Abstract

An air swimming toy includes a toy body, a driving device including an air propeller supported at a bottom side of the toy body for creating an air dynamic underneath the toy body, and a remote controller remotely controlling the driving device to operate the air propeller, wherein the air propeller is activated to rotate in order to control an altitude of the toy body via the air dynamic. In particular, when a controllable air pressure underneath the toy body is lesser than a surrounding air pressure, the toy body is elevated in the air, and when the controllable air pressure is higher than the surrounding air pressure, the toy body is dropped down in the air.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An air swimming toy, comprising:

         2 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said driving device further comprises a motorized unit operatively connected to said air propeller to drive said air propeller to rotate for creating a controllable air pressure underneath said toy body, in such a manner that when said controllable air pressure is lesser than a surrounding air pressure, said toy body is changed a first direction thereof in the air, and when said controllable air pressure is higher than said surrounding air pressure, said toy body is an opposed second direction in the air. 
     
     
         3 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said driving device further comprises an operative housing coupled at said bottom side of said toy body, wherein said air propeller is housed in said operative housing such that said air propeller is activated to create said controllable air pressure within said operative housing in relation to said surrounding air pressure outside said operative housing. 
     
     
         4 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said air propeller is supported at a horizontal level underneath said toy body, such that when said air propeller is drive to horizontally rotate at a clockwise direction, said toy body is lifted upwardly, and when said air propeller is driven to horizontally rotate at a counter clockwise direction, said toy body is dropped downwardly. 
     
     
         5 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said air propeller is supported at a horizontal level underneath said toy body, such that when said air propeller is drive to horizontally rotate at a clockwise direction, said toy body is lifted upwardly, and when said air propeller is driven to horizontally rotate at a counter clockwise direction, said toy body is dropped downwardly. 
     
     
         6 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 4 , wherein said motorized unit comprises a driving shaft downwardly extended with respect to said toy body, wherein said air propeller is coupled at said driving shaft to be rotated at a horizontal level. 
     
     
         7 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said motorized unit comprises a driving shaft downwardly extended with respect to said toy body, wherein said air propeller is coupled at said driving shaft to be rotated at a horizontal level. 
     
     
         8 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said air propeller is supported at a vertical level underneath said toy body, such that when said air propeller is driven to vertically rotate at a clockwise direction, said toy body is driven to turn at a left direction, and when said air propeller is driven to vertically rotate at a counter clockwise direction, said toy body is driven to turn at a right direction. 
     
     
         9 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said air propeller is supported at a vertical level underneath said toy body, such that when said air propeller is driven to vertically rotate at a clockwise direction, said toy body is driven to turn at a left direction, and when said air propeller is driven to vertically rotate at a counter clockwise direction, said toy body is driven to turn at a right direction. 
     
     
         10 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 8 , wherein said motorized unit comprises a driving shaft sidewardly extended with respect to said toy body, wherein said air propeller is coupled at said driving shaft to be rotated at a direction with respect to a centerline of said toy body. 
     
     
         11 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 9 , wherein said motorized unit comprises a driving shaft sidewardly extended with respect to said toy body, wherein said air propeller is coupled at said driving shaft to be rotated at a direction with respect to a centerline of said toy body. 
     
     
         12 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said operative housing has a plurality of side air vents and a plurality of bottom air vents for enabling said air propeller to create a difference between said controllable air pressure and said surrounding air pressure. 
     
     
         13 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 11 , wherein said operative housing has a plurality of side air vents and a plurality of bottom air vents for enabling said air propeller to create a difference between said controllable air pressure and said surrounding air pressure. 
     
     
         14 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 12 , wherein said motorized unit is a DC motor and is controlled to generate a reversible rotating power to selectively drive said air propeller between two opposite rotating directions. 
     
     
         15 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 13 , wherein said motorized unit is a DC motor and is controlled to generate a reversible rotating power to selectively drive said air propeller between two opposite rotating directions. 
     
     
         16 . An air swimming toy, comprising:
 a toy body arranged for being floated in the air; and   a driving device which comprises first and second air propellers supported at a bottom side of said toy body for creating an air dynamic underneath said toy body; and   a remote controller remotely controlling said driving device to individually operate said first and second air propellers, wherein said air propeller is activated to rotate in order to control a direction of said toy body via said air dynamic.   
     
     
         17 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 16 , wherein said first air propeller is supported at a horizontal level underneath said toy body, such that when said first air propeller is drive to horizontally rotate at a clockwise direction, said toy body is lifted upwardly, and when said first air propeller is driven to horizontally rotate at a counter clockwise direction, said toy body is dropped downwardly. 
     
     
         18 . The air swimming toy, as recited in  claim 17 , wherein said second air propeller is supported at a vertical level underneath said toy body, such that when said second air propeller is driven to vertically rotate at a clockwise direction, said toy body is driven to turn at a left direction, and when said second air propeller is driven to vertically rotate at a counter clockwise direction, said toy body is driven to turn at a right direction.
