Benefits of technology

[0025]The convex surface portion may comprise a film of high reflectivity against visible light, and the concave surface portion may comprise a film of low reflectivity against visible light. Thereby, the hand thrown flying toy may produce flashing effect during the flight.
[0033]The advantages of the present invention are: (1) the hand thrown flying toy is simple in structure, but shows a complicated patterns of flying; and (2) the flight of the hand thrown flying toy is controlled with throwing angle and force.

Problems solved by technology

Even though a personal flight as in Icarus or Rocketeer is still challenging for technological or economical reasons, flight can be or is being enjoyed just by flying a paper plane or a frisbee.

Embodiment Construction

[0051]FIGS. 1-14 show hand thrown flying toys according to embodiments of the present invention.

[0052]An aspect of the invention provides a hand thrown flying toy 100 as shown in FIGS. 1-6. The hand thrown flying toy 100 includes a convex surface portion 10, a concave surface portion 20, a plurality of linear edge portions 30, and a plurality of curved edge portions 40.

[0053]The convex surface portion 10 has a shape of a partial outer surface of a cylindrical shell extending along a first direction, and the cylindrical shell has a predetermined thickness. The first direction runs longitudinally.

[0054]The concave surface portion 20 has a shape of a partial inner surface of the cylindrical extending along the first direction.

[0055]Each of the plurality of linear edge portions 30 defines a first joining edge between the convex surface portion 10 and the concave surface portion 20, and extends along the first direction.

[0056]Each of the plurality of curved edge portions 40 defines a sec...

Abstract

A hand thrown flying toy is provided, which has a simple structure having a convex surface portion and a concave surface portion, which are connected by a plurality of linear edge portions. The convex and concave surface portions are configured to generate a plurality of general pattern of loci of flight through fluid dynamic effects based on throwing force thrust and throwing angle. The air flow around the toy is changed by such parameters such that the various aerodynamic forces are generated, resulting the plurality of general pattern of loci of the flight of the toy.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a hand thrown flying toy. More particularly, this invention relates to a hand thrown flying toy, which flies in various generally controllable loci.[0002]Flight has fascinated the humankind for such a long time. The legend of Icarus shows the eagerness for the flight of people.[0003]Even though a personal flight as in Icarus or Rocketeer is still challenging for technological or economical reasons, flight can be or is being enjoyed just by flying a paper plane or a frisbee.[0004]Flying things could catch an extensive attention of people from an ancient time, which is why all kinds of flying toys are still popular.[0005]Some of the flying toys or flying devices show a lot of different trajectory of flight, some of which really show gravity-defying pattern of flight, which defies intuition and common sense of gravity of people so abruptly as to inspire joy and fun to make a good toy.[0006]The invention discloses a new d...
