Abstract

The invention relates to additions and improvements to a lid of the type used to prevent the means for dispensing a liquid from a feeding bottle from being contaminated by external agents. The invention includes a device which can be added to a conventional feeding bottle, formed by a pair of hinged arms that are secured at one end to the body of the bottle and at the other end to one of the two halves into which the modified lid is divided, such that each arm supports the corresponding lid half in a first position in which the teat is protected and a second use position in which the teat can be accessed by the user. In addition, each arm keeps each lid half close to the body of the bottle at a point intended for this purpose, so as to prevent lids from being misplaced and to improve the hygienic transport and dispensing conditions.

DISPOSITIVO PARA BIBERONES QUE EVITA EL EXTRAVÍO DEL TAPÓN Y MEJORA LAS CONDICIONES HIGIÉNICAS DE DISPENSADO DEL LÍQUIDO BIBERON DEVICE THAT AVOID THE REMOVAL OF THE PLUG AND IMPROVES HYGIENIC LIQUID DISPENSING CONDITIONS

CAMPO TÉCNICOTECHNICAL FIELD

La presente invención se relaciona con contenedores de liquidos para consumo humano o animal, del tipo empleado para alimentar a lactantes, conocidos comúnmente como biberones, y específicamente, con los dispositivos para evitar la contaminación por agentes externos de los medios de dispensado del liquido, denominados mamilas, y más específicamente, con medios que evitan el extravio de dichos dispositivos y permiten mejorar las condiciones de higiene en el transporte y dispensado del liquido al lactante.The present invention relates to liquid containers for human or animal consumption, of the type used to feed infants, commonly known as bottles, and specifically, with devices to prevent contamination by external agents of the liquid dispensing means, called mamilas, and more specifically, with means that prevent the loss of said devices and allow to improve the conditions of hygiene in the transport and dispensing of the liquid to the infant.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Un problema que se presenta con frecuencia durante el uso de contendores con tapas removibles, es que la tapa puede extraviarse fácilmente cuando es retirada de su posición de uso sobre el contenedor a fin de tener acceso al contenido. Existen muchos ejemplos en el campo de los contenedores en general que se dirigen a resolver dicho problema, proponiendo diversas _ o —A problem that occurs frequently during the use of containers with removable lids is that the lid can be easily lost when it is removed from its use position on the container in order to access the contents. There are many examples in the field of containers in general that are aimed at solving this problem, proposing various _ or -

alternativas para mantener la tapa próxima al contenedor e incluso para sujetarla a éste mientras la tapa no está en uso.alternatives to keep the lid close to the container and even to hold it while the lid is not in use.

El problema descrito se agrava cuando el contenedor en cuestión es uno destinado a conservar materiales destinados al consumo humano o animal. Es bien conocido por las personas que han alimentado lactantes por medio de biberones, que es fácil extraviar el tapón que cubre la tapa con mamila de un biberón, ya sea por la expulsión inadvertida del tapón durante su transporte, o bien por la pérdida en el momento de retirarlo para acceder a la mamila y alimentar al lactante, y durante el tiempo que dure la alimentación, tiempo en el cual el tapón normalmente es colocado lejos del lactante para evitar que le pueda causar algún daño. El extravio del tapón imposibilita volver a cubrir la mamila, ya sea para resguardar el contenido no utilizado para uso posterior, o para su transporte y uso futuro. La única manera de reponer el tapón es mediante la compra de un repuesto.The problem described is aggravated when the container in question is one intended to conserve materials intended for human or animal consumption. It is well known by people who have fed infants by means of bottles, that it is easy to misplace the cap that covers the bottle cap with a bottle, either by inadvertent expulsion of the cap during transport, or by the loss in the time to remove it to access the breast and feed the infant, and for the duration of the feeding, at which time the cap is normally placed away from the infant to avoid causing any damage. The loss of the cap makes it impossible to cover the bottle again, either to protect the contents not used for later use, or for transport and future use. The only way to replace the cap is by buying a spare.

Otro problema, especialmente grave es que aquella zona del tapón que ha de estar en contacto o proximidad con la mamila (que ha de ser succionada directamente por el lactante) , se vea expuesta a contaminación, por ejemplo por el polvo, por insectos o por cualquier otra fuente; en las soluciones propuestas hasta ahora, el tapón cuando se retira de la tapa con mamila queda abierto al contacto con el medio ambiente y por tanto el lactante es susceptible de adquirir algún contaminante (bacterias, hongos, etc.) a través de la mamila que haya tomado contacto con el tapón.Another problem, especially serious, is that the area of the plug that has to be in contact or proximity with the breast (which has to be sucked directly by the infant), is exposed to contamination, for example by dust, insects or any other source; In the solutions proposed so far, the plug when removed from the lid with mamila is open to contact with the environment and therefore the infant is able to acquire some contaminant (bacteria, fungi, etc.) through the breast that has made contact with the cap.

Algunos ejemplos de las alternativas propuestas para resolver los problemas planteados, se exponen a continuación.Some examples of the proposed alternatives to solve the problems raised, are set out below.

En el ámbito de los contenedores en general, se encuentran algunas aplicaciones interesantes especialmente para los contenedores de basura.In the field of containers in general, there are some interesting applications especially for garbage containers.

La patente de los Estados Unidos No. 3,363,924 (Remig, 1968) presenta un contenedor de basura típico, en el cual la tapa se sujeta por medio de dos elementos elásticos localizados diame feralmente opuestos que van desde los postes verticales del asa de la tapa hacia las asas localizadas diametralmente opuestas sobre el cuerpo del contenedor; para ayudar al acoplamiento, los elementos elásticos se atan al asa de la tapa y se sujetan a las asas del contenedor por medio de ganchos.US Patent No. 3,363,924 (Remig, 1968) presents a typical garbage container, in which the lid is held by two diametrically opposed elastic elements located from the vertical posts of the lid handle to the diametrically opposite handles on the body of the container; To aid coupling, the elastic elements are attached to the handle of the lid and fastened to the handles of the container by means of hooks.

La patente de los Estados Unidos No. 6,041,960 (Leal, 2000) es una modalidad alternativa que aprovecha la configuración del contenedor con asas próximas a la boca del mismo y la concavidad de la tapa para usar como un sujetador a una tira semiflexible que se sujeta firmemente al punto medio, más alto, de la tapa; se dobla hacia abajo y los extremos de la tira se sujetan a las asas en el cuerpo del contenedor; de esta manera la propia tira ejerce una presión hacia abajo en la tapa, para mantenerla cerrada. Para liberar la tapa, se suelta uno solo de los extremos de la tira, la que se retira deslizándose hacia arriba y quedando entonces colgando de la otra asa.US Patent No. 6,041,960 (Leal, 2000) is an alternative modality that takes advantage of the configuration of the container with handles near the mouth of the container and the concavity of the lid to use as a fastener to a semi-flexible strip that is held firmly to the middle, highest point of the lid; it bends down and the ends of the strip will hold the handles on the body of the container; in this way the strip itself exerts a downward pressure on the lid, to keep it closed. To release the lid, only one of the ends of the strip is released, which is removed by sliding upwards and then hanging from the other handle.

En la patente de los Estados Unidos Mo. 5,156,292 (Ross, 1992) la tapa de un contenedor se sujeta desde dos extremos diametralmente opuestos por un par de bandas elásticas que se unen a un gancho común en la parte inferior del contenedor; el gancho se sujeta a una ranura o acanaladura en el extremo inferior del contenedor. La tapa se mantiene en su lugar por la presión en la dirección hacia abajo ejercida por las bandas elásticas .In US Pat. No. 5,156,292 (Ross, 1992) the lid of a container is held from two diametrically opposed ends by a pair of elastic bands that are attached to a common hook at the bottom of the container; The hook is attached to a groove or groove in the lower end of the container. The lid is held in place by the pressure in the downward direction exerted by the elastic bands.

La patente de los Estados Unidos No. 5,090,583 (Hoffman et. al., 1992) describe un tapón para un recipiente, el cual se mantiene próximo a dicho contenedor por medio de dos brazos flexibles que le sujetan al cuerpo del contenedor por medio de un anillo, y que se sitúan en dos puntos diametralmente opuestos de dicho tapón; . Para abrir el contenedor, es necesario romper uno de los brazos de manera que el tapón se desplace longitudinalmente hacia fuera de la punta del contenedor al flexionar el segundo brazo. En el ámbito de los contenedores del tipo de biberones, la patente de los Estados Unidos No. 5,361,918 (Masón, 1994) describe un tapón que se sujeta a la tapa con mamila de un biberón y que además tiene la función de mantener en el interior de su cuerpo, una cantidad determinada de un material tal como polvo de una formulación alimenticia; el dispositivo se acopla a la tapa con mamila del biberón, y puede separarse de aquella para permitir el acceso a la mamila asi como al contenido del biberón y del propio dispositivo.US Patent No. 5,090,583 (Hoffman et. Al., 1992) describes a cap for a container, which is held close to said container by means of two flexible arms that hold the container body by means of a ring, and which are located at two diametrically opposite points of said stopper; . To open the container, it is necessary to break one of the arms so that the cap moves longitudinally out of the tip of the container when flexing the second arm. In the field of bottle-type containers, U.S. Patent No. 5,361,918 (Mason, 1994) describes a cap that is attached to the bottle cap of a bottle and also has the function of keeping inside from your body, a certain amount of a material such as powder from a food formulation; The device is attached to the bottle cap with a bottle, and can be separated from it to allow access to the bottle as well as the contents of the bottle and the device itself.

La patente de los Estados Unidos No. 5,653,353 (Otto et al, 1997) describe un tapón para biberón, que se sujeta por medio de una correa desprendible a la propia tapa que sujeta la mamila al biberón; como se puede apreciar, este simple dispositivo resuelve el problema de mantener al tapón sujeto al cuerpo del biberón, a fin de evitar el extravio de aquél, sin embargo aún se mantiene el problema de contaminación del interior del tapón y por ende de la mamila cuando el tapón se reposiciona sobre éste.United States Patent No. 5,653,353 (Otto et al, 1997) describes a bottle cap, which is fastened by means of a removable strap to the cap that holds the bottle to the bottle; As can be seen, this simple device solves the problem of keeping the cap attached to the body of the bottle, in order to avoid the loss of the bottle, however the problem of contamination of the inside of the cap and therefore of the bottle is still maintained when the cap is repositioned on it.

La patente de los Estados Unidos No. 6,302,286 (Witherspoon, 2001) describe un biberón en el que el tapón de la mamila se mantiene cercano al biberón cuando no se le está usando para tapar la mamila, por medio de un brazo que se sujeta en un extremo al tapón y en el otro extremo a un anillo que se dispone alrededor del cuello del cuerpo del biberón y se mantiene en ese lugar por el acoplamiento de la tapa con la mamila, que se enrosca en la parte superior del cuerpo del biberón. El anillo puede girar libremente y también puede moverse a lo largo del cuello del biberón; el brazo es suficientemente flexible para que el tapón pueda ajustarse sobre la tapa con la mamila para resguardarlo de contaminantes, asi como para permitir liberar la mamila para su utilización por el lactante. El tapón cuando no está en su posición de uso resguardando la mamila, gira libremente alrededor del cuerpo del biberón dejando expuesta su superficie interior a la intemperie, con el consecuente riesgo de contaminación.US Patent No. 6,302,286 (Witherspoon, 2001) describes a bottle in which the cap of the bottle is kept close to the bottle when it is not being used to cover the bottle, by means of an arm that is held in one end to the cap and at the other end to a ring that is arranged around the neck of the bottle body and is held in that place by the coupling of the lid with the bottle, which is screwed into the upper part of the body of the bottle. The ring can rotate freely and can also move along the neck of the bottle; The arm is flexible enough so that the cap can be adjusted over the lid with the bottle to protect it from contaminants, as well as to allow the bottle to be released for use by the infant. The cap, when not in its position of use, protecting the mammoth, rotates freely around the body of the bottle leaving its inner surface exposed to the weather, with the consequent risk of contamination.

Una aproximación diferente a los problemas de manejo de los componentes de un biberón, lo presenta la patente de los Estados Unidos No. 6,123,210 (Kim, 2000), en donde para evitar la pérdida del tapón del biberón cuando éste está en uso por el lactante, el tapón se acopla a un segundo sitio diseñado a tal fin en el cuerpo del biberón; la posición de esta segunda locación permite que el conjunto de biberón y tapón pueda usarse para posicionar correctamente al biberón para una succión apropiada por el lactante (evitar la succión de burbujas de aire cuando el lactante está recostado sobre su espalda) . OBJETIVOS DE LA INVENCIÓNA different approach to the problems of handling the components of a bottle is presented by United States Patent No. 6,123,210 (Kim, 2000), where to avoid the loss of the bottle cap when it is in use by the infant , the cap is coupled to a second site designed for this purpose in the body of the bottle; The position of this second location allows the bottle and cap assembly to be used to correctly position the bottle for proper suction by the infant (avoid sucking air bubbles when the infant is lying on his back). OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION

A la luz de las limitaciones y problemas que presentan los desarrollos hasta ahora propuestos en el arte previo, es un objeto de la presente invención, proporcionar un dispositivo para mantener el tapón del biberón disponible y próximo, mientras el biberón está siendo utilizado por el lactante, de manera que no se extravie y se mantenga un grado adecuado de higiene en la manipulación de dicho biberón una vez que el lactante ha dejado de utilizarlo.In the light of the limitations and problems presented by the developments so far proposed in the prior art, it is an object of the present invention to provide a device for keeping the bottle cap available and nearby, while the bottle is being used by the infant , so that an adequate degree of hygiene is not lost and maintained in the handling of said bottle once the infant has stopped using it.

DESCRIPCIÓN DETALLADA DE LA INVENCIÓNDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

La siguiente descripción será referida a los dibujos acompañantes, que deben entenderse como ilustrativos de la modalidad preferida de la invención y no limitativos del alcance de la misma. Los elementos comunes en las figuras, tienen las mismas referencias numéricas en todas ellas.The following description will refer to the accompanying drawings, which should be understood as illustrative of the preferred embodiment of the invention and not limiting the scope thereof. The common elements in the figures have the same numerical references in all of them.

A fin de evitar confusiones en cuanto al uso de ciertos términos, se conviene en las siguientes acepciones: por "mamila" se entenderá la ampolla de material elástico, generalmente látex o plástico suave por el que fluye el liquido desde el contenedor hacia el exterior por la acción de succión del lactante; por "tapa" se refiere al anillo normalmente roscado internamente que sujeta a la "mamila" y la retiene contra la boca del contenedor; por "biberón" se entenderá el conjunto del contenedor, "tapa" y "mamila" descritos antes; finalmente, las referencias al término "tapón" han de entenderse que se hacen hacia un dispositivo de forma troncocónica y cuya base es un cilindro de baja altura, que sirve para cubrir y proteger al par tapa-mamila, y que normalmente se sujeta a este par por presión a lo largo de la :ona anular de la tapa que se hace corresponder con la respectiva zona cilindrica inferior (anular) del tapón, a la 5 que se ajusta; convencionalmente las superficies en contacto de la tapa y el tapón presentan rugosidades o texturizados que mejoran el ajuste entre ellos e impiden en buena medida, aunque no totalmente, el desprendimiento inadvertido del tapón del conjunto de biberón.In order to avoid confusion regarding the use of certain terms, it is agreed in the following meanings: "mamila" means the blister of elastic material, usually latex or soft plastic through which the liquid flows from the container to the outside by the sucking action of the infant; by "cover" refers to the normally internally threaded ring that holds the "mamila" and retains it against the mouth of the container; "Bottle" means the container assembly, "lid" and "mamila" described above; Finally, the references to the term "plug" should be understood to be made towards a truncated cone-shaped device and whose base is a low-rise cylinder, which it serves to cover and protect the lid-mamila pair, and which is normally subjected to this pair by pressure along the: annular ring of the cover that corresponds to the respective lower cylindrical (annular) zone of the cap, to the 5 that fits; Conventionally, the contact surfaces of the cap and the cap have roughness or textures that improve the fit between them and prevent, although not totally, the inadvertent detachment of the cap from the bottle assembly.

La Figura 1 muestra una vista lateral de un biberón convencional (100) con un cuerpo esencialmente cilindrico (110), una tapa (no visible en esta vista) y una mamila (130), la tapa y la mamila (130) se cubren por medio del tapón (140)Figure 1 shows a side view of a conventional bottle (100) with an essentially cylindrical body (110), a lid (not visible in this view) and a mamila (130), the lid and the mamila (130) are covered by middle of the cap (140)

15 modificado que es parte de la invención, el cual se divide en dos secciones iguales entre si (referidas también como "semitapones") , que se sujetan al cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) por medio de brazos móviles (150) flexibles que se sujetan de manera movible a dicho cuerpo (110) por el empleo de 0 medios apropiados de sujeción (160) que a su vez se acoplan con el cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) por medio de un cinto (159) de forma de cilindro hueco de baja altura que se ajusta al cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) . 5 Las dos secciones del tapón (140) modificado de la invención, se separan al accionar los brazos móviles (150) flexibles, de manera que se libera el conjunto de mamila (130) y tapa (120) para hacerlo accesible por el lactante, como se muestra en las Figuras 2 a 5, que ilustran varias etapas en el proceso de llevar el tapón (140) desde una primer posición de uso cubriendo al conjunto de tapa y mamila (130) a la segunda posición en que se permite el acceso a la mamila (130) por el lactante .15 modified which is part of the invention, which is divided into two sections equal to each other (also referred to as "half-caps"), which are attached to the body (110) of the bottle (100) by means of flexible movable arms (150) which are movably fastened to said body (110) by the use of 0 appropriate fastening means (160) which in turn are coupled with the body (110) of the bottle (100) by means of a belt (159) of hollow cylinder shape of low height that fits the body (110) of the bottle (100). The two sections of the modified plug (140) of the invention are separated by actuating the flexible movable arms (150) of so that the assembly of mamila (130) and cover (120) is released to make it accessible by the infant, as shown in Figures 2 to 5, which illustrate several stages in the process of carrying the cap (140) from a first position of use covering the cover and mamila assembly (130) to the second position in which access to the mamila (130) is allowed by the infant.

La Figura 2 muestra un primer paso, donde las dos secciones del tapón (140) se separan al flexionar hacia atrás cada uno de los bracos móviles (150) flexibles simétricos, según el sentido de las flechas "A", actuando los medios de sujeción (160) que están acoplados al cinto de sujeción (159) , y las uniones flexibles entre los elementos constitutivos del brazo (150).Figure 2 shows a first step, where the two sections of the cap (140) are separated by flexing back each of the symmetrical flexible movable arms (150), according to the direction of the arrows "A", the clamping means acting (160) which are coupled to the fastening belt (159), and the flexible joints between the constituent elements of the arm (150).

En la Figura 3, el conjunto de brazo móvil (150) flexible y la sección de tapón (140) correspondiente, se giran alrededor del eje central del medio de sujeción (160) , como se indica por la flecha "B", de manera que el domo de la sección de tapón (140) se dirija hacia el fondo del cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) . Esta acción se efectúa sobre los dos brazos para quedar como se ilustra en la Figura 4, donde se ejerce presión sobre las dos secciones del tapón (140) modificado como se indica por el sentido de las flechas "C", para asegurar estos extremos en los medios de aseguramiento (170) que se localizan a ambos lados del cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) ; estos medios de aseguramiento (170) tienen forma de pequeños ganchos que se proyectan en una medida tal que permiten retener a las proyecciones (148) y (149) (refiérase a las Figuras 7 a 9 para una vista ampliada de estos elementos) , el cuerpo de estos ganchos es suficientemente flexible para liberar las proyecciones (148) y (149) cuando se ejerce suficiente presión sobre ellos en la dirección hacia el fondo del cuerpo del biberón (110) , regresando a su posición original una vez que cesa la presión; la Figura 6 muestra una representación esquemática de una vista frontal de esos medios de aseguramiento (170) y su posición relativa con los demás elementos de la invención sobre el cuerpo (110) del biberónIn Figure 3, the flexible movable arm assembly (150) and the corresponding plug section (140) are rotated around the central axis of the clamping means (160), as indicated by the arrow "B", so that the dome of the cap section (140) is directed towards the bottom of the body (110) of the bottle (100). This action is performed on the two arms to be as illustrated in Figure 4, where pressure is exerted on the two sections of the plug (140) modified as indicated by the direction of the arrows "C", to secure these ends in the securing means (170) that are located on both sides of the body (110) of the bottle (100); these means of securing (170) are shaped like small hooks that project in such a way that they allow the projections (148) and (149) to be retained (refer to Figures 7 to 9 for an enlarged view of these elements), the body of these Hooks are flexible enough to release the projections (148) and (149) when sufficient pressure is exerted on them in the direction towards the bottom of the bottle body (110), returning to their original position once the pressure ceases; Figure 6 shows a schematic representation of a front view of these securing means (170) and their relative position with the other elements of the invention on the body (110) of the bottle

(100) .(100)

Debe observarse en la Figura 5 que en la segunda posición de uso del dispositivo de la invención, la mamila (130) se encuentra completamente libre para ser usada por el lactante, que ambas secciones del tapón (140) modificado se encuentran sujetas al biberón (100), asi como que el interior de ambas secciones se protege de una exposición directa a la intemperie, evitando la contaminación. Para lograr una protección a la contaminación efectiva, se dota al cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) con dos soportes laterales alternos (175) , que permiten acoplar a la mitad de tapón (140) respectiva y retenerla en su lugar en la segunda posición de uso del dispositivo de la invención, con ayuda de los medios de sujeción (170) . Se observa en esta Figura 5 que los brazos móviles (150) flexibles en esta segunda posición de uso del dispositivo de la invención, funcionan a modo de asas para el soporte del biberón (100) por el lactante, ya que tanto en los puntos de sujeción (160) al cuerpo (110) del biberón (100) en el cinto (159) como en los medios (170) y (175) sujetan a los brazos.It should be noted in Figure 5 that in the second position of use of the device of the invention, the breast (130) is completely free to be used by the infant, that both sections of the modified cap (140) are attached to the bottle ( 100), as well as that the interior of both sections is protected from direct exposure to the weather, avoiding contamination. In order to achieve effective protection against contamination, the body (110) of the bottle (100) is provided with two alternate lateral supports (175), which allow coupling the respective cap half (140) and retaining it in place in the second position of use of the device of the invention, with the aid of the clamping means (170). It is observed in this Figure 5 that the flexible mobile arms (150) in this second position of use of the device of the invention, function as handles for the support of the bottle (100) by the infant, since both at the points of attachment (160) to the body (110) of the bottle (100) in the belt (159) as in the means (170) and (175) attached to the arms.

La Figuras 7 a 9 ilustran una modalidad preferida de medios de acoplamiento y sujeción mutua de las dos secciones del tapón (140) modificado de la invención, en las que se aprecia que cada sección del tapón (140) consta de una base semicilindrica (144) y un cuerpo semi-troncocónico (142); de hecho, es un tapón convencional seccionado por su plano medio vertical, la base semicilindrica se rodea por un cinto (146) semicircular que se acopla a la periferia de cada mitad del tapón (140) ; en este cinto (146) se sujetan medios (151) apropiados para acoplar el arco superior (152) del brazo móvil (150) flexible a dicho cinto (146) .Figures 7 to 9 illustrate a preferred embodiment of coupling and mutual clamping means of the two sections of the modified plug (140) of the invention, in which it is appreciated that each section of the plug (140) consists of a semi-cylindrical base (144 ) and a semi-frustoconical body (142); in fact, it is a conventional plug sectioned by its vertical half plane, the semi-cylindrical base is surrounded by a semicircular belt (146) that is coupled to the periphery of each half of the plug (140); in this belt (146) appropriate means (151) are attached to couple the upper arch (152) of the flexible mobile arm (150) to said belt (146).

En el domo del semitapón (140), se observa una lengüeta (148) que ocupa solamente la mitad del borde del domo; en esta proyección se aprecia también una proyección cilindrica (148') hacia fuera del plano de corte del semitapón (140), siendo más evidente este detalle en la Figura 8; sobre el mismo borde del domo, se levantan dos pequeñas protuberancias (148") que se corresponden con la parte inferior de la proyección cilindrica (149') de la lengüeta (149) de la otra sección del tapón (140), y que se ajustan apretadamente con dicha proyección (149') para formar un broche dΛ presión. La misma configuración y funciones se aprecian en la otra sección del tapón (140) . Las dos mitades del tapón (140) se mantienen unidas cuando se presionan entre si, de manera que las proyecciones (148' ) y (149' ) ocupan sus respectivas posiciones por encima de las protuberancias (149") y (148") respectivamente, toda vez que los bazos ejercen presión para sujetar al tapón en posición respecto al conjunto de tapa (120) y mamila (130) ; para liberar las mitades del tapón (140), se ejerce presión sobre las lengüetas (148) yIn the half-stop dome (140), a tongue (148) is observed that occupies only half of the edge of the dome; This projection also shows a cylindrical projection (148 ') out of the cut plane of the half-stop (140), this detail being more evident in Figure 8; on the same edge of the dome, there are two small bumps (148 ") they correspond to the lower part of the cylindrical projection (149 ') of the tongue (149) of the other section of the plug (140), and which fit tightly with said projection (149') to form a snap. The same configuration and functions can be seen in the other section of the cap (140). The two halves of the cap (140) are held together when pressed together, so that the projections (148 ') and (149') occupy their respective positions above the protuberances (149 ") and (148") respectively , every time the spleens exert pressure to hold the cap in position with respect to the lid assembly (120) and mammoth (130); to release the halves of the cap (140), pressure is applied to the tabs (148) and

(149) en sentidos opuestos y en la dirección hacia fuera de las mitades, esto es, separando dichas mitades entre si.(149) in opposite directions and in the direction away from the halves, that is, separating said halves from each other.

La Figura 9 muestra la mitad derecha, con fines de mantener congruencia en las referencias numéricas si bien ambas mitades son idénticas entre si, del dispositivo de la invención, apreciándose los siguientes elementos constitutivos: un cinto (159) circular destinado a rodear el cuerpo (110) del biberónFigure 9 shows the right half, in order to maintain congruence in the numerical references although both halves are identical to each other, of the device of the invention, the following constituent elements being appreciated: a circular belt (159) intended to surround the body ( 110) bottle

(100) (no ilustrado en esta Figura) y sujetar el brazo móvil(100) (not illustrated in this Figure) and hold the movable arm

(150) ; medios elásticos móviles (160) de sujeción del brazo móvil (150) con el cinto (159) , estos medios son tales que permiten la rotación del conjunto de brazo móvil (150) flexible como se muestra por la flecha "B" de la Figura 3, en cualquier sentido, el elemento de unión es suficientemente rígido para permitir dicha rotación pero suficientemente elástico para permitir el desplazamiento del conjunto de brazo (150) en un movimiento de alejamiento del biberón (100) como se ilustra en las Figuras 2 a 5, pudiendo ser dichos medios (160) del tipo de acoplamiento de bola y vastago y siendo la flexibilidad proporcionada por ligamentos elásticos entre el brazo y dichos medios de sujeción (160); el conjunto de brazo móvil (150) flexible se compone de un primer arco (156) entre los medios móviles de sujeción (160) y un elemento móvil elástico (154); el elemento móvil elástico (154) que permite el movimiento relativo entre si , de los dos arcos del brazo móvil (150) tiene características similares a los medios (160) en el sentido de permitir la separación de los arcos (152) y (156), siendo posible el empleo de una articulación de bola y vastago o de un ligamento elástico convencionales; un segundo arco (152) entre el elemento móvil tlástico (154) y los medios de sujeción (151) que acoplan al conjunto del brazo móvil (150) flexible con la sección correspondiente del tapón (140) ; los medios de sujeción (151) permiten acoplar al brazo móvil (150) flexible al tapón (140), estos medios (151) preferentemente forman una relación de machihembrado abisagrado con el extremo libre del arco(150); mobile elastic means (160) for securing the mobile arm (150) with the belt (159), these means are such that they allow the rotation of the flexible mobile arm assembly (150) as shown by the arrow "B" of the Figure 3, in any sense, the connecting element is rigid enough to allowing said rotation but sufficiently elastic to allow the movement of the arm assembly (150) in a movement away from the bottle (100) as illustrated in Figures 2 to 5, said means (160) being of the type of ball coupling and rod and the flexibility provided by elastic ligaments between the arm and said fastening means (160); the flexible movable arm assembly (150) is composed of a first arc (156) between the movable clamping means (160) and an elastic mobile element (154); the elastic mobile element (154) that allows the relative movement between them of the two arcs of the mobile arm (150) has similar characteristics to the means (160) in the sense of allowing the separation of the arches (152) and (156 ), being possible the use of a ball and rod joint or a conventional elastic ligament; a second arc (152) between the plastic mobile element (154) and the clamping means (151) that couple the flexible mobile arm assembly (150) with the corresponding section of the plug (140); the fastening means (151) allow the flexible mobile arm (150) to be attached to the cap (140), these means (151) preferably form a hinged tongue and groove relationship with the free end of the arch

(152) , pero igualmente puede ser utilizada una articulación de bola y vastago convencional o un ligamento elástico entre el arco (152) y el tapón (140) ; el tapón (140) , como se ha descrito previamente con relación a las Figuras 7 y 8, se compone de dos mitades idénticas con una base (144) rodeada por un cinto (146) que hace las veces de abrazadera y por medio de la cual se sujeta el semitapón (140) al medio de sujeción (151) y al brazo móvil (150) flexible, sobre esta base (144) se levanta un cuerpo con forma de semicono truncado (142) hueco, con la base mayor abierta dirigida hacia abajo y formando un solo cuerpo con la base (144), la base menor o domo del cuerpo troncocónico se cierra con una superficie plana o ligeramente concava sobre cuyo borde recto se levanta una lengüeta, (148) que tiene medios de acoplamiento y sujeción (148') y (148") que forman un broche para mantener juntas las dos secciones del tapón (140) .(152), but a conventional ball and rod joint or an elastic ligament between the arch (152) and the plug (140) can also be used; the plug (140), as previously described in relation to Figures 7 and 8, is composed of two identical halves with a base (144) surrounded by a belt (146) that acts as a clamp and by means of which the half-stop (140) is attached to the clamping means (151) and to the flexible mobile arm (150), on this base (144) a body is raised in the shape of a truncated semicone (142) hollow, with the main base open directed downwards and forming a single body with the base (144), the minor base or dome of the truncated conical body is closed with a flat or slightly concave surface on whose edge straight a tongue is raised, (148) having coupling and clamping means (148 ') and (148 ") that form a clasp to hold the two sections of the plug together (140).

Como se ha mencionado, el brazo (150) está articulado en la zona de unión con el cinto (159) para sujetarse al cuerpo (110) del biberón (100), siendo dicha zona ocupada por los medios móviles de sujeción (160) , que permiten al conjunto de brazo dar giros de 360° con respecto a dicho cinto (159), los medios móviles de sujeción (160) también permiten el desplazamiento del brazo móvil (150) flexible para permitir la unión (flechas "A", Figura 2) o separación (flechas "C", Figura 4) de las mitades del tapón (140) . Esto se puede lograr por varias técnicas conocidas en el arte, como por ejemplo una articulación de bola y vastago, donde el vastago sea suficientemente largo para dotar a la articulación de elasticidad suficiente para incrementar el ángulo de apertura del conjunto de brazo móvil (150) flexible sin embargo, en una modalidad preferida de la invención, se dota a la unión entre los medios (160) y el arco (156) de ligamentos elásticos convencionales ("ligas" de hule, por ejemplo) que mantienen a ambos elementos próximos entre si pero que dotan a la unión de la elasticidad suficiente para permitir la deformación en el grado que se ilustra en las Figuras 2 a 5. Esta misma clase de articulación es la modalidad preferida para la unión ente los medios (151) y el arco (152) .As mentioned, the arm (150) is articulated in the area of connection with the belt (159) to be attached to the body (110) of the bottle (100), said area being occupied by the mobile fastening means (160), which allow the arm assembly to rotate 360 ° with respect to said belt (159), the mobile clamping means (160) also allow the movement of the flexible mobile arm (150) to allow the connection (arrows "A", Figure 2) or separation (arrows "C", Figure 4) of the halves of the cap (140). This can be achieved by several techniques known in the art, such as a ball and rod joint, where the rod is long enough to provide the joint with sufficient elasticity to increase the opening angle of the movable arm assembly (150) flexible however in a preferred embodiment of the invention, the connection between the means (160) and the arc (156) is provided with conventional elastic ligaments (rubber "links", for example) that keep both elements close to each other but that endow the union of elasticity sufficient to allow deformation to the extent illustrated in Figures 2 to 5. This same kind of articulation is the preferred embodiment for joining between the means (151) and the arc (152).

Otro punto en que el brazo móvil (150) flexible posee una articulación elástica, corno ya se describió con relación a la Figura 9, es en la zona de acoplamiento de los dos arcos (152) y (156) , designada con el numeral (154) , que en la modalidad preferida de la invención está constituida por ligamentos elásticos convencionales o "ligas" entre ambos arcos, y cuyo efecto es permitir el movimiento de flexión de un arco respecto del otro, como se ilustra en las Figuras 2 a 5.Another point where the flexible mobile arm (150) has an elastic joint, as already described in relation to Figure 9, is in the coupling area of the two arches (152) and (156), designated with the numeral ( 154), which in the preferred embodiment of the invention is constituted by conventional elastic ligaments or "links" between both arcs, and whose effect is to allow the movement of flexion of one arc with respect to the other, as illustrated in Figures 2 to 5 .

Las Figuras 10 y 11 muestran vistas esquemáticas frontal y superior, respectivamente, de un soporte lateral (175) , formado por una superficie (176) cuyo perímetro se ajusta precisamente con el perímetro de una mitad de tapón (140) a fin de sellar su interior y protege.:lo asi del contacto con contaminantes a la vez que se mantiene la tapa (140) cercana al biberón cuando dicho sopóte lateral ocupa la segunda posición de uso, para alimentar al bebé. Para garantizar el sellado, el soporte lateral (175) presenta además una superficie (177) que se proyectará de manera perpendicular a la superficie del cuerpoFigures 10 and 11 show schematic front and top views, respectively, of a lateral support (175), formed by a surface (176) whose perimeter fits precisely with the perimeter of a cap half (140) in order to seal its Inner and protects: this way from contact with contaminants while maintaining the lid (140) near the bottle when said lateral support occupies the second position of use, to feed the baby. To ensure sealing, the support lateral (175) also has a surface (177) that will project perpendicular to the body surface
