Reusable bath bomb vessel
View Patent ↗A submersible vessel which can act as a reusable bath bomb delivery system is provided. The vessel may include a housing and an opening port. The interior of the housing and ports form a chamber, which can be segmented into multiple sub-chambers. Inlet one-way valve(s) and outlet one-way valve(s) are provided on the vessel. To use, the chamber is partially filled with a mixture including an effervescent material. When water is introduced through the inlet valve, it reacts with the effervescent material, releasing carbon dioxide and dissolving the other ingredients in the mixture, building pressure in the chamber. When the pressure builds to a certain level, the inlet valve(s) are closed, and the outlet valve(s) are opened. The outlet valves may be positioned such that when the fluid and gas is expelled, the force generated may cause the vessel to spin or be propelled in the bath.
1. A submersible vessel for delivery of bath products comprising:
a housing;
a resealable opening port, wherein an interior of the housing and an interior of the resealable opening port comprise an empty chamber, the resealable opening port configured to be sealed in a sealed configuration;
an influx hole, said influx hole including an inlet one-way valve configured to permit fluid flow into the chamber, said inlet one-way valve having a first pressure threshold configured to accept water from a container of water into the chamber when the vessel is submerged in the container of water and the opening port is in the sealed configuration and a second pressure threshold configured to close the inlet one-way valve at a pressure corresponding to a first internal pressure generated by a chemical reaction between the water accepted into the chamber and an effervescent material in the chamber when the opening port is in the sealed configuration; and
a plurality of outflux holes, each of said outflux holes including an outlet one-way valve having a pressure threshold configured to permit fluid to be ejected out of the chamber at a pressure corresponding to a second internal pressure generated by the chemical reaction between the water accepted into the chamber and the effervescent material in the chamber when the opening port is in the sealed configuration, the plurality of outflux holes situated on the housing in a configuration to cause the housing to spin when fluid is ejected out of the chamber through said outlet one-way values,
wherein in the sealed configuration said water from the container can only enter the chamber through the inlet one-way valve,
wherein the second internal pressure is greater than the first internal pressure, and
wherein the resealable opening port includes a removable lid adapted to cover the opening port, the lid including the influx hole and said inlet one-way valve.
2. The submersible vessel of claim 1 , wherein the housing and the resealable opening port comprise a transparent material.
3. The submersible vessel of claim 1 , wherein the inlet one-way valve comprises a diagram check valve, and
wherein the outlet one-way valve of each the plurality of outflux holes comprise diaphragm check valves.
4. The submersible vessel of claim 1 , wherein a volume of the chamber is less than four litres.
5. The submersible vessel of claim 1 , wherein said plurality of outflux holes comprises three outlet ports.
6. The submersible vessel of claim 1 , wherein said plurality of outflux holes are spaced about the housing.
7. The submersible vessel of claim 1 , wherein the chamber is configured to eject a different colored fluid out of each of the plurality of outflux holes.
