Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a three-wheeled vehicle (also referred to as a para, motorcycle, or plane) that can fly.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, it has been known to use a square-type parachute, rotate a mini-propeller with a small engine, and fix this to the body with a suitable holding means to glide in the sky.

On the other hand, as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 53-100599, there is a known helicopter vehicle which is equipped with extensible rotary blades attached to the upper part of the vehicle and is capable of flying and traveling on the ground.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, the above-mentioned square-type parachutes that use mini-propellers are designed for flight, so it is impossible for them to run on the ground.

Therefore, the helicopter vehicle described in JP-A No. 53-100599 is theoretically capable of flying and traveling on the ground without this drawback, but it is difficult for the helicopter vehicle to glide using its wings. Moreover, the structure is not disclosed in detail, so there are three parts that are driven by the engine: the upper propeller, the front propeller, and the wheels, and there is some correlation between the upper propeller and the front propeller. It is necessary to drive the vehicle, and if one were to use a single engine to perform these functions, the problem would be that the power transmission system would become extremely complex.

It is also possible to separate the wheels and the upper and lower engines, but this poses a problem in that the engine, power transmission system, rotation control mechanism, and vehicle body require considerable weight.

In addition, it is natural to fly with rigid blades of the size required for the above-mentioned car from the perspective of a normal airplane, but when used in a car, there is a problem that it is difficult to dispose of the blades. It was hot.

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and the purpose is to provide a three-wheeled vehicle that is simple in structure and capable of flying in the air in which blades, propellers, etc. can be easily stored when used as a vehicle. shall be.

[Means for solving problems]

A tricycle capable of flying according to the present invention in accordance with the above purpose is provided with an engine having an output shaft in front of the tricycle main body in which a passenger seat is provided, and which can be freely attached and detached from the output shaft of the engine. A propeller is provided at the rear, and a square-type parachute with a glide ratio sufficient to carry the entire weight of the three-wheeled vehicle is provided at the upper part of the diagonal rear, and a hangar for the parachute is provided at the rear of the passenger. The tricycle is equipped with an engine that rotates the rear wheels of the tricycle.

[Effect]

An engine with an output shaft placed forward is installed at the front of the tricycle body, and a propeller is detachably attached to the engine.By rotating this propeller, thrust is generated. It is a square type that can fly as a parachute.

When not flying, the propeller is removed and loaded onto the tricycle body, and the parachute is folded and stored in the parachute hangar at the rear, eliminating unnecessary items and allowing the tricycle to run as a car.

When traveling as a car, the engine for rotating the rear wheels is used to rotate the rear wheels, so there is no power transmission mechanism from the engine for rotating the propeller, resulting in an extremely simple configuration.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments embodying the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings to provide an understanding of the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a three-wheeled vehicle 10 capable of flying according to an embodiment of the present invention is
a tricycle body 12 provided with a boarding seat 11;
An engine 13 attached to the front of the tricycle body 12, a propeller 14 attached to the output shaft of the engine 13, a square type parachute 15 provided diagonally at the rear upper part, and a parachute 15 attached to the rear of the rider. Engine 17 for 16 rotations of the rear wheel
It is composed of: These will be explained in detail below.

A boarding seat 11 is provided in the center of the tricycle body 12, freely rotating front wheels 18 and 19 are provided at the bottom to prevent the tricycle from collapsing laterally, and a 50 c.c.
A rear wheel 16 is provided which is driven by an engine 17. At the rear of the tricycle body 12, there is a square type parachute 15 whose blades are positioned diagonally upward during gliding, and a large number of cables 20.
is located through. In the rear body of the passenger, there is a hangar 2 for storing the parachute 15.
1 is provided so that it can be stored when not in use.

Furthermore, an engine 13 of 250 c.c. (22 horsepower) is installed at the front of the tricycle main body 12 so that its output shaft faces forward, and a propeller 14 is detachably attached to the output shaft. installed on.

Here, the total weight and required thrust ratio are as follows.

(1) Parachute total weight = 15Kg (2) Tricycle body with 50c.c. engine = 50Kg (3) Gravity of the propeller and the part that rotates the propeller = 35Kg (4) Riding weight = 80Kg Subtotal 180Kg Required thrust = total weight (180Kg)/glide ratio 4.5 = 40Kg.

Therefore, when flying in the sky using the three-wheeled vehicle 10 that can fly, if the engine 13 is rotated with the parachute 15 expanded in advance, the wind will initially blow toward the rear and cause the parachute 15 to
expands, and when the engine 13 is rotated even more strongly, thrust is applied and the aircraft flies.

Next, when using it as a car, the parachute 15 is collapsed and folded, stored in the hangar 21, the propeller 14 is also removed, and the rear wheels 16 are driven by the engine 17 in the state shown in FIG. drive.

[Effect of idea]

As is clear from the above explanation, the three-wheeled vehicle that can fly according to the present invention flies by rotating a square-type parachute and a propeller attached to the front. I can do it.

When used in a car, the blades are made of square-type parachutes, so unlike blades made of ordinary rigid bodies (metal, plastic, wood), they are not bulky and easy to use. It can be folded into a small size and stored in the tricycle body, and since the propeller is also detachable, it can be removed and loaded on the tricycle body, resulting in a state where there are no protruding objects on the outside like a normal car.

In addition, since the engine that drives the propeller and the engine for driving are separate, there is no need for a complicated power transmission mechanism and the weight can be reduced.Furthermore, since it travels like a tricycle, the main body can be tipped over to the side. Moreover, it can be constructed to be lighter than a four-wheeled vehicle, making it possible to fly stably even when using a square-type parachute.

Furthermore, since the engines for driving and flying are separate, only one of them needs to be driven, and even if one breaks down, the other can still transport the three-wheeled vehicle that can fly.
