Actively heated or cooled infant bottle system
First Claim
1. An infant bottle feeding system, comprising:
- an electronic base configured to removably support an infant bottle on an upper surface thereof, the electronic base comprising;
one or more sensors, at least one of the one or more sensors configured to sense a weight of the infant bottle when placed on the electronic base,a transceiver, andcircuitry configured to communicate with the one or more sensors and the transceiver, the circuitry operable to one or more of;
record one or both of a start time and start weight of the infant bottle prior to an infant feeding event,record one or both of an end time and end weight of the infant bottle following an infant feeding event,calculate one or both of an elapsed time between the start time and end time and a consumption amount based on a difference between the start weight and end weight, andone or both of store the elapsed time and consumption amount in a memory of the electronic base and wirelessly communicate via the transceiver the elapsed time and consumption amount to one or both of a remote electronic device and a to the cloud-based data storage system for storage and from which data is accessible via a dashboard interface on an electronic device; and
a thermal cover configured to fit over the infant bottle and to releasably couple to the electronic base to completely enclose the infant bottle between the thermal cover and the electronic base, the thermal cover configured to insulate the infant bottle and inhibit heat loss of liquid in the infant bottle.

Abstract
An infant bottle feeding system includes an infant bottle with a chamber that receives a liquid, heating or cooling elements operable to heat or cool liquid in the chamber and sensors operable to sense parameters of the liquid in the chamber. The system optionally includes an electronic base removably attached to a bottom surface of the infant bottle and operable to deliver power to electronics in the infant bottle. The system optionally includes a thermal cover that fits over the infant bottle and releasably couples to the electronic base to enclose the infant bottle, the thermal cover insulating the infant bottle and inhibiting heat loss of the liquid in the chamber. The electronic base delivers power to the heating elements and sensors in the infant bottle only when the infant bottle is on the electronic base. The infant bottle, thermal cover and electronic base define a single travel pack unit when coupled together.

17. An infant bottle feeding system, comprising:
-
an infant bottle having a body with a chamber configured to receive a liquid therein, the infant bottle comprising; one or more heating elements housed in the body and in thermal communication with the chamber and operable to heat a liquid in the chamber, and one or more sensors in communication with the chamber and operable to sense one or more parameters of the liquid in the chamber; an electronic base removably attached to a bottom surface of the infant bottle and configured to deliver power to electronics in the infant bottle; and a thermal cover configured to fit over a top of the infant bottle and to releasably couple to the electronic base to completely enclose the infant bottle between the thermal cover and the electronic base, the thermal cover configured to insulate the infant bottle and inhibit heat loss of liquid in the chamber, wherein the electronic base is configured to deliver power to one or both of the one or more heating elements and the one or more sensors in the infant bottle only when the infant bottle is on the electronic base, and wherein the infant bottle, thermal cover and electronic base define a single travel pack unit when coupled together. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
