BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to an inflatable decorative device for exhibition, and more particularly to an inflatable decorative device that shows a whole scene within the decorative device.

[0003] 2. Description of Related Art

[0004] Conventional decorative devices for exhibitions include some inflatable figures that are made of cloth sewn together to achieve particular figures (animals, special icons, cartoon characters etc) for enhancing attraction or for advertisement. When the inflatable figures are exhibited, air-injecting devices have to be connected with the inflatable figures so as to make the inflatable figures float or erect. Thereby, the inflatable figures are attractive.

[0005] However, the inflatable figures only show particular images respectively and are static. Therefore, if a scene having multiple characters is displayed in the exhibitions, many inflatable figures corresponding to the characters have to be prepared to perform the scene. Moreover, because the exhibitions of the inflatable figures are in an open environment, some special effects, such as blowing snow, can not be present in the open environment.

[0006] The present invention has arisen to mitigate or obviate the disadvantages of the conventional decorative device of the inflatable figures.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0007] The main objective of the present invention is to provide an inflatable decorative device that constructs a closed environment to present a whole scene completely.

[0008] Another main objective of the present invention is to provide an inflatable decorative device that further contains a snowing device

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the inflatable decorative device in accordance with the present invention comprises a base, a blowing device, a transparent cover, an optional spraying pipe, multiple inflatable models and optional plastic particles.

[0010] The base is composed of a top, a bottom, an inner wall and an outer wall formed between the top and the bottom, wherein the outer wall surrounds the inner wall to define an inner area inside the inner wall for receiving the blowing device and an intermediate area is defined between the inner wall and the outer wall.

[0011] The transparent cover is mounted on the base to provide a chamber.

[0012] The blowing device has two injecting tubes respectively communicating with the intermediate area and the chamber.

[0013] The optional spraying tube aligns with one of the injecting tubes in the blowing device and extends into the chamber within the transparent cover.

[0014] The multiple inflatable models are permeable, placed between the top of the base and the transparent cover, and communicated with the intermediate area, wherein the multiple inflatable models are communicated with each other to achieve an airflow route.

[0015] The optional plastic particles are stacked around the spraying tube near the injecting tube of the blowing device.

[0016] The inflatable decorative device has the closed chamber provided between the transparent cover and the base, therefore, the plastic particles are blown upward by the blowing device. Moreover, the inflatable models inflated inside the transparent cover also play parts of a scene in the inflatable decorative device. Therefore, the whole scene with multiple models and the optional appearance of snowing is achieved within the decorative device of the present invention.

[0017] Further benefits and advantages of the present invention will become apparent after a careful reading of the detailed description with appropriate references to the accompanying drawings.
