ABSTRACT:
A parachute toy having a parachute connected to a hollow capsule adapted to receive the parachute in its undeployed condition. An air intake at the front of the capsule contains an air valve for selectively allowing airflow into the interior of the capsule to deploy the parachute. The parachute is initially in its undeployed condition and the toy is whirled about in a circular path by a string. The string is subsequently released, allowing centrifugal force to fling the toy into the air. At the apex of flight, the air valve automatically opens, allowing air to flow into the toy body and deploy the parachute. The parachute supports the capsule as the capsule falls slowly back to the ground. The toy further includes means for quickly and easily returning the parachute to its undeployed position inside the capsule.
