Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toys, and in particular to a toy flying saucer gun. Background Technology
[0002] In the toy industry, soft pellet guns have always been popular among children and teenagers. They not only provide users with the fun of simulated shooting but also, to some extent, improve their reaction time and hand-eye coordination. With technological advancements and evolving consumer demands, the functions and design of soft pellet guns are continuously being improved and innovated.
[0003] Currently, most common soft-bullet guns on the market primarily fire soft bullets, and their target selection is quite limited. Existing soft-bullet gun shooting scenarios mostly require pre-set fixed targets, which lacks dynamism and can easily make players feel monotonous and bored, making it difficult to maintain interest and enthusiasm for the game for extended periods. For example, common indoor soft-bullet gun shooting games often feature fixed target positions set up on walls or specific areas, forcing players to repeatedly shoot at these fixed locations, lacking challenge and novelty.
[0004] To shoot moving targets with existing soft-ball guns, other people or specialized launching devices are needed to throw moving targets like frisbees. This method has many inconveniences. Throwing frisbees manually requires at least two people, and coordination issues can lead to a poor gaming experience. If the same person throws and shoots the frisbee, they may not be able to grab and raise the gun in time after throwing it, resulting in the frisbee landing before it can be fired. Using specialized launching devices requires a large space and resources, which is difficult to meet in ordinary homes or small activity venues, limiting the scope of the game and preventing players from enjoying the fun of shooting moving targets anytime, anywhere. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a toy flying saucer gun that can launch and shoot flying saucers, allowing players to shoot at moving targets by themselves, and at a low cost.
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the following technical solution is adopted:
[0007] A toy flying saucer gun includes a shell, a trigger, and a soft bullet launching mechanism. The shell has an inner cavity, the trigger is mounted on the shell, and the soft bullet launching mechanism is located within the inner cavity of the shell. The trigger is kinetically connected to the drive end of the soft bullet launching mechanism. The front end of the shell has a soft bullet launching port that communicates with the launching end of the soft bullet launching mechanism. The gun is characterized by further including a flying saucer launching mechanism, which is located within the inner cavity of the shell and is offset from the soft bullet launching mechanism. The upper end of the shell has a flying saucer launching port, and the launching end of the flying saucer launching mechanism corresponds to the position of the flying saucer launching port.
[0008] When using the aforementioned toy saucer gun, a flying saucer is placed in the launch port, aligning with the launching end of the saucer launching mechanism. The mechanism then drives the saucer to rotate and launch it from the launch port. After launch, the player can aim and pull the trigger to activate the soft-bullet launching mechanism, firing the soft bullets and thus shooting the saucer. This toy saucer gun simultaneously launches both flying saucers and soft bullets, eliminating the need for an additional launching device, resulting in lower costs and less space requirements. Furthermore, during play, soft bullets can be fired immediately after launching the saucer, without needing to put the gun down. This allows for immediate aiming and firing after launching the saucer, while maintaining a constant focus on the saucer, providing ample time for shooting.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the flying saucer launching mechanism includes a pull rod, a rack, a gearbox, and a rotary drive component. The pull rod and rack are movably disposed within the inner cavity of the outer shell, with the push-pull end of the pull rod extending out of the outer shell. The pull rod is connected to the rack. The gearbox contains a gear set, with the first gear of the gear set meshing with the rack. The rotary drive component is mounted on the last gear of the gear set and coaxially arranged with the last gear. The rotary drive component protrudes from the flying saucer launching port, and at least one outwardly protruding drive block is provided on the side wall of the rotary drive component. Typically, when the flying saucer is located at the launching port, it is fitted onto the rotary drive component (not fixedly connected), and the flying saucer has a locking block that matches the drive block. When the pull rod is pulled quickly, the pull rod can drive the gear set to rotate through the meshing of the rack and gear set, causing the rotary drive component to rotate accordingly. When the rotary drive component rotates, it drives the locking block through the drive block, causing the flying saucer to rotate rapidly. At this time, the flying saucer's fan blades can generate an upward airflow with the rotation, propelling the flying saucer out of the launching port; finally, the pull rod is pushed back to its original position. Generally, because the UFO's fan blades are tilted in one direction, only one action—pushing or pulling the lever—can launch the UFO. Typically, with the aforementioned UFO compartment and launch mechanism, pulling the lever is configured to launch the UFO. Of course, the UFO launch mechanism can also be electrically powered, for example, using a combination of a button and a micro-motor.
[0010] In a further preferred embodiment, the toy flying saucer gun also includes a flying saucer compartment and a flying saucer pushing mechanism. The flying saucer compartment is disposed on the outer shell, and its outlet extends into the inner cavity of the outer shell. The flying saucer pushing mechanism is disposed within the inner cavity of the outer shell, and its pushing end is movably disposed between the outlet of the flying saucer compartment and the driving end of the flying saucer launching mechanism. By providing the flying saucer compartment, multiple flying saucers can be placed in the compartment at once. After each flying saucer is launched, the flying saucer at the bottom of the compartment is pushed to the driving end of the launching mechanism by the flying saucer pushing mechanism.
[0011] In a further preferred embodiment, the UFO launch port is located at the upper front of the outer shell, and the UFO compartment is located at the upper rear of the outer shell. The UFO pushing mechanism includes a UFO guide and a UFO pushing block. The UFO guide is installed in the inner cavity of the outer shell. The UFO guide has a UFO pushing channel extending from the outlet of the UFO compartment to the drive end of the UFO launch mechanism. The front end of the UFO pushing channel has a downwardly extending UFO receiving cylinder. The outlet of the UFO compartment is located above the rear end of the UFO pushing channel, and the UFO receiving cylinder is located above the drive end of the UFO launch mechanism. The UFO guide has a first guide hole extending rearward from the UFO receiving cylinder. The UFO pushing block is mounted on the pull rod and is movable back and forth within the first guide hole. The flying saucer pusher is mounted on the lever. When the lever is pulled to launch the flying saucer, the flying saucer pusher also moves to the rear end of the first guide hole and is positioned behind the flying saucer at the bottom of the flying saucer compartment. Then, the lever can be pushed forward to push the flying saucer at the bottom of the flying saucer compartment forward until the flying saucer falls into the flying saucer container and contacts the drive end of the flying saucer launch mechanism. At this point, the lever can be pulled backward to launch the flying saucer, and the process is repeated.
[0012] In a further preferred embodiment, the flying saucer pushing mechanism further includes a torsion spring. The upper rear side of the flying saucer pushing block has a first inclined surface that slopes downwards from front to back. A pivot is located in the middle of the flying saucer pushing block, and the torsion spring is sleeved on the pivot. The flying saucer pushing block is rotatably mounted on the front end of the pull rod via the torsion spring. One end of the torsion spring is connected to the flying saucer pushing block, and the other end is connected to the pull rod. The pull rod has a limiting block that restricts the lower end of the flying saucer pushing block from swinging forward in a vertical position. When the flying saucer pushing block moves backward with the pull rod, the upper end of the flying saucer pushing block can swing downwards upon contact with the flying saucer at the bottom of the flying saucer compartment, and then swing upwards again under the action of the torsion spring after passing it. The limiting block prevents the flying saucer pushing block from swinging excessively, and the first inclined surface facilitates swinging upon contact.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the soft bullet launching mechanism includes an air cylinder, a loading handguard, a loading mechanism, and a limiting linkage. The air cylinder, loading mechanism, and limiting linkage are respectively disposed within the inner cavity of the outer casing. The launching end of the air cylinder corresponds to the launching port of the soft bullet. The loading handguard is movably mounted on the outer casing and is linked to the piston rod of the air cylinder via the loading mechanism. One end of the limiting linkage is linked to the trigger, and the other end of the limiting linkage is provided with a limiting element that prevents the piston rod from resetting in the loading state. The aforementioned loading state refers to the air cylinder's piston rod being in its maximum extension state. When using the aforementioned soft bullet launching mechanism, the loading handguard is first pulled back to load the bullet. Driven by the loading handguard, the loading mechanism pulls the piston rod of the air cylinder backward. After the piston rod reaches its maximum extension state, the limiting component on the limiting linkage blocks the piston rod, preventing it from resetting. At this point, loading is complete. When firing, pulling the trigger will cause the limiting linkage to move, so that the limiting component on the limiting linkage no longer blocks the piston rod. At this point, the piston rod will quickly reset, allowing the air cylinder to launch the soft bullet.
[0014] In a further preferred embodiment, the loading mechanism includes a piston rod return spring and a loading handguard linkage. The piston rod return spring is located at the rear of the air cylinder, with its front end connected to the rear end of the air cylinder piston rod and its rear end connected to the rear end of the air cylinder. The front end of the loading handguard linkage is connected to the rear end of the air cylinder piston rod. The upper end of the limiting linkage constitutes the limiting member, and the lower part of the loading handguard linkage has a limiting notch that matches the upper end of the limiting linkage. When the piston rod of the air cylinder is pulled, the piston rod return spring is also stretched. When the piston rod reaches its maximum stretched state, the upper end of the limiting linkage can engage with the limiting notch, locking the loading handguard linkage and preventing the piston rod from resetting under the action of the piston rod return spring.
[0015] In a further preferred embodiment, the soft bullet launching mechanism further includes a limiting linkage return spring and a trigger return spring. The limiting linkage is movably disposed within the housing. The lower end of the limiting linkage has a downwardly extending first guide post. The limiting linkage return spring is sleeved on the first guide post, and the upper end of the limiting linkage return spring is connected to or in close contact with the lower end of the limiting linkage. The upper end of the limiting linkage return spring is connected to or in close contact with the housing. The rear end of the trigger has a rearwardly extending second guide post. The trigger return spring is sleeved on the second guide post, and the front end of the trigger return spring is connected to or in close contact with the trigger. The rear end of the trigger return spring is connected to or in close contact with the housing. The middle of the limiting linkage has a second guide hole with an opening facing forward and backward. The front end of the trigger has a forward-extending trigger linkage that passes through the second guide hole. The front end of the trigger linkage has a locking block extending forward and downward. The rear side of the locking block is a second inclined surface that slopes downward from back to front. When the handguard linkage moves backward, the limiting linkage first descends, and then, corresponding to the limiting notch, the limiting linkage's return spring moves upward, locking into the limiting notch. When the trigger is pulled to fire, the trigger linkage and the locking block move backward along the second guide hole with the trigger. At this time, the locking block pushes the limiting linkage downward through the second inclined surface, causing the upper end of the limiting linkage to leave the limiting notch. The handguard linkage and the piston rod of the cylinder can then quickly return to their original positions under the action of the piston rod return spring, ejecting the soft cartridge. As the trigger is released, the trigger moves forward again under the action of the trigger return spring, causing the locking block to move forward and leave the second guide hole. At this time, the limiting linkage returns to its original position under the action of the limiting linkage's return spring. Typically, the trigger, trigger linkage, and locking block are made as a single unit.
[0016] In a further preferred embodiment, the lower rear side of the loading handguard linkage is provided with a third inclined surface that slopes downward from rear to front, and the upper front side of the limiting linkage is provided with a fourth inclined surface that slopes upward from front to rear. The third and fourth inclined surfaces correspond to each other. By providing the third and fourth inclined surfaces, when the loading handguard linkage moves backward, the upper end of the limiting linkage can more easily engage with the limiting notch.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are that this toy flying saucer gun can launch and shoot flying saucers, allowing players to shoot at moving targets by themselves, and at a low cost. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0029] like Figure 1-9 The toy flying saucer gun shown includes a shell 1, a trigger 2, a soft bullet launching mechanism 3, and a flying saucer launching mechanism 4. The shell 1 has an inner cavity, the trigger 2 is mounted on the shell 1, the soft bullet launching mechanism 3 and the flying saucer launching mechanism 4 are respectively mounted in the inner cavity of the shell 1, the trigger 2 is connected to the drive end of the soft bullet launching mechanism 3, the front end of the shell 1 has a soft bullet launching port 101 that communicates with the launching end of the soft bullet launching mechanism 3, the flying saucer launching mechanism 4 and the soft bullet launching mechanism 3 are staggered; the upper end of the shell 1 has a flying saucer launching port 102, the launching end of the flying saucer launching mechanism 4 is positioned corresponding to the flying saucer launching port 102.
[0030] When using the toy flying saucer gun, place the flying saucer 5 in the flying saucer firing port 102 (the structure of the flying saucer is as follows). Figure 10As shown, the flying saucer 5 engages with the launching end of the flying saucer launching mechanism 4, which then drives the flying saucer 5 to rotate and launch it from the launching port 102. After the flying saucer 5 is launched, the player can aim at it and pull the trigger 2 to activate the soft bullet launching mechanism 3, launching the soft bullets and shooting the flying saucer 5. This toy flying saucer gun has the function of launching both the flying saucer 5 and soft bullets. It does not require an additional launching device to launch the flying saucer 5, has a lower cost, and requires less space. Furthermore, when playing, the soft bullets can be launched immediately after the flying saucer 5 is launched, without having to put the gun down. This allows for immediate aiming and shooting after launching the flying saucer 5, and the player can keep their field of vision focused on the flying saucer 5, thus having ample time to shoot.
[0031] The UFO launching mechanism 4 includes a pull rod 401, a rack 402, a gearbox 403, and a rotation drive 404. The pull rod 401 and rack 402 are movably disposed within the inner cavity of the outer casing 1, with the push-pull end of the pull rod 401 extending out of the outer casing 1. The pull rod 401 is connected to the rack 402. The gearbox 403 contains a gear set, with the first gear of the gear set meshing with the rack 402. The rotation drive 404 is mounted on the last gear of the gear set and is coaxially arranged with the last gear. The rotation drive 404 protrudes from the UFO launching port 102, and two outwardly protruding drive blocks 4041 are provided on the side wall of the rotation drive 404. When the UFO 5 is located at the UFO launching port 102, the UFO 5 is fitted onto the rotation drive 404 (not fixedly connected), and the UFO 5 is provided with a locking block 501 that matches the drive block 4041. When lever 401 is pulled quickly, lever 401 engages with rack 402 and gear set, causing gear set to rotate. This causes drive component 404 to rotate, and drive component 404 drives block 501 via drive block 4041, causing UFO 5 to rotate rapidly. At this time, the fan blades of UFO 5 generate an updraft as they rotate, propelling UFO 5 out of launch port 102. Finally, lever 401 is pushed back to its original position. Generally, since the fan blades of UFO 5 are tilted in one direction, only one action, pushing or pulling lever 401, can cause UFO 5 to launch. Typically, when the aforementioned UFO compartment 6 and UFO pushing mechanism 7 are provided, pulling lever 401 is configured to cause UFO 5 to launch.
[0032] The toy flying saucer gun also includes a flying saucer compartment 6 and a flying saucer pushing mechanism 7. The flying saucer compartment 6 is mounted on the outer shell 1, and its outlet extends into the inner cavity of the outer shell 1. The flying saucer pushing mechanism 7 is located in the inner cavity of the outer shell 1, and its pushing end is movably positioned between the outlet of the flying saucer compartment 6 and the driving end of the flying saucer launching mechanism 4. By setting up the flying saucer compartment 6, multiple flying saucers 5 can be placed in the flying saucer compartment 6 at one time. After each flying saucer 5 is launched, the flying saucer 5 at the bottom of the flying saucer compartment 6 is pushed to the driving end of the flying saucer launching mechanism 4 by the flying saucer pushing mechanism 7.
[0033] The UFO launch port 102 is located at the upper front of the outer shell 1, and the UFO compartment 6 is located at the upper rear of the outer shell 1. The UFO pushing mechanism 7 includes a UFO guide 701 and a UFO pushing block 702. The UFO guide 701 is installed in the inner cavity of the outer shell 1. The UFO guide 701 has a UFO pushing channel 7011 extending from the outlet of the UFO compartment 6 to the driving end of the UFO launch mechanism 4. The front end of the UFO pushing channel 7011 has a downwardly extending UFO receiving cylinder 7012. The outlet of the UFO compartment 6 is located above the rear end of the UFO pushing channel 7011, and the UFO receiving cylinder 7012 is located above the driving end of the UFO launch mechanism 4. The UFO guide 701 has a first guide hole 7013 extending rearward from the UFO receiving cylinder 7012. The UFO pushing block 702 is mounted on the pull rod 401, and the UFO pushing block 702 is movable back and forth in the first guide hole 7013. The flying saucer pusher block 702 is mounted on the lever 401. When the lever 401 is pulled to launch the flying saucer 5, the flying saucer pusher block 702 also moves to the rear end of the first guide hole 7013 and is located behind the flying saucer 5 at the bottom of the flying saucer compartment 6. Then the lever 401 can be pushed forward to push the flying saucer pusher block 702 forward to push the flying saucer 5 at the bottom of the flying saucer compartment 6 until the flying saucer 5 falls into the flying saucer receiving tube 7012 and comes into contact with the drive end of the flying saucer launching mechanism 4. At this time, the lever 401 can be pulled backward to launch the flying saucer 5, and the cycle is repeated.
[0034] The UFO pushing mechanism 7 also includes a torsion spring (not visible in the figure). The upper rear side of the UFO pushing block 702 is provided with a first inclined surface 7021 that slopes downward from front to back. The middle part of the UFO pushing block 702 is provided with a rotating shaft 7022. The torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft 7022. The UFO pushing block 702 is rotatably mounted on the front end of the pull rod 401 through the torsion spring. One end of the torsion spring is connected to the UFO pushing block 702, and the other end of the torsion spring is connected to the pull rod 401. The pull rod 401 is provided with a limiting block 4011 that restricts the lower end of the UFO pushing block 702 from swinging forward in a vertical state. When the UFO push block 702 moves backward with the pull rod 401, the upper end of the UFO push block 702 can swing downward when it contacts the UFO 5 at the bottom of the UFO compartment 6, and then swing upward again under the action of the torsion spring after passing it. The limit block 4011 can prevent the UFO push block 702 from swinging excessively, and the first inclined surface 7021 makes it easier to swing when in contact.
[0035] The soft bullet launching mechanism 3 includes an air cylinder 301, a loading handguard 302, a loading mechanism 303, and a limiting linkage 304. The air cylinder 301, loading mechanism 303, and limiting linkage 304 are respectively disposed within the inner cavity of the outer casing 1. The launching end of the air cylinder 301 corresponds to the position of the soft bullet launching port 101. The loading handguard 302 is movably mounted on the outer casing 1 and is linked to the piston rod of the air cylinder 301 via the loading mechanism 303. One end of the limiting linkage 304 is linked to the trigger 2, and the other end of the limiting linkage 304 is provided with a limiting element that can prevent the piston rod from resetting in the loading state. The aforementioned loading state refers to the piston rod of the air cylinder 301 being in its maximum extended state. When the aforementioned soft bullet launching mechanism 3 is in use, the loading handguard 302 is pulled back to load the bullet. The loading mechanism 303, driven by the loading handguard 302, pulls the piston rod of the air cylinder 301 backward. After the piston rod reaches its maximum extension state, the limiting member on the limiting linkage 304 blocks the piston rod to prevent it from resetting. At this time, loading is completed. When firing, pulling the trigger 2 will cause the limiting linkage 304 to move, so that the limiting member on the limiting linkage 304 no longer blocks the piston rod. At this time, the piston rod will quickly reset, allowing the air cylinder 301 to launch the soft bullet.
[0036] The loading mechanism 303 includes a piston rod return spring 3031 and a loading handguard linkage 3032. The piston rod return spring 3031 is located at the rear of the air cylinder 301, and its front end is connected to the rear end of the piston rod of the air cylinder 301, and its rear end is connected to the rear end of the air cylinder 301. The front end of the loading handguard linkage 3032 is connected to the rear end of the piston rod of the air cylinder 301. The upper end of the limiting linkage 304 constitutes a limiting member, and the lower part of the loading handguard linkage 3032 is provided with a limiting notch 30321 that matches the upper end of the limiting linkage 304. When the piston rod of the air cylinder 301 is pulled, the piston rod return spring 3031 is also stretched. When the piston rod reaches the maximum stretched state, the upper end of the limit linkage 304 can be inserted into the limit notch 30321, which will lock the upper guard linkage 3032 and restrict the piston rod from returning to its original position under the action of the piston rod return spring 3031.
[0037] The soft bullet launching mechanism 3 also includes a limit linkage return spring 305 and a trigger return spring 306. The limit linkage 304 is movably disposed in the housing 1. The lower end of the limit linkage 304 is provided with a downwardly extending first guide post 3041. The limit linkage return spring 305 is sleeved on the first guide post 3041, and the upper end of the limit linkage return spring 305 is connected to or in close contact with the lower end of the limit linkage 304. The upper end of the limit linkage return spring 305 is connected to or in close contact with the housing 1. The rear end of the trigger 2 is provided with a rearwardly extending second guide post 201, and the trigger return spring 306... Spring 306 is sleeved on the second guide post 201, and the front end of the trigger return spring 306 is connected to or in close contact with the trigger 2, and the rear end of the trigger return spring 306 is connected to or in close contact with the outer shell 1; the middle part of the limiting linkage 304 has a second guide hole 3042 with an opening facing forward and backward, the front end of the trigger 2 is provided with a trigger linkage 202 extending forward, the trigger linkage 202 passes through the second guide hole 3042, and the front end of the trigger linkage 202 is provided with a locking block 203 extending forward and downward, and the rear side of the locking block 203 is a second inclined surface 2031 that slopes downward from back to front. When the handguard linkage 3032 moves backward, the limiting linkage 304 first descends, and then, corresponding to the limiting notch 30321, the limiting linkage return spring 305 moves upward and engages in the limiting notch 30321. When the trigger 2 is pulled to fire, the trigger linkage 202 and the locking block 203 move backward along the second guide hole 3042 with the trigger 2. At this time, the locking block 203 pushes the limiting linkage 304 downward through the second inclined surface 2031, thereby limiting the movement of the handguard linkage 304. When the upper end of the linkage 304 moves away from the limiting notch 30321, the piston rod of the loading handguard linkage 3032 and the air cylinder 301 can quickly return to its original position under the action of the piston rod return spring 3031, thus ejecting the soft cartridge. As the trigger 2 is released, the trigger 2 can move forward again under the action of the trigger return spring 306, causing the locking block 203 to move forward and away from the second guide hole 3042. At this time, the limiting linkage 304 returns to its original position upward under the action of the limiting linkage return spring 305. Typically, the trigger 2, the trigger linkage 202, and the locking block 203 are made as a single unit.
[0038] The lower rear side of the loading handguard linkage 3032 is provided with a third inclined surface 30322 that slopes downward from rear to front, and the upper front side of the limiting linkage 304 is provided with a fourth inclined surface 3043 that slopes upward from front to rear. The third inclined surface 30322 and the fourth inclined surface 3043 correspond to each other. By providing the third inclined surface 30322 and the fourth inclined surface 3043, when the loading handguard linkage 3032 moves backward, the upper end of the easier-to-limit linkage 304 can be more easily engaged into the limiting notch 30321.
