Abstract:
A feeding device that is comprised of an outer containment module and inner compression device, so configured that a multiplicity of disposable liners can be nested within the device and then be individually dispensed as required for each new feeding. The disposable liners are held inside the bowl without need for mechanical hinges, moving rims or retaining devices, but rather by a very careful cooperation between the size of the liners and an inwardly extending retaining flange or lip on the top inner edge of the containment module. This unique design allows the user to simply press liners into the device or peel them out, whenever the circumstances require it. The compression device in the bottom of the containment module supports the liners and continuously keeps the supply of disposable liners conveniently staged at the top edge of the module, as well as keeps them from moving during feedings.
