Abstract

An electrically blinking ‘Hula-Hoop’ is comprised of; 1) eight pieces of flexible tubes of transparent material, 2) eight pieces of the tube connectors, 3) a blinking lightning circuit comprised of one or two electric wires, plurality of LEDs connected to the electric wire, and one blinking connector that is activated by a liquid metal/metal ball positioned therein, 4) a power switch on a circuit board, 5) two ‘AAA’ size 1.5 Volt batteries. Any motion including a rotational motion of the ‘Hula-Hoop’ connects and disconnects the blinking connectors and enables the LEDs blinking constantly as the ‘Hula-Hoop’ rotates. The blinking connector is endurable to long and repeated rotational motion of the ‘Hula-Hoop’.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An electrically blinking hula-hoop that blinks due to any motion, including a rotational motion enduced by a user, is comprised of: 
 1) eight pieces of flexible tubes of light transmitting material, 2) eight pieces of the tube connectors, 3) a blinking lightening circuit comprised of one electric wire, plurality of LEDs connected in series to the electric wire, and one blinking connector that is comprised of a liquid metal/metal ball containing glass bulb having two sets of (+), (−) leads, each set locates at each end of the bulb, 4) a power switch on a circuit board, 5) two 1.5 Volt ‘AAA’ size batteries connected in series.    
   
   
       2 . An electrically blinking hula-hoop that blinks due to any motion, including a rotational motion enduced by a user, is comprised of: 
 1) eight pieces of flexible tubes of light transmitting material, 2) eight pieces of the tube connectors, 3) a blinking lightning circuit comprised of two electric wires, plurality of LEDs connected in parallel to the electric wires, and one blinking connector that is comprised of a liquid metal/metal ball containing glass bulb having two sets of (+), (−) leads, each set locates at each end of the bulb, 4) a power switch on the circuit board, 5) two 1.5 Volt ‘AAA’ size batteries connected in parallel.
