Abstract
A water gun 10 having a storage tank (18), a pressure tank (19) and an electric pump (28) for conveying liquid from the storage tank to the pressure tank. The conveyance of liquid into the pressure tank causes the liquid to be pressurized by air compressed within the pressure tank. A safety switch (42) limits the pressurization of the liquid. The pressurized liquid is released through a nozzle (21) coupled to the pressure tank.

8. A portable water gun comprising
a housing defining a barrel and a handle; -
a trigger; a liquid storage reservoir; a liquid pressure tank; an electrically motorized pump; an electric power source coupled to said electrically motorized pump; first conduit means for conveying liquid contained within said storage reservoir to said electrically actuated pump; second conduit means for conveying liquid from said electrically actuated pump to said pressure tank; third conduit means for conveying liquid from said pressure tank to ambience; and control means coupled to said trigger for controlling the flow of liquid through said third conduit means upon actuation of said trigger, whereby liquid within the storage reservoir is pumped into the pressure tank through the first and second conduits thereby compressing air within the pressure tank so as to pressurize liquid therein which is controllably released from the pressure tank through the third conduit means by actuation of the trigger controlled control means. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
