Patent number: 10765606Abstract: A baby bottle holder for supporting a baby bottle in a manner that allows a baby to feed from a baby bottle. A substantially planar support frame has a bottom portion, a top portion with a rounded first side and a rounded second side with an opening configured to accept a portion of a baby bottle. A first side portion of the support frame is spaced apart from a second side portion, so that a baby can grasp one or both side portions. A bottle gripping element lines the opening. In one example, the bottle gripping element is a thin layer of rubbery material. In another example, the bottle gripping element includes a compliant seal portion adapted to accepting bottles of various diameters. In various examples, the frame includes rattles, movable elements such as rotatable wheels, or decorative elements such as “ears”.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2013Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Inventors: Joseph Murillo, Roy Paul Prosise

Patent number: 8235190Abstract: Beverage holders adapted to attach to the upwardly extending arms of the handle assembly of a wheeled piece of luggage are described herein. The holders are adapted to twist and pivot when holding a cup with a beverage contained therein to maintain the axis of the beverage cup in a position generally orthogonal with a flat ground surface. The mechanism permitting the pivoting typically comprises a pair of opposing suspension arms that are fabricated of an elastomeric polymer that has sufficient tensile strength to support a beverage cup filled with a beverage but also has a sufficiently low flexural modulus to permit the cup to pivot when the angle of the handle assembly relative to the ground is changed.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2008Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Assignee: FLI, LLCInventors: Karen Porte, Douglas P Collins, Kenneth W House

Patent number: 4702719Abstract: An infant's amusement device comprises a suspension bar adapted to be supported in a horizontal position during use for suspending a plurality of toys therefrom, a pair of supporting bars disposed in a common plane at the opposite ends of the suspension bar, and a pair of juncture bars joining the supporting bars to the opposite ends of the suspension bar and lying in a common plane with the suspension bar. The latter common plane is at an acute angle of 30.degree.-75.degree. to the common plane of the supporting bars, whereby the supporting bars stably support the suspension bar in a horizontal position on and spaced above a horizontal surface to enable the infant to lie under the suspension bar, parallel to and straddled by the supporting bars, and to touch the toy suspended from the suspension bar. Three embodiments are described, namely a unitary construction, a foldable three-part construction, and a foldable five-part construction.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 1985Date of Patent: October 27, 1987Assignee: Tzora Furniture Industries Ltd.Inventor: Aharon M.

Patent number: 3993274Abstract: A bottle holding frame for infants includes a pair of spaced apart support frames of generally inverted U-shape, and a rotatable bridge member extending transversely between the tops of the support frames. A bottle holder carried on the bridge member clamps around a bottle to hold it in a downwardly tilted position for a baby placed under the bottle holding frame. A stop arm at one end of the bridge member rotates with the bridge member and can be positioned so it either holds the bottle in a fixed tilted position, or it allows the bottle to rotate freely, so that when the baby releases the bottle, it rotates to a position which prevents the bottle contents from dripping on the baby.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 1975Date of Patent: November 23, 1976Inventor: Mary Jo Jansen
