Abstract
A toy package is partially submerged in liquid to cause the toy package to move from a closed configuration to an open configuration. The toy package includes a first portion supported by a second portion. At least one of the first portion and the second portion being movable relative to the other one of the first portion and the second portion from the closed configuration to the open configuration. A toy is disposed in the toy package. A buoyancy system assists the toy package to move from the closed configuration to the open configuration when the buoyancy system is submerged in the liquid. The toy package can further include a water soluble film sealing the first portion to the second portions.
Claims19
Toy packaging configured to be partially submerged in liquid to cause the toy packaging to move from a closed configuration to an open configuration, the toy packaging comprising:
- a first portion supported by a second portion, at least one of the first portion and the second portion being movable relative to the other one of the first portion and the second portion from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the first portion and the second portion defining a receptacle when in the closed configuration;
- a toy disposed in the receptacle at least when the toy packaging is in the closed configuration and at least partially submerged in the liquid;
- and
- a buoyancy system supported by at least one of the first portion and the second portion, the buoyancy system comprising a first gas chamber and a second gas chamber, the first gas chamber and the second gas chamber being configured to apply separate buoyancy forces to the first portion and the second portion, respectively, to assist the toy packaging to move from the closed configuration to the open configuration when the buoyancy system is submerged in the liquid.
Toy packaging configured to be partially submerged in liquid to cause the toy packaging to move from a closed configuration to an open configuration, the toy packaging comprising:
- a handle;
- a first portion rotatably coupled to the handle and movable from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the first portion having a first sealed gas chamber;
- and
- a second portion rotatably coupled to the handle and movable from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the second portion having a second sealed gas chamber,
- wherein the first portion and the second portion define a receptacle when in the closed configuration, and wherein the first sealed gas chamber and the second sealed gas chamber each create a buoyancy force applied to the first portion and the second portion, respectively, which assists the toy packaging to move from the closed configuration to the open configuration when the first sealed gas chamber and the second sealed gas chamber are submerged in the liquid.
Toy packaging configured to be partially submerged in liquid to cause the toy packaging to move from a closed configuration to an open configuration, the toy packaging comprising:
- a first portion movable from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the first portion having a first gas chamber;
- and
- a second portion rotatably coupled to the first portion and movable from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the second portion having a second gas chamber,
- wherein the first portion and the second portion define a receptacle when in the closed configuration, and wherein the first gas chamber and the second gas chamber each create a buoyancy force applied to the first portion and the second portion, respectively, which assists the toy packaging to move from the closed configuration to the open configuration.
Toy packaging configured to be partially submerged in liquid to cause the toy packaging to move from a closed configuration to an open configuration, the toy packaging comprising:
- a handle;
- a first portion rotatably coupled to the handle and movable from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the first portion having a first sealed gas chamber;
- a second portion rotatably coupled to the handle and movable from the closed configuration to the open configuration, the second portion having a second sealed gas chamber;
- and
- a film contacting both the first portion and the second portion when the toy packaging is in the closed configuration, the film being configured to dissolve when submerged in liquid,
- wherein the first portion and the second portion define a receptacle when in the closed configuration, and wherein the first sealed gas chamber and the second sealed gas chamber create a buoyancy force which assists the toy packaging to move from the closed configuration to the open configuration when the first sealed gas chamber and the second sealed gas chamber are submerged in the liquid.
