Description

 BB paintball composition TECHNICAL FIELD

 The invention relates to a BB paintball composition, particularly a seamless BB paintball composition and a method for preparing the same. The paintball is a new type of BB paintball made of environmentally friendly materials and can be used for leisure. Games and military training. Background technique

The bullets currently used in game recreation and military police training are mainly divided into two categories: one is BB ball, and the other is paintball. In the prior art, a BB bullet has a diameter of about 6 bandits and a weight of about 0.12 to 0.33g. As shown in FIG. 1, it is made of non-environment-friendly plastic or plastic-coated metal balls. It has the advantages of low cost, continuous firing, high accuracy, and suitability for any plastic toy gun or metal imitation standard short gun, long gun or machine gun. When shooting with a metal imitation gun, it feels like a real shot. In contrast, because it is made of materials that are not easy to decompose, the product often pollutes the environment, and the hard metal ball material plus the shooting speed is enough to cause some lethality. In game recreation and military police training, there are often shortcomings such as safety concerns and inability to accurately mark the winning bid. In addition, in the prior art, the diameter of a general paintball is approximately 17. 5-17. 7 mm and the weight is approximately 3. 8-3. 9 g. As shown in FIG. 2, it contains an edible color solution and is made of environmentally friendly materials. After hitting the target, it will rupture. Colored solutions can be marked on the target, providing objective evaluation data during games or training. Because paintballs are too large and heavy, special guns and a number of heavy auxiliary equipment must be used to fire them. There are obvious differences from real guns and live ammunition. Casual games are still acceptable and it is difficult to achieve the goal of military and police training. The domestic and foreign commercial product 6 BB Paintball (30 Paintball, 30), as shown in FIG. 3, uses two semi-spherical molds to make an oval capsule with a seam in the middle, which is filled with a distilled aqueous solution containing pigment. Consumers think that this product has some shortcomings; for example, the capsule is too soft to shoot continuously, and it becomes softer in a short time after contacting the air. Not available at all. In addition, the joints of the oval capsule cause a matte surface, which affects the accuracy of the shot. The present invention is a seamless BB paintball. There is no seam in the appearance of the product, and it is obviously different from the commercial products with seams. The invention utilizes new technology to manufacture paintball-like environmentally friendly materials and contents, and is made as

The size of a BB bullet, a seamless BB paintball for a BB gun (24). It has the advantages of environmental protection, continuous firing, high accuracy, and the ability to mark the object that hits the target, which is enough to meet the accurate shooting feel of a real gun. The seamless BB paintball (24) of the present invention uses an edible soft capsule as the shell, and the interior is edible pigment and fatty oil. This material is food grade, non-corrosive, can be naturally decomposed, does not cause pollution, and can even be excreted by the digestive tract even if accidentally ingested. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, an object of the present invention is to provide a seamless BB paintball composition, which includes an oil solution and a distilled aqueous solution, wherein, according to the weight of the composition Calculated as a percentage, the oil solution accounts for 65-87% of the total weight of the composition. The oil solution includes edible synthetic or vegetable oil and 1% -5% food coloring; the distilled aqueous solution includes 10% -34% gelatin, 1% -10% polyethylene glycol (PEG), 1% -10% starch and 0.1%-1% food coloring, the rest is distilled water. The Seamless BB Paintball uses the characteristics of insolubility of distilled water and fatty oils, and the difference in surface tension between the two materials. The gelatin can be hot-melted and condensed, using appropriate molding curing equipment. Make it. As shown in Fig. 4, there are three parts of the forming and curing equipment. The left side is the control panel, which is mainly used to provide power and control of production conditions; the middle is the raw material storage tank; the right is the forming and curing machine. As shown in Figure 5, when two concentric nozzles, the inner nozzle ejects oil solution, and the outer nozzle ejects steam at the same time. Distilled aqueous solution, and after the outer layer liquid completely covers the inner layer liquid, and then dripped into the frozen oil, solidified to form a spherical ball capsule with a smooth surface without joints; as shown in FIG. twenty four). The invention adopts a food-grade soft capsule, which contains food coloring and fatty oil. Among the fatty oils, edible synthetic oils or vegetable oils can be selected; peanut oil, soybean oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, short-chain fatty acids, and medium-chain fatty acids. The short-chain fatty acid refers to a carbon chain of 8, and the medium-chain fatty acid refers to a saturated or unsaturated edible fatty acid with a carbon chain of 16. When adjusting the viscosity, polyethylene glycol (PEG) and starch can be added if necessary. Generally, polyethylene glycol with an average molecular weight between 200 and 6000 is used, preferably 400: 4000, and the appropriate ratio is 1.2: 1. It is preferably 1: 0.5, or 400: 4000: 6000, and the appropriate ratio is 1: 0. 3: 0. 1, preferably 0.8: 0. 2: 0. 1. Add one or two in this way (Including) more than polyethylene glycols of different molecular weights. Generally, edible starch is used, such as corn flour and potato flour. Calculated by weight percentage, the oil solution is composed of edible oil or vegetable oil and 1% -5% food coloring. The distilled aqueous solution includes 10% -34% gelatin (distilled water), which can contain 1% -10% polyethylene. Glycol (PEG), 1% -10% starch and 0.1% -1% food coloring. In addition, it is calculated according to the weight percentage. The distilled aqueous solution of the present invention preferably includes 15% -30% gelatin, 1% -5% polyethylene glycol (PEG), 6% -10% starch when necessary. And 0. 6%-1% food coloring.
