"Well, you know one of those little Spring Suction Cup things that you push down and you never know when it's gonna pop up in the air?"
Phineas[src]

The Spring Suction Cup is a jumping toy built by Phineas and Ferb for some random up-and-down fun.

History[]

Phineas and Ferb present their giant spring toy to Isabella, Buford, and Baljeet. Excited to try it out, everyone boards the invention while Candace watches. Inside, Isabella wonders when it is going to pop, prompting Phineas to remind her that there is no way to accurately know. Shortly thereafter, it takes off as the latter utters one of his catchphrases.

The kids soon come back to the ground, wanting to do it again. The boys oblige to their request, resetting the machine to wait once more. Later, Candace awakens from her hypnotized state, returning to her busting urge. This leads her back into the house to get her mom. As she awaits her parent, her brothers offer her a ride, which she declines. Linda then sees the boys' creation as it launches, but is repeatedly hit by a forgetting ray, causing her to ultimately miss it ("A Real Boy").

Design[]

The Spring Suction Cup is a device consisting of a white circular base, a grey spring, and a red suction cup with a black bell-shaped bottom, a transparent canopy, and five brown chairs inside.

Mechanics[]

The Spring Suction Cup utilizes the adhesive properties of suction cups coupled with the spring's elasticity to create an unpredictable bouncing pattern. This is due to the two contrasting forces, the sucking fluid pressure and the elastic work, which clash with each other until the latter overtakes the former, enabling the detachment of the toy from the surface.

Background Information[]

  • Phineas describes their creation as one of the "spring suction cup things", as he does not know its actual name, nor do the others. This is a joke on the fact that these toys do not have a proper name, being most oftenly labeled as "jumping toys".
  • Counting the off-screen portions, the invention is seen taking off three times, two of which being witnessed by Linda.
