  • Patent number: 7770570
    Abstract: A paint ball gun includes a ball receiving member rotatably received in the top tube of the paint ball gun and the ball receiving member includes a space defined therein which communicates with a receiving hole so that paint balls drop into the space via the receiving hole. The ball receiving member is connected with a rotary unit which is controlled by operation of the trigger powered by a power unit which introduces pressurized air to activate the rotary unit which rotates the ball receiving member. The receiving hole communicates with a hopper to receive a paint ball and pressurized air cannot enter into the ball receiving member when the ball receiving member is in the first position. The receiving hole is sealed and pressurized air enters into the ball receiving member to shoot the paint ball when the ball receiving member is in the second position.

  • Patent number: 7770572
    Abstract: A paint ball gun includes a frame defining a frame bore therein and a valve located below the frame. The valve communicates with a first path which communicates with the barrel. A bolt and a strike rod are received in the frame bore. The valve guides pressurized air to the rear end of the strike rod to move the strike rod to push the bolt which has a central passage.

  • Patent number: 7712464
    Abstract: A valve for paint ball guns includes a case for receiving a first piston rod therein in which a first end of a second piston rod is movably received. The case includes several chambers defined therein so as to introduce pressurized air into the barrel of the paint ball gun. The first piston rod includes two piston rings and one of which is larger than the other. The first piston rod is biased by a first spring. The first end of the second piston rod in the first piston rod is biased by a second spring which is easily overcome by pushing the second piston rod by a driving member. The movement of the second piston rod introduces pressurized air to apply to the piston ring of larger area to generate a force to overcome the force from the first spring and the piston ring of the smaller area.

  • Publication number: 20090308371
    Abstract: A paint ball gun includes a barrel connected with a handle and a drop hole and an aperture are defined through a wall of the barrel. Paint balls can be supplied into the barrel via the drop hole. A linear motor is located in the barrel and drives a retractable driving rod which is connected to a push unit located in the barrel. An inlet is defined through a wall of the push unit and the inlet is moved with the push unit between a first position and a second position, the inlet is moved to the first position where the aperture is sealed and the paint ball enters the barrel. When the inlet is moved to the second position, the inlet is in communication with the aperture so that the paint ball is pushed by pressurized air introduced into the barrel via the aperture and the inlet.

  • Patent number: 7628148
    Abstract: A shooting mechanism of a paint ball gun includes a valve located in the air tube of the gun and the valve is composed of a first member and a second member. A piston rod movably extends through the valve. The first member includes a shoulder extends radially and inward from an inner periphery of the first member. An aperture is defined in communication between the shoot tube located above the air tube and the first member. A piston head is connected to an end of the piston rod and removably seals the space, the other end of the piston rod is hit the strike rod. A flange extends radially outward from the piston rod and located between the shoulder and an inner end of the second member. The flange can be stopped by the shoulder of the first member when the piston rod is hit by the strike rod.
