Abstract:
An inflatable article for a person to rest thereupon and which is capable of generating massage bubbles for the person when the inflatable article is immersed in water. The inflatable article is composed of at least three layers of PVC sheets which include a first layer of PVC sheet, a second layer of PVC sheet, and a third layer of PVC sheet. The first layer and the second layer are heat-sealed together at a plurality of upper joints so as to form at least one inflatable air chambers between the first layer and the second layer, with a plurality of upper and lower vent holes being, respectively, formed in those areas of the heat-bonded first layer and second layer other than the air chamber so as to communicate the water around the inflatable article with the region below the second layer. The second layer and the third layer are heat-sealed together at a plurality of lower joints so as to form at least one air passages which communicate with the water through the vent holes and are connected to an apparatus for supplying pressurized air so that pressurized air thereof may be fed through the air passage and the vent holes into the water to form bubbles in the water.
Abstract:
A floating hammock for a user to rest thereupon on the water of a swimming pool. The floating hammock comprises a sling for the user to lie his/her body thereupon; a headrest for the user to rest his/her head thereupon; a footrest for the user to rest his/her feet thereupon; and a pair of armrests for the user to rest his/her arms and hands thereupon. The headrest, the footrest, and the armrest are either inflatable or made of foam such that the floating hammock is capable of floating above the water. The user resting upon the floating hammock can immerse himself/herself further into the water by adjusting either the length of the armrests or that of the sling.
Abstract:
An inflatable umbrella includes an inflatable canopy member made of first upper and lower sheets and having a central portion, a plurality of elongated air compartments which extend radially from the central portion and which are spaced apart from each other, and a plurality of web portions spacing and interconnecting the elongated air compartments. A hollow shaft member being either rigid or inflatable is connected to the canopy member.
Abstract:
An inflatable pool comprises a base sheet and a hollow inflatable wall having its bottom end heat sealed to the edge of the base sheet. The wall includes a pair of first sheets sealed together at first seal seams forming a plurality of compartments, and a pair of second sheets sealed to the compartments at second seal means and also the top edges of the second sheets are sealed together forming the envelope of the wall. The construction of the wall of the inflatable pool is stronger and stiffer and the outer surfaces of the wall are flatter and smoother than that of conventional inflatable pools.
Abstract:
An inflatable toy comprises at least one external rotary assembly mounted outside the inflatable envelope and at least one internal movable object mounted inside the inflatable envelope. The external rotary assembly and the internal movable object are interconnected by a flexible hollow member which is heat-weldedly attached to the wall of the toy and has a closed end to which the external assembly and internal object are affixed. The internal object can be operated by an external means and the movement of the internal object is transmitted to the external rotary assembly. The rotary assembly is comprised of a rotatable part which is supported by an external supporting means attached to the wall of the envelope, and a rocking part attached to the closed end of the flexible hollow member.
Abstract:
A supplemental air pressure providing device adapted for use with an inflatable object includes an oscillator responsible for generating magnetic field and vibrating a casing, an air compressing device responsible for compressing air and noise silencer mounted inside the air compressing device for reducing noise generated while compressed air flows through the air compressing device for inflating the inflatable object.
Abstract:
An inflating module adapted to an inflatable object includes an air pump assembly selectively operable to deflate and inflate the inflatable object and a supplemental air pressure providing device automatically activated to provide supplemental air pressure to the inflatable object when the air pressure of the inflatable object is down and below a predetermined level so as to maintain air pressure of the inflatable object in a predetermined range.
Abstract:
An inflatable bed having a primary body, a backrest selectively inclinable relative to the primary body, a slit defined at a junction of the primary body and the backrest, and a pouch received in the slit to be selectively inflatable to move the backrest relative to the primary body. The slit is defined in a manner that when the pouch is inflated and the backrest is lifted by the pouch, friction of a bottom face of the backrest to a top face of ground where the inflatable bed is rested is minimized so as to facilitate the inclinable movement of the backrest relative to the primary body.
Abstract:
An inflatable bed includes a bedstead assembly, a mattress assembly, and an electrical air pump unit. The mattress assembly is disposed on and above the bedstead assembly, and includes a top sheet, a bottom sheet disposed under the top sheet, and a plurality of surrounding sheets interconnecting the top and bottom sheets to form a plurality of air chambers, which are not in fluid communication with each other. Each of the air chambers is defined among the top sheet, the bottom sheet, and a respective one of the surrounding sheets. The electrical air pump unit is disposed on the bedstead assembly, and is operable to inflate the air chambers individually so that air pressures in the air chambers may be different.
