And, the propeller portion 200 is provided on both sides of the kite body portion 100.

1 and 2, the propeller part 200 is provided as one in each corner of the soft body part 100, and a total of four parts are shown. However, this is only an example for description.

Apart from this example, the number and placement of the propeller portion 200 may be configured in various ways in response to various variables such as the shape, size, maximum allowable flight altitude of the kite body portion 100.

In addition, the flight control unit 500 is provided in the kite body unit 100, controls whether the propeller unit 200 is driven according to the setting operated before the flight, and transmits power to the propeller unit 200. It performs the function.

The flight control unit 500 includes a flight instrument member 501, a propeller driving module 510, and a direction control module 520.

Specifically, the flight control unit 500 will be described with reference to FIG. 9 which is an exemplary view showing a state of use of the flight control unit and FIG. 10 which is an exemplary view showing a case where the automatic mode is selected in the state of FIG. 9. do.

First, as shown in Figures 2 and 9, the flight instrument member 501 is provided in the body portion 100 so that the user can operate the flight-related matters.

At this time, the flight instrument member 501 is shown as attached to the grinding member 120, but this is only an example and may be configured in various position structures.

In addition, as shown in Figures 9 and 10, the flight instrument member 501 may be formed as a kind of display structure, through which the user can visually recognize the flight-related information.

In addition, as shown in Figure 9, the user can select one of the manual mode or the automatic mode through the flight instrument member 501, the manual mode and the automatic mode is the propeller drive module shown in FIG. 510 is a function performed.

In more detail, when the manual mode is selected, the propeller drive module 510 causes the propeller unit 200 to be deactivated, which may be selected when there is a sufficient amount of air in a place to play. It is a feature.

On the other hand, when the automatic mode is selected, the propeller drive module 510 operates the propeller unit 200 to generate flight propulsion force by driving the propeller.

For example, when a sufficient amount of air is not formed in the place where the kite is to be played, the user can form a driving force capable of flying the kite body part 100 by selecting the automatic mode function.

And, as shown in Figure 10, when the automatic mode is selected, the user can set the operating altitude which is a specific ground altitude.

In this case, the operation altitude is a condition for stopping the operation of the propeller unit 200 when the automatic mode function is performed.

Specifically, when the soft body portion 100 reaches the ground altitude corresponding to the operating altitude, the propeller drive module 510 stops the operation of the propeller portion 200.

In this case, the flight control unit 500 may recognize whether the operating altitude is reached through various methods such as a height sensor, GPS means.

According to the configuration of the propeller drive module 510 and the propeller unit 200, the user can enjoy playing in any place regardless of the amount of air.

Thus, the accessibility to the traditional kite play, which is a traditional leisure activity, may be improved, thereby increasing the satisfaction that the user may feel.

In addition, the propeller drive module 510 is the propeller drive module 510 when the soft body portion 100 is lowered from the ground altitude corresponding to the operating altitude, so that the soft body portion 100 reaches the operating altitude again. It also performs some sort of feedback function.

That is, the above-described feedback function is a function for preparing a case where the soft structure is not lowered even after the soft structure reaches the operation altitude so that the proper air volume is not formed.

First of all, the above-described feedback function allows the propeller unit 200 to be selectively operated only to maintain the operation altitude.

Through such a selective propeller drive characteristic, the power consumed by the propeller 200 is minimized.

At this time, the propeller unit 200 and the flight control unit 500 may be combined by all the main common means capable of transmitting and receiving power.

And, such a power transmission and reception means (not shown), may be provided in various ways, such as provided along the inner longitudinal direction of the grinding member 120.

In addition, the power for driving the flight control unit 500 and delivered to the propeller unit 200 may be supplied to the flight control unit 500 through various means such as a rechargeable battery, USB connection, injection of other fuel.

In addition, the amount of power remaining in the flight control unit 500 may be exhibited through the flight instrument member 501.

In addition, the flight instrument member 501 may be configured in various ways, such as a touch screen structure, a button structure, so that the user can set the automatic mode, the manual mode, the operating altitude.

In addition, the direction control module 520 is configured to function in association with the direction control unit 400, which will be described together with the direction control unit 400.

3 and 4 are a perspective view and a front view of the direction control unit shown in Figure 1, Figure 5 is an exemplary view showing the direction change of the soft body portion by operating the string member in the state of Figure 1, Figure 6 is a soft body portion It is an exemplary figure which shows the state switched to the direction opposite to the state of five.

7 is a front view showing a front state of A shown in FIG. 5, and FIG. 8 is a front view showing a front state of B shown in FIG. 6, and with reference to FIGS. 3 to 8, the direction control module 520 and the direction control unit 400 will be described in detail.

3 to 6, the direction control unit 400 includes a rim member 420, a direction guide member 410, a first direction sensor member 421, and a second direction sensor member 422. ), And a rim fixing member 430 and the wire member 440.

First, the rim member 420 is formed in a hollow structure with one side opened, such as a kind of cup structure.

In addition, the direction guide member 410 is provided inside the rim member 420 and spaced apart from the inner circumferential surface of the rim member 420 by a predetermined distance, and one end of the string member 310 is connected.

The rim fixing member 430 connects the rim member 420 and the soft body member 110 to each other, and the wire member 440 connects the direction guide member 410 and the flight control unit 500. Let's do it.

In addition, the rim member 420 is provided with the first direction sensor member 421 corresponding to the circumference of the half, and the second direction sensor member 422 is installed at the other half.

More specifically, the first direction sensor member 421 and the second direction sensor member 422 have a symmetrical structure parallel to one side and the other side of the soft body member 110, respectively, the rim member 420 Is placed on.

In summary, the direction control unit 400 is provided in a structure connecting the kite body member 110 and the kite member 310.

At this time, as compared with reference to Figures 5 and 6, in order to change the flight direction of the kite in general, the kite is pulled in the desired direction so that the kite is inclined in the direction.

And, if you want to perform the flight path conversion of the kite in accordance with the traditional kite playing method, the direction control module 520 and the direction control unit 400 side by the propeller unit 200 toward the direction of the flight path to change Directional acceleration or thrust force is generated.

The lateral acceleration to thrust force generation function is a function that is operated when the above-described automatic mode is not set because there is not enough air volume in the place to be played, and will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. .

First, as illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 8, when the string member 310 is pulled in one direction, the direction guide member 410 is also bent in the same direction to face the rim member 420. In contact with a specific section.

At this time, the direction guide member 410 may be formed of a structure that is provided with a high ductility and a high elastic restoring force, such as the inner spring structure, so as to ensure a flexible ductility and elastic restoring force.

For example, as illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 7, when the string member 310 is pulled to one side to change the direction of the kite, the direction guide member 410 is also bent in the same direction, so that the first direction sensor The member 421 is in contact with one side of the rim member 420 is installed.

Due to the contact, a predetermined pressing force is sensed by the first direction sensor member 421, and the sensing value at this time is transmitted to the direction control module 520 through the wire member 440.

In addition, the first direction sensor member 421 and the second direction sensor member 422 are configured to sense a pressing force generated through contact with the direction guide member 410, and various contact forces such as piezoelectric elements and strain gauges. It can be made as a sensing means.

Thereafter, the direction control module 520 operates the propeller part 200 provided on the other side of the soft body unit in a direction opposite to the first direction sensor member 421.

In addition, the direction control module 520 stops the operation of the propeller unit 200 provided on one side.

In summary, when the string member 310 is pulled to one side, the direction guide member 410 connected thereto is also bent in the same direction.

At this time, the direction guide member 410 is in contact with the first direction sensor member 421 provided on the same section as the direction in which the string member 310 is pulled.

Thereafter, the first direction sensor member 421 transmits a signal on the contact force sensing value to the direction control module 520, and the direction control module 520 is in a section opposite to the first direction sensor member 421. The propeller unit 200 is operated.

In addition, the direction control module 520 stops the operation of the propeller unit 200 existing in the same section as the first direction sensor member 421, so that the propeller unit 200 is directed toward one side which is a flight direction intended by the user. Acceleration by will occur.

The above-described matters are described with reference to the case where the soft body portion 100 is turned to one side as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7.

On the contrary, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, if the kite body portion 100 is to be redirected to the other side, the contents described above with reference to FIGS. 5 and 7 may be executed in the opposite directions.

That is, through the connection between the direction control unit 400 and the direction control module 520 described above, just pulling the string member 310 in the direction to change the direction, as in the conventional play, for the corresponding direction Lateral acceleration or thrust is automatically generated.

Accordingly, even when the wind is blown or the amount of air is insufficient, the effect of changing the flight direction is more easily performed as it corresponds to the aforementioned lateral acceleration force.

In addition, since the above-described acceleration generating function is performed only by pulling the string in the direction to change the direction as in the traditional kite playing method, there is an effect that also ensures a unique direction switching control feeling unique to the traditional method.

That is, through the linkage between the propeller unit 200, the direction control unit 400, and the direction control module 520 described above, the effect of simultaneously changing the direction is easily achieved in a state in which the traditional style soft steering is intact. .

As a result, even if the air volume is insufficient or beginners of traditional kite play, you can enjoy and practice traditional kite play regardless of the season and skill.

In addition, the user may arbitrarily control the operation of the propeller unit 200 by pulling the string member 310 a plurality of times within a predetermined time even when the soft structure is in flight.

As an example for implementing this, a driving switch member (not shown) may be provided at an inner end of the directional guide member 410.

When the user extends and restores the length of the direction guide member 410 a plurality of times within a predetermined time by pulling the string member 310 a plurality of times within a predetermined time, the driving switch member (not shown) drives the propeller. The drive signal is transmitted to the module 510.

After the propeller drive module 510 transmits the drive signal, the propeller drive module 510 stops it when the propeller unit 200 is in operation or starts it when it is in an inoperative state.

At this time, the driving switch member (not shown) to detect the length elongation and restoration of the direction guide member 410 may be made through various means such as a piezoelectric element (Piezo), strain gauge.

In addition, the length extension and recovery frequency of the direction guide member 410, which is a condition for generating the driving signal, and the time limit for the generation and recovery frequency of the direction guide member 410 may be previously input to the propeller driving module 510. Or, it may be set by the user through the flight instrument member 501.

Through the addition of such a drive switch member (not shown), in all cases where the air volume increases and decreases rapidly during play, the user does not need to operate or deactivate the propeller part 200 after collecting the kite to the ground. This results in an effect of greatly improving the convenience of playing.

In particular, the control method of the connection member 310 pull-type propeller 200, the design structure of the control circuit is extremely simple compared to the remote method control, the design ease is improved, and the manufacturing cost and unit cost accordingly The effect is reduced.

In addition, through such a pulling method, the wired and wireless electronic signal transmitting and receiving means for transmitting and receiving the propeller unit 200 operation signal or the like is not necessary, and the effect of reducing the cost is further reduced.

In detail, when the propeller part 200 is to be controlled through the wired transmission / reception means, the propeller part 200 should be further driven to rotate as much as the weight of the wired means.

However, the above-described pull-out control does not require such a wired means, so that the propeller portion 200 can be designed in a low-cost structure, which is relatively inexpensive, and also prevents the overload applied to the propeller portion 200. It becomes possible.

Thus, the design cost is reduced and the occurrence of failure of the propeller unit 200 is greatly reduced.

In addition, when trying to control the propeller unit 200 through the radio wave transmission and reception means, it may not be able to fly the soft structure more than a certain altitude according to the radio wave transmission and reception possible range of the radio means.

In order to overcome this limitation, the radio means must be equipped with a relatively expensive high radio range.

However, in accordance with the above-described pull-out control, since the propeller portion 200 control range is secured as much as corresponding to the entire length of the string member 310, accordingly in terms of reducing the cost and securing the flight altitude, It is to produce a more excellent effect.

As described above, the present invention has a main technical idea to provide a smart connection system, the above-described embodiment with reference to the drawings is only one embodiment, the true scope of the present invention based on the claims However, it will also extend to the equivalent embodiments that can exist in various ways.
