The invention relates to a water gun, in particular to a toy water gun comprising a supply line, which is adapted to supply a pressurized liquid from a source, a nozzle arrangement for ejecting the liquid to the environment as well as a valve for controlling a flow of the liquid in a direction from the supply line to the nozzle arrangement. The water gun additionally includes a flow-smoothing device, with the valve arranged behind the flow-smoothing device with respect to the flow direction.

The invention relates to a toy for discharging a liquid. The toy comprises a discharging chamber adapted to receive a liquid from a liquid storage tank; an outlet arranged at the discharging chamber adapted to discharge at least some of the liquid received in the discharging chamber, the outlet being controllable by a covering mechanism movable between a closed position and an open position to thereby close and open the outlet, respectively; a movable member operably connected with the covering mechanism; wherein, in response to a triggering action of the toy, the movable member is movable from a first position to a second position thereby actuating the covering mechanism to move from the closed position to the open position, and at the same time, triggering discharge of the at least some of the liquid from the discharging chamber via the outlet.

A phone case can be configured to also function as a dispenser of pepper spray or another agent. The phone case can be configured to house a phone in a typical manner. Additionally, the phone case can house an agent dispensing assembly behind the phone so that it is hidden within the phone case. The agent dispensing assembly can include a trigger assembly that, when actuated, causes an agent to be sprayed from the phone case. The agent dispensing assembly may also include a key assembly that prevents the trigger assembly from being actuated unintentionally.

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 water gun, having a trigger control, provides repeated discharge of metered volume stream of water, uses a sealed chamber containing a refillable reservoir of water pressurized by compressed air. The pressurized water supply is connected to a tubular housing, which transports the stream of water to a second end of the tubular housing to a nozzle assembly. A trigger controlled valve which is connected to a trigger mechanism, having an operator controlled trigger, initiating the flow of the stream. The initiated stream is volumetrically metered and terminated by a shuttle valve, which terminates flow upon reaching a valve seat which decelerates the velocity of the shuttle before it contacts the valve seat, which reduces stress on the seal. A method of sequential resetting is provided to reset the trigger valve, trigger mechanism and shuttle valve, enabling a repeated metered discharge.

Systems and methods are disclosed for a fluid-based projectile launcher having a housing, that may also include a barrel portion, and a propellant fluid chamber. Disclosed embodiments also include a valve assembly that controls flow of propellant fluid from the propellant fluid chamber to the barrel portion through a fluid passageway, and an adjustable block assembly that controls motion and/or position of the valve assembly.

A phone case can be configured to also function as a dispenser of pepper spray or another agent. The phone case can be configured to house a phone in a typical manner. Additionally, the phone case can house an agent dispensing assembly behind the phone so that it is hidden within the phone case. The agent dispensing assembly can include a trigger assembly that, when actuated, causes an agent to be sprayed from the phone case. The agent dispensing assembly may also include a key assembly that prevents the trigger assembly from being actuated unintentionally.

A toy launcher having a telescopic barrel, a plunger element, and a compression spring that biases the plunger element against a rear wall of the telescopic barrel. When a cocking slide is moved from a forward position to a backward position, the plunger element partially compresses the compression spring against the rear wall of the telescopic barrel, while the plunger element couples to a trigger assembly. Fluid from a reservoir enters a fluid chamber formed by the plunger element and the front part of the telescopic barrel. When the cocking slide is moved from the backward position to the forward position, the rear part of the telescopic barrel fully compresses the compression spring. Fluid is expelled from the fluid chamber when the coupling between the plunger element and trigger assembly is released.

The invention relates to a device for controlling a liquid discharge from a toy gun, comprising: a chamber adapted to receive a pressurized liquid, the chamber comprising at least a first sub-chamber and a second sub-chamber, an outlet arranged at the chamber to enable a discharge of at least some of the pressurized liquid received in the chamber; a movable member movably arranged in the chamber; wherein the movable member is movable from a first position to a second position in response to a drop in liquid pressure in the first sub-chamber when compared to a liquid pressure in the second sub-chamber, wherein, at the first position, the movable member is arranged to close the outlet to thereby prevent liquid discharging from the chamber, and, at the second position, the movable member is arranged to open the outlet to thereby allow some of the pressurized liquid to discharge from the chamber. The invention also relates to a toy gun for discharging a liquid, comprising: a tank adapted to store a liquid; a nozzle adapted to discharge under pressure at least some of the liquid stored in the tank; and a conduit adapted to fluidly connect the above described device with the tank.

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.
