Paintball loader

1. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space, wherein said abutment body is yieldingly arranged in said first direction.

2. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space, wherein said abutment body comprises at least one abutment fin and is arranged to be rotatable coaxially with said rotor body.

3. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space, wherein said abutment body is arranged to be driven in a direction opposite said first direction.

4. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space; and

a spring member arranged to spring load said abutment body and to rotate it in a direction opposite the rotation of said rotor body.

5. The paintball loader according to claim 4 , wherein said spring member comprises a leaf spring.

6. The paintball loader according to claim 4 , further comprising stopping means arranged to stop the drive motor when said spring member has accumulated a certain amount of energy.

7. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space, wherein said central outlet is located essentially along the rotational axis of the rotor body, and wherein, when a paintball is prevented to move from said space, said rotor body, by the force of said drive motor, is arranged to bring said abutment body to rotate in the same direction as the rotor body.

8. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space, wherein said abutment body comprises at least one input opening adjacently before an abutment fin in the sense of the rotational direction of the rotor body, connecting said outlet with said space.

9. A paintball loader for feeding a plurality of paintballs into a paintball marker, said paintball loader comprising:

a rotor body having at least one rotor fin, a drive motor for rotating said rotor body in a first direction, and an abutment body arranged to interact with said at least one rotor fin, so that, when the rotor body is rotated, a paintball located in a space formed between said at least one rotor fin and said abutment body is pushed out of said paintball loader through a central outlet located radially inwards of said space, wherein said rotor body comprises at least one input opening adjacently after a rotor fin in the sense of the rotational direction of the rotor body, connecting said outlet with said space.
