Description

Feeders and Feeding Devices

technical field

The present invention relates to feeders and feeding devices.

Background technique

Feeders developed for infants or people who are inconvenient to eat small pieces of fruit, such as pears, apples, etc., or vegetables, jelly, yogurt, and minced meat, have become an important tool for infants to actively eat. The structure and beneficial effects of the feeder are described in detail in the invention patent application document of PCT patent application number PCT/CN2010/070745. Simultaneously, in order to make the adult who is inconvenient to eat also able to use this tool, it is necessary to expand the capacity of the food container of the feeder (such as the food bag made of silica gel). However, there is a situation that the food at the rear end of the pouch is inconvenient to be bitten into the mouth by the user during use. In the Chinese invention patent application with the unpublished application number 201310175125.3 filed by the inventor of the present invention, a technical scheme of using a ring-shaped foldable part on the pouch is proposed, so that the foldable part has a pump-like effect to transport food from the back end of the pouch Push towards the front of the pouch. This solution can basically solve the function that the rear end food is bitten into the user's mouth. The inventor, through painstaking research, believes that the technical solution has room for improvement, so as to more conveniently satisfy users to use the tool and achieve better technical effects.

At the same time, in the technical scheme of the existing feeder, since the rear end (open end) of the pouch is sealed by the connecting part during normal use, and the front end (closed end) may block the opening on the pouch due to food, this When biting the pouch with the mouth and biting out part of the food, the air pressure inside the pouch decreases, making it difficult for the pouch to automatically return to its original shape, affecting the user to continue biting out the food in the pouch.
