Fast Piercing Structure for Toy Gun Air Bottle
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional toy guns using air steel bottles are time-consuming and inconvenient to operate, especially in rapid-fire scenarios, due to the need for rotating the screw seat to pierce the bottle, which slows down the process.
Innovation Solution
A fast piercing structure for the air bottle, featuring a press set with an elastic component that elastically pushes a piercing pin through the bottle lid to quickly pierce the air bottle, allowing for rapid installation and air release.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the screw seat is rotated into the gun body to pierce the air bottle, then the air bottle can be securely installed and pierced, but the operation becomes time-consuming and inconvenient
Solution Approach 1:
The piercing pin is pre-loaded into the bottle lid in an assembled state before the air bottle is installed in the gun body. This preliminary preparation eliminates the need for rotation during operation, allowing the user to simply push the base to activate the piercing action, thereby reducing the time required for the piercing operation while maintaining secure installation
Solution Approach 2:
The piercing mechanism is divided into separate functional components: the piercing pin is integrated into the bottle lid assembly, while the pressing force is provided by a separate elastic part in the press set. This segmentation allows the piercing function to be prepared in advance and activated quickly through simple linear motion rather than rotation
2Object-generated harmful factors
If the screw seat is rotated to pierce the air bottle, then the piercing function is achieved, but the operation is inconvenient for rapid-fire scenarios
Solution Approach 1:
The piercing pin is pre-assembled with the bottle lid, and the press set is pre-loaded with the elastic part. This preliminary preparation transforms the complex rotational screwing operation into a simple push action, greatly improving ease of operation during rapid-fire scenarios while maintaining the piercing function
Solution Approach 2:
Instead of using a rotational motion to activate piercing (as in traditional screw seats), the invention uses a linear pressing motion. The user pushes the base forward, which compresses the elastic part and drives the piercing pin through the bottle lid, inverting the traditional rotational activation mechanism into a simpler linear action
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enables quick and convenient installation of the air bottle, enhancing operational efficiency by allowing rapid air release for firing, thus improving the usability of the toy gun in time-sensitive situations.
Implementation Method 1
an elastic part clamped between the bottle lid and the base... the elastic part of the press set can move the piercing pin toward the air bottle... the elastic part of the press set will be pressed by the base to be elastically compressed

AI summary
A toy gun and a fast piercing structure for an air bottle thereof is provided. The air cylinder has a shell body and a receiving space; the shell body forms a first connecting opening and a second connecting opening. The valve seat is disposed at the first connecting opening and has an air channel. The bottle lid is assembled to the second connecting opening and has a throughhole. The piercing pin is disposed in the throughhole. The press set has a base holding the bottle lid, an elastic part, and a plug; the plug is disposed passing through the piercing pin and the base. In this way, the fast piercing structure for an air bottle is provided.
