  • Patent number: 4248436
    Abstract: An amusement device has a supporting base with a central division wall. The division wall has an opening therein over which a simulated aircraft with bomb bay door or the like is disposed, and a housing is positioned behind the opening. A bubble pipe is disposed behind the simulated aircraft with its bowl inverted so that bubbles emitted therefrom appear to originate in the aircraft bomb bay. A tube is connected operatively to the bubble pipe, and has an end extending to the operators' position on the supporting base. At such position, a water pistol is mounted on a bracket, so that a water stream directed therefrom may be employed to attempt to strike the bubble. A catch is positioned on the supporting base below the opening and within the housing wherein expended fluid is collected for disposal or for re-use. Side flanges on the housing aid in the prevention of spillage.
