Abstract

A fastening ring (1) connects the teat (2) to the bottle (3), which is marked on its outer surface with indicators of the liquid flow rate out of the bottle. The teat is secured to the fastening ring by interlocking of recessed and projecting portions of the teat's end flange (20) with complementary relief formations (13) of the interior of the ring. The relative positions of the teat and ring are controlled by engagement of a projection (7) in the teat end flange with a hole (4) in the flat end portion of the ring. In the correct relative position, marks (9) formed in the teat surface corresponding to marks (5) in the cylindrical skirt (14) of the ring.

Description

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif pour la reconnaissance facile du positionnement d'une tétine de biberon dans la bouche d'un enfant, en vue de la régulation du passage plus ou moins important du liquide contenu dans le biberon. The present invention relates to a device for easy recognition of the positioning of a bottle nipple in the mouth of a child, with a view to regulating the more or less significant passage of the liquid contained in the bottle.

Parmi les différents types de tétines existant à ce jour on peut citer les tétines ergonomiques, celles qui présentent des orifices qui sont fonction des différents âges, et celles qui présentent sur leur pourtour des marques ou des chiffres permettant de réguler le débit du liquide en fonction de l'âge ou de la constitution de l'enfant. Among the different types of teats existing to date we can cite ergonomic teats, those that have holes that are a function of different ages, and those that have around their edges marks or figures to regulate the flow of liquid depending the age or constitution of the child.

Ce dernier type de tétine présente toutefois l'inconvénient que le marquage, réalisé sur la tétine ellemême, est nécessairement de petites dimensions, et est souvent difficilement lisible lorsque la tétine est dans la bouche de l'enfant, particulièrement lorsque la tétée est donnée la nuit ou dans une ambiance à faible luminosité. The latter type of teat, however, has the disadvantage that the marking, made on the teat itself, is necessarily small, and is often difficult to read when the teat is in the mouth of the child, particularly when the feed is given the at night or in a low-light atmosphere.

La présente invention a pour but de proposer un dispositif qui remédie à cet inconvénient. The object of the present invention is to propose a device which overcomes this drawback.

A cet effet le dispositif selon l'invention comprend une tétine rendue solidaire de l'anneau de fixation de ladite tétine au corps du biberon, ledit anneau de fixation présentant des marques bien visibles disposées sur son pourtour en regard des marques réalisées sur la tétine el le-meme.  To this end, the device according to the invention comprises a nipple made integral with the ring for fixing said nipple to the body of the bottle, said fixing ring having clearly visible marks arranged on its periphery opposite the marks made on the nipple. the same.

La solidarisation de la tétine et de l'anneau de fixation du dispositif selon l'invention est réalisée par encastrement réciproque de reliefs en creux et en saillie ménagés à la face supérieure de la corolle de la tétine et à la face interne de l'anneau de fixation,sur la totalité de leurs surfaces, le positionnement relatif de la tétine et de l'anneau étant fixé par au moins un téton qui fait saillie à la face supérieure de la corolle de la tétine et est destiné à être inséré dans une lumière ménagée à la face supérieure de l'anneau de fixation, lequel présente sur son pourtour des marques destinées à venir en regard des marques figurant sur la tétine lorsque l'assemblage est réalise.  The teat and the fixing ring of the device according to the invention are joined together by reciprocal embedding of recessed and protruding reliefs formed on the upper face of the teat corolla and on the internal face of the ring fixing, over all of their surfaces, the relative positioning of the teat and the ring being fixed by at least one nipple which protrudes from the upper face of the corolla of the teat and is intended to be inserted into a lumen formed on the upper face of the fixing ring, which has on its periphery marks intended to come opposite the marks appearing on the nipple when the assembly is carried out.

En vue d'améliorer la visibilité desdites marques sur l'anneau de fixation du biberon, elles peuvent être colorées dans la masse en une couleur sombre contrastant avec la couleur généralement claire dudit anneau. Elles peuvent également être réalisées dans une matière fluorescente ou luminescente les rendant visibles la nuit ou en lumière tamisée. In order to improve the visibility of said marks on the bottle fixing ring, they can be colored in the mass in a dark color contrasting with the generally light color of said ring. They can also be made in a fluorescent or luminescent material making them visible at night or in soft light.

Les avantages et les caractéristiques de la présente invention apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description qui suit et qui se rapporte au dessin annexé, lequel en représente un mode de réalisation non limitatif. The advantages and characteristics of the present invention will appear more clearly on reading the description which follows and which refers to the appended drawing, which represents a non-limiting embodiment thereof.

In the attached drawing
- Figure 1 shows a top view of a nipple of a device according to the invention.

- la figure 1 bis représente une vue latérale de cette même tétine
- la figure 2 représente une vue de dessous de l'anneau de fixation du dispositif selon l'invention
- la figure 3 représente les deux parties du dispositif selon l'invention avant assemblage sur le corps d'un biberon.
- Figure 1a shows a side view of the same teat
- Figure 2 shows a bottom view of the fixing ring of the device according to the invention
- Figure 3 shows the two parts of the device according to the invention before assembly on the body of a bottle.

Si on se réfère à la figure 1 on voit qu'une tétine 2 d'un dispositif selon l'invention comprend à sa base une corolle 20 surmontée d'une partie renflée 21 prolongée d'une tête 22 munie à son extrémité d'une fente 6. If we refer to Figure 1 we see that a teat 2 of a device according to the invention comprises at its base a corolla 20 surmounted by a bulged part 21 extended by a head 22 provided at its end with a slot 6.

La corolle 20 présente à sa face supérieure un relief 8 constitué d'une alternance de V et de V inversés formant des arêtes alternant avec des parties creuses, à la manière d'un pliage en accordéon. Un téton 7 fait saillie d'une de ces arêtes, et est positionné approximativement à égale distance des bords de la corolle 20. A la périphérie de la partie renflée 21 se trouvent positionnées des marques en relief 9 formées de barres correspondant dans ce cas précis à trois vitesses différentes de débit du liquide contenu dans le biberon. The corolla 20 has on its upper face a relief 8 consisting of an alternation of inverted V and V forming edges alternating with hollow parts, in the manner of an accordion folding. A stud 7 protrudes from one of these edges, and is positioned approximately equidistant from the edges of the corolla 20. At the periphery of the bulged portion 21 are positioned relief marks 9 formed from corresponding bars in this specific case at three different speeds of flow of the liquid contained in the bottle.

Si on se réfère maintenant à la figure 2 on voit que l'anneau de fixation 1 de la tétine 2 au corps du biberon comporte à sa face externe des marques en relief 5 prenant dans ce cas précis la forme de barres, ces marques 5 étant destinées à venir exactement en regard des marques 9 correspondantes ménagées à la périphérie de la tétine 2 lorsque celle-ci est assemblée avec l'anneau de fixation 1 par passage à travers l'ouverture circulaire 11 qu'il comporte en son centre. If we now refer to Figure 2 we see that the ring 1 for fixing the teat 2 to the body of the bottle has on its outer face raised marks 5 in this case taking the form of bars, these marks 5 being intended to come exactly opposite the corresponding marks 9 formed at the periphery of the nipple 2 when the latter is assembled with the fixing ring 1 by passing through the circular opening 11 which it comprises at its center.

La partie annulaire 10 de l'anneau 1 est munie à sa face interne d'un relief 13 identique au relief 8 de la corolle 20 de la tétine 2, en vue de permettre leur encastrement réciproque. Une lumière 4 est d'autre part ménagée dans cette partie annulaire 10 pour le passage du téton 7 de la tétine 2 en vue de bloquer l'assemblage dans la position convenable, les marques 9 de la tétine et 5 de l'anneau de fixation étant disposées en regard. The annular part 10 of the ring 1 is provided on its internal face with a relief 13 identical to the relief 8 of the corolla 20 of the teat 2, in order to allow their reciprocal embedding. A light 4 is on the other hand formed in this annular part 10 for the passage of the stud 7 of the teat 2 in order to block the assembly in the suitable position, the marks 9 of the teat and 5 of the fixing ring being arranged opposite.

Si on se réfère enfin à la figure 3 on voit que le dispositif selon l'invention peut être assemblé sur un biberon 3 muni à son extrémité d'un pas de vis extérieur 30 correspondant au pas de vis 12 ménagé à la face interne de la partie cylindrique 14 de l'anneau de fixation 1. Le vissage de l'anneau de fixation 1 sur le biberon 3 s'opère après que la tétine 2 ait été assemblée avec l'anneau 1 par passage du téton 7 dans la lumière 4, les reliefs 8 et 13 s'encastrant l'un dans l'autre et les marques 5 de l'anneau de fixation venant en regard des marques 9 correspondantes de la tétine.  If we finally refer to Figure 3 we see that the device according to the invention can be assembled on a bottle 3 provided at its end with an external thread 30 corresponding to the thread 12 formed on the internal face of the cylindrical part 14 of the fixing ring 1. The screwing of the fixing ring 1 on the bottle 3 takes place after the nipple 2 has been assembled with the ring 1 by passing the nipple 7 through the lumen 4, the reliefs 8 and 13 fitting one into the other and the marks 5 of the fixing ring coming opposite the corresponding marks 9 of the teat.
