Abstract: A programmable device such as a toy or novelty item and a remote controller has a keyboard which can be activated by a user to set up any one of multiple different motions of the toy. Sounds and lights can be activated to coordinate with the movement. The toy can be a car or other device capable of moving in the environment. The toy is also controllable solely by remote control through a transmitter in the remote controller and a receiver in the toy.

Abstract: A helicopter has a main rotor with propeller blades which is driven by a rotor shaft and which is hinge-mounted to this rotor shaft. The angle between the surface of rotation of the main rotor and the rotor may vary. A swinging manner on an oscillatory shaft is essentially transverse to the rotor shaft of the main rotor and is directed transversally to the longitudinal axis of the vanes. The main rotor and the auxiliary rotor are connected to each other by a mechanical link. The swinging motions of the auxiliary rotor controls the angle of incidence (A) of at least one of the propeller blades of the main rotor. There are wings from the body and a stabilizer at the tail.

Abstract: A flying object with tandem rotors, in particular a helicopter, has a main rotor and a tandem rotor each with propeller blades which are driven by a rotor shaft and which is hinge-mounted to this rotor shaft. The angle between the surface of rotation of the main rotor and the rotor shaft may vary. A swinging manner on an oscillatory shaft is essentially transverse to the rotor shaft of the main rotor and is directed transversally to the longitudinal axis of the vanes. The main rotor and the tandem rotor each have an auxiliary rotor connected respectively to the main rotor and tandem rotor by a mechanical link. The swinging motions of the auxiliary rotor controls the angle of incidence (A) of at least one of the propeller blades of the main rotor and tandem rotor. There is an acute angle of displacement when viewing the propeller blades relative to the vanes in a direction perpendicular to their respective rotational planes.

Abstract: A helicopter includes a system to effect motion in a horizontal dimension thereby to direct the desired direction. The rotor blades are driven by a rotor shaft and which is hinge mounted on this rotor shaft, such that the angle between the plane of rotation of the main rotor and the rotor shaft may vary. A control for moving the angle of incidence of at least one blade of the rotor cyclically along at least part of a 360-degree rotation path around the rotor shaft. This causes a variation in a lift force of the blade along at least part of the rotations path. This causes the body to be urged in a relatively horizontal direction from a relative position of rest. The control includes an actuator for engaging with an assembly depending from the rotor, the inter-engagement of the actuator and assembly effecting a change in the angle of incidence of at least the one blade of the rotor. The system includes a rotor, preferably complemented with a stabilizer rotor.

Abstract: An improved structure and method for powering the flight of a model airplane by positioning the motors and propellers on the back side of the top wings of an airplane using a single or double-deck wing design so that the propellers and motors of the airplane are better protected from damage in the event of a crash. The fuselage of the airplane is formed of a deformable material such as a foam to aid in crash resistance.

Abstract: A bubble making toy includes a propeller to cause liquid from an outlet port to spread across the space formed in a ring downstream of the propeller. The air generated by the propeller rotates under the action of a fan upstream of the propeller, and causes the ejection of air bubbles from the toy. The bubbles are formed by liquid which is pumped from a reservoir to a dispensing port above the circumferential ring. There is a second reservoir connected to an outlet and operable by finger action to effect the ejection of fluid such as water from a second orifice from the toy. The freely rotating propeller is mounted in the air path from the housing to the outlet for the bubbles and assists in spreading liquid across the space defined by the circumferential ring onto which liquid flows from the outlet port.

Abstract: A remote controlled toy vehicle with a rechargable battery operates with rechargeable system. A station has an outlet on or in adjacency with a surface on which the remotely controllable toy is movable, and electrical outlet contacts. The remote controlled toy has inlet contacts for electrically engaging the outlet contacts when steered to the station. When the toy is steered under remote control to the station and the outlet contacts and inlet contacts electrically engage, a rechargeable current is passible from the electrical outlet contacts to the electrical inlet contacts. The station is part of a bypass track and the toy vehicle is normally directed to travel on the track and bypass the station.

Abstract: A pair of toys or novelty devices for moving relative to the surrounding environment comprises a body for each toy. The body of at least one of the toys or devices to be capable of movement over a surface. A switch with the body activates a magnet to react from one state to another state, and in the second state causing at least one of the devices or toys to move relatively closer together in the surrounding environment. A microprocessor circuit with the body is connected with the magnet such that the switch causes the magnet to operate from one state to another state. When there are a pair of toys, which appear as pets, which get together, and when they appear to kiss each other, there is emitted a kissing sound. Then the cheeks of the pets glow and become red color, resembling the human emotion and reaction.

Sounds and lights can be activated to coordinate with the movement. The toy can be a car or other device capable of moving in the environment. The keyboard can also be used to play a game of skill, for instance, shooting at a target.

Abstract: A computerized toy system has a body having the appearance of an animal. The computerized toy system permits the animal to adopt different attitudes and positions, the positions including at least three of a lying attitude, a sitting attitude, a working attitude, a standing attitude and different types of walking attitudes. There are limbs having joints to permit for movement of the toy. There are sufficient in number to permit for a relatively natural and smooth manner of movement representation of the animal. The body construct or skin appearance renders the toy realistic of an animal. The skin appearance may selectively be a fur or plush-type body.

Abstract: A toy train system has movable and removable trigger devices to be located by a user wherever selected on the toy train track. The train locomotive includes the ability to activate a sound and a light signal which can correspond to the sound. The train locomotive is capable of manipulating and changing the speed of the train over the track. The track can have an ascending and descending tracks and curves, and the tracks have ridges for engaging the locomotive, and can be set up by a user as required.
