Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of maternal and infant products technology, and in particular to an integrated milk collector. Background Technology

[0002] As we all know, after breastfeeding, mothers often experience excess milk leaking from their nipples. If this milk isn't collected promptly or ignored, it can drip onto the floor or soak their clothes, causing embarrassment. Therefore, many mothers choose to use a breast pump to collect excess milk after breastfeeding.

[0003] Currently, most existing breast milk collectors consist of a container bottle with a funnel-shaped nozzle attached to the bottle opening. Squeezing the bottle forces the nozzle to adhere to the breast through negative pressure, eliminating the need for hand gripping and allowing for continuous, natural, and painless milk collection. However, the container bottle, while serving as a milk collection vessel, also needs to be deformable under pressure, so it is generally made of silicone. Furthermore, to prevent the nozzle from becoming too rigid for proper suction, many breast milk collectors incorporate reinforcing ribs at the bottle opening, such as the breast milk collector disclosed in patent number 201920751689.X.

[0004] Under these conditions, the container must be made of a soft material, and the bottle opening must have reinforcing ribs, which largely limits the container design. Therefore, it is necessary to upgrade the structure of existing milk collectors. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated milk collector.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An integrated milk collector includes a container bottle and a flared nozzle integrally injection molded with the container bottle. The flared nozzle is made of soft rubber and is located on the inner end face of the container bottle and communicates with the inner cavity of the container bottle. A pressing part is formed on the outer end face of the container bottle, and flexible deformation parts are provided around the pressing part of the container bottle.

[0008] Preferably, the deformed shape has at least one annular groove.

[0009] Preferably, the inner opening of the container bottle and the flared nozzle are further provided with an inwardly extending inner skirt, which is flush with the end face of the flared nozzle.

[0010] Preferably, an arc-shaped flow guide surface is provided at the junction of the inner wall of the container bottle and the flared nozzle.

[0011] Preferably, the container bottle is flat.

[0012] Preferably, the container bottle is made of a transparent material.

[0013] Preferably, the container bottle has graduation lines on its side.

[0014] Preferably, the container bottle is provided with a transparent window.

[0015] By adopting the above solution, this utility model provides a pressing part on the outer end face of the container bottle and a deformation part around the pressing part. The deformation part is used to expel some of the air inside the container bottle, which can reduce or even eliminate the need for the container bottle to deform, thus satisfying the negative pressure adsorption of the flared mouth. This allows for more flexible and diverse choices of container bottle materials. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "clockwise," and "counterclockwise," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. They can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection. They can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an integrated milk collector, including a container bottle 1 and a flared nozzle 2 integrally injection molded with the container bottle 1. The flared nozzle 2 is made of soft rubber and is located on the inner end face of the container bottle 1 and communicates with the inner cavity of the container bottle 1. A pressing part 3 is formed on the outer end face of the container bottle 1, and flexible deformation parts 4 are provided around the pressing part 3 of the container bottle 1.

[0023] This embodiment establishes a pressing part 3 on the outer end face of the container bottle 1, and a deformation part 4 is established around the pressing part 3. The deformation part 4 deforms to expel some of the air inside the container bottle 1, reducing or eliminating the need for deformation of the container bottle 1 while still satisfying the negative pressure adsorption of the spout 2. This allows for more flexible and diverse material selection for the container bottle 1. For example, the container bottle 1 can be made of food-grade silicone, with the entire container bottle 1 being a rigid silicone material with a certain degree of rigidity. The deformation part 4 can be made thin, allowing it to deform under external force, thus freeing the container bottle 1 from the requirement of pressing deformation. Of course, even with rigid silicone, slight deformation will occur during use, but the deformation part 4 is still the primary source of negative pressure deformation. This design eliminates the need for reinforcing ribs when using rigid silicone.

[0024] Meanwhile, the size of the container bottle 1 is designed to be large enough for a consumer to grip with one hand, and its shape is preferably elliptical. This facilitates one-handed gripping, and the positioning of the pressing part 3 allows the user to press it with their fingers after gripping the bottle with one hand, making operation very convenient. Furthermore, it should be noted that in this embodiment, pouring milk also only requires one hand. After gripping the container bottle 1 with one hand, it is inverted downwards, allowing the collected milk to pour out from the spout 2. To facilitate pouring, an arc-shaped guide surface 7 is provided at the junction of the inner wall of the container bottle 1 and the spout 2. The milk flows along the guide surface 7, allowing for better pouring.

[0025] Furthermore, regarding the design of the deformable part 4, in order not to rely solely on the deformation capability of the deformable part 4 itself, this embodiment provides at least one annular groove 5 on the deformable part 4. With this design, the deformable part 4 can meet a wider range of deformation requirements. The principle is to increase the span of the deformable part 4.

[0026] Furthermore, in order to avoid affecting the flared nozzle 2, the container bottle 1 in this embodiment is flat. With this design, even if the container bottle 1 itself deforms, the container bottle 1 will be compressed by the side after being pressed on the outer end face. Therefore, neither rebound nor compression will affect the suction of the flared nozzle 2, ensuring the stability of the negative pressure suction of the flared nozzle 2.

[0027] Furthermore, when collecting milk, it is necessary to keep the breast and the nozzle adsorbed for a certain period of time. Therefore, in order to improve the comfort during adsorption, the inner cavity of the container bottle 1 and the nozzle 2 in this embodiment are provided with an inwardly extending inner skirt 8. The inner skirt 8 and the end face of the nozzle 2 are flush with each other. This can increase the contact area with the breast, reduce the pressure on the breast, and thus improve comfort.

[0028] Furthermore, to facilitate users' viewing of the milk collection status inside container bottle 1, the container bottle 1 in this embodiment is made of transparent material, and a scale line 6 is provided on the side of the container bottle 1. Of course, container bottle 1 can also be made of semi-transparent material. In order to clearly see the internal situation when container bottle 1 is made of semi-transparent material, a transparent window 9 is provided on container bottle 1, through which users can view the specific situation of the milk collection inside.

[0029] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
