Gun-lock assembly

Abstract

A gun-lock assembly of a toy gun is disclosed to have a gasket ring mounted on the periphery of a piston near its rear end and peripherally stopped at the peripheral wall of an accommodation chamber of the gun-lock housing. When an intake flow of gas is guided into the piston, the gasket ring is moved with the piston relative to the housing to extend an airtight space in the accommodation chamber for receiving the intake flow of gas to enhance the recoil of the toy gun.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to gun lock technology and more particularly, to a gun-lock assembly of a toy gun, which greatly enhances the recoil of the toy gun.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Regular toy air-soft guns are designed like a real gun. These toy air-soft guns have the same outer appearance of a real gun. They operate in the same manner as a real gun. Further, similar to a real gun, these toy air-soft guns produce a recoil upon shooting.[0005]Further, the strength of the firing force and recoil of a toy air-soft gun has a greatly concern with the design of the gun-lock assembly. FIGS. 1 and 2 show a gun-lock assembly a of a toy air-soft gun according to the prior art. According to this design, the gun-lock assembly a comprises a housing 10 and a piston 20. The housing 10 comprises an accommodation chamber 101 (see FIGS. 2 and 3) for accommodating the piston 20, and opening 102 transversely exte...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0009]The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is one object of the present invention to provide a gun-lock assembly for toy gun, which enhances the recoil of the toy gun.

[0010]To achieve this and other objects of the present invention, a gun-lock assembly comprises a housing, a piston, a first spring member, a stopper bolt, a second spring member and a gasket ring. The housing comprises an accommodation chamber longitudinally extending through front and rear ends thereof, an opening transversely extending across a middle part thereof at a rear side relative to the accommodation chamber for allowing movement of a hammer of a firing control mechanism, and an end block affixed to the rear end thereof. The piston is inserted through the front end of the housing into the accommodation chamber, comprising a stepped axial hole axially extending through front and rear ends thereof and a radial gas inlet located on the periphery thereof in communication with the stepped axial hole. The first spring member is mounted in the stepped axial hole near the front end of the piston. The stopper bolt is supported on the first spring member and movable to close the front end of the piston upon a supply of a forced flow of gas through the radial gas inlet into the stepped axial hole. The second spring member is mounted in the stepped axial hole and connected between the inside wall of the piston and the end block. The gasket ring is mounted on the periphery of the piston near the rear end of the piston and peripherally stopped at the peripheral wall of the accommodation chamber of the housing. The gasket ring is movable with the piston relative to the housing to extend an airtight space in the accommodation chamber for receiving a supply of a forced flow of gasp thereby enhancing the recoil of the toy gun.

Problems solved by technology

Further, similar to a real gun, these toy air-soft guns produce a recoil upon shooting.

However, due to limited airtight space behind the end block 40, the strength of the recoil produced upon a backward displacement of the housing 10 is limited, lowering the lifelike effect.
