  • Patent number: 11826670
    Abstract: A bubble generating assembly has a housing shaped as an animal. The housing is made up of an upper housing section and a lower housing section that define an interior space, the upper housing having a front edge and a rear edge, a bubble opening positioned adjacent the front edge, and a bubble inlet positioned adjacent the rear edge. The lower housing section has a front piece with a transparent or open section, such that a bubble solution reservoir is positioned in the interior space adjacent the transparent or open section such that the contents of the bubble solution reservoir are visible from outside the housing. A bubble generator is positioned adjacent the upper housing section and generates bubbles that are emitted through the bubble opening. A plurality of legs is positioned below the lower housing section, and extend outside the width of the housing.

  • Patent number: 11458411
    Abstract: A bubble machine has a fan housing that is positioned inside a machine housing, and a fan coupled to the fan housing. A bubble dispenser is disposed over the machine housing and has an outer wall that defines a trough along a portion of its circumferential edge. The bubble dispenser includes an inner hub having a raised platform, and a bubble wand guiding mechanism on the platform. The outer wall and the inner hub define at least one space through which air generated by the fan can flow upwardly. A bubble wand assembly has a base, and a plurality of bubble wands that are disposed above the bubble dispenser in a manner such that each of the plurality of bubble wands is rotated past the trough to be coated with bubble solution, and then rotated over the at least one space so that air from below can be blown through the bubble wand to generate bubbles.

  • Patent number: 10434434
    Abstract: A bubble generating device has a bubble generating assembly positioned adjacent a front opening. The bubble generating assembly has a support frame having a stationary wiping element, and a plurality of bubble wands coupled to the support frame for rotation in a manner where each of the plurality of bubble wands individually wipes across the wiping element at the location of the opening. A motor is positioned inside the housing and has a fan that is directed to blow air towards the front opening. Bubble solution is delivered from a container to the wiping element. A link assembly couples the motor and the support ring in a manner in which actuation of the trigger causes the support ring to be rotated so that each of the plurality of bubble wands is wiped across the wiping element and then positioned in front of the fan to receive air blown by the fan.
