A vent valve, and a vent valve assembly, for a liquid dispensing container, employ a vent disc having small open vent holes in cooperation with an overlying thin flexible flap that covers and closes the vent holes to limit liquid pressure on the holes when the container is upright, yet require little suction pressure to move the flap to draw liquid or vent through the holes. The vent valve can be used in a bottom cap that is attachable to the bottom open end of the container. The vent valve assembly includes such a bottom cap, a sealing member for sealing the bottom cap to the container, and a vent valve. The vent valve and / or bottom cap have an elevated vent disc and a top portion having the thin flexible flap.

An infant bottle feeding system includes an infant bottle with a chamber that receives a liquid, heating or cooling elements operable to heat or cool liquid in the chamber and sensors operable to sense parameters of the liquid in the chamber. The system optionally includes an electronic base removably attached to a bottom surface of the infant bottle and operable to deliver power to electronics in the infant bottle. The system optionally includes a thermal cover that fits over the infant bottle and releasably couples to the electronic base to enclose the infant bottle, the thermal cover insulating the infant bottle and inhibiting heat loss of the liquid in the chamber. The electronic base delivers power to the heating elements and sensors in the infant bottle only when the infant bottle is on the electronic base. The infant bottle, thermal cover and electronic base define a single travel pack unit when coupled together.

An artificial nipple is formed of an elastomeric polymer by use of 3D printing after imaging of a mother's breast in an active state of lactation. The artificial nipple used as an attachment to a baby bottle or as the nipple component of a pacifier. Use of an artificial nipple formed in this manner mitigates a problem with nipple confusion, as may otherwise manifest in newborn offspring.

An exemplary apparatus includes a container configured to hold and dispense a liquid, and a reusable label configured for use with the container. The reusable label includes a flexible band section and a flexible label section. The flexible band section has a length greater than a circumference of the container. The flexible label section is removably markable with dry-erase and wet-erase markers, and may include pre-printed identifying indicia. The reusable label may further include a first snap coupled to a first end of the flexible band section, and a plurality of second snaps coupled to a second end of the flexible band section, wherein each of the second snaps is configured to releasably engage the first snap.

A wearable infant bottle holder is provided comprising a neck strap, a base component, and a bottle-securing coupler. The neck strap allows supporting the bottle holder around a user's neck. The base component attaches to the neck strap. The bottle-securing coupler is adjustable to secure a bottle to the upper component while allowing adjustment of the angle of the bottle relative to the base component. The bottle-securing coupler may be removably coupled to the upper component or it may be rotatably coupled to the base component. The bottle-securing coupler may include an upper component and a band. The neck strap may include an adjuster that allows adjusting the length of the strap longer or shorter without removing the strap.

A nipple for use with a bottle assembly includes a base portion that has a bottom surface, a vent region that is coupled to and extends upward from the base portion of the nipple, and a nipple portion that extends upward from the vent region. The nipple portion includes an outlet opening therein, and the vent region includes a vent channel and an air valve substantially aligned with the vent channel.

An infant bottle (10) method and kit, wherein the bottle comprising: a disposable bag (20), for containing a beverage (30, 44, 46); a foldable bag frame (16), for deploying therein the disposable bag (20) at a deployed state of the foldable bag frame (16), wherein a folded state thereof occupies less space than an unfolded state thereof; and a teat (14), for covering the disposable bag (20) in a sealed manner, thereby resulting in a compact infant bottle (10) at a folded state of the foldable bag frame (16), and sealable upon deployment.

The invention relates to a furandicarboxylic acid copolyester and a preparation method thereof. The structural formula of the furandicarboxylic acid copolyester is shown in the following formula (1): wherein, x, y and z are all integers ranging from 10 to 90. Its preparation method includes the following steps: (1) mixing dibasic acid or its esterified product, dibasic alcohol and esterification reaction catalyst, and performing esterification reaction under an inert atmosphere to obtain the first intermediate product; wherein, the dibasic acid includes Furandicarboxylic acid, diols including ethylene glycol, 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol and 2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-1,3-cyclobutanedimethanol; (2) under vacuum Under the condition of vacuum, the first intermediate product is subjected to precondensation reaction to obtain the second intermediate product; (3) under vacuum condition, the second intermediate product is subjected to polycondensation reaction to obtain furandicarboxylic acid copolyester. The preparation method of the present invention is simple, and the obtained furyl dicarboxylic acid copolyester has excellent heat resistance, transparency and mechanical properties at the same time, and can be used to manufacture baby feeding bottles, children's toys, water cups, kitchen supplies, electronic appliances and the like.

A bottle warming apparatus is disclosed that combines heating and agitating of a bottle and its contents in order to achieve even warming, as well as, mixing the contents of the bottle.
