7 Claims. Cl. 215-11 My invention relates to a disposable infants nursing bottle.
An object of my invention is to provide a nursing bottle which is made of inexpensive material and which can be discarded after use, thereby not requiring all of the attendant re-sterilization of glass bottles and the like.
A further object of my invention is to provide a construction which is rigid enough for the infant to handle or hold and which includes further means whereby the bottle can be easily and readily filled with milk.
A further object of my invention is to provide a device of this character which is of relatively simple construction.
With these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the construction, arrangement, and combination of the various parts of my device, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointed out in my claims, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure l is a sectional view taken longitudinally through the arrangement in its filling position,
Figure 2 is an enlarged detail,
Figure 3 is a further enlarged detail,
Figure 4 is a further enlarged detail, and
Figure 5 is a forward elevation of the bottle ready for use.
My invention contemplates the provision of an infants milk bottle whereby after use, the major portion of the bottle can be discarded and whereby certain other portions can be used over and over again, this feature thereby providing a great many advantages of sanitation and without requiring the usual cumbersome re-sterilization of bottles and other operations.
I have used the character to designate the nipple end of the bottle which includes the small openings 11, these openings 11 being sealed by means of the adhesively attached member 12 terminating in the tab 13.
The nipple 10 extends into the further portions 14 which gradually merge with the extremely thin or attenuated cylindrical portion 15. The nipple and the portion 15 is preferably made of an inexpensive plastic, such as vinyl plastic, and attached over each side of the cylindrical member 15 at the upper terminals thereof are the pair of metal foil or other channel members 16 which include the pairs of extending tabs 17 at either side thereof.
The character 18 indicates a cylindrical aluminum member or support having the annular shoulder at 19 upon which rests the shoulder portion 20 which is an integral part of the nipple portion 14. It will be observed from Figure 1 that the upper end of the cylindrical member 15 is completely open and is ready for the pouring operation. The infants milk meanwhile has been prepared in any large vessel to the proper temperature and other requirements, and it will be notedthat in this position the member 15 can be filled practically full of milk. Receiving the member 15 is a rigid further cylindrical plastic member 21 which provides rigidity to the 2,879,911 PateatedMar. 31, 1959 r, ice
arrangement, and the arrangement is thus quickly and easily filled.
After filling nearly to the top, the tabs 17 are grasped and are rotated about their longitudinal axes, whereby the end of the member 15 will appear as in Figure 2, thereby providing a very tight seal at this point. One of the tabs 17 is then bent backwardly over the top of the member 15 (see Figure 3) and the other tab is bent downwardly into a vertical position as shown and adjacent to the tubular member or shell 21.
I provide a resilient rubber cap member 22 having the resilient cylindrical side wall 23 which is pressed down firmly as clearly shown in Figure 3, thereby securing this end of the infants bottle, and the flaps 17.
The member 21 and the enclosed bottle are then taken out of the member 18 and reversed and will then occupy the position shown in Figure 5 and the member 12 is then torn oil? by means of the tab 13. The bottle can then be stored inthe refrigerator, and if it is desired to maintain the contents completely sealed the tab 12 can be left on.
The entire device including the outer member 21 and the inner casing with the nipple can then be handed to the infant, the member 21 providing the required rigidity. After use the member 15, member 10, etc. are removed by removing the cap 22, and these parts can be thrown away, these portions being cheap enough so that a great many can be purchased at one time. These portions should also be supplied in sterilized containers or wrappings when sold to provide complete sanitation.
It will also be noted that several of the bottles can be filled at one time and then stored.
It will now be noted that I have provided the advantages mentioned in the objects of 'my invention with other advantages being readily apparent.
Some changes may be made in the construction and arrangement of the parts of my invention without departing from the real spirit and purpose of my invention, and it is my intention to cover by my claims any modified forms of structure or use of mechanical equivalents which may be reasonably included within their scope.
I claim as my invention:
