Abstract: A cap (12) for a beverage bottle (14) includes a passage (22) through which beverage in the bottle may flow from the bottle. A first portion (24) surrounds the passage (22) and is engageable with the lips of a child adapted to consume the beverage that flows through the passage. A second portion (34) clamping engages the beverage bottle (14) to hold the cap (12) on the bottle. The cap (12) is made of an elastic material and the second portion (34) stretches to clamping engage the bottle (14). At least one manually engageable pull tab (40, 42) is for pulling the second portion (34) onto the bottle (14) while the second portion stretches.

Abstract: A portable infant cushion (10) includes a base (12) having a top surface (14) for engaging the body of an infant placed onto the top surface and for transferring the weight of the infant. The top surface (14) includes a head support portion (20) non-releasably attached to the base (12) and having a head engaging surface elevated relative to the base for supporting the head of the infant. The top surface (14) includes a body support portion (18) connected to the base (12) which is longitudinally spaced from the head support (20) and is for supporting the body of an infant. A side wall (24) extends peripherally around the base (12) and having an elevated surface elevated higher than the head support (20). The cushion (10) includes a blanket (32) for covering the infant adapted to be placed on the top surface (14). The blanket (32) has at least a portion secured to the side wall (24). The blanket (32) is extensible over the top surface (14) without extending over the head support portion (20).

Abstract: A gravity cup for drinking fluids, comprising a container defined by sides connected to a base on one end and forming an opening at the other end through which fluid is placed and contained therein, the container having an outlet located at the base such that gravity forces the fluid through the outlet; a valve being ball-shaped and having a passage therethrough in rotationally attached to the container such that rotating the valve regulates the flow of fluid out of the container through the outlet; the valve being operable from fully opened, through partially opened, through fully closed; position an adjustable tube straw connected at its proximal end to the valve such that fluid flowing through the valve flows through the adjustable tube straw to a user for drinking at its distal end, and such that manipulating the adjustable tube straw rotates the ball thereby operating the valve and regulating the rate of flow of fluid from the container through the passage and the adjustable tube straw to the user.

Abstract: A combination baby bottle and solid food compartment with spoon is adapted for use with a small child in the range of 3 months to 41/2 years of age. The bottle is uniquely shaped for easy gripping by the child and is divided into multiple compartments for holding separate liquids. The compartments are accessed through a valve arrangement, and the liquids can be dispensed by means of a sipper, straws or a nipple. The nipple is adapted to simulate a woman's breast, with the texture of the surface area of the nipple extension and surrounding the extension having a raspberry effect. The food compartment fits on the bottom of the bottle in an inverted position to provide a wide base for the combination. The handle of the spoon is shaped to fit the contour of the bottle to which it is secured by a clip. The spoon is uniquely shaped to fit the child's mouth or oral cavity.
