AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention is an improved paintball marker that uses multiple gas canisters with a sealing and piercing connection. The marker has a unique construction that allows for the efficient use of gas from multiple sources. A pressure application device is used to seal and pierce the gas canisters, and the combined gas supply is selectively released to act on the paintball. The invention provides an increased gas supply and a single valve assembly for easy and inexpensively controlled operation. The method also allows for sealing and piercing multiple cartridges without prematurely releasing gas from one of the canisters. Overall, the invention provides a more efficient and effective gas supply for paintball markers."

Problems solved by technology

However, the prior art fails to teach the limitations imposed by these cartridges and how to overcome these limitations.
Thus, it may be seen that these prior art patents are very limited in their teaching and utilization, and an improved marker is needed to overcome these limitations.

Embodiment Construction

[0031] As shown in FIGS. 1 through 15 of the drawings, one exemplary embodiment of the present invention is generally shown as a multiple canister supply paintball marker 100 for using pressurized gas 22 for launching a paintball 10. The gas is provided in commercially known and available gas cartridges 20 shown in FIGS. 2 through 6 that hold a pressurized gas 22 within a gas containment body 24. The gas cartridges 20 are also known as gas containers 20. The pressurized gas 22 may be seen in its initial position within the gas container 20 through the cutaway section of the gas containment body 24 shown in FIG. 3. The gas containment body includes a release neck 26, an elongated central compartment 28 and a domed end 30. The gas cartridges 20 are designed so that they will release the pressurized gas 22 upon puncturing of the release neck 26. The release neck 26 is flowably connected to the elongated central compartment 28 which is capped by the domed end 30 of the cartridge 20.
