Automatic paint ball gun
A paint ball gun has a gun body and a trigger assembly therein. The gun body has a first chamber, a second chamber and a tunnel between the first and the second chambers. A rod, a percussion member and a shaft are provided in the first chamber, the second chamber and the tunnel respectively. A rear block connects the rod and the percussion member. A valve is provided in the first chamber and activated by the rod. A controller is provided in the gun body, has a guiding channel to be manipulative for communication the first chamber and the tunnel and an exhausting channel to be manipulative for communication with the tunnel. The trigger assembly is manipulative to issue the gas in the first chamber to the second chamber for movement the shaft and to exhaust the gas in the tunnel after moving the shaft out.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a paint ball gun, and more particularly to a paint ball gun, which the percussion member is reciprocated repeatedly and automatically.
2. Description of the Related Art
The gun shoots the paint balls by high-pressure gas and some of the gas flows into the pump 64 to move the piston 641. To prevent the high-pressure gas from breaking the hose 66, a pressure adjuster 8 is provided to reduce the pressure. The pressure adjuster 8 increases the cost of the paint ball gun and a front block 67 is provided to mount the pressure adjuster 8, the valve 72 and the pump 64 on the gun, which increases the cost again.
The pump 64, the piston 641, the shaft 642 and the pressure adjuster 8 are exposed out of the gun without any shield for protection, they might be impacted unexpectedly. While the pump 64, the piston 641 or the shaft 642 is impacted and deformed, they cannot work normally anymore.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe primary objective of the present invention is to provide a paint ball gun, which is provided with a controller to control the gas issuing into the chamber to move the shaft for reciprocation of the percussion member automatically. The paint ball gun of the present invention has no the pressure adjuster, the front block and the hose that decrease the cost of the gun.
The secondary objective of the present invention is to provide a paint ball gun, which the controller is received in the gun. The shell of the gun shields the controller to prevent it from being impacted and deformed. The paint ball gun functions normally even when the shooter carrying the gun for a heavy excise.
According to the objectives of the present invention, a paint ball gun comprises a gun body with a handle and a trigger assembly installed in the handle. The gun body has a first chamber, a second chamber and a tunnel between the first chamber and the second chamber. A rod is provided in the first chamber, a percussion member is provided in the second chamber and a shaft is provided in the tunnel. A rear block connects the rod and the percussion member. A valve is provided in the first chamber and activated by the rod to issue gas into the second chamber. A controller is provided in the gun body associated with the first chamber and the tunnel. The controller has a guiding channel to be manipulative for communication the first chamber and the tunnel and an exhausting channel to be manipulative for communication with the tunnel. The trigger assembly is manipulative to issue the gas in the first chamber to the second chamber for movement the shaft and to exhaust the gas in the tunnel after moving the shaft out.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
As shown in FIGS. from
In the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first and the second chambers 11 and 12 are arranged in parallel in the gun body 1 and an aperture 13 is provided to connect the first and the second chambers 11 and 12. The valve 24 is mounted at between the first chamber 11 and the aperture 13. The rod 21 and the percussion device 2 are mounted in left ends (referring to
The controller 3 has a housing 31 and a chamber 311 in the housing 31. The housing 311 has two first bores 312 communicating the chamber 311 with the first chamber 11 and two second bores 313 communicating the tunnel 16. A guiding block 32 is received in the chamber 311 of the controller 3 for movement. The guiding block 32 has a guiding channel 321 therein and an annular exhausting channel 323 on a circumference thereof. The exhausting channel 323 is communicated with the second bores 313 of the housing 31 at a normal condition. A linkage 33 connects the guiding block 32 and the trigger 181 of the trigger assembly 18, so that the guiding block 32 moved by pulling of the trigger 181.

As shown in
The present invention provides the controller in the housing associated with the first chamber and the shaft to control the gas in the first chamber to move the shaft and to reciprocate the percussion member automatically. The paint ball gun is provided with no the hose, the pressure controller and the front block as the conventional paint ball gun has. It reduces the cost of manufacture and increases the competition in the present market.
The controller is installed in the housing to be protected thereby. In the action of shooting, the controller is not easy to be impacted that makes sure the paint ball gun having a correct function of shooting and elongates the product's life.
