Abstract: A cartridge box of a pneumatic toy gun includes an air lock system and a struck element disposed on the upper inside the case of the cartridge box, and further includes a control system having a pushing rod and a resisting rod, wherein a front end of the pushing rod extends into the bullet-out passage disposed inside the case. When there is no bullet in the bullet-out passage, a lateral end of the stripping rod resists upward against the front end of the pushing rod to make the back end of the resisting rod moving downward to resist against the resisting portion of the struck element, resulting that the struck element cannot push the air lock system forward. Thereby, when there is no bullet in the cartridge box, even if the trigger is pressed, the air lock system cannot moves to push the bolt. Hence, firing without bullet will be avoided and the effects of the simulate gun would be achieved.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for feeding ball-like ammunition, so-called paint balls, into the projectile chamber of a sporting arm. The magazine is arranged separately from the arm and is connected to same by means of a feeder tube. A motor-driven feeder feeds the balls from the ball container into the feeder tube. In so doing, a spring element stores the traction from the motor, so that, even when the motor stops, balls can still be transported using the energy stored in the spring element. The traction from the motor is transmitted via a connection or clutch consisting of a spring element and a transmission element. Protrusions are arranged on both the spring element and the transmission element, which come to bear on each other for transmitting traction. The protrusions are at least partially flexible, so that the transmitted force is limited. This way, explosion of the balls from excessive pressure is prevented.

Abstract: A three-in-one high-pressure gas cylinder magazine. A high-pressure gas cylinder is installed within a holding cavity, and held firmly using a fine tuning knob and securing cover. A spring mount and a securing seat are disposed within a pellet guide cavity defined parallel to the holding cavity. When the pellets are decreasing, the inner securing seat upwardly pushes the pellets within the pellet guide cavity and secures them within a securing ring in a ready state for propelling out a model pistol. When a gastight valve within a cylinder is full of gas, then an inner piston rod is put in a pneumatic state, and the cylinder and a slide cover are simultaneously driven backward as soon as the piston rod is driven by the gas, thereby fixing a hammer in a rear position, thus achieving simplification, automatic operating functionality, and succeeding in simulating a real pistol.
