US12687371 - Air gun with onboard electric pump
The patent describes an air gun equipped with an onboard electric pump that charges high-pressure air into an air tube assembly, allowing for the projection of pellets. The system includes a firing mechanism, a valve assembly for controlling air flow, and a pressure monitoring system to ensure optimal performance.
Claim 1
1 . An air gun, comprising: an air tube assembly; an onboard electric pump assembly mounted within the air gun and connected to the air tube assembly, wherein the onboard electric pump assembly is configured to charge air into the air tube assembly, and the onboard electric pump assembly comprises a controller; a valve assembly configured to control air flow and pressure within the air tube assembly; a firing mechanism assembly operable by a user; and an air release valve assembly located between the air tube assembly and the firing mechanism assembly, wherein the air release valve assembly is configured to be triggered by the firing mechanism assembly to release the air in the air tube assembly to project pellets, wherein the onboard electric pump assembly comprises a multi-stage air pumping assembly configured to sequentially increase air pressure in multiple stages to a predetermined level before charging the air tube assembly, and the controller is connected to a pressure monitor system configured to: monitor pressure in the multi-stage air pumping assembly; and monitor pressure in the air tube assembly. an air tube assembly; an onboard electric pump assembly mounted within the air gun and connected to the air tube assembly, wherein the onboard electric pump assembly is configured to charge air into the air tube assembly, and the onboard electric pump assembly comprises a controller; a valve assembly configured to control air flow and pressure within the air tube assembly; a firing mechanism assembly operable by a user; and an air release valve assembly located between the air tube assembly and the firing mechanism assembly, wherein the air release valve assembly is configured to be triggered by the firing mechanism assembly to release the air in the air tube assembly to project pellets, wherein the onboard electric pump assembly comprises a multi-stage air pumping assembly configured to sequentially increase air pressure in multiple stages to a predetermined level before charging the air tube assembly, and the controller is connected to a pressure monitor system configured to: monitor pressure in the multi-stage air pumping assembly; and monitor pressure in the air tube assembly.
