Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application 60/618,534, filed Oct. 14, 2004, hereby incorporated by reference.
- The present invention generally relates to water amusement devices and more particularly pertains to a new water spraying amusement device for allowing a user to shoot water for entertainment purposes from a handgrip worn on the knuckles and connected to a pressurizing pump worn on the user's forearm. The pressurizing pump is connected to a water tank worn either on the user's back or around the user's midsection.
- Water amusement devices are known in the prior art. The toy industry is extremely competitive with numerous and varying styles developed in an attempt to profit from the inherent popularity of water toys. The most traditional forms of water spraying amusement devices are water guns which are activated by a pumping action, either manually through a trigger or automatically through a battery operated motor. Because the volume of water expelled in such water guns is limited, there is a need for a water spraying amusement device that can hold a large volume of water in order to reduce the number of refill trips to a water source. There also is a need for a water spraying amusement device capable of allowing a user to increase and maintain pressure within the device because the range of water expelled from prior art devices is limited.
- Further, prior art devices require a user to grasp and hold on to a handle portion. These devices, however, may slip from a user's grip if the user is running around, potentially causing injury to the user or damage to the devices. There is a need then to provide a water spraying amusement device that is connected to the user's hand in such a way as to reduce the potential for injury or damage caused by the device slipping from the user's grip.
- Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a water spraying amusement device capable of holding a large volume of water to reduce the number of refill trips to a water source.
- It is another object of the present invention to provide a water spraying amusement device capable of allowing a user to increase and maintain pressure within the device in order to increase the range of water expelled from the device.
- It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a water spraying amusement device capable of being connected to the user's hand in such a way as to reduce injury to the user or damage to the device caused by the device slipping from the user's grip.
- The present invention is directed to a water spraying amusement device that comprises a handgrip, a pressurizing pump, and a water tank. Both the handgrip and the pressurizing pump are connected to the water tank via hoses. The handgrip fits around the knuckles of a user's hand in such a way as to reduce accidental slippage from the user's grip. The pressurizing pump increases and maintains water pressure as to improve the range of water expelled from the device. The water tank is capable of holding a large volume of water to reduce the number of refill trips to a water source.

user grips handgrip 100 by placing his or her fingers intofinger holes 10. Placinghandgrip 100 over the user's knuckles reduces accidental slippage from the user's grip in comparison to conventional water gun handgrips. Water travels from a water tank (seeFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 below) to handgrip 100 viaouter hose 20. Fitting 14 connectsouter hose 20 tohandgrip 100. Water travels fromouter hose 20 through firstinner hose 22 toouter chamber 32. - When
trigger 12 is not depressed, water and pressure build up inouter chamber 32 becausevalve 28, held in place by an opposing spring force exerted byspring 26, prevents water from traveling beyondouter chamber 32. Whentrigger 12 is depressed by the user's forefinger and middle finger,spring 26 compresses and allowsvalve 28 to open, allowing water to move fromouter chamber 32 intoinner chamber 30. Water then moves frominner chamber 30 through secondinner hose 24 until it is expelled throughspray nozzles 18. - Water pressure is increased as the water travels through the various hoses because of decreasing hose diameters. Various diameters may be used for the hoses so long as the diameter of
outer hose 20 is greater than the diameter of firstinner hose 22 and the diameter of firstinner hose 22 is greater than the diameter of secondinner hose 24. - The user can control the degree to which water is expelled through
spray nozzles 18.Spray nozzles 18 may be adjusted to shoot varying sprays of water, anything from a fine mist to a strong, steady stream. The user may also modify waterpressure entering handgrip 100 by adjustingpressure setting knob 16, which increases or decreases the amount of water allowed to enter firstinner hose 22 fromouter hose 20.

user grips handgrip 200 by placing his or her fingers intofinger holes 54. Placinghandgrip 200 over the user's knuckles reduces accidental slippage from the user's grip in comparison to conventional water gun handgrips. Water travels from a water tank (seeFIG. 8 andFIG. 9 below) to handgrip 200 viaouter hose 20. Fitting 38 connectsouter hose 20 tohandgrip 200. Water travels fromouter hose 20 through firstinner hose 42 toouter chamber 48. - When
trigger 36 is not depressed, water and pressure build up inouter chamber 48 becausevalve 56, held in place by an opposing spring force exerted byspring 46, prevents water from traveling beyondouter chamber 48. Whentrigger 36 is depressed by a user's palm,spring 36 compresses and allowsvalve 56 to open, allowing water to move fromouter chamber 48 intoinner chamber 50. Water then moves frominner chamber 50 through secondinner hose 44 until it is expelled throughspray nozzles 52. - Water pressure is increased as the water travels through the various hoses because of decreasing hose diameters. Various diameters may be used for the hoses so long as the diameter of
outer hose 20 is greater than the diameter of firstinner hose 42 and the diameter of firstinner hose 42 is greater than the diameter of secondinner hose 44. - The user may modify water
pressure entering handgrip 200 by adjustingpressure setting knob 34, which increases or decreases the amount of water allowed to enter firstinner hose 42 fromouter hose 20. The user may further increase water pressure by utilizing a pressurizing pump (seeFIG. 6 andFIG. 7 below). - As shown in
