Snow man making device for making a snow person having light emitting structures
View Patent ↗A ball is provided forming an inside structure of the snow person, the ball having an inner and outer surface. The ball is a unitary work piece that is free and unconnected to other work pieces. An adhesion surface is disposed on the outer surface of the ball, the adhesion surface provided with nodules that extend away from the surface of the ball to adhere snow while the ball is rolled. Light units are integrated into the surface of the ball and having light emitting portions that extend away from the surface of the ball. A light output of the light units is selected to transmit light through a layer of snow. Connections between the light units situated within the ball connect the light units together.
1. An apparatus for building a snow person, the apparatus comprising:
A ball forming an inside structure of the snow person, the ball having an inner and outer surface;
wherein the ball is a unitary work piece that is free and unconnected to the other work pieces, wherein the ball is composed of a rigid material that resists an impinging force, including a pressure exerted on the surface of the ball when rolled on the ground against a snow surface;
an adhesion surface disposed on the outer surface of the ball, the adhesion surface is provided on the outer surface of the ball to adhere snow to the ball while the ball is rolled; and
light units having light emitting portions that extend away from the outer surface of the ball;
wherein a light output of the light units is selected to transmit light through a layer of snow.
