An infant feeding bottle assembly includes a container and a top assembly including a collar coupled to the container at a top portion of the container, a nipple, and a nipple protector. The collar further includes a holding portion. The nipple protector is coupled to the collar and is capable of transitioning between an open state and a closed state. In the closed state, the nipple protector covers and protects the nipple. In the open state, the nipple protector retracts into or rests on the holding portion and exposes the nipple.

There is disclosed a drinking receptacle comprising: a container for containing a fluid for drinking; and an outlet member having an outlet through which the fluid is delivered under a pressure supplied by a user of the receptacle and a collar portion that attaches to an opening of the container such that an undersurface of the collar portion abuts with an upper surface of the opening of the container to form a substantially sealed engagement between the outlet member and the container; wherein either the undersurface of the collar portion or the upper surface of the opening of the container has at least one vent formed therein, the at least one vent being configured such that when said pressure is applied to the outlet member the at least one vent member permits the controlled ingress of air into the container to facilitate flow of fluid from the outlet, and when said pressure is removed the at least one vent member substantially prevents the ingress of air into the container to facilitate a controlled vacuum pressure within the container.

A removable container for powder or liquid includes a housing, a spilling mechanism and a bypass element. The housing hangs within a bottle and is capable of storing powder within the bottle while being sealed from a precursor liquid held within the bottle. The spilling mechanism enables the powder to spill out of the housing and into the precursor liquid and the bypass element provides the precursor liquid out of the bottle without mixing with the stored powder.

Aid (1) for cup feeding of infants, which aid has a first liquid chamber and a second liquid chamber, wherein the first liquid chamber is provided for mounting on a feeding bottle (2), wherein the first liquid chamber (9) and the second liquid chamber (10) have a shared wall (12), wherein the second liquid chamber is open so that liquid in the second liquid chamber is accessible to an infant, whereby at least the shared wall is manufactured from an elastic material and is provided with an incision (13) with a minimum length of 3 mm such that a liquid flow through the incision from the first liquid chamber to the second liquid chamber is controllable by manipulating the wall.

The proposed formula-mixing bottle relates to baby feeding vessels. It includes a first container with a bottom, a second container with a bottom, and a cap. The second container's bottom is formed by a closure member in the form of a raisable disk of a disk valve. The closure member has a screw shaft disposed on one side thereof, and the inside surface of the second container has a seal disposed thereon forming a seat for the disk of the closure member. The screw shaft is provided with a guide groove and is disposed inside a retaining sleeve having an arrester mounted in the opening thereof such as to be capable of interacting with the guide groove, and of restricting rotation of the screw shaft. The proposed bottle has a simplified structure as a result of the use of elements having less complex shapes.

A breast feeding assembly includes a reservoir that is fillable with a nourishing fluid. A nipple is removably attachable to the reservoir to be suckled by an infant thereby facilitating the infant to consume the nourishing fluid. A pouch is wearable on a user's chest and the reservoir is removably positionable in the pouch. The pouch has a nipple opening therein and the nipple extends outwardly through the nipple opening when the reservoir is positioned in the pouch. A first belt is coupled to the pouch and the first belt is extendable around the user's chest for retaining the pouch on the user's chest. A second belt is coupled to the pouch, the second belt is extendable around the user's chest for retaining the pouch on the user's chest and the second belt is matable to the first belt.

A disposable receptacle useful with an infant feeding system, including a pliable pouch. The pliable pouch may have a single compartment, or a pair of compartments wherein a first compartment is filled with powdered formula, and a second compartment is filled with distilled water. When compartmentalized, the compartments are separated by a burst seal designed to fail upon subjection to pressure of between about 1-3 lbs. The receptacles include a cylindrical fitment with a one-way valve removably positioned therewithin. A top seal of the pliable pouch is secured about the body of the fitment. The receptacles may be used with an infant feeding system having a support disc with an aperture to receive and secure the fitment, and a nipple having an internal chamber sized and configured to tightly and removably receive a portion of the fitment. The infant feeding system may optionally include a bottle and a securing ring.
