  • In some embodiments, the head has a greater diameter than the shaft.
  • Furthermore, the wrist web shooter as provided comprises a wrist wearable body, and a rubber band as described. The wrist wearable body comprises a trigger and a lock hole; wherein one end, opposite to the rivet end, of the rubber band is attached to the trigger and is capable of being released by the trigger; the rivet end is positioned in the lock hole and can off the lock hole when the opposite end is released by the trigger.
  • In some embodiments, the trigger is located on an outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the front of the wrist wearable body; the lock hole is located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the rear of the wrist wearable body.
  • In some embodiments, the trigger is located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the front of the wrist wearable body; at least three lock holes are located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the rear of the wrist wearable body.
  • In some embodiments, the trigger is located on an outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the rear of the wrist wearable body; the lock hole is located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the front of the wrist wearable body.
  • In some embodiments, the trigger is located on an outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the rear of the wrist wearable body; three lock holes are located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the front of the wrist wearable body.
  • In some embodiments, the lock hole is consisting of a locking portion and a free portion; the locking portion is adapted for secure the head of the rivet end; the free portion allows the enter and exit of the rivet end.
  • By using the rubber band having a rivet end for attached to the wrist web shooter, the rubber band may be secure firmly to the wrist web shooter. Furthermore, the rubber band as described can lock on the wrist web shooter as described. Normal rubber band cannot lock on the shooter as described. Because the shooter only allows the rubber band having a rivet end with a bigger head to lock in hole, and a normal rubber band cannot lock in the hole. The present rubber band is specifically designed to fitted into the lock hole which located at front or rear end of the outer surface of the wrist web shooter. The existing rubber band available on the market is a mere circle and does not have the bigger head as described, and therefore it cannot be locked in the hole. Namely, the present wrist web shooter is specifically adapted for the rubber band as described, and vice versa.

    •  DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE
  • The heart of this invention lies in the optimal combination of known mechanical principles in order to produce a new toy shooting apparatus. It is well known that shooting toys enjoy wide commercial acceptance. Similarly, items that stimulate children's playful imagination are in great demand, especially when they lead the player to identify with popular cartoon characters or heroes. Accordingly, this invention creates a toy that makes it possible for a player to act like a spider man by shooting web-like rubber bands from the wrist of his or her hand.
  • With reference to the drawings, FIGS. 1 and 2 show a rubber band having a rivet end according to one embodiment of the present invention. The rubber band 1 adapted for a wrist web shooter 2 comprises a rubber band body 11, and a rivet end 12 for attaching to the wrist web shooter 2. The rivet end 12 consists of a shaft 121 with a head 122 on one end. The shaft 122 of the rivet end 12, opposite to the head 122, is extended from the rubber band body 11. In this embodiment, the rubber band may be shaped like a web. It is conceivable that the rubber band is made of rubber and is resilient.
  • Still referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 , the head 122 may comprise an oval surface 1221 depart from the shaft 121, and a flat surface 1222 attached to one end of the shaft 121. It is conceivable that the head 122 has a greater diameter than the shaft 121.
  • Referring to FIGS. 3-6 , the wrist web shooter 2 as provided comprises a wrist wearable body 21, and a rubber band 1 as described. The wrist wearable body 21 comprises a trigger 211 and a lock hole 212. As shown in the Figures, one end, opposite to the rivet end 12 of the rubber band 1 is attached to the trigger 211 and is capable of being released by the trigger 211. The rivet end 12 is positioned in the lock hole 212 and can off the lock hole 212 when the opposite end is released by the trigger 211.
  • In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 3 and 4 , the trigger 211 is located on an outer surface of the wrist wearable body 21 and at the front of the wrist wearable body 21. The lock hole 212 is located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body 21 and at the rear of the wrist wearable body 21. Additionally, in some embodiments, there may be at least three lock holes being located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body and at the rear of the wrist wearable body. In such arrangement, in shoot, rubber bands can be shoot out in sequence one by one.
  • In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6 , the trigger 211 is located on an outer surface of the wrist wearable body 21 and at the rear of the wrist wearable body 21. The lock hole 212 is located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body 21 and at the front of the wrist wearable body 21. Additionally, in some embodiments, there may be at least three lock holes 212 being located on the outer surface of the wrist wearable body 21 and at the rear of the wrist wearable body 21. In such arrangement, in shoot, rubber bands can be shoot out in sequence one by one.
  • Further referring to FIG. 4 or FIG. 6 , and especially FIG. 7 , the lock hole 212 is consisted of a locking portion 2121 and a free portion 2122. The locking portion 2121 is adapted for secure the head 122 of the rivet end 12. The free portion 2122 allows the enter and exit of the rivet end 12.
  • When in use, two ends of the rubber band are positioned on the shooter, with one end attached to the trigger, and the other end to the lock hole. The trigger may be manipulated by users, and can be controlled to release one end of the rubber band. With the rubber band being released, the rubber band will shoot out, and the rivet end of the rubber band will not block the rubber band from shooting out.
  • Naturally, without altering the principle of the invention, the construction details and the embodiments may be widely varied from what is described and illustrated purely by way of example herein, without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention as disclosed in the appended claims.
