ABSTRACT:
A toy that selectively shoots (1) a compressible ball, (2) a compressible ball and a water spray, (3) a water spray and (4) a water stream comprises a tank adapted to contain air and water under pressure, a pump for pumping air into the tank, a discharge valve having an inlet and an outlet, a water supply conduit leading from the tank to the discharge valve inlet and an air supply conduit leading from the tank to the discharge valve inlet. A cap or other device is provided for selectively opening and closing the air supply conduit so as to permit or prevent, respectively, air from flowing from the tank to the discharge valve. A ball magazine defines an air pressure chamber that receives a compressible ball and has an opening that is smaller than the ball so that the ball is discharged through the opening only when a predetermined force due to air pressure in the chamber is applied to it, whereupon the ball is deformed and is discharged from the magazine. A discharge conduit leads from the discharge valve outlet to the ball magazine chamber and has a nozzle opening into the chamber.
