Embodiment Construction

[0039] The invention finds wide application for industrial and firefighting areas for any system which needs to project fluid at a specific target.

[0040] The following description will describe various embodiments useable with a water gun. Other similar applications in toys are also contemplated, such as cap guns, paintball guns, and non-firing toy guns. Additionally, other liquid projecting device applications are also contemplated, such as would be used with emergency fire-department equipment and the like, which may dispense water or a chemical based liquid other than water. Further uses would be readily apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art after reading this disclosure.

[0041] Referring now to the drawings, and more particularly to FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B, FIG. 1C, and FIG. 2, there is shown a water gun WG according to one embodiment of the present invention. The design detail of the water gun itself is not a concern of this disclosure, as such designs are standard in the prio...

Abstract

An adjustable laser sight is provided, wherein the laser sight is fastened to a toy gun, such as a water gun. The laser emits a beam providing a method for aiming the stream of water, thereby providing amusement by way of simulating the visual effect of “real” laser sights on actual weapons.

Description

FIELD OF ENDEAVOR [0001] The present invention relates generally to aiming a stream of liquid at a target. The invention has industrial application in machines that target liquid streams, firefighting applications, and amusement applications. Among amusement devices and toys, the invention relates to use of lasers in toys. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] Laser sights are typically high-precision devices attached to lethal weapons such as pistols, rifles, and hunting bows. Historically, the cost of lasers has largely precluded their use in toys. However, the relatively low cost of modern diode lasers now makes it a realistic and cost effective proposition to mount a laser sight to a toy gun primarily as a novelty, to simulate a real laser-sighted gun. [0003] By combining a laser with a toy water gun, the user of the toy experiences an additional element of fun. Allowing the beam to be adjusted in the vertical adds to the amusement, while further providing a method of improving the...
