Abstract

A level indicator takes the form of an animal or other figure and is hollow. The figure can be designed such that it "dances" when pressure is applied to the tube, and can also have changing colour according to hot or cold temperatures. The figure can be arranged to light up in the dark, or be fitted with a mini-thermometer or other indicator. The figure can be filled with fluid which freezes when cooled and can be used for icing drinks at parties, or can be designed to provide a noise when squeezed.

Description

Die Erfindung ist der neue Füllstandsanzeiger in Form eines Tieres oder einer anderen Figur, in einer Tube - Standtube -. Diese Figur soll sich in einer durchsichtigen Standtube, in der sich ein durchsichtiges Glitzergel, Duschbad, Schaumbad oder Shampoo befinden. Das Kind (Verbraucher) sieht so sehr deutlich wie weit die Flüssigkeit verbraucht ist. Da das Tier aus einem Hohlkörper (Plastik) besteht, der durch seine Leichtigkeit fähig ist, frei in oder auf der Substanz zu schwimmen. Also schwimmt somit auch in der Badewanne. Durch Drücken auf die Tube, kann das Kind die Figur tanzen lassen. Selbst die Augen der Figur sind beweglich. Ebenso ist die Figur durch die Farbbeschaffenheit fähig, bei Temperaturwechsel - Wärme und Kälte -, die Farbe zu wechseln. Sobald das Shampoo, Dusch oder Badegel aufgebraucht ist, kann man durch Aufschneiden oder Aufreißen der Tube von oben an der Perforation (Schweißnaht) in Besitz der Figur kommen. Durch selbständiges Aufladen bei Tageslicht leuchtet die Figur im Dunkeln, entweder noch in der Flüssigkeit oder dann als "ausgepackte" Figur. Das Kind ist von der Vielfalt der Technik fasziniert, die diese kleine Figur in der Tube beinhaltet.The invention is the new level indicator in the form of an animal or another figure, in a tube - stand tube -. This figure is said to be in a see-through standing tube, in which a transparent glitter gel, shower bath, bubble bath or shampoo. The child (Consumer) sees very clearly how far the liquid has been used. Because the animal is out a hollow body (plastic), which is able to move freely in or on the Substance to swim. So it also swims in the bathtub. By pressing the tube, the child can make the figure dance. Even the eyes of the figure are flexible. The figure is also capable of changing colors - heat and temperature Cold - to change color. As soon as the shampoo, shower or bath gel is used up by cutting or tearing the tube from above at the perforation (weld seam) come into possession of the figure. The figure lights up when it is charged independently in daylight in the dark, either still in the liquid or then as an "unwrapped" figure. The child is fascinated by the variety of technology that this small figure contains in the tube.

Vorerst haben wir vor, die Auswahl der Figur auf Tiere der bedrohten Art zu beschränken, um einen erzieherischen Zweck auf Kinder auszuüben. Es besteht selbstverständlich die Möglichkeit, die Palette der Figuren vielfältig zu erweitern.For now, we plan to limit the selection of the figure to animals of the endangered species in order to to exercise an educational purpose on children. Of course there is the possibility to expand the range of figures in many ways.
