1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a shooting target structure for a toy gun, and more particularly to a shooting appliance which has movable targets and is able to collect pellets automatically and provides sound, light and scoring effects.
2. Description of the Prior Art
There are three types of toy guns for shooting, namely, a slingshot gun, an electric gun and a gas gun. No matter what kind of toy gun, the shooter has to find the target for shooting so as to practice shooting and to enhance amusement. In general, the shooter uses a paper target or other articles as the target to practice shooting. These articles are immovable. After a period of time, the shooter may feel boring and cannot know whether the target is hit or not. Besides, the BB pullets will rebound everywhere after shooting. It is a troublesome task to collect the BB pullets. Accordingly, the inventor of the present invention has devoted himself based on his many years of practical experiences to solve these problems.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a shooting target structure, wherein the targets are movable to enhance shooting amusement and to promote shooting techniques.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a shooting target structure, wherein the box is able to limit falling of the pullets and has a buffer effect to prevent the BB pullets from rebounding outward after shooting.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a shooting target structure, wherein the bottom of the box is inclined and has a pullet collection through to collect the BB pullets automatically.
A still further object of the present invention is to provide a shooting target structure, wherein the box is provided with a display unit and a sound member to cooperate with an electronic signal for the shooter to know whether the target is hit or not and to know the scoring, and to enhance amusement by sound and light effects.
In order to achieve the aforesaid objects, the shooting target structure of the present invention comprises a box. The box is a hollow box.
The box comprises left, right, top and rear casing boards and a bottom board. The casing boards are made of cardboard or plastic steel. The box has an open front.
The inner sides of the casing boards and the bottom board of the box are provided with buffer members. The buffer members are made of a soft material, such as PU, but not limited.
The bottom board is inclined and has a lower end provided with a pellet collection trough.
The bottom board is provided with two slide rails. The pellet collection trough can be slidably moved through the two slide rails.
The box comprises a front top board at a front top edge thereof.
The box comprises a front bottom board at a front bottom edge thereof.
Between the front top board and the front bottom board is open.
A display unit is provided on the front top board. The display unit is able to display light or numeral.
The lower edge of the front top board is provided with a luminous member. The upper edge of the front bottom board is provided with another luminous member. The two luminous members are to assist in marking the shooting area.
A sound member is provided at the outside of the box. The sound member is a loudspeaker.
The sound member is disposed on the outside of the casing boards of the box.
The bottom board inside the box is provided with a target transmission device.
The target transmission device comprises a power member. The power member has an output shaft fitted with an active transmission member. The active transmission member is connected with a transmission member. The transmission member is connected with a passive transmission member. The active transmission member and the passive transmission member are gears. The transmission member is a chain. The passive transmission member has an axle which is coaxially connected with a roller. The roller is fitted with a conveying member. The conveying member is further connected with another roller.
The power member is a motor having a speed change function.
The conveying member is a conveyer.
At least one target is provided on the conveying member.
The target comprises a base. The base is transversely provided with a shaft. The shaft is connected with a board member. Through the shaft, the board can stand or topple down relative to the base and cooperate with a circuit to sound an electronic signal when the board topples down relative to the base. The target is made of a material which is durable for hitting, and is able to bear 20 joule hit by BB pellets.
The electronic signal cooperates with the display unit or the sound member to output a lamp signal or sound.
The box further comprises an electronic control unit for controlling or setting scoring, adjusting the speed or direction of the motor, or operating the sound effects or the brightness of the luminous member.
Embodiments of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in
The box 1 is a hollow box. The box 1 comprises left, right, top and rear casing boards 11 and a bottom board 111. The box 1 has an open front. The inner sides of the casing boards 11 and the bottom board 111 of the box 1 are provided with buffer members 12. The buffer members 12 are made of a soft material, such as PU, but not limited. The bottom board 111 is inclined and has a lower end provided with a pellet collection trough 13. The bottom board 111 is provided with two slide rails 131. The pellet collection trough 13 can be slidably moved through the two slide rails 131. The box 1 comprises a front top board 14 at a front top edge thereof and a front bottom board 15 at a front bottom edge thereof. Between the front top board 14 and the front bottom board 15 is open. The lower edge of the front top board 14 is provided with a luminous member 141. The upper edge of the front bottom board 15 is provided with a luminous member 151.
The target transmission device 2 is disposed on the bottom board 111 inside the box 1. The target transmission device 2 comprises a power member 21. The power member 21 has an output shaft fitted with an active transmission member 22. The active transmission member 22 is connected with a transmission member 23. The transmission member 23 is connected with a passive transmission member 24. The active transmission member 22 and the passive transmission member 24 are gears. The transmission member 23 is a chain. The passive transmission member 24 has an axle which is coaxially connected with a roller 25. The roller 25 is fitted with a conveying member 26. The conveying member 26 is further connected with another roller 27. The conveying member 26 is a conveyer. At least one target 3 is provided on the conveying member 26.
The target 3 comprises a base 31. The base 31 is transversely provided with a shaft 33. The shaft 33 is connected with a board member 32. Through the shaft 33, the board 32 can stand or topple down relative to the base 31 and cooperate with a circuit (not shown in the drawings) to sound an electronic signal.
A display unit 4 is provided on the front top board 14. The display unit 4 is able to display light or numeral.
A sound member 5 is provided at the outside of the box 1. The sound member 5 is a loudspeaker.
When in use, referring to
The box 1 further comprises an electronic control unit for controlling or setting scoring, adjusting the speed or direction of the motor, or operating the sound effects or the brightness of the luminous member.
