Ornamental sound module for a balloon
View Patent ↗An ornamental sound music module for a balloon has an ornamental suitably raised face with a peripheral lip or flange. A backer board is adhered to the rear of the ornamental face creating a housing. A central aperture is within the backer board with an annular support rim for supporting the outer disc portion of a piezoelectric buzzer in a firm manner to encourage the central regions of the buzzer to generate optimum music. A circuit board is contained within the housing and is connected to the buzzer by wires. The backer board suitably has an adhesive to allow the ornamental sound module to be affixed to a metalized nylon film balloon.
1. An ornamental sound module for a balloon, comprising:
(a) a housing, wherein the housing further comprises a front portion and a backer board secured to the front portion, wherein the front portion further comprises a raised ornamental portion having a first peripheral flange there-around and wherein the backer board further comprises a raised ornamental second portion having a second peripheral flange there-around, the first peripheral flange and the second peripheral flange being joined together to create the housing;
(b) a face on the backer board with an adhesive thereon adaptable to adhere the face to the balloon;
(c) a buzzer aperture in the housing, further comprising a support rim;
(d) a piezoelectric buzzer supported on the support rim; and
(e) a circuit board within the housing, the circuit board further comprising a sound chip, a switch, a battery, and wiring connecting the circuit board to the piezoelectric buzzer.
2. The ornamental sound module of claim 1 , wherein the front portion is comprised of a plastic.
3. The ornamental sound module of claim 1 , wherein the backer board further comprises plastic foam.
4. The ornamental sound module of claim 1 , wherein the first peripheral flange is secured to the backer board's second peripheral flange.
5. The ornamental sound module of claim 4 , wherein the first peripheral flange is adhered to the second peripheral flange.
6. The ornamental sound module of claim 1 , wherein the backer board further comprises a recess supporting a plastic spacer adhered thereto.
7. The ornamental sound module of claim 6 , wherein the piezoelectric buzzer is adhered to the plastic spacer.
8. The ornamental sound module of claim 1 , wherein the piezoelectric buzzer further comprises a metal disc having a peripheral edge there-around.
9. The ornamental sound module of claim 8 , further comprising smaller plates affixed to opposite sides of the metal disc and connected by wiring to the circuit board.
10. The ornamental sound module of claim 1 , further comprising a film removably applied to the adhesive.
