  • Patent number: 10569184
    Abstract: A self-propelled toy glider includes a flexible frame and a flight surface. The flexible frame may be deformed and held within the user's hand. When deformed, the flexible frame stores spring energy. This spring energy is subsequently used to propel the self-propelled toy glider forward as it returns to original shape.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180085678
    Abstract: A self-propelled toy glider includes a flexible frame and a flight surface. The flexible frame may deformed and held within the user's hand. When deformed, the flexible frame stores spring energy. This spring energy is subsequently used to propel the self-propelled toy glider forward as it returns to original shape. Related to glider durability and overall safety, the flexible frame can elastically deform when the toy glider impacts objects during flight.
