Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/079258
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device for releasable attachment to a surface. In particular, the present invention relates to feeding bowls (1) (for example for infants or pets) and other items such as toys that are releasably attachable to a surface using a suction device. The device has a base (2) having a lower contact portion (8a) and a suction device releasably attachable to a surface and releasably engageable with the base. The suction device has a base engagement means (3) for releasable engagement with the base, and a pliable foot (5) for contacting a surface having a surface contact portion comprising an outer skirt portion (7). When the base is engaged with the suction device, the lower contact portion of the base contacts and compresses an upper contact surface of the suction device, or the outer skirt portion. A slipping surface (41) or plate (10) may also be arranged between the base and the pliable foot to reduce friction as the bowl is rotated relative to the pliable foot.
