ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a support for an infant feeder. The infant feeder itself comprises a hollow receptacle formed by an endless side wall extending in a longitudinal direction and having caps disposed at first and second ends thereof. A floating wall is disposed within the hollow receptacle and divides the interior of the hollow receptacle into a strained food receiving chamber and an air receiving chamber. A nipple is mounted on one of the caps at the first end of the receptacle. Food is supplied from the strained food receiving chamber to an infant through the nipple. A peg is molded or otherwise rigidly affixed to the other of the caps at the second end of the hollow receptacle. The peg extends substantially perpendicularly to a flat base portion of the other of the caps. A suction member forming the support for the feeder is removably secured to a surface on which the feeder is to be mounted. The suction member includes a suction cup portion and an upstanding central portion including a longitudinal bore formed therein. The peg is inserted into and interlocked with the longitudinal central bore either by friction or by a circumferentially extending rib received in a corresponding recess within the bore to securely mount the infant feeder on the surface.
