Abstract

An apparatus is provided for providing simulated smoke. The apparatus comprises a reservoir including a reservoir port, and a bladder disposed in the reservoir. The bladder can be deflated to cause a fluid substance to flow through the reservoir port into the reservoir to fill the reservoir with the fluid substance to generate smoke. The bladder can be inflated to cause smoke to flow out of the reservoir through the reservoir port to provide simulated smoke.
