Abstract

A bottle warming apparatus for use while traveling or doing outdoor activities. The bottle warming apparatus includes a tubular main member having an open end, closed end and an interior perimeter wall positioned such that the interior perimeter wall and the closed end define a bottle holding space designed for snugly receiving a bottle, the main member also includes an outer perimeter wall positioned in spaced relationship with the interior perimeter wall; a fluid positioned in the interior space; a frangible bubble positioned in the interior space, a pellet positioned in the frangible bubble which causes an exothermic reaction when the pellet contacts the fluid when the frangible bubble is broken; the outer perimeter wall is flexible to permit squeezing of the interior space to break the frangible bubble causing the fluid contacts and the pellet to initiate the exothermic reaction heating the bottle positioned in the bottle holding space.

Dependent claims

A bottle warming apparatus comprising:

a tubular main member having an open end and a closed end;
said tabular main member having an interior perimeter wall positioned such that said interior perimeter wall and said closed end define a bottle holding space adapted for snugly receiving a bottle;
said main member having an outer perimeter wall positioned in spaced relationship with said interior perimeter wall, a top of said outer perimeter wall being joined to a top of said interior perimeter wall to define an interior space between said interior perimeter wall and said outer perimeter wall;
a fluid positioned in said interior space;
a frangible bubble positioned in said interior space, a pellet positioned in said frangible bubble, said pellet causing an exothermic reaction when said pellet contacts said fluid when said frangible bubble is broken;
said outer perimeter wall being flexible to permit squeezing of said interior space to break said frangible bubble whereby said fluid contacts said pellet to initiate said exothermic reaction whereby said main member is adapted for heating the bottle positioned in said bottle holding space;
a dividing wall extending between said interior perimeter wall and said outer perimeter wall to divide said interior space into an upper interior space and a lower interior space;
said frangible bubble being a first frangible bubble, said first frangible bubble being positioned in said upper interior space;
a second frangible bubble said second frangible bubble being positioned in said lower interior space;
and
a second pellet, said second pellet being positioned in said second frangible bubble said second pellet causing an exothermic reaction when said second pellet contacts said fluid when said second frangible bubble is broken.

said frangible bubble being a first frangible bubble, said first frangible bubble being positioned in said upper interior space;
a second frangible bubble, said second frangible bubble being positioned in said lower interior space;
a second pellet, said second pellet being positioned in said second frangible bubble, said second pellet causing an exothermic reaction when said second pellet contacts said fluid when said second frangible bubble is broken;
said frangible bubble being coupled to said interior perimeter wall;
said first frangible bubble being coupled to said interior perimeter wall;
said second frangible bubble being coupled to said interior perimeter wall;
and
wherein said fluid is water and said pellet is comprised of calcium chloride.
