Definitions

  • the invention relates to a teat of an elastic material.
  • Teats serve the nutrition of infants and toddlers.
  • Known teat cups have a hollow teat nipple and a circumferential fastening edge for fixing a bottle opening of a drinking bottle. Since the attachment edge has a larger cross section than the nipple, between the nipple and the attachment edge is a hollow, basically from the nipple to the mounting edge expanding transition region available.
  • the nipple has a drinking hole in the end, through which liquid can escape. In the transition area there is a ventilation valve with a valve slot.
  • the teat is fixed by means of a screw ring at the mouth edge of the bottle.
  • the teat is inserted through the threaded ring until the mounting edge sits below an annular flange of the threaded ring.
  • the screw ring is screwed to an external thread of the drinking bottle, wherein the fastening edge between the opening edge of the bottle opening and screw ring is clamped.
  • the child can remove the liquid or other flowable food filled into the drinking bottle by sucking on the nipple.
  • the food exits through the drinking hole and it takes place via the vent valve, a pressure equalization with the environment instead.
  • the known teat have the disadvantage that they allow only a small flow of food to be administered. If the drinking hole is made too large, the liquid can flow freely without the child performing suction work. As a result, the child is not trained in food intake and it may come to spilling food. The food intake is further limited by the vent valve, which limits the pressure equalization.
  • the US 2,989,961 describes a teat of an elastic material with a hollow nipple, a circumferential mounting edge for fixing to the bottle opening of a bottle, a hollow transition region between mounting edge and nipple, at least one directed in the longitudinal direction of the nipple, extending from the outside to the inside of the nipple drinking slot in an outwardly curved outer end portion of the nipple nipple and at least one vent valve with a valve slot.
  • the vent valve consists of a tube made of an elastic material such as rubber, which is provided with a longitudinal valve slot is located centrally on the tube.
  • the tapered ends of the tube serve as air inlets.
  • the vent valve is disposed across the teat from one side to the other side above the base in the neck which engages the mounting ring.
  • the ends of the valve are arranged in an annular, tapered receptacle below a shoulder.
  • the teat is intended for use by babies. He can not bring a toddler to drink from a cup. When drinking, the liquid is at the slot of the valve, whereby the required negative pressure is increased, which must be applied to open the valve. In contrast, when drinking from a cup, no negative pressure at all must be generated. In addition, an elevated negative pressure can set in the bottle, which causes the teat collapses.
  • the EP 0 151 862 A2 describes a drinking cap with a spout of oval cross section, which is arranged eccentrically with respect to a fastening edge.
  • the attachment edge can be pressed onto a shoulder of the screw ring, so that it consists of a rigid material.
  • the material of the drinking attachment exclusively called polypropylene.
  • the drinking attachment has small openings at the end of the spout and is not provided with a vent valve. As a result, food may leak from the drinking cap when the drinking container with the drinking cap mounted thereon falls over.
  • the lack of ventilation requires that the child is Drink must settle so that air can flow into the container through the holes at the end of the outlet.
  • an outlet protected drinking cup is known in which the teat has a recess with parallel drinking slots. As the user bites on the outer walls of the nipple, their insides press against the bottom of the recess, thereby opening the drinking slots located in the bottom of the recess.
  • This leak-proof drinking cup is not suitable for infants and young children because they are unable to open the drinking slots by clenching the teat. In addition, this drinking cup does not support the natural sucking work of the infant or toddler.
  • the drinking cap has on the top of the lid on a valve, which can be present when drinking liquid, whereby the suction vacuum required for opening is increased.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a teat, which prevents the spillage of food, facilitates food intake and brings the child to drink from a cup.
  • the teat according to the invention is through the drinking slot in the nipple an increased flow of food to be administered guaranteed. This is the case even with a single drinking slot which is suitably sized, since it allows a higher throughput than a drinking hole. Since the drinking slit is present in an outwardly curved end portion of the nipple, the removal of food requires the performance of suction work. Unlike in the prior art, food intake does not require the nipple to clench. Adequate pressure equalization is also possible through a suitably sized valve slot.
  • the nipple on at least two parallel drinking slots at least two parallel drinking slots.
  • the parallel drinking slits ensure a particularly high penetration of the food to be administered when the child sucks on the nipple.
  • the at least one drinking slit is rectilinear and / or wave-shaped and / or jagged.
  • Straight-line drinking slits are particularly easy to produce by mechanically slitting the teat.
  • Wavy or serrated drinking slits favor a particularly high penetration of the food to be administered, since they can be carried out in a small space with a particularly large effective length.
  • Embodiments in which the drinking slit is rectilinear or wavy or jagged in at least one subarea and has another of the aforementioned shapes or another shape in at least one further subarea are also included in the invention.
  • the invention relates to embodiments in which the nipple nipple is arranged centrally with respect to the fastening edge.
  • the nipple nipple is arranged eccentrically with respect to the fastening edge. This promotes a complete removal of food from the bottle when it is rotated so that the nipple is located below. This design is ergonomically particularly advantageous.
  • the nipple nipple has a cross-section that tapers towards the outer end. This facilitates in particular the production and is ergonomically particularly advantageous.
  • This also applies to a further embodiment, according to which the nipple has an oval cross-section.
  • this applies to a configuration in which the one side of the nipple nipple that is closest to the fastening edge has a smaller inclination to the nipple axis than the side of the nipple that is farthest from the fastening edge.
  • a rounding to the transition region out for reasons of ease of manufacture and ergonomics.
  • the rounding and optionally the adjacent transition area on the inside carries a rib.
  • the transition region is dome-shaped. This is also advantageous for reasons of ease of manufacture and ergonomics.
  • a circumferential constriction exists between the fastening edge and the transition region.
  • At least two ventilation valves for a good pressure equalization are available.
  • the ventilation valve is present in a dent of the transition region.
  • an unintentional escape of food through the valve slot is counteracted.
  • the undisturbed working of the ventilation valve is favored by the sheltered accommodation of the ventilation valve, in the indentation.
  • the indentation is present in the outer edge of the dome-shaped transition region.
  • the vent valve is arranged diametrically opposite the nipple in the outer edge of the transition region. This ensures that the ventilation valve is not wetted at the bottom of the nipple arrangement with food, so that unimpeded pressure equalization is possible.
  • the fastening edge has a fastening flange.
  • the sealing attachment of the fastening edge favored between screw ring and opening edge of the bottle.
  • the mounting flange on the inner edge on a circumferential bead prevents in conjunction with a suitable screw ring the unwanted pulling out of the teat from the screw ring.
  • Possible embodiment of the teat with a bead or other thickening and a matching screw ring are in the DE 197 39 911 C5 described, the disclosure of which is included in the present application in this respect.

  • the drinking and valve slots are preferably introduced by mechanical slitting.
  • the teat 1 has a hollow nipple 2, which is connected via a hollow transition region 3 with a mounting edge 4 for fixing to the opening portion of a bottle.
  • the nipple nipple 2 has an oval, tapering towards its outer end portion 5 towards cross section (see Fig. 3 ).
  • the side 6 of the nipple nipple 2 which is closest to the fastening edge 4 has a smaller inclination to the nipple axis than the opposite side 7 of the nipple nipple 2, which is farther from the fastening edge 4.
  • the side 7 of the nipple 2 runs in a concave curve 8 to the transition region 3 out.
  • the outer end portion 5 of the nipple nipple 2 is curved outward, d. H. is dome-shaped.
  • the slots 9, 10 extend from the outer wall 11 to the inner wall 12 of the nipple. 2
