BARNETT B. VIIALEY, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
TOY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 554,555, dated February 1 1, 1896.
Application filed May 13, 1895.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, BARNETT B. WHALEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Toys, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a toy which can be effectively used in producing soap-bubbles; and the invention resides in the novel featurcs of construction set forth in the following specification and claims, and illustrated in the annexed drawings, in which Figure 1 is a sectional side elevation of the toy. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of a modification. Fig. 3 is a detail view of a valve. Fig. et is a detail view of a further modification. Fig. is a detail view of' a pipe-bowl. Fig. 6 shows a further modification.
The bulb or pump 1 has passages forming an inlet 2 and an outlet 3. The well-known elastic or compressible bulb is serviceable for this purpose, though of course various forms of pumping or forcing arrangement could be employed. The inlet and outlet have valveseats 4L against which sit the valves 5 formed of disks, as seen in Fig. 3, each disk havinga lip or projection 6. A screw or tube 7 is screwed to the inlet and a tube 7 to the outlet, the inlet and outlet being suitably tapped or threaded for this purpose. The outletscrew 7 and inlet 2 have each a rim or projecting flange S of such size that the disk part 5 of the valve can enter the ring-like space formed by the flange; but said flange, when the tube 7' is screwed into place, will clamp or hold the lip part 6 of the valve, so that the disk part 5 being held or supported by the lip 6 cannot become displaced, while the lip is thin or flexible enough to allow the disk 5 to play or swing from and against the valve-seat as the respective passage is to be opened or closed. The operation of the bulb or pump 1 will thus cause air to enter through inlet 2 and to be ejected through outlet To each screw 7 and 7 is connected orslippcd a tube or coupling 9, the coupling at the inlet sido being provided with a smoke-supplier, such as a cigar or cigarette holder A, having' a cigar or cigarette B, Fig. l, or a tobacco-pipe A, Fig. 2. At the outlet side the coupling 9 is provided with a pipe 10.
Serial No. 549,157. (No model.)
The pipe 10 being dipped into soapsuds, as customary when blowing soap-bubbles, and the pump 1 being then worked, air and smoke will enter through inlet 2 and will be ejected through outlet 3 and pipe 10, so that the resulting soap bubble will contain smoke. Vhen such a bubble is caused to fioat off and break, the smoke escaping on the rupture of the bubble will give somewhat the effect of a shell exploding on a battlefield, thus producing startling effects and affording amusenient.
'lo prevent burns or accidents from the lighted cigar or cigarette B, a protector C, such as a sheath or non-combustible tube, can be slipped or placed about the cigarette or cigar. Similarly the pipe A for burning tobacco can be provided with a protector O', consisting of a cover or perforated plate.
In place of smoke'it is evident that other substance or vapor-as, for example, perfume-might be allowed to enter from a suitable sponge or absorbentinto the inlet 2 and thence into the bubble. It is also to be noted that the bowl or eXit 10, instead of being used to form soap-bubbles,could be used as an inhaler to suitably deliver smoke or fumesas, for example, from a cubeb cigarette, the fumes of which are to be inhaled through the nose.
The bulb or forcing-chamber 1 might of course be given various shapes or designs. In order to prevent the valves or disks 5 from becoming hard or deteriorated by the smoke and vapor, I make the same of mica, which I have found is durable and unchangeable and at the same time sufficiently elastic to yield and to form an effectively closing valve.
The inlet 2 when not provided with any smoke or other supply will allow plain air to pass through the device to be used for forming plain soap-bubbles or otherwise utilized.
The bowl of pipe A' is shown with a flange 13 against which sits the cover C', and in case such cover C should not fit properly a packing 14 inserted between the flange 13 and flange 15 will cause said cover to firmly sit in place. Likewise the pipe-bowl 10l is shown provided with a Hange 13, and when said bowl 10 is held in upright position while a bubble is blown, Fig. 5, the flange 13 will prevent said bubble from sagging or will keep said Vloo bubble in upright position. Said bowl 10 may also be provided with a cover 16 having a plurality of holes, which when the bowl is dipped into soapsuds and air ejected therefrom will cause a variety or plurality of bubbles. Said bowl 10',if seen it,can have apacking like the packing 14 on bowl A. A clamp or spring 17 adapted to clamp or engage against the interior of the bowl has a stem or support 1S from which can be suspended or en which can be supported a ligure 19, as of a man, or of any object, and the soap-bubble when blown will forni about such figure. To properly support the figure in the bubble the stem or support 18 should extend centrally alon gin the bowl and the latter should be as near as possible of cylindrical bore.
By having the stem or support extended through the betteln of the pipe-bowl, as shown by the stem 18, Fig. 4, having handle 20, the bubble can be blown while the ii gu re or i gures 19 are in the bowl, and after the bubble is completed the figure 19 can be moved or slid by handle 2O into the bubble.
IVhen the cover 1G is used with stem 1S, the cover 16 should have a central opening for the passage of the stein.
In order to have the bubbles properly adhere to the bottom or outer face of the cover, said outer face should be roughened, the roughening being readily obtained by pierein g the holes in the cover in an outward direction, so that jagged portions of the cover will lie adjacent to the openings.
The spring for clamping the interior of the bowl can be formed with a gage 21,which gage sitting against the bowl-bottom as the spring 17 is forced into place will align the support 1S with the bowl-axis, or in other words will bring the support 1S into central position relatively to the bore of the bowl. This gage 21 can, however, be omitted if desired.
In order to prevent ashes or foreign matter passing in through inlet 2 or to the inlet-valve, a sieve or strainer 22 can be properly applied at said inlet.
In Fig. 6 a support 182 is shown adapted to engage or be suspended from a bowl-cover 1G, said support or stem 1S2 having a bent or attaching portion suitably shaped-as, for example, approximately screw -threaded-so that said attaching portion can be readily inserted into the central hole of cover 1G, even when. said cover is on the bowl.
