Water toy powered by replaceable, dissolving, gas emitting powder agent

Abstract

The present invention relates to a power driven toy for propelling the toy through a body of water having an upper toy for floating on the surface of water and a lower hollow capsule removably connected to the upper toy for submerging the capsule in a body of water. The capsule has an interior section for receiving therein a replaceable powder agent that dissolves in water, and a removable cover for opening and closing the capsule. The capsule also has first and second openings located at the two ends of the capsule for forming and transmitting streams of gas out of the two openings for propelling the upper toy on the surface of the body of water. The lower hollow capsule is removably connected to the upper toy by a rotatable connecter for attaching the capsule to the toy. The powder agent is a tablet that dissolves in water and produces carbon dioxide that is emitted through the openings of the capsule for propelling the toy through the body of water. The toy has the configuration of a duck, boat, car, or any other toy.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A power driven toy for propelling the toy through a body of water, comprising:
 (a) an upper toy for floating on the surface of water;   (b) a lower hollow capsule removably connected to said upper toy for submerging said capsule in a body of water, said capsule having an interior section for receiving therein a replaceable powder agent that dissolves in water, a removable cover for opening and closing said capsule, first and second openings located at the two ends of said capsule for forming and transmitting streams of gas out of said two openings for propelling said upper toy on the surface of said body of water; and   (c) said lower hollow capsule being removably connected to said upper toy by a rotatable connecter for attaching said capsule to said upper toy, wherein said rotatable connector has multiple pins around the periphery thereof for disconnecting said lower capsule from said upper toy.   
     
     
         2 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said powder agent dissolves in water and produces carbon dioxide that is emitted through said openings of said lower capsule for propelling said upper toy through said body of water. 
     
     
         3 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said powder agent is a bath salt tablet that dissolves when water enters said first and second openings of said capsule. 
     
     
         4 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said upper toy has the configuration of a duck, boat, car, or any other toy. 
     
     
         5 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said upper toy and said lower capsule are made of a material selected from a group consisting of expanded polystyrene or hollow plastic elements. 
     
     
         6 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said lower capsule has a cylindrical shape. 
     
     
         7 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 1 , wherein said lower capsule is connected to said rotatable connecter by a vertical connecting member. 
     
     
         8 . A power driven toy in accordance with  claim 7 , wherein said lower capsule, said rotatable connecter, and said vertical connecting member collectively have a T-shaped configuration.
