Bubble shoes

A pair of shoes or sneakers having two one-way valves, a bubble solution filled reservoir with replaceable cartridges and an on-off switch, is provided. Each of the shoes or sneakers generates bubbles which come out of the back of the footwear. These bubbles are formed by pumping action generated by walking. The footwear may be used with the bubble valve off or on, so when bubbles are not desired, the valve can be turned off. The shoe may be used for walking with the exit valve in the “Off” or “On” position.

Description

This application claims priority to Provisional Application # 62/070,428 filed on Aug. 25, 2014.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

We were talking about bubbles and thought it would be fun to have shoes that have bubbles coming out of them when you walk.

SUMMARY

This footwear includes two items of footwear, for example, sneakers, that have a valve which allows air to enter a reservoir containing a cartridge filled with bubble solution, which pumps through an exit valve and creates bubbles created by the pressure of one's weight while walking and wearing this footwear.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING

The top drawing shows a cutaway of the rear view of the footwear and valves. The bottom drawing shows a side view of the footwear, including the on-off switch.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The top drawing is of rear view of footwear. It shows that the air enters via the one way valve on the inner back side of the left shoe and travels through the bubble liquid. Air is sucked into this part of the shoe by the pumping action from walking on the footwear. The bubbles travel out of the one way valve on the opposite side of the footwear near the on-off valve.

Claims

1. An article consisting of footwear:

a. two separate articles of said footwear worn by an individual, one on right foot, one on left, that will produce bubbles from pressure by pumping action generated by walking while wearing said footwear,
b. a one way valve located on right rear side of said left footwear and left rear side of said right footwear through which air is pumped and enters a reservoir,
c. reservoir housing a replaceable cartridge containing bubble solution, located on back center side of both said left and right footwear,
d. a second one way valve located on back left side of said left footwear and back right side of said right footwear through which air is pumped, and
e. an on and off Valve located on left rear side of said left footwear and on right rear side of said right footwear.
