SOAP- ER Application filed April 6, 1915.
To all whom it may com-cm I i Be it known that I, liilnnrru B. UnossMAn, a citizen of the United Statesresiding at Boston, county of SuffollgState of ll/lassachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Soap-Bubblers, of which the following description, in connection with the acconu anyingdrawing, is a specification, like characters on the drawing representing like parts.
This invention relates to soap I bubblers and has for its object to provide a simple soap bubbler provided with means for causing a whistling sound at the time that the bubble is blown, and also constructed so that when the bubbler is not in use the soap-con taining end may be covered, thus protecting the soap.
In order to give an understanding of my invention I have illustrated in the drawings a selected embodiment thereof which will now be described. after which the novel features will be pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of a soap bubbler embodying my invention with a double soap bubble being blown therefrom. Fig. 2 is a side view of the bubbler with the soap-containing end covered; Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the bubbler showing the parts in position for blowing the soap bubble; Fig. l is a perspective view of the soapretaining element.
My improved bubbler comprises a hollow casing 1 which is open at one end, as at 2, the other end 3 being closed except for a small opening 4 formed in the end wall of the casing. Situated in the casing is a removable soap-retaining element 5 herein shown as presenting a pointed end 6 on which a piece of soap 7 may be speared, and a retaining portion 8 which extends into the casing 1 and frictionally engages the wall thereof. This soap-retaining element 5 is also provided with a disk 10 of some frictional material such as rubber. through which the end 6 extends and which engages a laterally-extending portion 9. The disk 10 has frictional engagement with the walls of the casing. and thus serves to frictionally hold the element 5 in place. while permitting it to be readily removed. Said disk is formed on opposite sides withtwo openings or passages 21 through which the air passes when the bubble is being blown. The soap retaining element is preferably so construct ed that when it is fullv inserted into the eas- Specification of Letters Patent,
Serial No. 19,581.
ing with the end thereof engaging the end wall 30f the casingthe pointed end 6 ofsaid element Swill project beyond the open end 2 of the casing so that when the soap 7i's impaled on the end 6 the soap will project be yond the'open end of the casing. I will prefcrablyuse a piece of soap which h: a dimension in one direction equal to the liameter of the open end of the casing, but is narrower in the other direction, thereby'leaw :ing two passages 11 and 12 each side of the soap through which the current of air passes when the bubbler is being used.
'13 designates a cup-shaped element adapted to telescope over either end of the casing 1. This cup-shaped element constitutes a cap for closing the open end 2 and protecting and covering the soap when the bubbler is not in use, as shown in Fig. lVhen the soap bubbler is to be used this cap 13 is removed from the open end of the casing and then is telescoped over the closed end of the casing, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. This cap is provided with an opening 14 in its end and when it is placed in position on the casing, as shown in Figs. 1 and 8, with the closed end 15 thereof spaced the proper distance from the end 3 of the casing 1 and a person blows through the aperture 14, a whistling sound will be produced. This re sults from the relation between the apertures 14 and 4. and the space 16 between the ends 15 and 3. I will preferably provide the casing 1 with an annular rib or stop shoulder 1 which limits the telescopic movement of the element 13 over the closed end of the tube and positions said element correctly to enable the whistling sound to be produced. When the soap bubbler is in use not only will a whistling sound he produced which adds greatly to the amusement of the person using the device, but the construction is such that a double bubble will be blown, for the air which is blown through the casing 1 will be divided into two currents, one passing through each of the passages ll, 12, and each of these air currents will form a sepa rate bubble. The two bubbles will unite at the end of the soap, thus forming a twin or double bubble.
lVhen the device is not in use the cap element 13 can be removed from the closed end and placed over the open end of the casing, thus protecting the soap.
The casing is shown as having a second stop shoulder 18 thereon which positions the ratenmajoet. 5, 1e15 cap 13 when it is placed over the open end" the soap will soil any article with which the" device comesin contact. The device therefore, is a sanitary one.
While I have illustrated herein a selected embodiment of my invention I do not wish to be limited tothe constructional features shown.
I claim:
1. In a soap bubbler, the combination with a casing having'a closed end provided with: an aperture and an open end, of'a soapreta-ining element within said casing and a ca'pelement adapted to telescope over either end of the casing, said cap element having an aperture in its closed end which when in sertedpver the closed end of the casing constitutes therewith a whistle.
2. In a soap bubbler, the combination" with a tubular casing open at one end and provided with an aperture at the other end, of
a soap mass inserted into the open endof the casing but projectingbeyond said" end, said soap mass and easing having. such a relative shape as to provide two separate air passage s whereby a double bubble will be blown;
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification.
