Fastening device for the pellet dropping member of a paint-pellet gun

Abstract

A fastening device for the pellet-dropping member of a paint-pellet gun includes a gun body fixed with a pellet dropping member and having a pellet-dropping hole, two support edges and two threaded holes. A pellet-dropping member is assembled on the pellet-dropping hole, having a support base and a sleeve. The support base has a pellet intake, two lugs, male threads and a positioning member cut with plural vertical notches and provided with an annular tapering edge. The sleeve is threadably fitted around the support base, having its upper inner wall formed with a slope matching with the tapering edge of the support base fixed on the support edges. After a pellet-storing case is inserted in the pellet-dropping member, the sleeve is screwed downward to force the positioning member to tighten the pellet-storing case.
