The internal structure, variable depth, and duration of the dips observed in the low mass X-ray binary 4U1755-33 are suggested to be the result of the partial occultation of an extended source by the oscillating bulge of the accretion disk. The disk oscillations in question may be present in other low mass X-ray binaries containing disks with thick rims or bulges; their observability would depend on the inclination of the system.
