[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present embodiment provides a toy water gun, including a gun body 10, a water pump 20 installed in the gun body 10, a first water tank 30 and a second water tank 40 respectively connected to the gun body 10, and a water ejection mechanism 50 installed in the gun body 10.

[0035] The gun body 10 is provided with a water inlet 11 and a jet port 12, wherein the water inlet 11 and the jet port 12 are both exposed on the gun body 10. In this embodiment, the water inlet 11 and the jet port 12 are provided on the same side at the gun head of the gun body 10. The water inlet 11 is connected to the water pump 20 so that an external water source can be sucked into the water pump 20 through the water inlet 11. The jet port 12 is connected to the water ejection mechanism 50 so that the water ejection mechanism 50 can eject a water column through the jet port 12. In other embodiments of the utility model, the water inlet 11 and the jet port 12 can also be provided at other positions of the gun body 10.

[0036] In this embodiment, the water pump 20 is configured as a diaphragm pump. Since the specific structure and working principle of the diaphragm pump have been disclosed in the prior art, they will not be described here. The water inlet 21 of the water pump 20 is connected to the water suction port 11, and the water outlet 22 of the water pump 20 is connected to the first water tank 30, which is used to automatically and electrically control the external water source to be sucked into the first water tank 30. In this embodiment, the water pump 20 can also be other water pumps capable of conveying liquids, such as a gear pump, an impeller pump, etc.

[0037] The first water tank 30 and the second water tank 40 are arranged on the gun body 10 in a relative manner, wherein the first water tank 30 is connected to the water outlet 22 of the water pump 20, the water ejection mechanism 50 and the second water tank 40 through water pipes. In this embodiment, a sealing cover is respectively provided on the outer shell of the first water tank 30 and the second water tank 40, and the player can also open the sealing cover to directly pour water into the first water tank 30 and the second water tank 40. In other embodiments of the utility model, the toy water gun can also be provided with only the first water tank 30. The outer shell of the first water tank 30 and / or the second water tank 40 may not be provided with a sealing cover.

[0038] Please also refer to Figures 3 to 7 The water-spraying mechanism 50 is used to switch between the automatic water-spraying function and the manual water-spraying function according to the needs of the player, and includes a housing 51, a launching assembly 52, an automatic assembly 53, a manual assembly 54, a trigger rod 55, and a switching plate 56. The housing 51 is used to assemble the launching assembly 52, the automatic assembly 53, the manual assembly 54, the trigger rod 55, and the switching plate 56 into a whole, wherein the launching assembly 52 and the automatic assembly 53 are installed in the housing 51, and the manual assembly 54, the trigger rod 55, and the switching plate 56 are connected to the outside of the housing 51.

[0039] The housing 51 is provided with an opening 511, a first mounting groove 513, a second mounting groove 514 and a positioning block 515. The opening 511 and the first mounting groove 513 are located on the same side of the housing 51, and the second mounting groove 514 and the positioning block 515 are located on the other side opposite to the housing 51. The opening 511 is provided corresponding to the trigger rod 55, and is used to connect the inner and outer spaces of the housing 51, so that the trigger rod 55 can pass through the opening 511 and be connected to the firing assembly 52 inside the housing 51 in a contactable manner, thereby playing a role in limiting the movement of the firing assembly 52. ​​The first mounting groove 513 and the second mounting groove 514 are provided corresponding to the partial automatic assembly 53, respectively, and are used to fix the partial automatic assembly 53 outside the housing 51. A switching plate 56 is movably provided on the positioning block 515, and is used to movably connect the housing 51 and the switching plate 56.

[0040] The launching assembly 52 includes a relatively movable gas cylinder 521 and a piston rod 522. The gas cylinder 521 is fixed in the housing 51. One end of the piston rod 522 is connected to the housing 51 through a spring. The other end of the piston rod 522 is movably connected to the gas cylinder 521. The piston rod 522 is pushed by the spring to move into the gas cylinder 521. The water inlet 5211 of the gas cylinder 521 is connected to the first water tank 30, and the water ejection port 5212 of the gas cylinder 521 is connected to the injection port 12. Under the action of the piston rod 522, the water flow in the first water tank 30 can be sucked into the gas cylinder 521 from the water inlet 5211, and then ejected from the water ejection port 5212 under the push of the piston rod 522. It should be noted that the water inlet 5211 and the water ejection port 5212 of the gas cylinder 521 are both provided with a one-way valve. Since the structure adopts the existing technology, it is not repeated here.

[0041] The piston rod 522 is provided with a protruding block 5221, a limiting edge 5222 and a rack 5223, wherein the protruding block 5221 is movable and extended out of the housing 51 and is connected to the manual assembly 54 in a manner that it can contact with each other, so that the piston rod 522 can be controlled by the manual assembly 54 to move out of the gas cylinder 521. The limiting edge 5222 is arranged relative to the direction of the opening 511, and is used to be connected to the trigger rod 55 in a manner that it can contact with each other, so that when the piston rod 522 moves to a position corresponding to the limiting edge 5222 and the opening 511, the limiting edge 5222 can contact with the trigger rod 55 to limit the movement of the piston rod 522. The rack 5223 is detachably engaged with a part of the automatic assembly 53, so that the piston rod 522 can also be controlled by the automatic assembly 53 to move out of the gas cylinder 521.

[0042] The automatic component 53 includes a motor 532, a first switch 534, and a second switch 535 electrically connected to form a circuit. The motor 532 is installed in the housing 51, and the motor 532 is used to drive the piston rod 522 to move outside the cylinder 521 through the gear set 533. Specifically, the motor 532 adopts a single-axis motor, one end of the gear set 533 is fixed to the rotating shaft of the motor 532, and the other end of the gear set 533 is a missing tooth gear 5331, which is detachably meshed with the rack 5223, and is used to mesh with the rack 5223 and drive it to move outside the cylinder 521 as the rotating shaft of the motor 532 rotates. As the missing tooth gear 5331 continues to rotate, the missing tooth gear 5331 is separated from the rack 5223, and the piston rod 522 can move to the inside of the cylinder 521 and reset under the action of elastic force. That is to say, through the cooperation of the gear set 533 and the spring, the piston rod 522 can be driven to continuously reciprocate in the air cylinder 521, thereby realizing a continuous water spraying function.

[0043] The first switch 534 is fixed in the first installation slot 513, and the first switch 534 is connected to the trigger rod 55 in a manner that they can contact each other, and is used to control the start and stop of the motor 532 as the trigger rod 55 rotates. The second switch 535 is fixed in the second installation slot 514, and the second switch 535 is connected to the switching plate 56 in a manner that they can contact each other, and is used to control the on and off of the circuit where the motor 532 is located as the switching plate 56 moves.

[0044] The manual assembly 54 includes a handle 541, which is externally arranged on the housing 51 and connected to the gun body 10 through a spring, and is used to be controlled by the pulling force of the player and the elastic force of the spring to reciprocate on the gun body 10. It can be understood that the handle 541 includes a push block 5411 arranged in the direction of the protruding block 5221, and a groove 5412 arranged relative to the switching plate 56. The push block 5411 is connected to the protruding block 5221 in a manner that it can contact with each other, so that when the player pulls the handle 541, the push block 5411 contacts with the protruding block 5221 and drives it to move. The groove 5412 is connected to the switching plate 56 in a snap-fitting manner, so that it can be controlled by the switching plate 56 to be relatively movable or restrictedly connected to the housing 51.

[0045] The trigger rod 55 includes a rotatable trigger 551 and a connecting rod 552. The trigger 551 is rotatably connected to the gun body 10 and partially exposed on the gun body 10, and is used to be rotated by the player to simultaneously drive the connecting rod 552 to rotate. The connecting rod 552 is rotatably connected to the housing 51 through another spring, and the other spring is used to push the connecting rod 552 to rotate from the second position to the first position.

[0046] Specifically, the trigger 551 is provided with a first connection block 5511, the middle part of the connecting rod 552 is elastically rotatably connected to the housing 51, and the connecting rod 552 is provided with a second connection block 5521 at one end along the rotation center thereof, and the connecting rod 552 is provided with a limit block 5522 and a start block 5523 at the other end along the rotation center thereof. The first connection block 5511 is connected to the second connection block 5521 in abutment with each other, the limit block 5522 is provided corresponding to the opening 511 and passes through the opening 511 to be connected to the limit edge 5222 in abutment with each other, and the start block 5523 is provided opposite to the first switch 534 and is connected to the first switch 534 in abutment with each other.

[0047] When the connecting rod 552 is controlled by the trigger 551 to rotate from the first position to the second position, the limit block 5522 is separated from the limit edge 5222, and the starting block 5523 contacts and presses the first switch 534. If the water-shooting mechanism 50 is in the automatic mode at this time, the motor 532 starts to control the movement of the piston rod 522; if the water-shooting mechanism 50 is in the manual mode at this time, the piston rod 522 is not restricted by the connecting rod 552, and can move into the air cylinder 521 and reset under the action of elastic force. When the connecting rod 552 rotates to the first position under the action of elastic force, the limit block 5522 and the limit edge 5222 can be connected in abutment with each other, and the starting block 5523 is separated from the first switch 534. If the water-shooting mechanism 50 is in automatic mode at this time, the electric 532 stops rotating; if the water-shooting mechanism 50 is in manual mode at this time, then during the controlled movement of the piston rod 522, the limit edge 5222 can be connected in abutment with the limit block 5522, thereby limiting the movement of the piston rod 522, so that the spring on the piston rod 522 can be compressed to store energy.

[0048] In this embodiment, the switching plate 56 includes a toggle plate 565 rotatably connected to the housing 51. It is understandable that the toggle plate 565 includes a toggle rod 5651 and a protrusion 5652, the toggle rod 5651 is fixed to the eccentric position of the protrusion 5652, and the toggle rod 5651 is exposed on the gun body 10, and is used for the player to rotate and control the protrusion 5652 to rotate accordingly. The protrusion 5652 is rotatably connected to the switching plate 56, and the side of the protrusion 5652 connected to the switching plate 56 is set as a fan-shaped body, the fan-shaped body is controlled by the toggle rod 5651 to rotate in the switching plate 56, and the fan-shaped body is connected to the inner wall of the switching plate 56 in the rotation process to push the switching plate 56 to move.

[0049] The switch plate 56 is provided with a connection window 561, a clamping protrusion 562, a pressing portion 563 and a connection hole 564, wherein a protrusion 5652 is rotatably connected in the connection window 561, and the inner wall of the connection window 561 is connected to the protrusion 5652 in a manner that it can contact with each other, and is used to drive the switch plate 56 to move upward or downward according to the rotation direction of the protrusion 5652. The clamping protrusion 562 protrudes toward the direction of the handle 541 and is connected to the groove 5412 in a manner that it can be buckled, and plays a role in limiting or releasing the movement of the handle 541. The pressing portion 563 is an inclined surface provided relative to the second switch 535, and the inclined surface is connected to the second switch 535 in a manner that it can contact with each other as the switch plate 56 moves, and is used to contact and press the second switch 535 or separate from the second switch 535. The connection hole 564 is provided corresponding to the positioning block 515 and is slidably connected to the positioning block 515. The connection hole 564 is an oblong hole, and is used to cooperate with the positioning block 515 to limit the extreme position of the movement of the switch plate 56. In other embodiments of the present invention, the switch plate 56 may not be provided with the toggle plate 565 , and in this case, the switch plate 56 may not be provided with the connection window 561 .

[0050] It should be noted that the switch plate 56 can be controlled to move to a third position where it contacts the second switch 535 and engages with the handle 541 , or to a fourth position where it is separated from both the second switch 535 and the handle 541 .

[0051] When the switch plate 56 moves to the third position with the rotation of the toggle plate 565, the water-shooting mechanism 50 is in automatic mode. At this time, the circuit where the motor 532 is located is turned on, and the handle 541 cannot move under the restriction of the switch plate 56. The workflow of completing water-shooting in automatic mode is roughly as follows: pull the trigger 551 to rotate the connecting rod 552 to the second position. At this time, the motor 532 rotates and drives the piston rod 522 to move through the gear set 533. The piston rod 522 moves back and forth in the cylinder 521 under the cooperation of the gear set 533 and the spring to achieve continuous water spraying. If the trigger 551 is released, the connecting rod 552 returns to the first position, and the motor 532 stops rotating, so that the water-shooting mechanism 50 stops spraying water.

[0052] When the switch plate 56 moves to the fourth position with the rotation of the toggle plate 565, the water-shooting mechanism 50 is in manual mode. At this time, the circuit where the motor 532 is located is disconnected, and the handle 541 is separated from the switch plate 56, so that the player can pull the handle 541 to move. The workflow of completing water shooting in manual mode is roughly as follows: by pulling the handle 541 to drive the piston rod 522 to move out of the cylinder 521, since the connecting rod 552 is in the first position at this time, the limiting edge 5222 can move to contact with the limiting block 5522, thereby limiting the movement of the piston rod 522. At this time, the spring on the piston rod 522 is compressed to store energy. If the trigger 551 is pulled, the connecting rod 552 rotates to the second position. At this time, since the circuit where the motor 532 is located is disconnected, even if the first switch 534 is activated by force, the motor 532 cannot rotate to work. In the second position, the limiting block 5522 is separated from the limiting edge 5222 to release the piston rod 522. At this time, the piston rod 522 moves back to the air cylinder 521 under the action of elastic force, thereby achieving a single water spray.
