Abstract
A blowgun has a movable mouthpiece coupled to a barrel, wherein a soft, and preferably fluid-soaked projectile is inserted into the barrel through the mouthpiece via a continuous channel that is formed by the mouthpiece and the barrel. After loading of the projectile, the channel is closed by moving the mouthpiece relative to the barrel.
Claims15
A blowgun comprising:
- a barrel having a proximal portion with a discharge opening and a distal portion with a first opening and a second opening;
- a mouthpiece movably coupled to the distal portion of the barrel, wherein the mouthpiece is movable between a first position and a second position, the mouthpiece further comprising a load opening;
- wherein the mouthpiece has a first portion that is configured to receive a blast of air from a user's mouth and a second portion that provides at least part of the blast to the second opening of the distal portion;
- and
- wherein the load opening of the mouthpiece and the first opening of the distal portion form a continuous path that allows insertion of a projectile therethrough when the mouthpiece is in the first position, and wherein the continuous path is disrupted when the mouthpiece is in the second position.
A blowgun having a barrel and a mouthpiece movably coupled to the barrel, wherein a projectile is manually loaded into the barrel through the mouthpiece when the barrel is in a first position relative to the mouthpiece, and wherein the projectile is propelled from the barrel by a blast from a user's mouth through the mouthpiece when the barrel is in a second position relative to the mouthpiece.
