This product is a
bottle nipple attachment that connects either directly to the tip of a
baby bottle or to the tip of a
baby bottle via a tube part. Specifically, this product is integrally composed of a simulated breast made of a soft, elastic material that mimics
human skin and a
nursing nipple with a tip shape that mimics a nipple (see front view, rear view, right side view, and AA cross-sectional view). The simulated breast of this product consists of a bulge with a
surface shape and surface
hardness that mimics a mother's breast. The bulge of the simulated breast has a
nursing nipple molded as a convex shape in the center of the tip on the front, and a concave rear opening with a dome-shaped housing space formed on the back, i.e., the base side toward the
baby bottle. In addition, a cylindrical connection part consisting of a small cylindrical hole is molded in the center of the bottom of the rear opening, and a milk liquid outlet channel is molded internally from the cylindrical connection part toward the center of the
nursing nipple. Furthermore, the baby
bottle to which this product is attached has a fixed cap attached to the
bottle neck. This fixed cap is a fixed cap with a small connecting tube protruding from the upper center. When using this product by directly connecting it to the front of the baby bottle (in usage state 1), the artificial breast of this product is placed over the fixed cap of the baby bottle, and the connecting tube of the fixed cap with a connecting tube is inserted into the tube connection part of the artificial breast, thereby directly connecting and combining this product, the fixed cap, and the baby bottle (see the reference diagram of the exploded cross-section in usage state 1). In this feeding state in usage state 1, as shown in the reference diagram of the usage image in usage state 1, the artificial breast will be in contact with the infant's mouth and
cheek, allowing the infant to drink the milk liquid in the baby bottle in a feeding state similar to that of actual
breastfeeding. Note that the tube connection part provided in the center of the bottom of the rear opening can also be used to insert the tip connection part of the tube part, in addition to the connecting tube of the fixed cap with a connecting tube. In this case, the device is connected to the tip of the baby bottle via a tube part, resulting in usage state 2 (see the disassembled cross-sectional view of usage state 2). In this feeding state 2, as shown in the reference diagram of usage image for usage state 2, it is no longer necessary to keep the baby bottle in contact with the infant's mouth, reducing the burden of holding the bottle. In usage state 2, as in usage state 1, the artificial breast of this product can be in contact with the infant's mouth or
cheek, or with their fingers, allowing for a natural feeding state similar to actual
breastfeeding. By continuously using this product, favorable effects on the emotional development of infants can be expected.
