Benefits of technology

This patent describes a collapsible bottle that can be used as a reservoir or a regular water or juice bottle. The main goal is to make it easy to switch between uses.

Problems solved by technology

In either case, the size of the bottle can be a real space challenge.
Again, space for these supplies is an issue.
Although assumably effective for their intended purposes, the existing devices do not provide a collapsible bottle apparatus that may be selectively adapted to connect to a collapsible bottle reservoir or to a conventional water or juice bottle.

Embodiment Construction

[0032]A collapsible bottle apparatus according to the present invention will now be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5d of the accompanying drawings. The collapsible bottle apparatus 10 includes a body member 20 having a primary thread adapter 30, a retaining ring 40, a primary dispensing member 60, an auxiliary thread adapter 70, an auxiliary dispensing member 66, a cap 50, and a base 28.

[0033]The body member 20 includes a reservoir 22 that is constructed of a flexible material, such as a thermoplastic elastomer (“TPE”), also known as thermoplastic rubber. Preferably, the TPE material is transparent or translucent so that a user can observe a level of liquid contained therein. The reservoir 22 includes a continuous side wall 24 having a generally cylindrical configuration and defining an interior area. The reservoir 22 is sealed and configured so as to contain a liquid in the interior area thereof, such as baby formula, although the reservoir 22 may include an open top for re...

Abstract

A collapsible bottle apparatus includes a body member having a flexible liquid reservoir, a base, and a primary thread adapter. The primary thread adapter defines an open interior space in communication with the reservoir. The body member is movable between an extended configuration and a collapsed configuration in which the reservoir is disposed in the interior space of the primary thread adapter. A retaining ring includes a top wall defining an aperture and a continuous side wall selectively coupled to the primary thread adapter. A primary dispensing member is selectively coupled to the retaining ring and includes a nipple extending upwardly through the aperture when the primary mounting section is coupled to the retaining ring. An auxiliary thread adapter enables an auxiliary dispensing member that includes a spout to be selectively coupled to either a water bottle or juice bottle having different neck diameters.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates generally to bottles for feeding infants and containers that dispense drinks to toddlers. More particularly, this invention relates to a bottle apparatus having a reservoir that is collapsible for storage or transport and that is adaptable to connect to a conventional water or juice bottle for use by a toddler or young child.[0002]When traveling or attending an event with a baby, a mother or other caregiver must often prepare multiple bottles and pack other supplies in a bag. However, if the plan is only to be gone for a short time, one or more bottles may be packed in a purse. In either case, the size of the bottle can be a real space challenge. In addition, a care giver having an older child may also need to pack a “sippy cup” having a spout that is more appropriate for a toddler. Again, space for these supplies is an issue. Then, water or juice must be poured into the sippy cup and the lid replaced before the cup is ready fo...
