DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, the present invention is to provide a linking mechanism of an air gun A, which is constituted by a frame A1, a slide A2, a grip A3, a trigger A4, a hammer B, and a left safety piece E.
An end of the frame A1 of the air gun A is provided with the grip A3 which allows a user to hold, and the slide A2, which is extended on the frame A1, is able to slide reciprocally. A side of the frame A1 is provided with the left safety piece E, wherein functions of safety, single-shot shooting, and multi-shot shooting can be achieved by turning the left safety piece E. Moreover, an interior of the frame A1 is latched with a trigger-and-hammer seat G, and a safety holder F is located at a place where the frame A1 is latched with the trigger-and-hammer seat G, wherein the left safety piece E is driven by the safety holder F.
The left safety piece E is transfixed through a sheath hole A5 of the frame A1, and proceeds to be extended into a lower sheath hole G4 of the trigger-and-hammer seat G, and into a slot B1 of the hammer B, as well as is mutually sheathed with a right safety piece E1. An end of the left safety piece E is provided with a hooking slot E2 which is used to mutually latch with a pressing part C21 of a hammer linking piece C2, wherein an end of the hammer linking piece C2 is provided with a sheath hole C22 which is used to sheathe with a shaft C18 of a right hammer shutter C3, and the shaft C18 of the right hammer shutter C3 can be slid by the sheath hole C22 of the hammer linking piece C2. In addition, a first contact surface C23 and a second contact surface C24 of the hammer linking piece C2 are corresponding to a locking block C8 of a trigger linking rod C1, such that when a user presses the trigger A4, the locking block C8 of the trigger linking rod Cl can be slid on the first contact surface C23 of the second contact surface C24, wherein the trigger A4 is connected with a small hole C28 of the trigger linking rod C1, and the locking block C8 of the trigger linking rod Cl is extended to a projected block C9 at a side rim.
A groove G2 and a latching trench G3 of the trigger-and-hammer seat G provide for a movement of a depression block C10 of a hammer deactivator C5 and a depression body C14 of a firing pin shutter C7, wherein the depression block C10 of the hammer deactivator C5 is extended to a push rod C12 at an end, and the push rod C12 is mutually linked with a shaft C16 of a left hammer shutter C4, with a side of the left hammer shutter C4 being an abutting surface C17. The abutting surface C17 is used to abut with a first spring H1 of a hammer seat spring leaf H, a second spring H2 of the hammer seat spring leaf H is abutted with an abutting surface D6 of a firing pin carrier D1, and a third spring H3 of the hammer seat spring leaf H is at the same time abutted with the right hammer shutter C3 and the hammer linking piece C2. Furthermore, an end of the firing pin carrier D1 is provided with a hole D5 which is corresponding to a shaft hole C26 of a firing pin linking rod C6 and a shaft hole D4 of a firing pin D, and through a transfixing of a firing pin shaft D3 and then by a locking with a locking ring D2, the firing pin carrier D1 can be prevented from falling off.
An interior of the trigger-and-hammer seat G is provided with a shooting control mechanism C which includes the trigger linking rod C1, the hammer linking piece C2, the right hammer shutter C3, the left hammer shutter C4, the hammer deactivator C5, the firing pin linking rod C6, and the firing pin shutter C7 that are linked with one another, and is transfixed into a shaft hole C11 of the hammer deactivator C5, a shaft hole C13 of the firing pin opening and closing device C7, a shaft hole C15 of the left hammer shutter C4, a long shaft hole C25 of the firing pin linking rod C6, a shaft hole C29 of the right hammer shutter C3, a hole C20 of the hammer linking piece C2, and a right safety piece holder F1, and is fixed on a shaft hole G1 of the trigger-and-hammer seat G, through a front shaft G5.
Referring to FIGS. 2, 4, and 5, the frame A1 is installed with the slide A2 and the grip A3, the slide A2 is pulled backward to enable the hammer B to be located at a chambering position, and the trigger A4 is pressed to shoot, wherein the functions of safety, single-shot shooting, and multi-shot shooting of the air gun A can be controlled through the left safety piece E, and the shooting functions are driven by the shooting control mechanism C, thereby increasing an entertainment effect for the user.
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 4 to 6, the hammer linking piece C2 and the right hammer shutter C3 are abutted by the third spring H3 of the hammer seat spring leaf H (as shown in FIG. 2). When the air gun A is in a safety-off condition, the left safety piece E is turned to a safety position, and can at the same time drive the hooking slot E2 and the pressing part C21 of the hammer linking piece C2, so as to enable the hammer linking piece C2 to be located at the safety position.
Referring to FIGS. 12 to 14, when the user pulls the slide A2 backward to a bottom, as the depression block C10 of the hammer deactivator C5 is driven by a sliding slot A7 of the slide A2, the hammer deactivator C5 will push up the slide A2 by being subjected to a spring force of a compression spring A6. At the same time, due to a spring force of the first spring H1 of the hammer seat spring leaf H, the abutting surface C17 of the left hammer shutter C4 will push the left hammer shutter C4 to a first locking hook B3 of the hammer B to be mutually latched.
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 4 to 6, next, the right hammer shutter C3 and the hammer linking piece C2 are also compressed inward through the first spring H3 of the hammer seat spring leaf H (as shown in FIG. 2), such that a locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3 are mutually latched with a second locking hook B4 of the hammer B (as shown in FIG. 2).
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 12 to 14, at this time, a gap is generated between a locking hook C30 of the left hammer shutter C4 and the first locking hook B3 of the hammer B, in order to increase a lifetime of the left hammer shutter C4. Then, the slide A2 is slid to an initial position from a bottom, the depression block C10 of the hammer deactivator C5 pushes down the hammer deactivator C5 along the sliding slot A7 of the slide A2, so as to enable the push rod C12 of the hammer deactivator C5 to be abutted on the shaft C16 of the left hammer shutter C4 (as shown in FIG. 2), and to separate the left hammer shutter C4 with the hammer B. At this time, the hammer B is located at a firing position.
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 4 to 6, after pressing the trigger A4, the locking block C8 of the trigger linking rod C1 is slid below the second contact surface C24 of the hammer linking piece C2 to generate a gap between the locking block C8 and the second contact surface C24, which prohibits the locking block C8 of the trigger linking rod Cl from touching with the hammer linking piece C2. Accordingly, the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B (as shown in FIG. 2) proceeds to be latched with the locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3, and prevents the hammer B from hitting the abutting surface C27 of the firing pin linking rod C6, thereby prohibiting the air gun from A firing, and reaching a safety condition for the air gun A.
Referring to FIGS. 4, 7, 8, and 9, when the air gun A is to proceed with the single-shot shooting, the left safety piece E is turned to a position of single-shot shooting, to drive the hooking slot E2 at the same time, and to press down the pressing part C21 of the hammer linking piece C2, thereby enabling the hammer linking piece C2 to be located at the single-shot position.
Referring to FIGS. 12 to 14, when the user pulls the slide A2 backward, the hammer deactivator C5 will push up the slide A2 by the spring force of the compression spring A6, and the depression block C10 of the hammer deactivator C5 will be extended into the slide A2 along the sliding slot A7 of the slide A2. At the same time, the left hammer shutter C4 will be compressed inward by the first spring H1 of the hammer seat spring leaf H, such that the locking hook C30 of the left hammer shutter C4 is extended into the first locking hook B3 of the hammer B to be latched mutually.
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 4, 7, 8, and 9, then, the right hammer shutter C3 and the hammer linking piece C2 are also compressed inward through the third spring H3 of the hammer seat spring leaf H (as shown in FIG. 2), such that the locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3 can be latched with the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B (as shown in FIG. 2).
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 12 to 14, at this time, a gap is generated between the locking hook C30 of the left hammer shutter C4 and the first locking hook B3 of the hammer B, to increase a lifetime of the left hammer shutter C4, and the second spring H2 of the hammer seat spring leaf H will drive the firing pin carrier D1 to drive the firing pin D by using the spring force of itself. In the mean time, the depression body C14 of the firing pin shutter C7 will press down the firing pin shutter C7 along a top slot A9 of the slide A2, and separate the firing pin D with an air valve 11 of a magazine 1, enabling the air valve 11 to be in a closed condition. Next, when the slide A2 slides to an initial position from a bottom, the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B (as shown in FIG. 2) will keep on being latched with the locking hook C19 (as shown in FIG. 2) of the right hammer shutter C3 (as shown in FIG. 2). At the same time, the hammer deactivator C5 will be pressed down along the sliding slot A7 of the slide A2, enabling the push rod C12 of the hammer deactivator C5 to touch with the shaft C16 of the left hammer shutter C4 (as shown in FIG. 2), and allowing the left hammer shutter C4 to be separated with the hammer B. In addition, the depression body C14 of the firing pin shutter C7 will push up the firing pin shutter C7 through a spring force of a spring A10.
Accordingly, referring to FIGS. 2, 4, 7, 8, 9, and 13, the hammer B is at a firing position, and the trigger A4 is kept at the firing condition if the trigger A4 is pressed, such that the locking block C8 of the trigger linking rod C1 can touch with the first contact surface C23 of the hammer linking piece C2 first. At the same time, the hammer linking piece C2 will drive the right hammer shutter C3, enabling the locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3 to be separated with the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B4 (as shown in FIG. 2), and at this time, the hammer B will be restored to an initial condition by being deactivated, which enables a top hitting part B2 of the hammer B to hit on the abutting surface C27 of the firing pin linking rod C6, wherein the firing pin linking rod C6 will drive the firing pin D (as shown in FIG. 13) and enable the firing pin D (as shown in FIG. 13) to abut on the air valve 11, allowing the air valve 11 to be in a discharge condition. Accordingly, the air valve 11 is discharged and drives the slide A2, allowing the slide A2 to easily slide on the frame A1, wherein a sliding track A8 of the slide A2 will press down the projected block C9 of the trigger linking rod C1, and enable the projected block C9 of the trigger linking rod C1 to slide to a lower edge of the second contact surface C24 of the hammer linking piece C2, such that the trigger linking rod C1 will be escaped from the trigger linking piece C2. Moreover, if a further firing is needed, then the trigger A2 should be pressed once more.
Referring to FIGS. 4, 10, and 11, when the air gun A is about to carry out the multi-shot shooting, the left safety piece E is turned to a multi-shot position, such that the left safety piece E can drive the hooking slot E2 at the same time, and the depression part C21 of the hammer linking piece C2 can press down more, enabling the hammer linking piece C2 to be located at the multi-shot position.
Referring to FIGS. 12 to 14, when the user pulls the slide A2 backward, the hammer deactivator C5 will push up the slide A2 by the spring force of the compression spring A6, and the depression block C10 of the hammer deactivator C5 will be extended into the slide A2 along the sliding slot A7 of the slide A2. In the mean time, the left hammer shutter C4 will be pressed inward by the first spring H1 of the hammer seat spring leaf H, and the locking hook C30 of the left hammer shutter C4 will be extended into the first locking hook B3 of the hammer B to be latched mutually.
Referring to FIGS. 2, 4, 10, and 11, next, the right hammer shutter C3 and the hammer linking piece C2 will be also compressed inward through the third spring H3 of the hammer seat spring leaf H (as shown in FIG. 2), enabling the locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3 to be latched with the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B.
Referring to FIG. 2 and FIGS. 12 to 14, at this time, a gap is generated between the locking hook C30 of the left hammer shutter C4 and the first locking hook B3 of the hammer B to increase a lifetime of the left hammer shutter C4, and the second spring H2 of the hammer seat spring leaf H will drive the firing pin carrier D1 with the spring force itself, to drive the firing pin D. At the same time, the depression body C14 of the firing pin shutter C7 will press down the firing pin shutter C7 along the top slot A9 of the slide A2, and separate the firing pin D with the air valve 11 of the magazine 1, such that the air valve 11 is in a closed condition. Then, when the slide A2 slides to an initial position from a bottom, the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B (as shown in FIG. 2) will keep on being latched with the locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3 (as shown in FIG. 2). In the mean time, the hammer deactivator C5 will be pressed down along the sliding slot A7 of the slide A2, enabling the push rod C12 of the hammer deactivator C5 to abut on the shaft C16 of the left hammer shutter C4 (as shown in FIG. 2), and separating the left hammer shutter C4 with the hammer B. In addition, the depression body C14 of the firing pin shutter C7 will push up the firing pin shutter C7 through the spring force of the compression spring A10.
Accordingly, referring to FIGS. 2, 4, 10, and 11, the hammer B will be located at the firing position, and the trigger A4 will be kept at the firing condition if it is pressed continuously, which enables the locking block C8 of the trigger linking rod C1 to act on the first contact surface C23 of the hammer linking piece C2. In addition, the hammer linking piece C2 will at the same time drive the right hammer shutter C3, enabling the locking hook C19 of the right hammer shutter C3 to be kept at a separation condition with the second locking hook B4 of the hammer B (as shown in FIG. 2). At this time, the hammer B will be restored to the initial condition, which enables the top hitting part B2 of the hammer B to hit on the abutting surface C27 of the firing pin linking rod C6, wherein the firing pin linking rod C6 will drive the firing pin D to be abutted on the air valve 11, allowing the air valve 11 to be in a discharge condition. Accordingly, the air valve 11 is discharging and drives the slide A2, due to that the projected block C9 of the trigger linking rod C1 is kept on being abutted on the first contact surface C23 of the hammer linking piece C2.
Referring to FIGS. 12 to 14, the depression block C10 of the hammer deactivator C5 is kept on acting in the sliding slot A7 of the slide A2, and at the same time, the depression body C14 of the firing pin shutter C7 is also kept on acting in the top slot A9 of the slide A2; therefore, the slide A2 can carry out a reciprocating action, enabling the air gun A to fire in multi-shot.
Referring to FIG. 14, the firing pin shutter C7 is used to control the time of discharging when the firing pin D is abutted on the air valve 11, so as to achieve a stable firing of the air gun A.
To further manifest the advancement and practicability of the present invention, the present invention is compared with a conventional zero gravity detector as follow.
