  • Patent number: 5538457
    Abstract: The present invention is a toy water gun with turreted multiple water bomb launchers. By the attachment of the turreted multiple water bomb launchers with water bomb devices to a toy gun the present invention provides new functionality of the toy gun by being able to simulate multiple water "explosions". A turret with a plurality of water bomb devices attached is incrementally rotated so as to align each one of the individual water bomb devices with the release trigger. The water bomb device has a main housing with a frontward and rearward portion rotatably connected to one another and a passageway through both portions for receiving a shut off valve. The shut off valve is located within the housing and connected to both portions.

  • Patent number: 5531626
    Abstract: The present invention is a toy water bomb device with a main housing which includes an upper portion and a lower portion rotatably connected to one another and a passageway through both the upper and lower portions for receiving a shut off valve. The shut off valve is located within the housing and connected to both the upper and the lower portions and adapted so that when the upper and lower portions are rotated relative to one another, the shut off valve is moved from an open position to a closed position. There is a locking mechanism connected to one of the upper and lower portions, and releasably connected to the other portion such that rotation of the upper portion relative to the lower portion will move the shut off valve to a closed position and the locking mechanism may then be used to hold the shut off valve in its closed position until subsequently released. There is also an expandable bladder which is filled with liquid and expends liquid when the device is activated and the valve is opened.

  • Patent number: 5531627
    Abstract: The cartridge-type water bomb water gun conversion device utilizes a cartridge-type water bomb which can be used by itself to release a burst of water or be inserted into a water gun which can convert the cartridge-type water bomb into a reservoir of pressurized water for discharge through an orifice producing a "squirt" type release. The cartridge-type water bomb has an expandable bladder fixedly attached to frontward and rearward portions of a main housing which effect a shut off valve in a passageway when the frontward and rearward portions are rotated relative to one another. The water gun has a gun housing and a cocking and engaging lever which accepts the cartridge-type water bomb against a nesting section connected by way of an exit tube to a discharge orifice at a gun barrel end. The pressurized water in the expandable bladder may be released by pulling a pinch trigger.
