    摘要: The present invention provides a wing-flapping flying apparatus, which can fly by moving its wings similar to a bird hovering or flying in the air by flapping its wings. The wing-flapping flying apparatus comprises: a body; a rotating shaft rotatably joined to the body; driving means for rotating the rotating shaft; and wings reciprocated between two points and connected to the rotating shaft so as to be rotated together with the rotating shaft and to be relatively torsionally rotated with respect to the rotating shaft. The wing-flapping flying apparatus generates lift throughout an entire wing-flapping movement without generating lift only throughout the half of a wing-flapping movement or offsetting the generated lift by the other half of the wing-flapping movement. Therefore, the wing-flapping flying apparatus can provide not only a stable flight but also a softly hovering or ascending and descending flight.

    摘要: The claimed invention is an ornithopter with three improvements over previous designs. First, it has a more efficient wing. Instead of using a heavy bracing rod to regulate the flexibility of the wing, it uses a lightweight cable tension system. Second, it has a steering mechanism that separates the servos from the tail itself, reducing the likelihood of damage in the event of a crash. Third, the ornithopter has a modular design, which allows more control over the external appearance of the model. Various bodies can be used with the same drive mechanism, and it permits the individual hobbyist or the kit manufacturer to produce additional body designs without having to take on the complex task of designing a new flapping mechanism.

    摘要: An new ornithopter is provided with an elongated body, wings extending laterally from the forward end of the elongated body, and a tail extending laterally from the rear end of the elongated body. In one embodiment, an elongated rotatable member is rotatably coupled at one end to the forward end of the body, and a mass is connected to the other end of the elongated rotatable member. The elongated rotatable member and the mass are rotated to drive the ornithopter. In another embodiment, a mass is coupled to the forward end of the elongated body, and the mass is moved laterally from one side of the elongated body to the other side of the elongated body to drive the ornithopter. The mass may be imparted with rotational and/or translational movement.

    摘要: A flying wing rotation mechanism of a micro air vehicle is driven under a control of a power module and a detent member. The flying wing rotation mechanism of a micro air vehicle includes a flapping arm and a flying wing. The flapping arm is connected to the detent member, and swings as the power module drives the detent member. An end of the flying wing is pivoted to the flapping arm. When the flapping arm swings, the flying wing swings with the flapping arm in sync. When swing direction of the flapping arm changes, the flying wing rotates relative to an axial direction of the flapping arm.

    摘要: An efficient flying device having flapping wings, an ornithopter, which uses many of the principles seen in bird flight, is presented herein. The wings are highly flexible, translationally stable and oscillate as a natural pendulum. Described as a springboard, the wings have a singular natural frequency, and a pumping means drives the wings at that frequency. Feedback means are described by which to accomplish this, whereby deflection of the wing affects an escapement mechanism which controls the timing and direction of the pumping means. Wing design is described whereby camber, flexure, torsion and directionality of wing components affect efficient propulsion, lift and differential reactivity with air during downstrokes and upstrokes. A crook element in the wing spar at a location proximal to the body of the device redirects vertical oscillation to horizontal. Other features are addressed, such as rearward vortex production and reaction, a double aerofoil wing construction, lateral and vertical wing curvature, rearward wing and featherlike element flexure to produce thrust, and connection of separate elastic elements to reduce power requirements.

    摘要: The invention described here offers a more effective method of ornithopter flight control. To accomplish this, the ornithopter has dual microprocessor-controlled drive systems for flapping the wings independently of each other. Various wing movements can cause the ornithopter to turn, roll, or pitch up or down. Weight and complexity are reduced by eliminating the need for servo-controlled tail surfaces.

    摘要: Process and apparatus providing the automatic locking of the wings of a wing-operated flying toy, wherein a locking device associated with the operating mechanism is applied, under the effect of elastic pressure, against a notch or slot of the circular disk of the draw crank of the operating mechanism, so that when an elastic band attains its normal power under the effect of torsional moment, the locking device is unable to engage or hold its position in the notch or slot; whereas when the power has almost attained its lowest value at the moment when the elastic band is almost completely untwisted, the locking device is able to engage and maintain itself in the slit causing the wing operating mechanism to lock and prevent movement of the wings.
