Moreover, when the fitting part separates, a large amount of milk flows out at once, which can easily cause the child to choke, seriously endangering the child's safety. Therefore, it is necessary to design a breast milk-like wide-bore, off-center nipple. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and proposes a breast milk imitating wide-caliber eccentric nipple.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a breast milk imitation wide-caliber eccentric nipple, including a nipple body, the nipple body including a nipple head, a transition section and a nipple body, the transition section is fixedly installed on the upper end of the nipple body, the nipple head is fixedly installed on the upper end of the transition section, and the nipple head, the transition section and the nipple body are an integrated structure, the upper end surface of the nipple head is provided with a milk outlet hole, the inner wall of the transition section is fixedly connected with a plurality of silicone convex strips, the upper end surface of the silicone convex strip is provided with a cavity, the inner wall of the cavity is fixedly connected with a plurality of first convex balls, and the two side walls of the silicone convex strip away from the cavity are fixedly connected with a plurality of second convex balls.

[0006] Furthermore, a plurality of convex points are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the nipple body, and the plurality of convex points are evenly distributed around the transition section.

[0007] Furthermore, the nipple body is made of silicone material.

[0008] Furthermore, the nipple body has a first center line extending in the up-down direction, the nipple head has a second center line, and the nipple head extends along the second center line. The first center line intersects with the tail end of the second center line, and the angle between the two is an acute angle.

[0009] Furthermore, the interior of the nipple body is a hollow structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the height of the silicone convex strip is greater than the height of the transition section, the silicone convex strip extends upward into the nipple head, and the silicone convex strip is located at the lower end of the milk outlet hole.

[0011] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] Compared with the prior art, this breast milk-simulating wide-mouth offset nipple can avoid the inner walls of the transition section from adhering to each other through the mutual cooperation of the silicone convex strips, the cavity, the first convex ball and the second convex ball. Even if the transition section is squeezed, due to the cavity between the silicone convex strips and the obstruction of the first convex ball and the second convex ball, it is difficult for the inner walls of the transition section to completely fit together. Milk can still pass through the cavity, the gap between the first convex ball and the silicone convex strip, the gap between the second convex ball and the second convex ball, or the gap between the second convex ball and the first convex ball, so that the child can suck milk smoothly, thereby reducing the probability of danger caused by a large amount of milk flowing out of the nipple after the inner wall adheres and separates, making the nipple body safer to use.

[0019] Reference Figure 1-4 The present invention provides a breast-feeding wide-caliber, off-center pacifier, comprising a pacifier body 1, comprising a nipple head 2, a transition section 4, and a nipple body 3. The transition section 4 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the nipple body 3, and the nipple head 2 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the transition section 4. The nipple head 2, transition section 4, and nipple body 3 form an integral structure. A milk outlet 5 is defined on the upper end surface of the nipple head 2. A plurality of silicone ridges 12 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the transition section 4. A cavity 7 is defined on the upper end surface of the silicone ridges 12. A plurality of first ridges 8 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 7. A plurality of second ridges 9 are fixedly connected to the two side walls of the silicone ridges 12 away from the cavity 7. During operation, the present invention prevents the inner walls of the transition section 4 from adhering to each other, thereby improving the safety of the pacifier body 1 and allowing infants to smoothly and safely suck milk.

[0020] Furthermore, a plurality of protrusions 6 are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the nipple body 3, and the protrusions 6 are evenly distributed around the transition section 4. During operation, when the nipple is breastfeeding, when stimulated by the baby's sucking, the protrusions 6 are formed on the areola, increasing milk secretion and simultaneously acting as a conditioned reflex in the baby's mouth. Therefore, the protrusions 6 can act as a conditioned reflex in the baby's mouth, improving the baby's feeding reflex and accelerating the development of the sucking function.

[0021] Furthermore, the nipple body 1 is made of silicone material. When in use, the nipple body 1 made of silicone material is closer to the mother's nipple, has a moderate hardness and is more suitable for children to use.

[0022] Furthermore, the nipple body 1 has a first centerline 10 extending vertically, and the nipple head 2 has a second centerline 11 extending along the second centerline 11. The first centerline 10 and the second centerline 11 intersect at their distal ends, forming an acute angle between them. During operation, the nipple head 2 is tilted to reduce the height required by the caregiver to lift the nipple for feeding, facilitating operation.

[0023] Furthermore, the interior of the nipple body 1 is a hollow structure. When in operation, the hollow structure of the nipple body 1 can smoothly circulate milk.

[0024] Furthermore, the height of the silicone ridge 12 is greater than that of the transition section 4. The silicone ridge 12 extends upward into the nipple head 2 and is located below the milk outlet 5. During operation, the silicone ridge 12 not only reduces the probability of adhesion to the inner wall of the transition section 4, but also supports the nipple head 2, preventing the nipple head 2 from retracting into the transition section 4.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] When in use, the nipple body 1 is a wide-mouth nipple used in conjunction with a wide-mouth feeding bottle. The nipple body 1 made of silicone material is closer to the mother's nipple, simulating the mother's breast, and is convenient for the baby to use. During the sucking process of the baby, it is easy to squeeze the transition section 4. In this process, due to the cavity 7 between the silicone ridges 12 and the silicone ridges 12, and the obstruction of the first ridge 8 and the second ridge 9, the inner wall of the transition section 4 is difficult to fit together completely. Milk will still pass through the cavity 7, the gap between the first ridge 8 and the silicone ridge 12, the gap between the second ridge 9 and the second ridge 9, or the gap between the second ridge 9 and the first ridge 8, so that the baby can suck milk smoothly.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
