Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for inflating a balloon, comprising a housing for providing the balloon in the non-inflated state, an inflator arranged in the housing and an actuating device, wherein the inflator a connector for receiving the mouthpiece of the balloon, a pressure vessel for providing Gas for inflating the balloon and a trigger mechanism for opening the pressure vessel comprises.
- the invention is generally concerned with a device for inflating a balloon, in particular with a gift or joke article for inflating a balloon.
- An enclosure of any type includes an inflatable balloon wherein the air / gas required for inflation is provided via a pressure vessel.
- An integral actuator can be triggered manually, allowing the balloon to emerge from the container and more or less provide a surprising effect.
- the device according to the invention is a special device for inflating a balloon, which comprises an actuating device in addition to the inflator, wherein the actuating device acts within the housing on a pressure vessel or a triggering mechanism.
- US Pat. No. 5,935,013 is mentioned, from which a device for inflating a balloon is known, wherein the balloon is arranged in the uninflated state within a container or a box, suitable as a gift box.
- the balloon is placed with its mouthpiece over a holding stub.
- a gas cartridge is irreversibly plugged into or into a valve body in a valve body which surrounds the holding stub, so that the gas in the pressure cartridge can flow into the balloon via the holding stub.
- a special actuator is provided, which can be actuated by opening the lid of the box.
- the actuator may be a cable or a band-shaped train.
- valve is actuated by opening the lid, whereby the gas contained in the print cartridge can flow into the balloon.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object to form an alternative embodiment of a device for inflating a balloon and to combine several surprise effects.
- the device should be as small as possible and be simple in construction and operation.
- the generic device is characterized in that the actuating device comprises a rotary body, preferably a cylindrical sleeve, which is directly or indirectly coupled to the pressure vessel or the trigger mechanism, wherein by extending a rolled up on the coupled rotary body banner, one Cloth, a flag, a tab, etc. of the rotary body rotatable and a relative movement between the pressure vessel and release mechanism is effected, whereby the pressure vessel and a flow connection between the interior of the pressure vessel and the connecting piece can be produced.
- the actuating device comprises a rotary body, preferably a cylindrical sleeve, which is directly or indirectly coupled to the pressure vessel or the trigger mechanism, wherein by extending a rolled up on the coupled rotary body banner, one Cloth, a flag, a tab, etc. of the rotary body rotatable and a relative movement between the pressure vessel and release mechanism is effected, whereby the pressure vessel and a flow connection between the interior of the pressure vessel and the connecting piece can be produced.
- a banner may for example be provided with a greeting message that becomes visible when the actuating device is triggered.
- the balloon is inflated. This is realized in a sophisticated manner in that the banner is rolled up on a rotary body, which can be coupled to the inflator.
- the coupling of the rotating body is to be understood as a "sharpening" of the inflator Before coupling, the rotary body, as far as the banner allows, freely rotatable, at least not yet acts on the inflator The banner can in this state as often pulled out and again After coupling the rotary body to the inflator, rotating the rotary body by pulling the banner out of the housing causes relative movement between the pressure vessel and the firing mechanism and opens the flow connection between the interior of the inflator
- an additional valve is not necessary - as is known in practice - quite the contrary, the invention goes a completely different way, namely changes the position of the pressure vessel and / or the trigger mechanism to each other for example, over he realized a thread.
- a donor can edit the banner as desired and then "curl" the device or the inflator for the recipient by coupling the rotary body after curling the banner
- the recipient can take off his greeting message from the housing and thus escape and inflate
- the housing in the form of a roller, which is preferably designed as a cylindrical sleeve in order to provide space for the pressure vessel in its interior
- the triggering mechanism and the housing must be designed accordingly. Consequently, with the device according to the invention an alternative embodiment of a device for inflating a balloon is realized and combined several surprise effects.
- the tripping mechanism is a piercing spike.
- the piercing pin engages or stings during the relative movement of pressure vessel and release mechanism in the pressure vessel to establish the flow connection.
- the pressure vessel may for example be closed by a pierceable sealing membrane or a reusable sealing ring, which are penetrated by the piercing spike to produce a flow connection.
- the pressure vessel may be closed, for example, by a pierceable membrane or a reusable sealing ring, which are penetrated by the tapping mandrel.
- a flow connection is established.
- the membrane to be pierced is firmly connected to the usually commercially available pressure vessel (for example CO2 cartridge).
- An additional ring seal prevents the escape of gas into an area next to the balloon.
- the pressure vessel is designed as a gas cartridge which can be inserted or screwed into the device, in particular as a CO2 cartridge, which may generally contain compressed or liquid gas.
- gas cartridges which can be used.
- Such gas cartridges optionally also comprise sealing means and may be thermally insulated due to cooling during the discharge of the gas through its pressure housing or through a jacket of the pressure housing. This has the further advantage of avoiding condensation on the surface of the cartridge housing and thus also icing of the cartridge on the surface. This can also be accomplished by thermally isolating the cartridge as a whole, for example, by surrounding the cartridge with a shell that is removable and reusable.
- the rotary body can be coupled with a coupling element which is rigidly arranged on the pressure vessel or the triggering mechanism.
- the Coupling to the coupling element can be done by screwing and / or engagement of the rotary body in the direction of the coupling element.
- the rotary body To rotate the rotary body and / or to couple the rotary body with the Aufblaseinrich- device or with the coupling element, the rotary body in an ideal manner on a rotary and / or pressure element.
- a rotary and / or pressure element at the distal end of the sleeve at a location accessible to the user at the housing offers. It is particularly advantageous if the banner has a handle to take off. In the rolled-up state of the banner, this handle is preferably on the outside of the housing and snaps into this.
- the solid banner By turning the rotary body, the solid banner can be rolled up again in an advantageous manner, namely, the rotary body can be rotated by means of a rotary and / or pressure element. Also conceivable is a réellespannende spring that automates the curling or at least favors.
- the banner in such a way that it can be individually labeled in advance or only after it has been removed, for example, by the person giving the gift and / or can be printed and / or painted.
- the banner can be provided with a variety of greetings, news, photos and / or other images that the recipient sees when the banner is pulled out and thus when the device is operated.
- the device allows in two ways a surprise effect, on the one hand, the rolling of the banner and on the other the inflation of the balloon.
- the banner in the extended state of the rotary body is removable. This can be done by cutting and / or tearing off.
- a connector and / or double-sided tape and / or a Velcro connection the banner is malleable to a lampshade.
- one or more can be provided in a housing in the handle of the banner and / or in the preferably revealable housing
- Lampshade holder may be arranged, which can be arranged on the housing such that the lampshade is fastened thereto or at least can be stored thereon.
- the handle of the banner may be a handle housing which is obviously and has one or more lampshade holders inside.
- the housing of the device may be apparent and include one or more removable and / or hinged and / or extendable lampshade holders.
- a preferably electric light source is arranged or can be arranged.
- This light source could be, for example, before the structure of the lampshade holder and the lampshade inside the housing.
- a holder for a tealight is conceivable.
- a mechanical sound generator preferably a whistle, a diaphragm, etc. is assigned in the connection piece. The gas flowing into the balloon activates the sound generator.
- a whistling sound can be generated, which underlines the visual effect of the inflation of a balloon and the associated surprise.
- the connecting piece is associated with a further unit for generating an optical and / or acoustic effect, which is actuated by the gas flowing into the balloon.
- This may, for example, be a light effect or the output of confetti.
- the actuating device comprises a preferably electric sound module or preferably acts on a sound module via the actuating member.
- the output of music and / or voice information can activate, for example, the singing of a birthday song. Any combinations with sound and / or lighting effects can be generated.
- the inflator has a manually or automatically operable relief valve for discharging the balloon Gas on.
- the balloon could remain on the fitting for receiving the mouthpiece and inflated several times in the state there and also relieved by discharging the gas or be returned to its original state.
- a sudden and user-fearful escape of the gas from the balloon upon withdrawal of the balloon from the fitting can be prevented, for example, by the ingress of a backflow preventing valve in the mouthpiece of the balloon.
- Other solutions are conceivable. Also conceivable is the embodiment with two or more inflators, so that at the same time two or more balloons are inflatable.
- the inflator could comprise two or more identical or different pressure vessels, for example using the same or different gas cartridges, even with different gases, namely to produce different effects. Again, it can be "played" with different effects.
- the housing is in a particularly advantageous manner a gift item, for example in the form of a roll.
- the movable part of the device is an extendable banner, which rotates the rotary body located in the housing and triggers the inflation of the balloon, namely via a relative movement between the pressure vessel and the triggering mechanism.
