A vent balloon, including an inflatable body operatively attached to a molded plastic base on a proximal side, wherein the inflatable body is inflated by a mechanism of an air vent or a fan operatively attached to the molded plastic base, and including a scent mechanism operatively attached to the molded plastic base for dispersing scent in a room that relates to a design on the inflatable body. A method of using a vent balloon by flowing air through an inflatable body of a vent balloon through a molded plastic base, wherein the air comes from a source of an air vent or a fan operatively attached to the molded plastic base, inflating the inflatable body, and flowing air over at least one scent mechanism operatively attached to the molded plastic base that relates to a design on the inflatable body and releasing scent into the air.

A balloon that can be illuminated from within, filled with propellant gas, and is capable of ascending has an interior space in which one or more light emitting diodes are located. The one or more light emitting diodes is or are connected or connectable via at least one cable or at least one contact with at least one energy source that is located outside of the interior space. The present disclosure also relates to a method of use of the balloon as a fan product or for illuminating restaurant gardens or parks, as an advertising medium, an advertising item, a lamp for interior and/or exterior areas, a signal balloon, a warning balloon, a signpost, an orientation aid, a navigation aid, an information sign, or a communication element.

An inflatable globe has a generally round shape and an attachment pin, plug or other closure mechanism coupled to the top of the inflatable globe. A topper is configured to fit over the attachment pin, plug or other closure mechanism. A hanger is threaded through the attachment pin, plug or closure mechanism and then through the topper. An electric light coupled to the plug is suspended inside the globe. The inflatable globe is made of a resilient polymer material and can be monochromatic or comprise a plurality of colors.

An illuminating toy with an attachable inflatable balloon. The toy includes a housing secured to a hollow shaft. The inflatable balloon is attachable around the hollow shaft. The balloon includes a sleeve, which extends around a connector secured around the shaft. This hollow sleeve is secured in place via a female and mated locking collar, which lock around the sleeve and the shaft securing the balloon in place. The shaft and the balloon both include LED strips secured therein, which are surrounded by prismatic reflectors.

A decorative light can include: a housing defining an interior space and having an open front; a cover mounted to the open front of the housing, the cover including a beam-splitter light lens shade and a substantially planar lens portion disposed around the beam-splitter light lens shade; a motor located in the interior space of the housing, the motor including an output shaft; a first light module located in the interior space and including first light units disposed about the output shaft of the motor, where the output shaft is rotatable with respect to the first light units; a second light module located in the interior space and including second light units disposed about the output shaft of the motor, wherein the output shaft is rotatable with respect to the second light units; and a rotating lens module connected to the output shaft of the motor for rotation.

An interactive toy is shown and described. The toy can be in the shape of a balloon animal, such as a dog, and react in a predetermined manner to user input or stimulus. More specifically, the balloon animal responds and reacts to the user input provided to specific locations on the balloon animal and/or to placement of an object in proximity to or in contact with the balloon animal.

A filling device may be used to fill a ball or other inflatable item from a water source such as a hose. A filling device may include an adapter having a cylindrical body with a hollow threaded interior, one closed end and one open end. A filling coupler is coupled to the one closed end of the cylindrical body. The one closed end of the cylindrical body has an opening formed therethrough and the filling coupler is coupled to the one closed end covering the opening. The filling coupler has a hollow threaded interior in fluid communication with the opening. A tip may be removably coupled to the filling coupler. The tip may be a ball inflation needle, a water balloon filling tip or the like.

A vent balloon, including an inflatable body operatively attached to a molded plastic base on a proximal side, wherein the inflatable body is inflated by a mechanism of an air vent or a fan operatively attached to the molded plastic base, and including a scent mechanism operatively attached to the molded plastic base for dispersing scent in a room that relates to a design on the inflatable body. A method of using a vent balloon by flowing air through an inflatable body of a vent balloon through a molded plastic base, wherein the air comes from a source of an air vent or a fan operatively attached to the molded plastic base, inflating the inflatable body, and flowing air over at least one scent mechanism operatively attached to the molded plastic base that relates to a design on the inflatable body and releasing scent into the air.

A decorative light can include: a housing defining an interior space and having an open front; a cover mounted to the open front of the housing, the cover including a beam-splitter light lens shade and a substantially planar lens portion disposed around the beam-splitter light lens shade; a motor located in the interior space of the housing, the motor including an output shaft; a first light module located in the interior space and including first light units disposed about the output shaft of the motor, where the output shaft is rotatable with respect to the first light units; a second light module located in the interior space and including second light units disposed about the output shaft of the motor, wherein the output shaft is rotatable with respect to the second light units; and a rotating lens module connected to the output shaft of the motor for rotation.

A lighted inflatable apparatus including: a wall comprising a first inflatable chamber; at least one lighting element disposed within the wall, the at least one lighting element configured to emit light; and a control box connected to the at least one lighting element, the control box configured to control one or more emission states of the at least one lighting element.
