COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Feeding Bottles.
JOSEPH AARONS 68 Brick Lane Spitalfields E. Medical Assistant 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 :-
My invention consists in the application of lines, marks, numbers, or their
equivalents to feeding bottles for the purpose of enabling foods or liquids to be mixed
in any required proportion and is carried out in the following manner. I provide
feeding bottle, preferably a wedge shaped, flat bottomed, screw necked stoppered
feeding bottle. Upon this I cast, engrave, or otherwise mark the bottle on one or
both of its sides with a series of lines, marks, numbers or their equivalents, a
suitable distance apart. These lines are most conveniently placed in a horizontal
position when the bottle is standing upright, that is parallel with the bottom of the
bottle but I do not confine myself to this position. I then denote these lines by letters
numbers or marks. When it is required to mix the milk or other liquids in any
suitable proportion, the bottle is filled up to, say, line A with milk and then to line W
with water. The bottle is so graduated that the proportions of milk and water for a
child of various ages can be mixed with perfect accuracy as the different proportions
of milk and water for a child varies according to its age. This proportion of milk and
water for the various ages of a child will be marked in a suitable position on the side
of the bottle. I also provide a series of condensed milk lines or marks, suitably
graduated. In the accompanying drawing Fig. I shows an elevation of a bottle
marked according to iny invention. A. B. C. W. are the various lines for different
proportions of different liquids. I may if desired add a separate series of lines for the
mixing of lime water with the ingredients composing the food.
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 :-
I. In feeding bottles, the marking the side of the bottle with lines marks letters or
numbers, by casting or engraving the same upon one or both sides of the bottle.
Dated this 15th day of October 1889.
