Apparatus and methods employing dual triggered feeding of projectiles from plural or multiple magazine clips with multiple interlock features in a rapid fire toy launcher employing a clips carriage mounted for translatable movement using a carriage selector separately positions clips in line for individual projectile feeding and launch. A propelling mechanism receives projectiles from an elongated projectile checking subassembly using a reversible projectile advancing feeder with a gear combination that advances and returns a pusher extension for feeding projectiles through the clips carriage upper portion. The reversible projectile advancing feeder is positioned in the housing forward the inserted magazine clips. Triggers including a propelling mechanism trigger activates a key and a fire key is activated with a fire trigger.

An auxiliary catapult device of a grenade contains: a throwing tube, a launch unit, and a trigger unit. The throwing tube includes an outlet, a shoulder, a throwing object, two slots, a through orifice, and a first connection portion, wherein the throwing object has a safety lever. The launch unit includes a piston, a first spring, a piston rod, and a pull bar, wherein the piston has a passing orifice, and the piston rod has a receiving orifice and an engagement portion. The trigger unit includes a seat, a button, two retainers, and two second springs, wherein the seat has an accommodating space, an opening, and a second connection portion. The second connection portion of the seat is connected with the first connection portion of the throwing tube. The button has a notch, and each retainer has a hook and a tilted contact portion.

A toy projectile launcher capable of launching a substantially large number of projectiles, for example, toy foam darts. To increase the number of projectiles that can be launched between reloadings, the projectiles are housed in a hopper. The hopper may include a movable rear wall which facilitates the loading of a large number of projectiles into the hopper at one time. A portion of a side wall of the hopper may be agitated to loosen the projectiles within the hopper so that they will drop into a firing chamber of the launcher more easily. A cover for the hopper may have a collapsible ceiling to prevent the projectiles from becoming improperly oriented in the hopper as they are being loosened by the agitated portion of the side wall of the hopper. A rotating track and a push rod may cooperate to advance projectiles from a firing chamber of the launcher.

A projectile launching device for hunting and target shooting includes a barrel and a driver. A carriage is slidably engaged to a guide rail, with a lower end of the carriage extending through a slot positioned in a bottom of the barrel and extending along the guide rail. The driver is attached to the carriage and extends along the bottom of the barrel toward an open end of the barrel. A pair of first arms is pivotally attached to the barrel proximate to a butt end of the barrel. Each first arm is operationally engaged to the driver distal from the carriage and can be pivoted by user to pivot to charge the driver, which is locked by a catch. A switch attached to the barrel can be switched to discharge the driver to propel a projectile from the barrel.

An apparatus includes two halves of a rail-to-rail coupler, wherein each half carries at least one rail engagement formation comprising at least two teeth separated by at least one notch to enable engagement with a portion of a rail associated with a toy gun that incorporates at least one rail stop; and at least one passage is formed through each half that aligns with the at least one passage formed through the other of the two halves to provide a dart storage position into which a dart may be inserted when the two halves are assembled together to engage a rail associated with a toy gun.

A ball-fetcher projection device including an elongated cylindrical barrel having an interior tube, a closed end, an open end, a lower rear surface, and a top surface. An interior guided track is disposed along a length of the interior tube of the cylindrical barrel, and a moveable spring-loaded firing ram has a front end and a back end. The moveable spring-loaded firing ram is mounted to the guided track along the interior tube of the cylindrical barrel. A ball is loaded within the cylindrical barrel. A moveable cocking mechanism is disposed on the front end of the firing ram and is engageable by a user. A handle has a trigger device mounted to the lower rear surface of the cylindrical barrel. The trigger device is engageable with the cocking mechanism.

The present invention is a toy projectile and launcher system. The lightweight projectile has an exterior surface symmetrically disposed about an imaginary longitudinal axis. The launcher has a holding cavity composed of three semi-flexible sides, two of which sides apply counter-acting forces to the surface of the projectile along the imaginary longitudinal axis. The launcher has a mechanism for applying a motive force perpendicular to the counter-acting force vectors and perpendicular to the projectile's imaginary longitudinal axis. When the motive force is applied to the projectile, the semi-flexible sides deform and return to pre-deformation positions, thereby launching the projectile into flight.

The present invention is a toy projectile and launcher system. The lightweight projectile has an exterior surface symmetrically disposed about an imaginary longitudinal axis. The launcher has planar leaves or holding pins, for receiving and holding the projectile. Within the launcher is a spring-loaded element that moves between cocked and released positions. The spring-loaded element contacts a first planar leaf or a first holding pin as the spring-loaded element moves from cocked to released position. Contact with the spring-loaded element causes the leaves or pins to pinch the projectile and launch the projectile into flight in a direction perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. In an alternate embodiment, rotational and linear velocities are imparted to a projectile by action of a ribbon held against the projectile's exterior surface by parallel members. Contact with the spring-loaded element causes the ribbon to translate along the length of said parallel members and into flight.

A rapid fire toy dart launch apparatus employing a feeding/anti-jamming mechanism including a simply yet unique continuous belt that penetrates a dart magazine releasing each dart from the magazine and simultaneously employing protrusion elements at the belt advancing each released dart into an energy generating mechanism for rapidly firing darts from the toy apparatus without mis-fed darts jamming up in the launcher.

The speargun for underwater fishing comprises a spear, a hollow hand grip having therewithin a retaining mechanism for retaining the spear, a snap trigger of the retaining mechanism for the release of the spear, a hollow barrel fixed to the hand grip, a terminal head fixed to the barrel and supporting at least one lateral pulley on which a rubber band for the propulsive thrust of the spear is wound, and a housing for engaging one end of the rubber band, formed in a single piece with a wall of the hand grip and located in a transversal geometric plane of the speargun which includes the axis of the barrel and cuts the speargun into an upper half-part and a lower half-part.
