ABSTRACT:
A toy for mounting onto a handle bar of a bicycle, tricycle or the like, that, when the bicycle is moved to pass an air flow therethrough creates a stream of soap bubbles. The toy includes a double clamp mount for fitting to the bicycle handle bar and whereto a mounting rod end for mounting the toy off-set from the side of a bicycle operator is maintained, with the opposite mounting rod end for mounting to a bubble generation assembly that includes a reservoir housing for containing a water and soap solution. The reservoir housing incorporates an upright standard whereto a propeller or rotor that has a plurality of spaced blades secured at equidistant intervals around a spindle is mounted to turn in the air stream in front of a slot that has been formed along a reservoir housing top edge. A bar is secured to extend from a trailing edge of each of the propeller or rotor blades that in turn, individually mount a bubble ring across an the end thereof. Each bubble ring travels as the propeller or rotor turns, into and through the reservoir interior that contains a water and soap solution, applying a soap film across the ring that, with continued propeller or rotor turning, travels into the air stream. The exposure of the soap film covered ring to the air stream produces a soap bubble or series of bubbles flowing from each bubble ring.
