摘要： The manually-operated balloon stuffing device has a minimum number of parts and is inexpensive to manufacture. The device includes a manual pump consisting of inner and outer cylindrical tubes, and a check valve in each tube that permits the passage of air in only a single direction within its respective tube. In a first embodiment, a balloon stuffing item is placed in an end of the inner tube, and the open balloon end is stretched over that tube end. The outer tube is then reciprocated along the longitudinal axis of the inner tube to pump up the balloon. The outer tube is then removed and a push rod pushes the sliding check valve, which in turn pushes the stuffing item into the inflated balloon. In an alternate embodiment, a large hollow adapter tube is placed on the end of the inner tube, and the open end of the balloon is stretched over the open end of the adapter tube. After the balloon is inflated, a push rod pushes the sliding check valve, which in turn pushes an extension rod, the latter moving the stuffing item into the balloon. In yet a third embodiment, the need for a push rod and a slidable check valve is eliminated by using a connector between the tube in which the item is placed on the upper end of the inner tube. Once the balloon is inflated as before, the inner tube is pushed through the third hollow tube, thereby pushing the item into the balloon.

摘要翻译： 手动气囊填充装置具有最少数量的部件并且制造成本低廉。 该装置包括由内外圆柱管组成的手动泵和每个管中的止回阀，其允许在其相应管内仅沿单个方向通过空气。 在第一实施例中，将气球填充物放置在内管的一端中，并且打开的气囊端在该管端延伸。 然后，外管沿着内管的纵向轴线往复运动以泵送气囊。 然后拆下外管，推杆推动滑动止回阀，这又将填充物推入膨胀的气球中。 在替代实施例中，将大型中空适配管放置在内管的端部上，并且球囊的开口端在适配器管的开口端上被拉伸。 在气球膨胀之后，推杆推动滑动止回阀，其又推动延伸杆，后者将填充物移动到气球中。 在第三实施例中，通过在物品放置在内管的上端上的管之间使用连接器来消除对推杆和可滑动止回阀的需要。 一旦气囊如前所述膨胀，内管被推过第三中空管，从而将物品推入气球。

摘要： A side evacuating balloon inflater includes a lower shell, an upper shell, a collar insert, and a check valve. The lower shell is sealed to the upper shell with a gasket. A collar insert is slid into an inner diameter of a bore that is disposed on the top of the upper shell. A plurality of nubs are spaced around the collar insert. A balloon is stretched over the nubs and is retained thereby. A tapered boss surrounds the check valve which is disposed in the shell structure. The tapered boss facilitates the sealing of different size vacuum tubes to the shell structure. A household vacuum cleaner or a shop vacuum is used to pull a vacuum on the shell structure. The vacuum causes the balloon to stretch to the inside wall of the shell structure. The vacuum tube is removed and the check valve retains the vacuum inside the shell structure. Novelty items may be inserted into the mouth of the balloon; the balloon is then be sealed with a clip.

摘要翻译： 侧抽气球囊充气机包括下壳体，上壳体，套环插入件和止回阀。 下壳体用垫圈密封到上壳体。 轴环插入件滑入设置在上壳体的顶部上的孔的内径。 多个凸起围绕套环插入物间隔开。 一个气球被拉伸在结节上并被保留。 锥形凸台围绕设置在壳结构中的止回阀。 锥形凸台有助于将不同尺寸的真空管密封到壳体结构。 家用真空吸尘器或商店真空用于在壳体结构上拉真空。 真空使气囊伸展到壳体结构的内壁。 真空管被移除，止回阀将真空保持在壳体结构内。 新颖物品可能会插入气球的口中; 然后用夹子密封气球。

摘要： A method for forming candles according to the invention includes four basic steps: providing a candle core; heating a working area on the outer surface of the candle core such that the working area is pliable; sculpturing a portion of the working area; and reheating the working area with a readily available household heating implement whenever the working area of the candle falls below a desired temperature. A candle core is comprised of multiple inner layers of distinct color and composition, an outer surface preferably having a pliable temperature range of about 120 to 125.degree. Fahrenheit, and a wick extending from a top end and wound into a loop. Because the pliable temperature range of the candle core is relatively low, the candle core need only to be preheated by submerging it a in hot water bath prior to sculpturing. Additionally, the outer surface of the candle core may be reheated anytime during sculpturing using a hair dryer or other readily available household heating source. To facilitate the sculpturing and reheating steps, a sculpturing stand is provided from which the candle core may be suspended by engaging the wick loop with a hook on an elevated member of the sculpturing stand.

摘要翻译： 根据本发明的用于形成蜡烛的方法包括四个基本步骤：提供蜡烛芯; 加热蜡烛芯的外表面上的工作区域使得工作区域是柔韧的; 雕刻工作区的一部分; 并且每当蜡烛的工作区域低于期望的温度时，使用容易获得的家用加热器重新加热工作区域。 蜡烛芯由多个不同颜色和组成的内层组成，外表面优选具有约120至125华氏度的柔韧温度范围，以及从顶端延伸并缠绕成环的芯。 因为蜡烛芯的柔软温度范围相对较低，蜡烛芯只需要在雕刻之前将其浸入热水浴中进行预热。 此外，蜡烛芯的外表面可以在使用吹风机或其他容易获得的家用加热源进行雕刻时随时重新加热。 为了促进雕刻和再加热步骤，提供了一个雕刻架，通过将蜡芯与挂钩架挂在雕刻架的升高构件上，从而可以悬挂蜡烛芯。
