Abstract

Abstract A COLLAPSIBLE AND RESUABLE PINATA FOR USE AT PARTIES AND SIMILAR FESTIVE OCASSIONS. THE PINATA INCLUDES A PAIR OF FLEXIBLE LATERAL PANELS FRONT AND REAR ACCORDION PLEATED PANELS EXTENDING BETWEEN THE LATERAL PANELS, AND A FRANGIBLE BOTTOM PIECE WHICH IN COOPERATION WITH THE PANELS DEFINES A RECEPTABLE FOR THE CANDY, TOYS, OR THE LIKE HELD WITHIN THE PINATA. AN EXPANDIBLE FRAME, AS OF WIRE OR THE LIKE, IS MOUTED WITHIN THE ENCLOSED SPACE DEFINED BY PANELS AND BOTTOM ELEMENT, AND INCLUDES PORTIONS ENGAGING THE LATERAL PANELS. THE SAID FRAME WHEN EXPANDED, DISPLCES THE PINATA WALLS TO THEIR FULLY OPEN POSITION, SIMILARLY, COLLAPSING OF THE FRAME DRAWS THE WALLS INWARDLY TO COLLAPSE THE PINATA FOR STORAGE. THE PINATA INCLUDES MEANS FOR SUSPENDING THE DEVICE FROM AN OVERHEAD POINT, AND MEANS DEPENDING FROM THE FRANGIBLE BOTTOM FOR TEARING THE PIECE TO DISPENSE THE PINATA CONTENTS. THE BOTTOM PIECE IS SECURED TO THE ADJOINING WALLS BY MEANS WHICH ENABLE REPLACEMENT THEREOF SUBSEQUENT TO TEARING.
