Definitions

  • crossbars (1) On at least two crossbars (1) of about 80 to 100 centimeters long and with a cross section rectangular or square, they are drilled several holes (2) to place fixing screws (3) for at least two longitudinal floats (7) and fixing screws (4) for two longitudinal bars or plates (5) that there are for each seat of the pedal boat to assemble. These longitudinal bars or plates (5) will support the seat and other elements for passenger's accommodation.
  • the crossbars (1) join at least two longitudinal floats (7) passing through some holes, slots or grooves (8) of the same section that cross completely the longitudinal floats (7) transversely in relation to the direction of advance of the pedal boat, while the longitudinal bars or plates (5) , parallel to the longitudinal floats (7) , are fixed both to the crossbars (1) and to the longitudinal floats (7) by fixing screws (9) , giving rigidity to this flotation structure and prevent its lateral deformation or folding in assembly or In navigation.
  • the longitudinal bars or plates (5) end In two short transverse sections or segments that contains the holes (2) for the fixing screws (3) to the longitudinal floats (7) , giving to these longitudinal bars (5) a slightly shape of a letter U.
  • These transverse sections can be inserted into grooves, slots or holes placed at the upper surface of the longitudinal floats (7) and crossing them transversely, so that once the longitudinal bars or plates (5) are placed and secured, the upper surface of the longitudinal floats (7) is all at the same level, without hollows.
  • transverse sections of the longitudinal bars or plates (5) are exactly long to fit exactly until the central vertical plane of symmetry of the longitudinal floats (7) , so in case of the construction of a pedal boat of two or more seats the transverse sections can join together and share the longitudinal float (7) with the symmetric longitudinal bar or plate (5) of the adjacent seat.
  • the longitudinal floats (7) have a upper flat surface to facilitate the assembling, sliding and screwing of further pieces. They are going wider transversally toward its inferior part, finishing in a bottom surface relatively flat, that remembers a surfboard, that permits the pedal boat to slide above the water, minimizing the submerged surface of the longitudinal floats (7) and doing more easy its displacement by human power.
  • the longitudinal floats (7) have a prow that gets narrow in relation to the main body of the float to cut better the water, to leave better enough space between them to place propulsion devices and a little front float (10) , and also to compensate the additional flotation due to the cited front float (10) .
  • the longitudinal floats (7) have also a keel (49) disposed on its central vertical plane of symmetry to direct the water flow toward the rudders (38) , increasing the maneuverability of the pedal boat.
  • each crankshaft (11) of the pedal boat threads simmetrically by their both sides two identical paddlewheels (12) until a limit (13) , placed in each lateral rod (14) of the crankshaft (11) , in order to separate them from the pedals a certain distance.
  • these lateral rods (14) are coincident with its rotation axis and can be modified to facilitate a quick assembly and linked rotation of both paddlewheels (12) and crankshaft (11) .
  • the external parts of these rods (14) are mechanized and finished in a cross section square or polygonal (15).
  • the central hole (16) of the paddlewheels (12) have exactly the same shape and section, what allows that both parts can rotate as a whole wihtout joining them with pins. If it is desirable a better resistance of the paddlewheels (12) against torsion, several pins (20) can be placed into holes (19) that cross both the axis of the paddlewheels (12) and the crankshafts (11) by their lateral rods (14) to secure them firmly.
  • crankshafts (11) between the ends of their two mechanized rods (16) is the same or a little less than the separation distance between the central vertical planes of symmetry of two adjacent longitudinal floats (7) , so two adjacent crankshafts (11) can be placed side by side serially.
  • two identical rolling pieces of cylindrical symmetry (23) (usually cylindrical in shape) for each crankshaft (11 ) are added. They consist in a tube with an inner hole along its symmetry axis of the same cross section that the mechanized rod segments (15), so these tubes can be threaded laterally in the crankshafts (11 ) and used as lateral bearings or rolling surfaces.
  • Each rolling piece of cylindrical symmetry (23) rolls fitting perfectly into a locking piece (24) , usually with a box shape, that has a cylindrical hole along its bigger axis of the same inner diameter that the rolling piece (23) .
  • These rolling and locking pieces (23) and (24) can be manufactured in a plastic material of low friction and high resistance to the same, because they have two rolling surfaces in contact.
  • Each terminal locking piece (24) fits in an upper slot or groove (25) that cross from side to side transversely each longitudinal float (7) near its prow, so that both ends of each stacked propulsion device (composed by a crankshaft (11) , two paddlewheels (12) , and the two lateral rolling (23) and locking (24) pieces) can be secured transversely in relation to the direction of advance of the boat dropping it from above, with no possibility of lateral displacements.
  • the rolling (23) and locking (24) pieces have the same length or near than the thickness of the prow of the longitudinal float (7), but the segments of the mechanized rods (16) of the crankshafts (11) that go into the longitudinal floats (7) only have the half.
  • This fact allows to connect side by side serially two or more crankshafts (11) with their respective paddlewheels (12), sharing each two adjacent crankshafts (11) a rolling piece (23) and a locking piece (24), to obtain a pedal boat of two or more seats.
  • the rolling piece (23) can be displaced transversely and be finally lost, It has a little enlargement that limits this movement.
  • both rolling pieces (23) are mounted with their enlargements inside the boat, and In a pedal boat of more seats, they are mounted with both enlargements alternativelly inside and outside in relation to each seat.
  • This front float (10) has a little depth that allows it to slide above the water and do the displacement of the boat with human power easier. It can be mounted by horizontal sliding from the front of the pedal boat, passing exactly under the plane of the crankshafts (11 ) and pedals, without any touch or collision with the pedals or other parts.
  • This front float (10) has on his rear a hollow or cavity that allows on its inner space the complete roll of the pedals, crankshafts and the passenger's feet.
  • Another realization of this front float (11) is opened to water by its rear or their sides. Instead of the cavity, it has optionally one or two symmetrical horizontal surfaces or boards that slide above the water and allows the passenger to rest his o her feet.
  • the front float (10) is anchored to the flotation structure with a front horizontal curved bar (32) and two rear Z-shaped bended bars (33).
  • the front horizontal curved bar (32) is firmly joined to the front float (10) by its middle part, and their two parallel arms are bended or curved an amount of 180°, giving it a C-shaped or an U-shaped aspect. Both arms can be introduced at time by horizontal displacement of the front float (10) into two horizontal and longitudinal holes of the same section practiced or drilled on the sliding covers (26) and / or in the longitudinal floats (7). They can be fixed to both pieces with fixing screws (35).
  • the sliding covers (26) have a pair of horizontal holes, symmetric in relation of its vertical plane of symmetry.
  • the front float (10) of a seat introduces each arm into the inner hole of the sliding covers at both sides (in relation of the considered seat), and the outer one remains free for coupling other adjacent front float (10) .
  • the front float (10) Once placed the front float (10) on its position and anchored with the front horizontal curved bar (32) to the longitudinal floaters (7), it must be secured with two rear Z-shaped bended bars (33) whose profile is rounded.
  • both Z. shaped bended bars (33) can pivot inside it to introduce from the bottom its other free arm into at least a locking device placed at the rear of the front float (10).
  • the C-shaped (32) and the Z-shaped (33) bended bars anchor the front float (10) firmly and avoids that it can be released or loosen if the passenger puts his o her feet over it.
  • Each longitudinal float (7) have on Its stern a vertical tube (41) that supports a rudder (38) by means several washers (40) and pins (42).
  • Each rudder (38) has an optional upper piece with the shape of an horizontal double pulley (43) that can be locked or anchored with.
  • the piece with double pulley (43) that have all rudders (38) is manufactured in one piece and has several hooks or rings (47) simetrically disposed around it to tie several ropes or strings, several upper stoppers symmetrically disposed that restrict the rotation angle of the rudders to less than 180° (38).
  • all rudders (38) and these pieces with two parallel pulleys (43) are disposed at the same level in the pedal boat, so all of them can be tied or hooked with an horizontal common string (43) that passes guided trough all the upper or lower pulleys to make possible that all rudders (38) have the same angle at any moment for control the boat efficiently.
  • the pedal boat has a single little column (51 ) screwed with several screws (52) in a chosen longitudinal float (7) to support a lever or steering wheel (56) for control of the boat.
  • There are two strings (45) each one placed to drag the rudders (38) in one direction, They pass through a narrow slot or groove (50) practiced longitudinally in the middle of the upper surface of the longitudinal floats (7) that protects them, and climb inside the column (51 ) towards the steering wheel (56).
  • Their ends at both sides are connected by hooks, knots or rings to the piece with a double pulley (43) and to the rod (65) of the steering wheel (56) with an adaptation piece (54).
  • the vertical column (61) has two upper aligned tubes, placed longitudinally in relation to the boat.
  • the steering wheel (56) has a central rod mechanized (55) with the same cross section that the inner hole of both pieces (53), so it can be plugged passing through them. By this way, the steering wheel (56) can rotate freely into the two bearings (53) and displace longitudinally along its central rod (55) to be adjusted for the passenger, with pin placed at the end of the rod (55) that avoids It to be released and lost.
  • the spool (54) make the same, rolling up a string and unrolling the other, dragging by this way the rudder (38) of the same longitudinal float (7) to one side, as the other rudders (38) connected to the first one.
