  • Publication number: 20140199913
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a toy gun capable of transmitting a laser beam and/or an infrared (“IR”) beam of light for use in a game. The toy gun also has a detector for detecting a laser and IR signal. A controller within the gun tracks the number of shots tired, the type of light beam fired, the number of hits received by other guns, and permits the user to alternate between firing an IR beam or laser beam. The toy gun also has unique features available through the use of lasers, including detecting the distance to a target. The present invention further relates to an interactive electronic targeting system for use with a toy laser gun. The targeting system includes an electronic multicolored backlit board with light detecting sensors positioned within the hoard. The targeting system is programmed with multiple interactive games for use with a toy gun.

  • Patent number: 8128454
    Abstract: A toy with a launcher to rotate and launch an object is described. Attached within housing, the launcher comprises a driving element to form a drive connection with a receiving element on the object. The launcher is connected with a launcher rotating system, which imparts a rotary movement to the launcher. An energy storing system is mounted inside the housing and drivingly connected with the launcher rotating system. The energy storing system is configured to store potential energy, where upon release, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy to actuate the launcher rotating system. Thus, user may use the toy to rotate and launch an object from the toy.

  • Patent number: 7677232
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a toy gun that is capable of firing multiple projectiles using an internal rotating firing assembly. The toy gun further provides a separate target launching mechanism to launch a target object into the air for use as a target when firing the projectiles. A plurality of projectiles is spring-loaded into a cartridge on a barrel of the gun, where they can then be sequentially fired from the gun in rapid succession by pulling a projectile trigger. The projectile trigger activates a rotating firing control disc inside the barrel of the gun to fire at least one projectile every time the projectile trigger is pulled. Additionally, the toy gun is capable of launching a flying object with a separate mechanism for use as a target when firing the projectiles.

  • Patent number: 7349153
    Abstract: Described is a toy weapon with a periscope suitable for allowing a user to view obstructed objects through the periscope. The toy weapon comprises a weapon-shaped body with a trigger attached with the body. A user may activate the trigger with a finger to shoot the toy weapon. The periscope is attached with the body. The periscope includes an eye piece and a viewing piece, formed to allow a user to point the viewing piece at an object and view the object through the eye piece. In a desired aspect, the toy weapon is a water gun. In this aspect, a pressurized tank is attached with the trigger and the body. A pressure pump is connected with the pressurized tank to allow a user to build up water pressure within the tank. Depressing the trigger causes water stored within the tank to be expelled from the tank toward an object.

  • Publication number: 20080026664
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a toy flying propeller with a sound-emitting device. The propeller includes a hub with a plurality of blades extending radially from the hub and having an outer edge. An outer ring is connected with the outer edge of the blades and circumferentially surrounds the plurality of propeller blades. At least one sound-emitting device such as a whistle is mounted to the toy flying propeller such that when the toy flying propeller is rotated and launched into the air, the movement of the toy flying propeller through the air causes the sound-emitting device to produce a sound. The toy flying propeller also includes a rotating device such as a launcher that connects with the hub to rotate and launch the toy flying propeller into the air.
