AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

Enables continuous bubble generation without manual dipping, reducing spillage and waste by using a pump system to deliver solution to the ring and a collection funnel to return excess solution to the container, while allowing a stream of water to be directed at bubbles.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, this continuous pouring and re-pouring of bubble solution from the bottle to the dish, and from the dish back to the bottle, often results in unintended spillage, which can be messy, dirty, and a waste of bubble solution.

Embodiment Construction

[0035] The following detailed description is of the best presently contemplated modes of carrying out the invention. This description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating general principles of embodiments of the invention. The scope of the invention is best defined by the appended claims. In certain instances, detailed descriptions of well-known devices and mechanisms are omitted so as to not obscure the description of the present invention with unnecessary detail.

[0036] The present invention provides a bubble generating assembly that can, upon actuating a first trigger, generate a plurality of bubbles without the need to manually dip a bubble ring into bubble solution. The bubble generating assembly of the present invention can also, upon actuating a second trigger positioned next to the first trigger, generate a stream of liquid that can be aimed at the bubbles.

Abstract

A bubble generating assembly has a housing having a front opening, with a bubble generating ring and a nozzle positioned adjacent the front opening. The assembly has a first container coupled to the housing and retaining bubble solution, and a second container coupled to the housing and retaining a liquid (e.g., water). The first and second containers can be positioned next to each other. The assembly also has a first trigger, and a second trigger positioned next to the first trigger so that a user can simultaneously actuate the first and second triggers.
