Definitions
- Patent Application No. 29/162,124 filed June 10, 2002 and U. S. Utility Patent Application No. 10/217,685, filed August 13, 2002.
- the present invention relates to the field of baby bottle constructions in general, and more particularly to an ergonomically designed baby bottle.
- the prior art constructions may be adequate for the basic purpose and function for which they have been specifically designed, they are uniformly deficient with respect to their failure to provide a simple, efficient, and practical premature infant feeding bottle.
- the prior art fails to disclose a bottle sized and constructed to (1) allow a care giver to hold the infant and bottle in the same hand during the feeding process, (2) enhance a caregiver's grasp of the bottle and comfort while gripping the bottle, (3) increase control during the feeding process, and (4) simplify the feeding process.
- the present invention recognizes and addresses disadvantages of prior art constructions and methods, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an improved baby bottle.
- a baby formula bottle including an upper and lower circular shaped cylindrical body portion having a first radius, and a central elliptical shaped cylindrical body portion intermediate the circular shaped cylindrical upper and lower body portions, where the center portion has a minor axis and a major axis radius that are each smaller than the first radius.
- the bottle also includes a cylindrical top portion located proximate the upper body portion and that is adapted to receive a removable closure.
- the cylindrical top portion further includes a first helical thread formed on its outer circumference, a top rim surface, and an annular flange on the outer circumference and axially located below the first helical thread.
- a plurality of frangible breakaway tongues may removably attach an anti-tamper ring to the bottom rim of the closure.
- the ring also has radially inwardly extending ridges for engaging a bottom surface of the annular flange, whereby the ring removably secures the closure to the cylindrical top portion.
- the closure includes an annular cap and an annular end wall defining an aperture therein.
- a nipple having a radially extending annular flange with a maximum outer radius substantially equal to the inner radius of the annular cap is press fit into the under side of the annular cap.
- a second helical thread formed on the inner circumference of the annular cap receives the first thread for removably securing the annular cap to the cylindrical top portion. Compressing the outer edge portion of the nipple flange between the bottom surface of the annular end wall and the top rim portion forms a liquid-tight seal as the closure is screwed onto the cylindrical top portion.

- Figure 4 is a right side cross-sectional view along line 4 — 4 of the baby bottle shown in Figure 5, the left side cross-sectional view being a mirror image of the right side;
- Figure 5 is a right side elevational view of the baby bottle shown in Figure 1 , the left side elevational view being a mirror image of the right side;
- Figure 6 is a top plan view of the baby bottle illustrated in
- Figure 7 is a bottom view of the baby bottle illustrated in
- Figure 8 is a perspective view of a caregiver illustrating the feeding of an infant while holding the bottle of Figure 1 in the same hand as the infant; and [00018] Figure 9 is a cross-sectional view of the bottle in Figure 2 looking down the central body portion.
- Bottle 10 includes a cylindrical top portion designated generally by the numeral 12, a body portion designated generally by the numeral 14, and a closure designated generally by the numeral 16.
- Cylindrical top portion 12 and body 14 may be integrally molded of a suitable plastic material, which may be blow molded, by extrusion or injection, so that it is a unitary member of uniform wall thickness.
- a suitable transparent plastic for forming the bottle includes, but is not limited to, polystyrene, polystyrene-acrylonitile, acrylonitile-butadiene-styrene, styrene-maleicanhydride, polycarbonate, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinylcyclohexane, and blends thereof. [00021] Referring to Figures 1 to 5, threaded cylindrical top portion
- a helical thread 32 is integrally formed on outer circumference 22 of cylindrical portion 18 for removably securing closure 16 to cylindrical top portion 12. Helical thread 32 begins at a point where mouth 24 connects to cylindrical portion 18 and terminates proximate a flange 34.
- closure 16 includes an annular cap 36 having a helical thread (not shown) on its inner circumference for removably securing cap 36 to the externally threaded cylindrical top portion 12.
- Outer circumference 40 of annular cap 36 may contain ribs or knurling 38. Ribs 38 allow the caregiver to more easily grip closure 16 to remove it from or fit it on top portion 12.
- cap 36 includes an annular end wall 42 having an interior peripheral rim 44 dimensioned to fit into a groove (not shown) in a nipple 46. Nipple 46 and annular cap 36 can thus be press fit together to form closure 16.
- Nipple 46 has a nearly flat or very shallowly curved surface
- Nipple 46 widens out to a frustoconical section 52 located intermediate an annular flange 54 and mouthpiece 50.
- Annular flange 54 is dimensioned to seat on rim 26 of mouth 24, and it defines a central aperture, which is in fluid communication with aperture 28 and chamber 30. The aperture defined by annular flange 54 allows fluid to flow from body 14 into and through nipple 46.
- a soft pliable material such as conventional or silicone rubber may be used to form nipple 46.
- Nipple 46 is press fit into annular cap 36 so that peripheral rim 44 engages the external annular groove in nipple 46.
- mouthpiece 50 and frustoconical portion 52 extend upward through annular cap 36 so that annular flange 54 engages a rearward surface of annular end wall 42.
- annular flange 54 engages a rearward surface of annular end wall 42.
- an outer most edge portion of annular flange 54 is in abutting contact with the inner circumference of annular cap 36.
- threadably securing closure 16 onto threaded cylindrical portion 12 causes the rearward surface of annular end wall 42 to compress annular flange 54 against rim 26 to form a liquid-tight seal.
- a releasable seal attached to rim 26 over mouth 24 allows for vacuum packaging of the infant formula in bottle 10.
- One skilled in the art of baby formula or food packaging will be familiar with such releasably attached seals for vacuum packaging. Specifically, adhesive or heat attaches a seal formed of polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, or other suitable material to mouth 24 to form an airtight seal. Therefore, removal of closure 16 will not disturb the vacuum seal unless the seal is cut or removed.
- Formula may be prepackaged in bottle 10 with liquid or powdered infant formula, in particular, formula for premature babies. The packaged infant formula would be pre-measured and vacuum sealed to prevent spoilage. If bottle 10 is packaged with powdered formula, the user would add the specified amount of water as a diluter. Bottle 10 may also contain infant or toddler formula depending on the intended target market, and it may be sold individually or in a multiple bottle pack.
- bottle 10 and enclosure 16 may also include an anti-tamper ring 56.
- Anti-tamper ring 56 connects to a lower edge 58 of annular cap 36 by a plurality of relatively thin and frangible breakaway tongues or webs 60.
- radially inwardly projecting and angularly extending ridges are formed on an inner circumference of ring 56 which engage an under surface 61 of radially outwardly projecting flange 34.
- body 14 comprises a generally cylindrical upper portion 62, a generally cylindrical lower portion 64, and a tubular body midsection 66 having a substantially elliptical cross-section as shown in Figure 9.
- the body is a tubular member that defines chamber 30 and has a central longitudinal axis 67.
- Upper body portion 62 is located intermediate threaded cylindrical top portion 12 and body midsection 66, and it is in fluid communication with aperture 28 and chamber 30.
- Upper body portion 62 is tubular in shape and connects to top portion 12 by an inwardly sloping shoulder 68 and to central portion 66 by an outwardly sloping shoulder 70.
- a length of, for example, approximately A inch and a radius R2 define cylindrical upper portion 62.
- Radius R2 is larger than radius R1 and may vary depending on the application of the bottle.
- the length of upper portion 62 may be larger or smaller depending on the volume of liquid held by bottle 10.
- Lower body portion 64 connects to body midsection 66 and defines a chamber 72, which is in fluid communication with chamber 30.
- Lower portion 64 has an axial length of, for example, approximately ! inch and a radius R5.
- lower body portion 64 terminates in a circular base 76.
- Circular base 76 may be flat, or it may have a concave center portion allowing bottle 10 to stand upright.
- Lower portion 64 connects to body midsection 66 by an inwardly sloping shoulder 74.
- the length of lower portion 64 may be larger or smaller, but radius R5 is substantially equal to upper body portion radius R2.
- midsection 66 is constructed and sized to be held within the crook between fingers, such as the index and middle finger, of a person holding bottle 10 when feeding an infant 75.
- body midsection 66 is elliptical in shape ( Figure 9) and has a major axis radius of R3 and a minor axis radius of R4.
- the axial length of midsection 66 is approximately 2!4 inches and may vary depending on the volume of liquid to be carried in bottle 10.
- Major axis radius R3 is substantially equal to threaded top portion radius R1 , but it is smaller than upper body portion radius R2 and lower body portion radius R5.
- Minor axis radius R4 is substantially smaller than radii R1 , R2, R3, and R5.
- An elliptical shaped midsection is advantageous over a circular shaped midsection. First, it ensures that midsection 66 is sufficiently narrow enabling a caregiver to comfortably hold bottle 10. Furthermore, an elliptical cylindrical midsection holds a larger quantity of formula than a bottle having a circular cylindrical midsection having a radius substantially equal to the minor axis radius R4. In addition, an elliptical shaped midsection provides a larger area for labeling the bottle.
- front surface 77 of body midsection 66 may be provided with indicia 78, wherein indicia 78 register the fluid content of bottle 10 in an upright position.
- a second set of indicia 80 may be included on the front surface of body midsection 66.
- Indicia 80 register the remaining fluid content in the inverted feeding position so that these visual indicia will be readily available to the caregiver during feedings.
- One of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the range of measurements differ between the upright and inverted positions due to the volume of liquid held in threaded cylindrical top portion 12.
- bottle 10 does not include nipple
- annular cap 38 press fit into annular cap 38 as described above.
- a substantially flat circular disc (not shown) located proximate the under surface of annular end wall 42 forms a liquid-tight seal when closure 16 is removably secured to threaded cylindrical portion 12.
- the disc should have an outer radius substantially equal to an inner radius of annular cap 38. Therefore, as the caregiver tightens annular cap 38 on cylindrical portion 12, rim 26 and the bottom surface of annular end wall 44 compress the disc to establish the liquid-tight seal.
- the disc may comprise aluminum annular shaped material bonded to a compressible annular shaped material formed, for example, from conventional rubber, silicone rubber, or other suitable compositions. In this embodiment, use of the compressible disc eliminates the need for a separate removable vacuum seal. However, for safety concerns, bottle 10 can be packaged using an independent safety seal and anti-tampering ring in addition to the compressible disc.
