11933577 · 2024-03-19 ·

A water balloon cannon including a barrel with a bore diameter designed to receive a water balloon. The barrel extends between a muzzle and a rear portion, where the rear portion defines a compressed air port and a water port. The water balloon cannon further includes a water valve for introducing a volume of water through the water port into the rear portion of the bore diameter, and an air valve for introducing a flow of compressed air through the compressed air port into the rear portion of the bore diameter. The volume of water is designed to act as a buffer between the flow of compressed air and the water balloon positioned within the bore diameter.

Toy firearm incorporating a replaceable cartridge with BB bullets

A toy firearm includes: a hollow firearm body; a cartridge module separably coupled in front of the firearm body to store a plurality of BB bullets to be fired; a gas discharge module to supply introduced gas to the BB bullets stored in the cartridge module by sequential control using a solenoid valve; an electrical sound module electrically connected to the gas discharge module to generate an electrical high voltage sound for a predetermined time with respect to a point in time of firing the BB bullets stored in the cartridge module; and a gas tank disposed in a grip of the firearm body to temporarily store the gas and supply the stored gas to the gas discharge module, wherein the cartridge module includes a pair of barrels arranged side by side at a predetermined angle along front and rear sides.

Projectile loader drive system

The present invention is directed to a ball feed mechanism and associated method for use in a paintball loader. The ball feed mechanism includes a feeder which conveys or impels balls toward a feed neck, and a drive member which is concentric with the feeder. The feeder is coupled to the drive member. An electric motor is used to rotate the drive member which in turn causes the feeder to rotate. The feed mechanism includes sensors which detect the motion of the feeder and the drive member. A controller determines the position of the feeder relative to the drive member and actuates a motor when necessary.

The invention relates to magazine for a toy gun, comprising: a housing having an elongated first housing portion and a cylindrical second housing portion which together define a passageway for receiving a plurality of projectiles; the first housing portion being configured for accommodating received projectiles in a substantially linear part of said passageway, and the second housing portion being configured for accommodating the received projectiles in a substantially circular part of said passageway extending about a central axis of the second housing portion; a discharge opening for discharging said received projectiles; and a resilient member arranged centrally of the second housing portion, wherein said resilient member is adapted to apply a torsional force to move said received projectiles from the circular part to the linear part of the passageway. The invention also relates to a toy gun having the magazine as described.

Toy gun with moveable magazines

The invention relates to a toy gun having a barrel; a projectile launching mechanism arranged in a body of the gun for launching a projectile from the gun via the barrel; a plurality of magazines each of which is adapted to accommodate a plurality of projectiles; wherein the plurality of magazines are each arranged to move in turn to a projectile loading position to thereby align a projectile with the barrel for launching by the projectile launching mechanism.

Shock-absorption device of piston mechanism in simulation gun
10458744 · 2019-10-29 · ·

A simulation gun in which an air current is ejected by an operation of a piston mechanism portion to fire a bullet, a piston stop which is movable relative to a piston mechanism portion is provided, the piston stop is attached to one constituent member of the piston mechanism portion to absorb an impact force accompanying the operation of the piston mechanism portion, and shock-absorption means is provided between the piston stop and the other constituent member of the piston mechanism portion.

Paintball conveying device
10443969 · 2019-10-15 ·

A paintball conveying device includes a conveying chamber having one side formed with a paintball outlet. The conveying chamber includes a conveying member for conveying paintballs. A power unit includes a knob that unidirectionally drives a wheel to rotate. The wheel is connected with a spiral torsion spring configured to provide kinetic energy for rotating the wheel reversely. The wheel unidirectionally drives a big gear to rotate when rotated reversely. The big gear is meshed with a pinion gear adapted for synchronously linking a resistance gear and the conveying member to rotate. When the wheel is driven to rotate reversely by the spiral torsion spring, the conveying member is synchronously rotated to convey the paintballs. At least one resistance member is pivotally connect to one side of the resistance gear to move back and forth for leaning against the resistance gear, thereby supplying resistance when the conveying member is rotated.

Modular gun housing

A modular gun housing assembly is provided having a barrel body, a frame and a handle. The barrel body houses a firing bolt, a bolt spring and an air chamber. The frame has a cutaway to receive the barrel body and align the frame with the barrel body. The frame also has a bottom wall with a plurality of tabs extending therefrom to align the handle thereto. The frame is removably secured to the barrel body with a plurality of fasteners, and the handle is removably secured to the frame with a plurality of fasteners. The handle also has a plurality of mating receivers to engage and mate with the plurality of tabs extending from the frame. The handle also has a grip portion with a cavity to receive at least one of a projectile and a propellant container.
