The invention relates to an apparatus for thawing a frozen drink in a glass drinking bottle having a housing; a bottle receiving space that is arranged in the housing and is designed to accommodate a glass drinking bottle with a frozen drink for thawing; a heating device that is arranged in the housing and has radiative heat sources that are arranged around the bottle receiving space in order, during the thawing operation, to radiate heat energy onto the glass drinking bottle, and a thermal insulation and cooling device which is arranged in the housing, the thermal insulation and cooling device having: a thermally insulating space which is formed in the housing between the radiative heat sources and an outer housing wall and so as to encompass, in a circumferential manner, the outer housing wall; and an air cooling system in which an air delivery device draws cooling air from the surroundings into the housing via an air intake and conveys this, in the housing, via an air guide to an air outlet, the air guide being formed so as to encompass at least the thermally insulating space. Also provided is a method for thawing a frozen drink in a glass drinking bottle.

A teething device can include a base having a handle, and a coupling on an opposite end. The base and coupling can be formed from a first material having a first hardness. A reservoir may be configured to contain a liquid therein. The reservoir may be coupled and sealed to the base coupling and configured to provide a watertight seal. The reservoir can have at least one self-sealing aperture. The self-sealing aperture can have a default position wherein the self-sealing aperture is configured to be substantially closed to essentially prevent the liquid from flowing therethrough, and a flexed position wherein the self-sealing aperture is configured to be opened to allow the liquid to flow therethrough. In addition, the reservoir can be formed from a second material having a second hardness that is softer than the first hardness, such that the reservoir is configured to be used as a teething device.

A tube received, at least in part, by a breastmilk warmer includes a first segment having a first thermal conductivity, a second segment having a second thermal conductivity different from the first thermal conductivity, and a third segment having a third thermal conductivity different from at least one of the first and second thermal conductivities. The first segment is configured to be coupled to a source of fluid. The second segment is fluidly coupled to the first segment and disposed in a labyrinthine manner within a breastmilk warmer. The third segment is fluidly coupled to the second segment and is configured to be coupled to a feeding apparatus. The tube also includes a fluid lumen extending from the first segment through the second segment and to the third segment. The fluid O lumen has a uniform diameter from the first segment to the third segment.

Provided are a smart bottle and a method for controlling the smart bottle. A smart bottle comprises a bottle for containing liquid; a base formed to be combined to one side of the bottle; a first sensor installed in the bottle or the base, and configured to obtain level information of liquid contained in the bottle; a third sensor configured to obtain inclination information of the bottle; a heater configured to heat the liquid contained in the bottle; a controller configured to control operation of the heater based on the temperature information, determine a feeding start and a feeding end based on the inclination information, and modify the level information based on the inclination information; a communication unit configured to transmit the inclination information and the level information to an external device; and a battery configured to supply power to the first sensor and the base.
