Implementations of the present disclosure describe a pacifier device having a base portion, a nipple portion, and an attachment portion. The nipple portion is coupled to and protruding from the base portion in a first direction. The attachment portion is coupled to and protruding from the base portion in a second direction that is generally opposite to the first direction. The attachment portion is configured to rotate with the pacifier device to aid in connecting the pacifier device to a hub. The attachment portion may be inserted into a slot on an outer surface of a body to form a pacifier system.

20220241157 · 2022-08-04 ·

A dual-sided pacifying gum and teeth cleaning device. The pacifying cleaning device is comprised of a U-shaped cleansing portion proceeding in a circular manner between the base of a nipple and a raised lip displacer. The cleansing portion has a pair of walls with sets of bristles, such that the respective sets of bristles generally face each other. As an infant sucks on the pacifying device, the position of the bristles and sucking action result in frictional contact against both the front and back of the infant's teeth, providing improved overall cleaning of teeth and gums.

A pacifier ball comprising a hollow sphere comprising a pair of identical hemispherical members having circular hemispherical rims separably joined together to form the hollow sphere. A first pair of hollow pliable nipples being mounted on and projecting radially outward, from one of the hemispherical members. The nipples of the first pair of hollow pliable nipples having centerlines projecting through the center of said sphere and defining therewith a first common plane. A second pair of hollow pliable nipples being mounted on and projecting radially outward from the other hemispherical member. The nipples of the second pair of hollow pliable nipples having centerlines projecting through the center of said sphere and defining therewith a second common plane. The centerlines of the nipples of each pair of hollow pliable nipples creating an angle of separation between the nipples and equal angles of projection for each of the nipples such that each of the nipples is equally spaced from its respective hemispherical rim. The first and second common planes being perpendicular to each other, and therefore each pair of hollow pliable nibbles are oriented perpendicular to each other on their respective hemispherical member. The size, weight, number and placement of the nipples facilitate the ease of use of the pacifier ball by an infant. The pacifier ball can also be taken apart for cleaning.

FLEXIBLE PACIFIER

The present invention is directed to a pacifier. The pacifier of the invention includes a baglet and a shield. The baglet has a tip, a shaft and base. The tip has a length and width that is greater than the length and width of the shaft. The base is adapted to connect the baglet to the shield and has creases configured to permit the baglet to move toward and away from the shield and rotate about a center point of the base.

PACIFIER TO TRAIN PROPER TONGUE POSITION
20210100723 · 2021-04-08 ·

A pacifier for an individual, the pacifier including a shield, a handle extending from a first side of the shield, and a nipple extending from a second side of the shield. The handle defines a longitudinal axis and the nipple is inclined downwardly with respect to the longitudinal axis. A shelf connects the nipple to the shield. In different configurations the shelf includes varying widths and in other configurations the shelf width is different than a width of the nipple. A core extends from the handle, through the shield and into the nipple.

Orthotropic and Orthodontic Oral Device and Method
20210121371 · 2021-04-29 ·

A hygienic oral pacification device includes a fluid-filled bladder. The bladder includes a nipple and alveolar ridge-mating flanges. The bladder is dynamically shaped and allows for pressures provided by the suckling child to re-shaping the bladder and flanges. A bite-block extends into the bladder to maintain a fluid path from nipple to flanges. As the child completes the suckling cycle, the bladder nipple is depressed and fluid is forced in the engorging flanges. The flanges thus cover the alveolar ridges and fill the vestibules. Hard pads set along a superior surface of the nipple are compressed against the maxilla palate and provide lateral force to encourage expansion of the palate. The nipple may be bifurcated into left and right opposing lobes which can split laterally to enhance lateral force on maxilla.

Artificial Teat

The present invention resides in the soothing of infants, particularly soothing from persistent crying in distressed but healthy infants using an artificial teat having a neck and a head, wherein the head is solid. The teat has particular use for the normalisation of cranial rhythmic impulses in such infants.

PACIFIER FOR INFANTS
20210000696 · 2021-01-07 ·

The present invention relates to a pacifier for infants used to comfort infants. More specifically, a silicone tube body (10), into which or from which air can be injected or discharged such that an infant feels the silicone tube body like a breast of the infant's mother when touching the silicone tube body, is coupled for use to a nipple-shaped nipple unit (50) by a secure coupling unit (30), and thus, due to the infant's touching of the silicone tube body, not only emotional security as if the infant were in the bosom of the infant's mother can be provided but also the development of the infant's brain can be beneficially stimulated, in comparison with traditional plastic pacifiers. Particularly, the nipple unit is not only simply coupled but also hermetically coupled by the secure coupling unit to a coupling ring formed at the front of the silicone tube body, and the silicone tube body has a valve through which air is smoothly injected or discharged, and thus the product not only can be assembled and taken apart for use but also provides great confidence and convenience of using air injection. In addition, when air is injected into the silicone tube body, the tube body is inflated not upward but downward so as to be prevented from blocking out the forward field of view of the infant sucking on the pacifier, and thus psychological security is more greatly provided for the infant.
