向上する。 With this setting, a fountain f made of cloudy shaved ice is generated from the nozzle 1, as shown in Fig.
A second group of optical fibers 3 and 4 provides ring-shaped illumination. Further, the second group of optical fibers 4 illuminates a portion of the second group of optical fibers 3 located on the outer periphery near the upper end of the cylindrical body 2. Note that between the first and second groups of optical fibers, a third group of optical fibers made of the same material may be laminated substantially parallel thereto. This further improves the decorative effect.

層高めることができる。(Effect of the invention) Because the fountain spout is located below the water surface and shoots up water, the fountain draws in air and becomes cloudy, as if it were made of shaved ice. In this state, the bubbles are just like a collection of soap bubbles, so when the bubbles are illuminated from the inside in a ring shape, the bubbles reflect the light and shine as if the fountain were a luminous body. Unlike something that simply looks like it has been dyed, it surprises the viewer and can further enhance the decorative effect.
