The first end of the pressing block is formed at the inlet end of the mounting tube, and the second end of the pressing block is formed at the ejecting end of the mounting tube. The thickness of the pressing block is gradually thickened from the first end to the second end of the pressing block. When a pellet mounted in the gun body is ejected out of the conventional toy gun, the thickness difference of the pressing block from the first end to the second end of the pressing block can provide a pressing pressure to the pellet, and this can provide a rotating force to the pellet to increase the ejection stroke of the pellet.

element 20 is mounted in the mounting segment of the first half-shell 41, is pressed against themounting tube 10 and has an inner side, an outer side, an upper end, a lower end, an extendingwing 21 and aholding segment 23. The inner side of the drivenelement 20 faces the external surface of themounting tube 10. The outer side of the drivenelement 20 faces the internal surface of the first half-shell 41. - The extending
wing 21 is elastic, is formed on and protrudes curvedly from the upper end of the drivenelement 20 and extends to the top segment of themounting tube 10. The extendingwing 21 has a free end, a bottom side, a top side and a protrudingpost 22. The free end of the extendingwing 21 extends to the top segment of themounting tube 10.

driving element 30 is movably mounted in the second half-shell 42, is pressed against the extendingwing 21 of the drivenelement 20 and has amain body 31, aturning tab 34 and a guidinggroove 35. Themain body 31 is movably mounted in the second half-shell 42 and has an inner side, an outer side, abottom end 32 and atop end 33. The inner side of themain body 31 faces the external surface of themounting tube 10. The outer side of themain body 31 faces the internal surface of the second half-shell 42. Thetop end 33 of themain body 31 extends above the top side of the extendingwing 21 to enable the inner side of themain body 31 at thetop end 33 to press against the top side of the extendingwing 21. - The
turning tab 34 is formed on and protrudes from the outer side of themain body 31 near thebottom end 32 of themain body 31, is movably connected to the second half-shell 42 and extends out of the external surface of the second half-shell 42 via the adjustingslot 47. With reference toFIGS. 2 and 5 , theturning tab 34 has anengaging protrusion 341. The engagingprotrusion 341 is formed on and protrudes from the outer side of themain body 31 adjacent to theturning tab 34 and selectively engages one of the engagingteeth 471 of the adjustingslot 47 to adjust the position of themain body 31 relative to the drivenelement 20, the mountingtube 10 and the second half-shell 42. - With reference to
FIGS. 2 and 5 , the guidinggroove 35 is formed in the inner side of themain body 31 from thetop end 33 to thebottom end 32 of themain body 31 for mounting themain body 31 around the extendingwing 21 of the drivenelement 20 and to enable themain body 31 to press against the internal surface of thefirst shell 41 and the extendingwing 21, and the guidinggroove 35 has a depth gradually deepened from thebottom end 32 to thetop end 33 of themain body 31. In other words, the depth of the guidinggroove 35 at thetop end 33 of themain body 31 is deeper than the depth of the guidinggroove 35 at thebottom end 32 of themain body 31. - In use, with reference to
FIGS. 2 and 5 , apellet 50 is mounted between the mountingtube 10 and the inner end of theinner barrel 44, and the pressing pressure of thepressing block 12 that is pressed against thepellet 50 is provided by themain body 31 pressing against the extendingwing 21 to enable the protrudingpost 22 to press against the top segment of the mountingtube 10. - With reference to
FIGS. 3 and 5 , when theturning tab 34 is held on the lower end of the adjustingslot 47 by the engagingprotrusion 341 engaging one of the engagingteeth 471 at the lower end of the adjustingslot 47, themain body 31 is pressed against the extendingwing 21 near thetop end 33 of themain body 31. With reference toFIGS. 6 and 7 , when theturning tab 34 is pushed upwardly relative to the second half-shell 42 along the adjustingslot 47 and is held in the adjustingslot 47 near the upper end of the adjustingslot 47 by the engagingprotrusion 341 engaging one of the engagingteeth 471 near the upper end of the adjustingslot 47, thetop end 33 of themain body 31 is moved on and across the protrudingpost 22 of the extendingwing 21 and themain body 31 is pressed against the extendingwing 21 between thetop end 33 and thebottom end 32 of themain body 31 to enable the top segment of the mountingtube 10 to deform to press against thepellet 50. - According to the above-mentioned operation of the
turning tab 34, because the depth of the guidinggroove 35 at thetop end 33 of themain body 31 is deeper than the depth of the guidinggroove 35 at thebottom end 32 of themain body 31, the pressing pressure of thepressing block 12 when thetop end 33 of themain body 31 is moved on and across the protrudingpost 22 of the extendingwing 21 is larger than the pressing pressure ofpressing block 12 when thetop end 33 of themain body 31 is moved above the protrudingpost 22 of the extendingwing 21. - With the gradual changes in depth of the guiding
groove 35, themain body 31 of the drivingelement 30 can provide different pressing pressures to thepellet 50 via the protrudingpost 22 of the extendingwing 21 and thepressing block 12 of the mountingtube 10. Furthermore, thepellet 50 can receive different pressing pressures from thepressing block 12 of the mountingtube 10, when the toy gun is fired, the rotating force and the ejection stroke of thepellet 50 vary with the changes of the pressing pressure. In other words, when thepellet 50 receives a larger pressing pressure from thepressing block 12, the toy gun can provide a larger rotating force and a longer ejection stroke to thepellet 50. - Consequently, because the depth of the guiding
groove 35 is different from thetop end 33 to thebottom end 32 of themain body 31, a user can adjust the rotating force and the ejection stroke of thepellet 50 between the mountingtube 10 and theinner barrel 44 by pushing theturning tab 34 relative to the second half-shell 42 along the adjustingslot 47 to provide different pressing pressures to thepellet 50 via themain body 31, the protrudingpost 22 of the extendingwing 21, and thepressing block 12 of the mountingtube 10. Thepellet 50 can be ejected by the toy gun with different rotating forces and different ejection strokes according to the user's need. - Even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and features of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in the details, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
