Abstract
An internal element (310) for a feeding bottle (100) is provided, the feeding bottle comprising a teat component (110), and a container component (120), which together define a bottle volume extending longitudinally between a base end of the container component, and a top end of the teat component. The internal element (310) comprises a disc element (620) configured to be positioned within the bottle volume extending transverse the longitudinal axis, and further comprises one or more tab elements (640) protruding from an outer periphery (630) of the disc element for being received between interfacing parts of a coupling arrangement (340, 342) of the bottle.

A feeding bottle device comprising:
- a teat component, and a container component, which together define a bottle volume extending longitudinally between a base end of the container component, and a top end of the teat component;
- and
- an internal element comprising a disc element configured to be positioned within the bottle volume extending transverse to a longitudinal axis, and further comprising one or more tab elements protruding from an outer periphery of the disc element for being received between interfacing parts of a coupling arrangement between the container component and teat component of the feeding bottle device, for being trapped therebetween when the feeding bottle device is assembled to thereby secure the internal element against displacement in a longitudinal direction when the feeding bottle device is assembled, wherein the internal element is positioned in the feeding bottle device to be in electrical contact with and/or data communication with contents of the bottle volume;
- and the coupling arrangement comprises a screw coupling which couples the teat component to the container component.
