Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a kit of parts which includes means to assist deflating an inflated balloon of elastomeric material.
  • Elastomeric balloons typically of latex, are inflated by air or by helium for use as playthings or party decorations. Inflated balloons may be ruptured with an associated loud popping sound by contact with a sharp object or implement. Some people, particularly some small children, dislike or are distressed by the sound of balloons being deflated in this way.
  • Illuminated balloons are now well known, as disclosed in the applicant's earlier WO2008/1 10832 and GB2452236 where a small light source, typically a light emitting diode (LED), and a battery or batteries providing a power source for the light source are mounted as a unit inside the balloon.
  • a small light source typically a light emitting diode (LED)
  • LED light emitting diode
  • a battery or batteries providing a power source for the light source
  • the present invention proposes a method of deflating an inflated balloon of elastomeric material by providing a patch having adhesive means on a first major surface and providing an opening in a generally central region of the patch; providing the patch as a releasable patch initially releasably affixed to a sheet of backing material; peeling the patch from the backing material and affixing the patch to the exterior of the balloon by pressing the first major surface of the patch into contact with the exterior of the balloon so that the adhesive means adheres to the balloon; and puncturing the balloon at a location within the opening defined by the patch.
  • the patch which may be termed a "deflation sticker”
  • the patch should be affixed to the exterior of the balloon so as to surround a neck region providing a tied off inlet/outlet of the balloon.
  • the balloon is preferably punctured by cutting off the tied off inlet/outlet of the balloon. This results in even more rapid and controlled deflation as a relatively large portion of balloon material is cut away. There is no longer any risk of any light unit mounted inside the balloon being catapulted outwards. Also, partially because of the large hole and partially because the presence of the sticker prevents the tear from propagating, there is no unwanted "bang".
  • the invention also proposes, as a second aspect, a kit of parts comprising at least one balloon of elastromeric material, a pack of sheet material and at least one patch carried as a peelable patch on one surface of the pack, the or each patch having its peelable surface provided with adhesive means and having an opening in a generally central region so that it may be removed from the pack and affixed to the balloon after inflation to enable safe deflation thereof according to the aforesaid method.
  • the pack of sheet material has a main leaf and at least one adjoining leaf delimited by a fold line, such that the balloon or balloons are enclosed between the main leaf and the folded over adjoining leaf or leaves for packaging and presentation at point of sale.
  • Figure 1 is a plan view of an open pack carrying five patches (deflation stickers) forming two parts of a kit of parts in accordance with the second aspect of the present invention
  • Figure 2 is a similar plan view of the open pack with five balloons placed therein, ready to be packaged for supply to point of sale;
  • FIGS 3, 4, and 5 show the sequence of steps in the preferred method of the invention.
  • the leaves 1 1 , 12, 13 are folded over to overlie the main leaf 14 and the balloons and each other to form a rectangular envelope which can easily be inserted into a cover of transparent plastics material for packaging, e.g. in multiples in boxes and for display at point of sale.
  • a narrow band, tape or strap may optionally be included in the pack, or wrapped around the folded pack before it is inserted into the plastic bag.
  • the purpose of this band or strap or similar is to provide a measure of length for a user to determine the optimum or preferred maximum size of inflated balloon, namely the recommended maximum circumference. For a typical size balloon this is equivalent to a 9 inch (22.86 cm) diameter.
  • the number of balloons and the number of stickers may differ from the above example.
  • the shape of the stickers may differ. They need not be circular or ring shaped. They may be rectangular, or any regular or irregular shape and may have additional extensions.
  • the opening in the central region may also take any shape.
  • the stickers may be affixed to the balloon pack in any position or arrangement and subsequently may be adhered to the balloon at any position. When adhered other than around the knot area, the balloon can be pierced in the opening surrounded by sticker material by a pin or other sharp object. However sticking the patch around the knot and cutting off the knot is to be preferred as the most reliable way to avoid any risk of a popping sound and to achieve such rapid deflation that parts are not propelled outwards from the place when the balloon is ruptured.
