A dedicated midair balloon-popping game apparatus is used by attaching to a drone that can be remotely controlled. The midair balloon-popping game apparatus includes: a container, which includes an attachment portion for attachment to the drone, and is capable of accommodating a balloon in an inflated state; a pressed portion which is provided on an outer side of the container; a balloon-popping member which acts to pop the balloon inside the container when the pressed portion is pressed; and a pressing portion configured to collide with a pressed portion of a midair balloon-popping game apparatus of another player.

The present disclosure provides a lighting device for use with inflatable products, such as balloons. Specifically, the lighting device may be configured to utilize external audio to produce a pattern of light corresponding with the external audio. The lighting device is able to couple to a balloon to light up the interior of the balloon without the significant loss of gas or other inflating fluid from the balloon.

Apparatus and method of inflating, sealing and deflating an inflatable body including a support structure with an opening, a piece with a hole from one end to the other end, the inflatable body is secured to the support structure with an opening and the piece with a hole from one end to the other end, and the piece with a hole from one end to the other end is secured to the support structure with an opening creating an air passageway channel to inflate, seal and deflate an inflatable body. The apparatus and method can be used to inflate, seal and deflate an inflatable body when the neck or opening portion of the inflatable body is inaccessible or unexposed as well as when the neck or opening portion of the inflatable body is accessible and exposed.

A room installation is provided having at least three walls, a ceiling and floor, all of which are covered in a mirrored surface. At least one transparent window allows ambient light into the room installation. A plurality of mirrored balloons are arranged within the room installation, and filled with helium, but otherwise weighted, to float substantially within a middle height of the room installation.

The present invention is directed to an adjustable weighted balloon handle that allows for a balloon to levitate an intermediate distance off the ground. The adjustable weighted balloon handle includes a plurality of strips having a plurality of perforations creating tabs, wherein the tabs may be removed to adjust the weight of the handle. The adjustable weighted balloon handle may solve a number of problems currently associated with helium and other lighter-than-air balloons. Namely, the adjustable weighted balloon handle may allow a user to levitate a balloon off the ground and not force the user to tether the balloon to a surface.

A room installation is provided having at least three walls, a ceiling and floor, all of which are covered in a mirrored surface. At least one transparent window allows ambient light into the room installation. A plurality of mirrored balloons are arranged within the room installation, and filled with helium, but otherwise weighted, to float substantially within a middle height of the room installation.

In a method embodiment, an example method for simultaneously filling balloons with water, using an apparatus sufficiently compact to be operated while being held by hand, is disclosed. The method includes attaching the apparatus to a water supply. The apparatus includes a fitting comprising an inlet configured to connect to the water supply and a bulkhead joining the at least three branch assemblies. Each branch assembly includes a tube and an automatically-sealing balloon with a neck disposed around and removably attached to the tube. The method further includes simultaneously providing water from the attached water supply to each balloon of the balloon-filling apparatus. The method further includes detaching one or more of the balloons from the balloon-filling apparatus using a force comprising gravity each detached balloon and the water contained therein. Each detached balloon automatically seals upon detachment.

A helium balloon harness assembly includes a net that is comprised of a plurality of interlocking members. The interlocking members are arranged to curve outwardly from a central axis of the net such that the net has a bulbous shape thereby facilitating the net to accommodate a helium balloon such that the net is lifted by the helium balloon. A harness is coupled to and extends downwardly from the net and a basket is coupled to the harness such that the basket is spaced downwardly from the net. A plurality of figurines is provided and each of the figurines has an equal weight with respect to each other. A selected number of the figurines is positionable in the basket to determine the lift force of the helium balloon.

There is provided a balloon holder having an elongate handle and a balloon-receiving portion. The balloon-receiving portion has a first aperture adapted to permit a neck of a balloon to pass through, and at least one slit for receiving and securely engaging a neck of a balloon. The elongate handle and balloon-receiving portion are folded from a single sheet of material, and the elongate handle comprises two plies of the single sheet of material.

In a method embodiment, an example method for simultaneously filling balloons with water, using an apparatus sufficiently compact to be operated while being held by hand, is disclosed. The method includes attaching the apparatus to a water supply. The method further includes simultaneously providing water from the attached water supply to a plurality of balloons removably attached to the apparatus, such that each balloon contains water. The method further includes simultaneously detaching from the apparatus the plurality of balloons, with each balloon having water from the water supply provided therein and each balloon automatically sealing upon detachment.
