Wing-operated flying toy, and a process for automatically locking the wings, at the end of a flight

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.
