Angled baby bottle collar and nipple

Abstract

A baby bottle collar for connecting a nipple to a baby bottle including a body having a proximal opening and a distal opening in fluid communication; a nipple retaining protrusion encircling the distal opening, the nipple retaining protrusion configured to engage a nipple of a baby bottle; and a plurality of engagement elements provided adjacent the proximal opening that are configured to engage with an opening of the baby bottle. Where the body of the collar includes an angled bend such that the proximal opening is positioned in non-coaxial alignment with the distal opening. A baby bottle nipple including a nipple body having a proximal opening, a nipple protrusion extending from the nipple body, and a distal opening defined in an end of the nipple protrusion. The nipple protrusion extending from the nipple body at an angle such that a longitudinal axis of the nipple protrusion forms a nonlinear angle.
