A toy water gun actuation mechanism for controlling opening of a valve with a base, a trigger, a coupling member being configured to be connected to the valve member and further comprising a movably supported blocking member with an abutment that enables to open and close the valve in a given period if the blocking member is in its blocking position and if the coupling member is in the first position, then the abutment is positioned in trajectory of the coupling member defined by a movement of the coupling member from the first position into the second position, whereas if the blocking member is in its non-blocking position, the abutment is located outside the trajectory being defined by the movement of the coupling member. Further a first elastic member is connected to the trigger and to the coupling member, wherein the potential energy being stored by the first elastic member is increased, if the trigger is moved from its released position towards its actuated position while the coupling member is maintained in its first position by the blocking member, and the trigger has a pusher dog configured to move and/or release a movement of the blocking member from the blocking position into its non-blocking position if the trigger is moved from its non-actuated position towards its actuated position.

If the blocking member is in its non-blocking position, the abutment is located outside the trajectory. A first elastic member is connected to the trigger and to the coupling member, The trigger has a pusher dog configured to move and/or release a movement of the blocking member into a non-blocking position.

An apparatus 100 such as a water gun for dispensing liquid is disclosed. The apparatus 100 comprises at least one liquid dispensing outlet and at least one chamber housing 102 defining at least one chamber for storing liquid to be dispensed through the liquid dispensing outlet. For replenishing with liquid in a fast and convenient manner, the chamber is designed to be substantially uniform in cross section. An opening through which the liquid is adapted to be received in the chamber is also substantially the same size as the cross-section of chamber. A lid 104 is provided that is pivotally movable between a closed position in which at least a portion of the opening is concealed by the lid 104 and an open position in which the at least a portion of the opening is revealed by the lid 104.

A toy water gun having a stream interrupter or interrupter valve that is configured to periodically interrupt a flow of water that is discharged such that periodic bursts of water are delivered in a rapid succession. In one arrangement, a nozzle recovery chamber is provided in a nozzle opening of the nozzle is located that is directed to discharge water through the nozzle recovery chamber along a discharge axis. The stream interrupter is located in the nozzle recovery chamber between the nozzle opening and the discharge opening and is configured to periodically interrupt a flow of water from the nozzle along the discharge axis to the discharge opening to form the periodic bursts of water that are delivered from the discharge opening. Blocked water in the recovery chamber is recycled back to the supply tank. Use of the interrupter valve provides for interrupted discharges from the nozzle.

A water intake system for a boat spray gun, including a system utilizing a port through a transom of a boat, the port positioned proximate to the bottom portion of the boat; a spray gun system; and a water intake system, comprising: a first water inlet tube having a proximal end connectable to a pump of the spray gun system and a distal end connectable to a swivel; a second water inlet tube having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end connectable to the swivel; a port connector connectable to the distal end of the second water inlet tube, the port connector having external threads threadingly engaging the port of the boat; and a water inlet conduit having a proximal end engageable with the port connector and a distal end positioned under the bottom portion of the boat.

A water gun refilling station for refilling a water gun includes a base positioned a predetermined distance above a ground surface. A fitting is attached to the base and is in fluid communication with a source of pressurized water. The fitting is selectively operated to be opened and closed. The water gun includes a water storage container. An attachment is connected to the water gun and is in fluid communication with the water storage container. The attachment may be selectively manually connected to the fitting. An air vent is operatively connected to the water storage container. Wherein when the attachment is manually connected to the fitting, the air vent is opened within the water storage container to enable a supply of pressurized water to quickly refill the water gun.

A liquid dispensing apparatus comprising a container portion, a receiver portion, and a grip portion. The container portion includes a first opening, a second opening, and a third opening. The first opening comprises a trap door valve. The second opening comprises a vent valve attached to a trigger located in the grip portion. The third opening is in liquid communication with a liquid ejection system.
