  • Publication number: 20190192989
    Abstract: The invention is a bubble making device for producing air bubbles from bubble solution, and contains a fan and a fan shroud for producing and channeling a stream of air through a dispensing ring into an ambient environment. Compression of a trigger or switch activates an electric circuit that energizes a motor that operates the fan and, in some embodiments, a pump. The pump delivers bubble solution to the dispensing ring, and a trigger or switch activated film producing mechanism attached to the air channel creates a film of bubble solution across the dispensing ring during interaction with an application bar. A separate internal sealed, waterproof, water resistant, and/or anti-corrosive container with external contacts serves as a battery compartment for containment of removably-insertable batteries. The invention can comprise of LED lights, a lighting system, sound producing device, sound producing system, speaker system and/or connection jack or device to connect to a smart device.
