Abstract
Flying device, in which there is a fuselage (2, 2′), wings (8, 9), which are connected to each other to form an essentially looped structure, elements (4, 5) for creating a flying force, and the desired elements (e.g., 7, 7′) for controlling the flying device (1). The wings (8, 9) of the flying device (1) form a unified totality detachable from the fuselage (2, 2′). A wing construction is also included.
Claims19
A flying device, comprising:
- a fuselage having a longitudinal direction with a first side extending in the longitudinal direction, and an opposite, second side extending in the longitudinal direction, the fuselage comprising a cockpit that carries a load of one person that is a pilot of the flying device;
- wings detachably attached to the fuselage, the wings comprising a first side that extends from the first side of the fuselage, a second side that extends from the second side of the fuselage, and connecting portion that lies against and is detachably connected to a lower part of the fuselage, the connecting portion connecting an end part of the first side of the wings to an end part of the second side of the wings,
- wherein i) the first side of the wings comprises an upper wing part detachably attached to an upper part of the fuselage and a lower wing part attached to the connecting portion, and ii) the second side of the wings comprises an upper wing part detachably attached to an upper part of the second side of the fuselage and a lower wing part attached to the connecting portion, each of the first and second wing parts being spaced apart from each other, each of the first and second wing parts being connected by a respective wing tip part,
- wherein i) the first and second wing parts together with the respective wing tip part of the first side of the wings, ii) the first and second wing parts together with the respective wing tip part of the second side of the wings, and iii) the connecting portion together define a closed looped structure detachably attached to the respective upper and lower parts of the fuselage;
- and
- control devices that allow the pilot to control the flying device.
