Abstract

Buoyant tube kite with one-hand control (1), consisting of a front tube (2) and trailing edge (3), at least one area made of simple canvas (4), attached to bridle lines (5) which are not described in more detail, which are attached to a one-hand bar (7 ) in the front area (8), as well as the control lines (6), which are attached to the one-hand bar (7) in the rear area (9), which makes it possible during the flight without any further connection to the user (14) to change the angle of attack by upward movement (12) or lowering movement (13) and to carry out the steering movement of the tube kite with one-hand control (1) by a left direction of rotation (10) or right direction of rotation (11) of the one-hand bar (7).

Description

The invention relates to a buoyant tube kite with one-handed control.

For wing foiling on the water, inflatable wings without a bridle system are preferably used, which are primarily controlled by the user with two hands and the angle of attack is changed, with the user ideally being above the water surface on a buoyant board.

The solution to this problem, as described in the protection claims, is based on the idea of developing a buoyant tube kite with a bridle system, which enables the pulling power to be regulated and controlled using one-handed control and flies at a relatively short distance above the water surface and the user can also do so in the Floating state, without board, can operate an inflatable towing kite using one-handed control.

Detailed explanation of the drawings

1 shows a perspective view of the tube kite 1 according to the invention with one-hand bar 7, a front tube 2 and trailing edge 3, as well as installed simple canvas 4, with front bridle lines 5 running from the tube kite 1 according to the invention in the direction of the front area of the one-hand bar 8 , furthermore control lines 6 are attached to the rear area of the one-hand bar 9 in order to move the tube kite 1 in a left direction of rotation 10, right direction of rotation 11 or the angle of attack of the tube kite 1 through different arm and hand movements of the user 14 via an upward movement 12 or lowering movement 13 of the rear area of the one-hand bar 7.

2 shows a perspective view of the tube kite 1 according to the invention, according to the description 1 , whereby to stabilize the simple canvas 4, a canvas stiffener 15 is also installed between the front tube 2 and the trailing edge 3.

3 shows a side sectional view of the tube kite 1 according to the invention with one-hand bar 7, its front tube 2, the trailing edge 3 and the simple canvas 4 in between at a high angle of attack, with the lowering movement 13 pulling the rear area of the one-hand bar 9 downwards and the front area of the one-hand bar 8 forms a pivot point so that the front bridle lines 5 do not change their position.

4 shows a side sectional view of the tube kite 1 according to the invention with one-hand bar 7, its front tube 2, the trailing edge 3 and the simple canvas 4 in between at a flat angle of attack, with the upward movement 12 moving the rear area of the one-hand bar 9 upwards and the front area of the one-hand bar 8 forms a pivot point so that the front bridle lines 5 do not change their position.
