- the fuselage 4 is made of a lightweight and strong material.
- the main skeleton 6 is composed of one member made of an elastic material, and is fixed to an upper portion of the body 4.
- the wing span direction the direction in which the wings extend substantially orthogonal to the main direction
- the symbols of the components located on the left side of the fuselage 4 are L and right. R is added to the symbol of the component located in.
- the main skeleton 6 is provided with a plurality of ribs (battens) 8 extending in the main direction. These ribs 8 are arranged at predetermined intervals in the spanwise direction. In the present embodiment, three ribs 8aL, 8bL, 8cL are also provided on the left side of the body 4 in order, and three ribs 8aR, 8bR, 8cR are provided on the right side of the body in order from the body side.
- a sail 10 is fixed to the main skeleton 6 and the rib 8.
- the sail 10 is also fixed to a vertical member 12 provided on the upper part of the fuselage 4. Therefore, the shape of sail 10 is defined by main frame 6, ribs 8, and vertical members 12. It will be done.
- An auxiliary member 14 made of an elastic material and extending in the spanwise direction is provided at the rear of the main frame 6 with a gap in the main direction.
- the auxiliary member 14 extends between the outermost ribs 8cL and 8cR. Therefore, the sail portions 10aL, 10aR outside the ribs 8cL, 8cR are substantially supported only by the main skeleton 6.
- the wings (main wings) of the human-powered fluttering machine 2 have the main skeleton 6 and the auxiliary members 14 also formed of elastic material forces, and therefore have the vertical vibration (downstroke and lifting) with the fuselage 4 as a fulcrum. ) Is possible.
- Weights 16L and 18L are provided on the left side of the fuselage 4 in the middle of the main skeleton 6 (between the position fixed to the fuselage 4 and the wing tip) and at the wing tip. Similarly, on the right side of the fuselage 4, weights 16R and 18R are provided in the middle of the main skeleton 6 and at the wing tips. The reason for attaching these weights will be described later.
- the fuselage 4 is provided with a swing line 22 for suspending the harness 20, so that the pilot can be hung on the aircraft 2 by wearing the harness.
- the swing line 22 is attached to the fuselage 4 so as to pass through the center of gravity of the human-powered fluttering machine 2. Can be controlled.
- a foot plate 26 connected to the wings via wires 24 is provided.
- the foot plate 26 is substantially rectangular, and the right front corner is the front edge of the right rib 8aR closest to the body 4, the right rear corner is the rear edge of the rib 8aR, and the left front side.
- the wing having the elastic structure performs a down stroke.
- a control bar 28 is mounted near the fuselage 4 below the wing, within a reach of the pilot while wearing the harness 20.
- the control bar 28 is fixed to the ribs 8aL and 8aR closest to the fuselage 4 and at the front edge and the rear edge, so that the operator can hold the control bar 28.
- the wing will be downed.
- the downstroke is mainly performed by stepping on the foot plate 16 downward, and the downstroke by pulling the control bar 28 downward is auxiliary.
- control bar 28 is also used to adjust the attitude of the aircraft 2 by changing the position that the operator grips.
- a weight 30 is provided at the tip (nose) of the fuselage 4 to balance the weight of the fuselage 2.
- a tail fin 32 is provided to stabilize the fuselage 2 during flight.
- the main skeleton 6 and the auxiliary members 14 With 4 as a fulcrum, the wings are deflected downward and the wings are downed.
- the weight components of the fuselage 2 are mainly the fuselage 4, the main wing skeleton 6, the weights 16L, 16R, 18L, 18R, 30 and the tail 32, etc. 2 can be designed. As a result, a lift greater than the weight of the fuselage 2 and the pilot is obtained.
- the main skeleton 6 and the auxiliary member 14 begin to move upward with the body 4 as a fulcrum due to the repulsive force, and the wings are pulled up.
- the pilot must bend his legs.
- the operator lowers the control bar 28 downward while stepping on the foot plate 26 downward, whereby the wing is downed again.
- the human-powered fluttering aircraft 2 flies while flapping its wings.
- the sail portions 10aL and 10aR located on the end side of the wing are substantially supported only by the main skeleton 6, so that the wing can flutter like a bird.
- the human-powered fluttering machine 2 When flapping is not performed, the human-powered fluttering machine 2 functions as a hanger rider and performs gliding flight.
- Providing the weights 16L and 16R in the middle of the main skeleton 6 can increase the repulsive force of the main skeleton 6 generated at the time of the down stroke, and therefore, compared to the case where there is no weight, the hitting of the wing by a human. Even if the lowering force is weak, the wing can be raised.
- the weight may be placed at any position in the middle of the main skeleton 6, but the force placed on or inside the ribs 8cL and 8cR where the auxiliary material 14 exists in the wing width direction is the repulsion of the auxiliary material 14. In that they can increase their power preferable.
- Providing weights 18L and 18R at the end of the main skeleton 6 allows the wing end to be turned upside down when the wing is downed (when the wing is downed, the wing tip side is delayed compared to other parts.
- the wings are curled at the wing tip side), and the radius of the wing can be increased when lifting, thereby increasing the efficiency of flapping (when flapping).
- the air resistance can be increased when down and down, and reduced when raised).
- the main skeleton is constituted by one member, but may be constituted by a plurality of members.
- the main skeleton is constituted by a central portion provided so as to straddle the trunk and fixed to the trunk, and side portions provided on both sides of the central portion.
- the side parts may be movable relative to the central part, whereby the wings may be variable or foldable.
