The invention relates to set of building blocks including inflatable blocks; means for connecting the inflatable blocks and a valve for inflating or deflating the inflatable blocks. The means for connecting the inflatable blocks is magnetic strip which provide sufficient adhesive force for holding the blocks together.

The present invention relates to a filling container including a joint, where a side of the joint is provided with an inlet, another side of the joint is provided with a tube insertion cavity, and an inner end of the tube insertion cavity is connected to the inlet; a hollow tube bundle, including several hollow tubes, where an upper part of the hollow tube bundle is entirely inserted into the tube insertion cavity; a container, mounted at a lower end portion of a hollow tube by using an elastic fastener, where an inner cavity of the container is in communication with an inner passage of the hollow tube; and a holding mechanism, mounted on the joint at the tube insertion cavity, where the holding mechanism enables the tube insertion cavity to contract and hold the hollow tube bundle.

There is disclosed a balloon holder for holding a balloon having a tail and a tapered self-closing bladder. The balloon holder comprises a main body having a tail locking mechanism, an elongated member protruding from a bottom extremity of the main body, a support element configured to slide over the elongated member and be positioned on the main body, and a position adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the support element on the main body. In use, the tail of the balloon is secured to the main body by the tail locking mechanism and the support element is slid over the elongated member and positioned on the main body using the position adjustment mechanism so as to support the balloon in an upright position.

A balloon adaptor formed from a single piece body for receiving therein a balloon flange. The balloon adaptor has a one-way valve that is located between an inflating opening and a balloon insertion opening. The balloon insertion opening has a forwardly diverging conical surface and ends, in a rearward portion thereof, with a sharp shoulder. The balloon flange abuts against a shoulder abutment surface that holds the balloon attached to the balloon adaptor during inflation of the balloon. The present invention also discloses a balloon release mechanism for easily releasing the inflated balloon from the balloon adaptor.

An assembly for creating water balloons that directs water from a water source into a manifold. Filler straws extend from the manifold. Latex balloons are readied for filling by placing a neck plug into the necks of the balloons. Each neck plug has an elastomeric body that is sized to plug the neck of the balloon. A blind bore is formed into each of the neck plugs. The fill straws are advanced into the blind bores of the neck plugs. The filler straws are advanced deeper into the neck plugs, therein piercing the material of the neck plugs and eventually passing through the neck plugs. Due to the elastomeric material of the neck plugs, a watertight seal is formed around the filler straws. Water is advanced through the filler straws to fill the balloons.
