  • (b) Description of the Prior Art
  • A jungle surviving game has become a very popular leisure activity all over the world. Essentially, a paint ball gun is used as the weapon for shooting in the game. To minimize the danger present by the paint ball gun, a flask filled up with compressed air serves as the source of power to supply air pressure for pushing against a piston to hit a striker and fire a paint ball. As illustrated in FIG. 11 of the accompanying drawings, a conventional paint ball gun (A) comprises an opening (A2) disposed at the top of a barrel (A1) of the paint ball gun (A). Two threaded holes (A3) are provided on two sides of the opening (A2), respectively, and inserted with screws (A4) to retain protruding plates (B1) from a loader (B). An entrance (B2) is provided at the top of the loader (B) to receive insertion and to hold in position by a fixation end (C1) of a hopper (C). Accordingly, paint balls automatically fall into the barrel (A1) in sequence to be fired.
  • However, paint balls are free fall objects that continuously fall into the barrel without any resistance. Therefore, paint balls keep falling into the barrel (A1) until there is no paint ball left in the hopper (C) or if the hopper (C) is removed to empty it. As a result, either the residual paint balls are wasted or there is the potential danger in case that any residual paint ball not cleared may be misfired by accidentally touching the trigger.

  • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • Referring to FIG. 1, a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a load tube (1) and a ring (2).
  • The load tube (1) includes a plurality of retaining members (14). A passage (11) is provided in the load tube (1) and a flange (12) is externally provided at the lower section of the load tube (1). The load tube (1) is provided with a plurality of through holes (13) above the flange (12) to receive insertion of their respective retaining members (14). Each retaining member (14) in this preferred embodiment is a ball.
  • The ring (2) is placed on the flange (12) of the load tube (1) and comprises a plurality of channels (21) corresponding in position to the through holes (13) of the load tube (1). Each channel (21) is a slot made deeper in the center and gradually shallower toward both sides.
  • Now referring to FIGS. 2 and 3 respectively for a top view and an operation status of the preferred embodiment, the retaining members (14) as illustrated in FIG. 2 are located on the deeper central area of their respective channels (21) of the ring (2) with all the retaining members (14) completely retreated in their corresponding through holes (13) of the load tube (1). In this status, a paint ball is free from the containment by the retaining members (14). After having turned the ring (2) as illustrated in FIG. 3, each retaining member (14) moves to the shallow end of the channel (21) of the ring (2), sticks out of the through hole (13), trespasses the passage (11), and blocks a paint ball (3). The passage (11) is now in a closed status.
  • To connect the load tube (1) to a paint ball gun (4) as illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, the flange (12) of the load tube (1) is flush with an opening (42) disposed at the top of a barrel (41) of the paint ball gun (4). A locking ring (5) is inserted to secure a hopper (6) or a power hopper (7) to the passage (11) of the load tube (1). FIGS. 4 and 5 show the status in relation to that illustrated in FIG. 2. The retaining members (14) retreat into the through holes (13) of the load tube (1) to open up the passage (11) for the paint balls (3) in the hopper (6) or the power hopper (7) to drop into the barrel (41) of the paint ball gun (4).
  • As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7 showing the status of that as illustrated in FIG. 3, the ring (2) is turned for each of the retaining members of the load tube (1) to stay on the shallow end of the channel (21), and the passage (11) is closed due to the reduction in size by the retaining members (14) to stop the paint balls (3) above the retaining members (14) from falling into the barrel (41). Few rounds of paint ball remaining in the passage (11) would be consumed as needed without wasting any extra paint ball.
  • Another preferred embodiment of the present invention, as illustrated in FIG. 8, comprises a load tube (1A) and a ring (2A).
  • The load tube (1A) includes a plurality of retaining members (14A), a passage (11A) inside and a flange (12A) outside. The load tube (1A) is provided with a plurality of through holes (13A) above the flange (12A) to accommodate the retaining members (14A). Each retaining member (14A) in this preferred embodiment is a ball. The load tube (1A) further comprises a plurality of locking units (15). Each locking unit (15) contains a threaded member (151), an elastic member (152), and a retaining member (153). The loader tube (1A) is provided with a plurality of threaded holes (16) to fasten the locking units (15). The elastic member (152) is a spring, and the retaining member (153) is a ball in this preferred embodiment.
  • The ring (2A) is placed on the flange (12A) of the load tube (1A) and comprises a plurality of channels (21A) corresponding in position to the through holes (13A) of the load tube (1A). Each channel (21A) is a slot made deeper at the center and gradually shallower towards both ends. A locking hole (22) is disposed at the center of each channel (21A) to be retained by the respective locking member (15).
  • As illustrated in FIG. 9, the passage (11A) is open when the retaining member (153) of each locking unit (15) is located into the respective locking hole (22) of the ring (2A). Each retaining member (14A) retreats into the respective through hole (13A) of the load tube (1A) to ensure that the passage (11A) is well facilitated while providing proper tension to hold the locking units (15) in position, preventing jammed paint balls inside the load tube (1A) due to turning off the switch by accident during the game.
  • FIG. 10 shows the passage (11A) in a closed status by turning the ring (2A) clockwise or counter-clockwise for the channels (21A) of the ring (2A) to push the retaining members (14A) out of the through holes (13A) to block up the passage (11A).
