Abstract
A toy hand grenade has a plurality of bores which receive soft darts. A launcher is received in each bore and is spring loaded. An actuator retains the launchers in a spring-loaded, unactuated position. The actuator is displaceable relative to the body to release the launchers and substantially concurrently eject the darts from the hand grenade. A pin or a clip may be employed to lock the actuator in a locked position.
Claims12
A toy hand grenade comprising:
- a retainer body having a plurality of bores;
- a catch having an upper latch and an opposed trigger lever;
- a spring loaded launcher for each said bore engaged by said catch;
- an actuator extending exteriorly from said body and slidable therewith between an actuated and an unactuated position, said actuator interiorly engageable against said launcher to retain said launcher in a cocked position when said actuator is in an unactuated position;
- and
- a plurality of darts each received in a said bore and engageable against a said launcher,
- so that when said actuator is forced to the actuated position, said actuator causes said trigger levers to release said launchers and cause said darts to be ejected from said bores.

A toy hand grenade comprising:
- a retainer body having a plurality of bores;
- a pivotal catch having an upper latch and an opposed trigger lever;
- a spring loaded launcher for each said bore engaged by said catch;
- an actuator extending exteriorly from said body and slidable therewith between an actuated and an unactuated position, said actuator interiorly engageable against said launcher to retain said launcher in a cocked position when said actuator is in an unactuated position;
- a removable member for locking said actuator in the unactuated position;
- and
- a plurality of darts each received in a said bore and engageable against a said launcher,
- so that when said member is removed and said actuator is forced to the actuated position, said actuator causes said trigger levers to pivot to release said launchers and cause said darts to be ejected from said bores.
