Patent number: 10479567Abstract: A drink container with torque-limiting lid is provided. The drink container includes a lid that can be threadably coupled to a container body having a volume to hold fluids. The lid can include an inner lid assembly concentric with an outer lid assembly. The inner lid assembly can include a multiple ratchet teeth along an outer perimeter and the outer lid assembly can include one or more ratchet pawls along an inner perimeter and configured to engage the ratchet teeth. Rotational force on the outer lid assembly can be transferred to the inner lid assembly from the ratchet pawls to the ratchet teeth to threadably couple the inner lid assembly to the container body. Once a torque limit is reached, the ratchet pawls can slip along the ratchet teeth preventing further tightening of the inner lid assembly to the container body.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2017Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Assignee: NUK USA LLCInventors: Peter Therrien, Richard Rubin, Mario A.

Patent number: 10307686Abstract: An activity gym with an arch that is readily movable between a first position and a second position. The activity gym includes a base sized to support an infant positioned on the base with the base having a perimeter. The nursing cover further includes an arch pivotally connected to the base along the perimeter of the base. The arch movable between a first position in which the arch is substantially perpendicular to the base and a second position in which the arch is adjacent to the base. The activity gym can also include a means for affixing an image capturing device such that the image capturing device is capable of capturing images of an infant positioned on the base of the activity gym.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2016Date of Patent: June 4, 2019Assignee: SKIP HOP, INC.Inventors: Benjamin Bearsch, Peter Therrien, Chelsea Carter, Janet Villano, Ellen Diamant

Patent number: 9969418Abstract: A stroller shade includes a unique clamp for attaching the shade to a stroller. The clamp has an inner clip and an outer clip. The outer clip selectively locks in place over the inner clip to prevent the inner clip from opening. When the outer clip is slid in a direction opposite an opening of the inner clip, one can open the inner clip to slide over a stroller bar to thereby allow one to clamp on a bar of a stroller thereby allowing one to attach the stroller shade to a stroller. The stroller shade attaches to a stroller to cover the seat area, in a first position, and rolled up, and held in place, to a top portion of a stroller, in a second position, while the stroller shade remains attached to the stroller, e.g. along a top portion of the stroller shade.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2016Date of Patent: May 15, 2018Assignee: SKIP HOP, INC.Inventors: Peter Therrien, Rahnee Butler, Ellen Diamant, Benjamin Bearsch, Janet Villano
