ABSTRACT:
A water-shooting toy configured as a bow and arrow comprises a self-contained water pump sub-assembly and a case assembly. The pump sub-assembly includes a cylinder defining a pump chamber, a piston having a rod extending out from a body and a handle that is grasped by a user for manual operation of the pump. A nozzle is joined to the other end of the cylinder and has an opening that forms a stream of water upon operation of the pump. A one-way valve in the discharge passage permits water to flow through the discharge passage only from the pump chamber to the nozzle and prevents induction of air into the pump chamber through the nozzle inlet passage. A water passage into the pump chamber has a one-way inlet valve that admits water to the pump chamber upon the intake stroke of the pump and prevents discharge of water through the inlet passage upon the delivery stroke. The case is configured to resemble a bow and is composed of two wall members joined together and have wall portions that together define a water reservoir. The wall members have a pair of oppositely located openings intersected by the juncture between the case parts. The pump sub-assembly adjacent the water inlet is received within the reservoir with respective wall members straddling the pump sub-assembly, and the pump sub-assembly is joined and sealed to the case assembly within the case assembly openings.
