PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements connected with Milk-sterilizing and Feeding
Bottles.
I, MARIE JACOBS at Wandsbeck near Hamburg in Germany, Königstrasse 51
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
-
It is a well known fact that the milk sterilizing apparatus for babies have found.
great favour with the public in general. The only drawback with these apparatus.
however up to date was the want of a practical employing device similar to the
one recommended by the inventress of the present improvement. Hitherto nipples.
are made use of were far too great for the mouth of the babe, the particularly
shaped narrow neck of the sterilizing apparatus not allowing the use of smaller
stoppers and a decanting of the sterilized milk into special sucking bottles being.
contrary to the object of sterilisation.
For the purpose of sterilisation the bottles are being covered with a flat
indiarubber disk or cap which are held fast by the vacuum produced in the bottle
or the pressure of the atmosphere when its contents begins to cool; or the bottles.
may be stoppered with ordinary indiarubber stoppers.
C
The moment the milk is to be utilized the bottle is provided with a hollow
stopper terminating in a nipple to which by a superposed disk is given the size of a
natural nipple; this circumstance contributing much towards the babies taking the.
milk with greater willingness.

Improvements connected with Milk-sterilizing and Feeding
Bottles.
I, MARIE JACOBS, at Wandsbeck near Hamburg in Germany, Köenigstrasse 51,.
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
It is a well known fact that milk sterilizing apparatus for babies have found
great favour with the public in general. The only drawback with these apparatus
however up to date was the want of a practical employing device similar to the
one recommended by the inventress of the present improvement. Hitherto nipples
made use of are by far too great for the mouth of the babe, the particularly
shaped narrow neck of the sterilizing apparatus not allowing the use of smaller
stoppers and a decanting of the sterilized milk into special sucking bottles being
contrary to the object of sterilization.
The sucking nipple constituting the object of the present invention is represented
in Fig. 1 of the annexed design in cross-cut and consist of a hollow stopper (c) of

page_text: indiarubber, terminating in a hollow nipple (d) of the same material with a
superposed disk (e) of bone or ivory.
For the purpose of sterilization the bottles are covered with a flat indiarubber
disk or cap, which is held fast by the vacuum produced in the bottle or the pressure
of the atmosphere when its contents begin to cool; or the bottles may be stoppered
with ordinary indiarubber stoppers Fig. 2 (b).
The moment the milk is to be utilized, the bottle (a) is provided with a hollow
stopper (c) terminating in a nipple (d) to which by a superposed disk (e) Fig. 3
is given the size of a natural nipple this circumstance contributing much towards
the babies taking the milk with greater willingness.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:
A combined sucking stopper with superposed disk to be used on the bottles of
sterilizing apparatus substantially as set forth.
