20090137181 | Toy plane powered by hydraulic power - A toy plane includes a body made by light material such as polylone and a pressurized container is securely engaged with a groove defined in an underside of the body. The pressurized container includes a closed front end and a nozzle which connected to a rear end of the pressurized container. Water and pressurized air are received in the pressurized container. The wings and stabilizers on the body are well secured by any known method so that they do not separated from the body when the pressurized container releases the pressure to launch the plane. | 05-28-2009 |
20100248580 | JET PROPULSION CONSTRUCTION TOY ASSEMBLY - A jet propulsion construction toy assembly includes a container mounted on a movable brick assembly. A launching unit includes a launching seat permitting extension of a nozzle of the container thereinto and having an inlet. When the nozzle extends into the launching seat, an actuator mounted movably in said launching seat is operable to engage the nozzle such that said container is filled with fluid including air and liquid and pumped out of a barrel by a pump through first and second conduits, the inlet and the nozzle. Thereafter, when the nozzle is released from the launching seat due to disengagement between the nozzle and the actuator, jet of the fluid from the container through the nozzle forms a propulsion force to drive movement of a combination of the brick assembly and the container away from the launching unit. | 09-30-2010 |

20140120797 | Glide-A-Raptor - No manufacturer of Flying Model Rocket Kits at present have a rocket that carries four gliders at once, have gliders that are dual purpose, have gliders that are released in the way Glide-A-Raptor's gliders are released, or have the flight characteristics that Glide-A-Raptor has. Glide-A-Raptor releases its gliders in a Fleur-de-lis pattern; it often reminds you of a break away flight pattern that is preformed by the Blue Angels. It is a sight to see. All 4 gliders are long delta wing gliders with a steep angle. This steep angle enables 4 gliders to be mounted onto a single rocket with a symmetry that enables the rocket to use the gliders as if they were permanent fins for the stability of the rocket during acceleration and flight. | 05-01-2014 |
20140370776 | Method and Apparatus for a Two-Stage Model Rocket - A reconfigurable model rocket that can be flown either in a single-stage or a two-stage configuration is disclosed.

The nose cone is removably coupleable to a top end of the main body tube and the first tail section is removably coupleable to a bottom end of the main body tube. The first tail section accommodates a first rocket engine to propel the model rocket by allowing gases from a combustible propellant to escape from the bottom end of the first tail section. The second tail section is removably coupleable to a bottom end of the first tail section and accommodates a second rocket engine to propel the model rocket by allowing gases from a combustible propellant to escape from the bottom end of the second tail section. | 12-18-2014 |

Parachute | 3 |
20150024653 | PARACHUTE ROCKET TOY - A parachute rocket toy in which the parachute is attached to the rocket by spars is provided. A preferred embodiment uses semi-rigid spars attached to a ring that surrounds the rocket body and may slide along the body. As a portion of the parachute deploys, it may pull on the closest spars, which in turn pull the connector ring to the top of the rocket. As the ring slides to the top of the rocket, it pushes the spars, and thus the parachute, outward. A tail may be wrapped around the parachute to hold it in place for launch and ascent. After the tail unwraps, it may facilitate deployment of the parachute. | 01-22-2015 |
20080207080 | Delivery Device - In accordance with the invention, there is provided a lightweight delivery device, in order that children of all ages can experience the joy of watching payloads such as parachutes, confetti, and the like, being delivered to significant heights and returning slowly to the earth. This is accomplished by providing a hollow and visually interesting shape, which is first hinged open and filled with a desired payload. The device is then closed, bound with a cord and thrown high into the air. A flag, attached to the free end of the cord, causes the device to rotate, as it travels towards the apex of its flight, and allows the cord to unwind. Centrifugal force eventually opens the unbound device and the contents are ejected into the air. | 08-28-2008 |

The downward spiral or autorotation of an individual piece of falling confetti of certain desirable embodiments can be described as being similar to the downward fall of a maple seed or the decent of an autorotating helicopter making an emergency, unpowered decent. | 11-06-2008 |
20100330865 | ALL PAPER PRODUCTS FLYING MODEL AIRCRAFT - A flying model aircraft kit is invented for use with radio control and electric power and is constructed entirely of paper products without any other materials necessary for structural support, with the exception of glue. The aircraft kit provides for extremely inexpensive and simple manufacturing methods, while also providing for ease of construction, lightweight, high strength, durability, scale appearance, and the ability to effectively repair after crashing. The airframe is also designed such that structural pieces can be manufactured using smaller standard paper sizes, which enable extraordinarily low cost manufacture. The airframe derives its strength using a paper skin exoskeleton impregnated with epoxy resins such that tensile strength is derived from the aircraft skin itself, in addition to internal supports made of heavy card. The wing utilizes innovative construction that produces a precise and flyable wing made entirely of paper products. | 12-30-2010 |
20110003526 | Radio controlled flying toy object device with an infra-red gun - A radio controlled flying toy device having a duck-shaped flying object, a RC controller and an IR beam gun is provided wherein the controller and gun are respectively operated by a first and second user. Both the beam gun and RC controller can charge the flying object. The flying object has a pair of flapping wings whose speed and directional characteristics are controlled by the RC controller. The IR beam gun sequentially loads and fires IR beam radiations towards the duck object. The gun is specifically adapted to hit the duck with the IR beam, whereas the RC controller is specifically adapted to prevent the duck from being hit by the IR beam. The duck object includes a controller unit/micro controller that is configured to allow the duck to fly after being shot for two successive occasions by the gun and fall after being shot for the third successive occasion. | 01-06-2011 |

20130115847 | THROWING TOY WITH IMPROVED ADJUSTABLE AND TIME FLIGHT MEASUREMENT - Apparatus and method of adjusting the angle of attack to the longitudinal axis of a plurality of aerodynamic surfaces on a high performance throwing toy which affect the performance of such toy and to also provide a means of measuring such performance by recording the time the toy is airborne during flight. | 05-09-2013 |
20130260635 | Flying Toy Figure - A remote controlled flying toy figure has a thrust-powered, weight shifting rudder head. The flying toy figure comprises a head, a body, a propulsion system, and a control system. The head is attached to the body by a flexible support member, making the head securely fixed in flexible relation to the body, thus permitting a yawing motion of the head relative to the body. The propulsion system comprises two independently operable motorized propellers, each of which is attached to opposite ends of a steering bar. The steering bar and head form an integral steering unit. Increasing the thrust from one of the propellers causes the figure to turn in the opposite direction. This increased thrust causes the steering bar to yaw, which moves the center of gravity of the head to the opposite side of the center line of the body, which causes the figure to bank towards the turn. | 10-03-2013 |
