Filed:
Apr 16, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/835773
Inventors:

Abstract:
A vertically disposed bubble maker comprising a specially designed container for reducing the amount of a bubble solution required for dipping a large, vertically oriented, bubble forming loop in bubble solution for blowing bubbles. A wand comprises a handle attached to the loop, and there is a loop opening inside the loop. The container retains a liquid bubble solution, is open at the top, and is large enough so that the loop opening can be fully submerged in bubble solution when the loop is vertically oriented and when the container is full. The container has a shape that is substantially conformal to the shape of the vertically oriented loop when both the loop and the container are viewed from above. In the preferred embodiment, the container comprises a lower and an upper section, the lower section is the holster, the upper section is the reservoir. In this embodiment, the width of the reservoir is greater than the width of the holster, and the vertical cross-sectional area of the reservoir is greater than the vertical cross-sectional area of the holster.
