Abstract

A hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure includes a backspin bullet tube having an interior provided with a passage, and an elastic adjusting piece mounted in the passage of the backspin bullet tube. The elastic adjusting piece is provided with multiple grooves that divide a bottom face of the elastic adjusting piece into multiple friction sections. A water bullet enters the backspin bullet tube and contacts the elastic adjusting piece. The water bullet contacts the friction sections and produces a friction force. When the water bullet leaves the friction sections and enters the grooves, the water bullet is forced by the friction force between the water bullet and the friction sections and produces backspin rates which produce centrifugal forces which force water of the water bullet outward through the grooves.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure comprising:
 a backspin bullet tube; and   an elastic adjusting piece mounted in the backspin bullet tube;   wherein:   the backspin bullet tube has an interior provided with a passage extending therethrough, the backspin bullet tube has a first end provided with a connecting portion connected with a barrel, the backspin bullet tube has a second end provided with a bullet outlet, the passage is provided with a positioning recess, the passage is provided with two slideways arranged symmetrically;   the elastic adjusting piece has an arcuate shape, the elastic adjusting piece is mounted in the passage of the backspin bullet tube, the elastic adjusting piece has a top provided with a positioning portion fitted into the positioning recess, the elastic adjusting piece is provided with two side wings fitted into the two slideways respectively, the elastic adjusting piece is provided with multiple grooves, the grooves divide a bottom face of the elastic adjusting piece into multiple friction sections;   a water bullet enters the backspin bullet tube through the connecting portion and contacts the elastic adjusting piece;   the water bullet contacts the friction sections and produces a friction force;   when the water bullet leaves one of the friction sections and enters one of the grooves, the water bullet is forced by the friction force between the water bullet and one of the friction sections and produces a respective backspin rate which produces a centrifugal force which forces partial water of the water bullet outward through one of the grooves;   when the water bullet leaves the friction sections and enters the grooves, the water bullet is forced by the friction force between the water bullet and the friction sections and produces backspin rates which produce centrifugal forces which force water of the water bullet outward through the grooves so that the hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure adjusts the backspin rates of the water bullet in a stepless regulating manner.   
     
     
         2 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein each of the two slideways has a horizontal top and an inclined bottom, and the bottom is inclined from the connecting portion toward the bullet outlet. 
     
     
         3 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the elastic adjusting piece has a first end located adjacent to the connecting portion and a second co-planar with the bullet outlet, and the two side wings have an axis adjacent to the connecting portion to move in the two slideways in a sector manner. 
     
     
         4 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the backspin bullet tube is provided with an adjusting hole located adjacent to the bullet outlet, and an adjusting member is mounted in the adjusting hole and has a bottom pressing the positioning portion. 
     
     
         5 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the elastic adjusting piece has a first end located adjacent to the connecting portion and a second co-planar with the bullet outlet, and the two side wings have an axis adjacent to the connecting portion to move in the two slideways in a sector manner. 
     
     
         6 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein a length of the elastic adjusting piece, a length of the friction sections, and a length of the grooves have a ratio of 1:0.05:0.05 to 1:0.1:0.15. 
     
     
         7 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the length of the elastic adjusting piece is 10 mm to 100 mm, the length of the friction sections is 0.5 mm to 10 mm, and the length of the grooves is 0.5 mm to 15 mm. 
     
     
         8 . The hydro-blaster toy gun ballistic backspin control structure as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the optimum length of the elastic adjusting piece is 20 mm to 40 mm, the optimum length of the friction sections is 1 mm to 5 mm, and the optimum length of the grooves is 1 mm to 2 mm.
