Abstract: A leakproof cover for combined pouring and venting container closure is disclosed which comprises a cap having an outer surface and an inner surface, a first arm having an aperture, a latch, a projection, a stop member extending downwardly from the inner surface, and a second arm extending downwardly from the inner surface with the second arm having an aperture, a closure device having a threaded rim, a vent, a spout; a pair of arms each having an aperture therein, a first pin for insertion through the apertures in the pair of arms and the aperture in the first arm of the cap for connecting the cap to the closure device, a spout seal device having a pair of arms each having an aperture, an upper member having a pair of depending legs with the upper member and the legs for covering the spout, the upper member having a rubber insert that provides a seal between the spout and the spout seal device to prevent any liquid from leaking out of the spout, and a second pin for insertion through the apertures in the pai

Abstract: A nursing bottle (1) formed of a large volume container, incorporating a vent tube (3) that extends inwardly of the container, having a vent port (4) arranged approximately at the volumetric midpoint (12) of the container, so as to allow for venting of pressure, whether of excessive or vacuum, to the atmosphere, at all times. The volumetric capacity of the nursing bottle container may be formed of a spherical shape (1), hemispherical shape (40), cylindrical shape (18), or to other configurations that provide for the internal volumetric capacity so that any formula placed therein will be prevented from blocking the vent port (4), the vent tube (3), regardless of the angular disposition undertaken by the nursing bottle during usage.

Abstract: A nursing bottle formed of a large volume container, incorporating a vent tube that extends to vent pressure at all times. The nursing bottle may have a cylindrical shape or other configuration that prevents formula placed therein from blocking the vent tube regardless of its angular disposition. The vent tube extends distally from the vent insert, operatively associated with a collar, that holds the vent structures and the nipple to the wide rimmed opening. In addition, the vent tube has a conical shape of decreasing diameter distally toward the center of the bottom to dissipate the pressure that may cause leakage from the bottle. Further, the vent insert has a major and minor seal that prevents leaks out of the collar and onto an infant.

Abstract: A nursing bottle formed of a container, incorporates a reservoir and venting tube that eliminates vacuum. The nursing bottle has a cylindrical shape or other configuration that prevents formula therein from blocking the venting tube when held at any angle. The venting tube extends distally from the insert and alternatively may be in separate pieces. The insert has a flange on its perimeter, extending inferiorly and securing the insert to the superior and lateral aspects of the neck of the container. The vent opens at the volumetric center of the reservoir above the conically shaped venting tube depending from the reservoir, where the venting tube has a conical shape of decreasing diameter.

Abstract: A nursing bottle formed of a small volume container, incorporating a venting tube that extends to dissipate pressure at all times. The nursing bottle may have a cylindrical shape or other configuration that prevents formula placed therein from blocking the venting tube when held at any angle. The venting tube extends distally from the insert portion, operatively associated with a collar that holds the vent structures and the nipple to the neck of the container. The vent opens at the volumetric center of the reservoir above the venting tube. Alternatively, the venting tube has a conical shape of decreasing diameter distally toward the center of the bottom to dissipate the pressure that may cause leakage from the bottle.

Abstract: A container having an open top and being adapted to be filled with liquid, wherein a vacuum is prevented from being formed within the container when inverted comprising a receptacle adapted to contain a quantity of liquid, a vent unit adapted to fit within the receptacle comprising a reservoir tube having an upper and lower portion, the reservoir tube having a proximal first end adjacent the top of the container and an open second end projecting sufficiently downwardly in the container, wherein the vent unit has an airway between the outside of the container and a point in the reservoir tube, a reservoir tube having a distal end having an opening, the vent tube projecting downwardly into the upper portion of the vent tube, and an airway extending from outside the container through the vent tube into the vent unit so that when the container is filled with liquid and inverted, the open end of the reservoir tube is above the liquid level in the container and the opening in the vent tube is above the liquid level
