ABSTRACT:
PURPOSE: To indicate and develope letters or the like on paper, which could not be seen before, instantaneously with sound and light by a method
wherein comparatively sharp explosive or initiator, which shows different colors before and after the explosion of the same, is applied uniformly on a
substrate or the thickness of the explosive is changed respectively when shading in color developement.
CONSTITUTION: The emulsion of acetylene silver is obtained by mixing prepared silver acetylide with small amount of 2% gum arabic solution and
agitating it with a soft stirring rod. Letters or pictures are described on a paper with the emulsified dispersing liquid of silver acetylide and are
dried, then, electrodes are attached to the letters or pictures. The electrodes are connected to high- pressure electrodes and a switch is pushed to
generate spark discharge between the electrodes whereby the silver acetylide is initiated and exploded. All of the coating film of silver acetylide is
decomposed instantaneously with light and sound and becomes the particles of silver and carbon and become black, however, most of them keep a
condition that they are adhered to the paper. According to this method, black letters or pictures are developed on the paper.

ABSTRACT:
PURPOSE: To obtain a sparkler firework, capable of being used safely in an ordinary house and whose burning constituents are having low poisonous
property, by a method wherein the firework is provided with a nozzle having a specified inner diameter and is formed of a resin, consisting of burning
constituents of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen only and having adhesive property.
CONSTITUTION: 50% ethyl acetate solution of polyvinyl acetate, ammonium perchlorate powder and aluminum powder are added with small amount of acetate,
then, are mixed through agitation and, thereafter, solvent is evaporated whereby powder 1, containing proper clay, workable and having low poisonous
property, is prepared. About 3/4 of depth of a paper cylinder 6, whose bottom is formed of cement 2 and whose inside is made of ceramic paper 5, is
filled with proper amount of the powder 1. Next, the resistance body 3 of a solid resistor having 1 ohm 1/4 watt is embedded under the surface of the
powder 1, a leading part 4 is led out of the paper cylinder 6 to solder it to a lead wire 8 for ignition, the lead wire 8 is fixed to the outside of
the paper cylinder 6 with a paper tape 7 and, thereafter, the assembly is dried at the temperature of about 90°C whereby a sparkler having a nozzle
13, whose diameter is 1-1/2 of the inner diameter of the paper cylinder 6, can be obtained.

ABSTRACT:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for scattering and returning pulverized ashes back to the nature while keeping pride of the deceased and a
member suitable therefor.
SOLUTION: Ashes 2 of a deceased is set in a firework 4 which is then contained in a sktrocketing cylinder 8 constituting the main part of a
skyrocketing means through a skeyrocketing powder 9 and the skeyrocketing powder 9 is fired by means of a fuse 10. When the skeyrocketing powder 9 is
burnt, the firework 4 is skyrocketed from the sktrocketing cylinder 8 while being fired by a fuse 7 and eventually blasted when a powder 6 in the
firework 4 is fired. Consequently, the ashes 2 in the firework 4 are scattered into the air and eventually returned back to the earth after straying
through the sky. It is more effective to spray (skyrocket) the ashes deep in the mountains.

INT-CL (IPC): F42B004/00 , G09F013/20
ABSTRACT:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate waste collection after playing by storing light with a combustion accompanying a fireworks event of toy fireworks
and emitting light after the fireworks event has completed so as to increase interest and beauty of a fireworks play and elongating emission of light,
i.e., time of enjoyment for a longer time.
SOLUTION: A luminous member 1 for toy fireworks is an appropriate luminous member for toy fireworks mounted on an outer face of jetting fireworks 100
for toy and light is stored by emission of light accompanying fireworks event of the injection fireworks 100 for toy so that light is emitted after
the fireworks event has completed. The luminous member 1 for toy is made of a resin material mixed with a luminous material. The luminous material is
a material that continues emission of light by gradually converting energy stored by stimulation caused by light from outside into light, and a fine
powder of a pigment (ZnS:Cu) made by activating zinc sulfide with copper, a calcium sulfide (bismuth) pigment or the like can be used. As the resin
material, polycarbonate, an acryl resin or the like can be used.

ABSTRACT:
PURPOSE: To provide rocket fireworks in which a rocket firework can be visually pleased even at the time of sky rocketing and dropped rocket fireworks
can easily be searched.
CONSTITUTION: Toy fireworks have a suitable explosive filling a cylindrical casing 1 blocked at one end to fly by burning the explosive, and a luster
structure of luminous paint L provided partly or entirely at the casing 1 or an added member added to the casing 1. The site provided with the
structure is luminous, and at the time of flying, the contour of the rocket firework can be visually pleased. The dropping direction is observed, and
further since it is luminous even after it is dropped, it can be very easily served. Therefore, its later arrangement is easy, and collecting residue
is less.

Organikum, I saw that patent ! What's hilarious about it is that the USPO
actually put a patent number on it ! I won't reveal what it's about.
I suggest other members go look at this thing to get an idea of the
mindless idiots who run the U.S. government.
