US12716680 - Pneumatic launching apparatus with positioning of plural rounds from breech to alignment passages of barrels and methods

Launcher apparatus and methods for toy projectile blaster air compression element cylinders with elongated breech bolts for fluid communication in alignment with projectile launching barrels capable of receiving and positioning two or more rounds advanced within the barrels from breech bolts. The piston is primed and prevented from advancing once retracted with a lock and catch mechanism. An interlock and pathway prevents subprime strokes. The air compression element receives the piston for generating fluid communication to outwardly launch received projectile rounds. The breech can receive projectiles with the breech bolt of the air compression element extending into the breech to position received projectiles into barrels.

US12716681 - Breechless projectile alignment module and launch methods for toy blaster apparatus

Launcher apparatus and methods for a toy projectile blaster with a breechless projectile alignment module having a receptacle or hopper for multiple received projectile rounds, a passage at the alignment module including a barrel seal to align received projectiles for launching through a blaster barrel, and a channel into the alignment module for a compressed air source. A pre-firing area defines a junction inside the alignment module extending between the receptacle, the channel, and the barrel seal. An actuator at the housing is linked with the compressed air source for causing compressed air to expel through the channel into the alignment module and outwardly launch the received projectile rounds.

US12644664 - Hopper stock projectiles magazine apparatus and methods for toy blaster system

Launcher system with apparatus and methods for a toy projectile blaster removably interfaced with shoulder or butt stock receptacle hopper for multiple additional projectiles, user operable providing a hopper receptacle passageway in alignment with a firing projectile launching element to a projectile launching barrel for discharging projectiles. The pre-firing area allows projectile rounds to be received, while coupling the hopper stock projectiles magazine holds projectiles located distally along an upper portion of the pre-firing area for communication to outwardly launch the received projectile rounds. A user operable barrier at the hopper stock projectiles magazine receptacle opens and feeds by gravity into the pre-firing area The hopper stock projectiles magazine receptacle tilts towards the breech for feeding received projectile received into the pre-firing area.

US12613076 - Pneumatic launching apparatus employing barrel cam driving pathways and methods

Launcher apparatus and methods of a toy projectile blaster piston air compression element and breech bolt operating through a barrel cam peripheral surface with a cylinder cam pathway track and piston cam pathways for driving contact and respective piston and cylinder timings. The barrel cam is rotatably disposed. Piston and cylinder follower ends contact the barrel cam pathways generating fluid communication to outwardly launch received projectile rounds. The breech can receive projectiles with the breech bolt of the air compression element extending into the breech to position a received projectile through the barrel seal, and a source of rotary motion or forward strokes and back strokes fires the projectiles.
