C'est donc grâce à leur physique et à leur agilité que les passagers de ce dispositif innovant parviennent à maîtriser la poussée du dispositif et à réaliser des déplacements, des acrobaties avec une très grande liberté et un côté ludique inégalés.The invention makes it possible to meet all the disadvantages raised by the known solutions. The invention consists mainly in providing a device whose design breaks with the prior art. Such a device comprises mainly a substantially flat platform on which takes place one or more passengers. Takeoff and displacements are generated by a thrust force delivered by a set of at least three nozzles, two of which are free and intended to be held by one of the passengers, said nozzles being all arranged to be positioned below the center of gravity of the set "device-passenger (s)". It is therefore thanks to their physicality and their agility that the passengers of this innovative device manage to control the thrust of the device and to perform displacements, acrobatics with a great freedom and an unparalleled playful side.
Pour offrir à un grand nombre d'usagers de telles sensations, l'invention prévoit la possibilité d'utiliser des véhicules nautiques à moteur (VNM) connus en guise de station de compression distante.

A cette fin, il est prévu tout d'abord un dispositif de propulsion comportant un corps agencé pour accueillir un passager et coopérant avec un groupe de poussée alimenté en un fluide sous pression. Pour solliciter le physique et l'agilité dudit passager, le corps comporte une plateforme sensiblement plane présentant une face inférieure et une face supérieure sur laquelle peut prendre place un passager. L'invention prévoit en outre que le groupe de poussée consiste en :

Selon ce mode de réalisation, pour éviter de contraindre ledit conduit selon les déplacements du dispositif, les moyens pour collecter et distribuer peuvent présenter une base à laquelle est connecté ledit conduit d'alimentation permettant une rotation libre dudit conduit d'alimentation autour d'une axe sensiblement parallèle à celui du conduit.According to this embodiment, in order to avoid constraining said duct according to the displacements of the device, the means for collecting and distributing may have a base to which said supply duct is connected, allowing free rotation of said supply duct around a duct. axis substantially parallel to that of the conduit.
Pour faciliter l'équilibre du passager sur la plateforme d'un dispositif selon l'invention, ce dernier peut comporter des moyens pour assurer le maintien du passager sur la face supérieure de la plateforme.To facilitate the balance of the passenger on the platform of a device according to the invention, the latter may comprise means for ensuring the keeping the passenger on the upper face of the platform.
Pour que le passager maîtrise davantage le dispositif de propulsion et réaliser certains changements de trajectoires, un dispositif de propulsion selon l'invention peut comporter des moyens pour piloter la puissance de compression de fluide d'une station de compression délivrant le fluide sous pression.In order for the passenger to be more in control of the propulsion device and to make certain changes of trajectory, a propulsion device according to the invention may comprise means for controlling the fluid compression power of a compression station delivering the fluid under pressure.
Pour proposer des applications ludiques - du type joute ou arrosage - ou des applications par exemple liées à la lutte contre les incendies, un dispositif peut en outre comporter des moyens coopérant avec la plateforme ou le passager pour projeter un second fluide sous pression.To provide playful applications - jousting or watering type - or applications for example related to firefighting, a device may further comprise means cooperating with the platform or the passenger to project a second fluid under pressure.
Pour protéger les éléments du dispositif positionnés sous la face inférieure de la plateforme lorsque le dispositif est en contact avec le sol ou avec tout autre environnement solide voire pour influer sur la flottabilité du dispositif, ce dernier peut en outre comporter des moyens saillants coopérant avec la plateforme et étant agencés pour prévenir un choc ou un contact direct entre la face inférieure de la plateforme et l'environnement proche non fluide de ladite face inférieure.To protect the elements of the device positioned under the underside of the platform when the device is in contact with the ground or with any other solid environment or to affect the buoyancy of the device, the latter may further comprise projecting means co-operating with the platform and being arranged to prevent shock or direct contact between the underside of the platform and the near non-fluid environment of said lower face.

Le dispositif de propulsion décrit en liaison avec la
Au sens de l'invention et dans le présent document nous utilisons le terme de « tuyère » pour définir un élément de canalisation profilé, destiné à imposer à un fluide en écoulement une augmentation de vitesse. Nous pourrions également utiliser le terme de « buse » pour caractériser un tel élément. Cette augmentation de vitesse du fluide est principalement due à une différence de sections entre l'entrée et la sortie de l'élément - la section de la sortie étant plus faible que celle de l'entrée.Within the meaning of the invention and in this document we use the term "nozzle" to define a profiled pipe element, intended to impose a flow increase a speed fluid. We could also use the term "nozzle" to characterize such an element. This increase in fluid velocity is mainly due to a difference in sections between the input and the output of the element - the section of the output being smaller than that of the input.
Selon la
Ladite au moins une tuyère principale 12a, 12b, est fixée par tous moyens à la plateforme sans présenter de degré de liberté. Pour favoriser l'envol du dispositif, l'orientation de toute tuyère principale suit avantageusement un axe A de préférence sensiblement perpendiculaire à la face inférieure de la plateforme de sorte qu'une tuyère principale expulse un fluide sous pression du proche de la face inférieure 11b de la plateforme 11 vers le lointain de celle-ci. Pour accroître la maniabilité du dispositif, le groupe de poussée d'un dispositif selon l'invention peut comporter en outre deux tuyères secondaires 13a et 13b. Celles-ci sont libres et destinées à être respectivement tenues par un passager 1 au niveau des avant-bras ou des mains. L'ensemble « plateforme, groupe de poussée et passager(s) » présente un centre de gravité CG lorsque ledit ensemble est dressé verticalement tel que l'indique la
Pour délivrer une force de poussée suffisante et permettre un envol puis un déplacement, le dispositif 10 comporte en outre des moyens pour collecter et distribuer un fluide sous pression (par exemple de l'eau) aux tuyères principale(s) et secondaires. Un tel fluide est préférentiellement acheminé au moyen d'un conduit d'alimentation souple 2 depuis une station de compression distante - non représentée sur la
La configuration en « T » - telle que décrite à titre d'exemple préféré en liaison avec la
Pour distribuer le fluide sous pression aux tuyères secondaires 13a et 13b, l'invention prévoit, à titre d'exemple et comme l'indique la
L'invention prévoit en outre que la plateforme 11 puisse présenter des moyens de maintien d'un passager sur la face supérieure 11a de ladite plateforme. Ainsi selon la position préférée d'un passager sur la plateforme d'un dispositif conforme à l'invention, lesdits moyens de maintien peuvent consister - comme l'indique la
Pour favoriser l'envol et d'une manière générale l'utilisation d'un dispositif selon l'invention, la ou les tuyères principales ainsi que les tuyères secondaires pourront être agencées de sorte que le groupe de poussée ainsi constitué délivre en majorité une force de poussée au niveau de la ou des tuyères principales au détriment des tuyères secondaires. Pour cela, la configuration des tuyères (sections des entrées et des sorties respectives desdites tuyères) pourra être choisie pour préférentiellement délivrer de l'ordre de 80% de la force de poussée au niveau de la ou des tuyères principales. Ainsi, à titre d'exemple, une tuyère principale pourra être réalisée avec des sections d'entrée et de sortie respectives sensiblement égales à 50 et 40 millimètres de diamètre et une tuyère secondaire pourra être réalisée avec des sections d'entrée et de sortie respectives sensiblement égales à 40 et 25 millimètres de diamètre. Selon ce mode de réalisation préféré, un conduit secondaire 18a et 18b pourra avoir une section de l'ordre de 40 millimètres de diamètre. Un collecteur 14 pourra disposer quant à lui d'une section de 120 millimètres de diamètres proche de sa base et d'une section de 80 millimètres de diamètres au niveau d'un bras. La section d'un éventuel coude de liaison 15 entre une tuyère principale et un bras du collecteur peut avantageusement adapter les sections respectives du bras et de l'entrée de la tuyère. Toute autre configuration du groupe de poussée pourrait être choisie pour adapter la répartition de la force de poussée entre les tuyères principale(s) et secondaires.To promote the flight and in general the use of a device according to the invention, the main nozzle or nozzles and the secondary nozzles may be arranged so that the thrust group thus formed delivers a majority of force thrust at the main nozzle or nozzles at the expense of secondary nozzles. For this, the configuration of the nozzles (sections of the respective inlets and outlets of said nozzles) may be chosen to preferentially deliver about 80% of the thrust force at the main nozzle or nozzles. Thus, by way of example, a main nozzle may be made with respective inlet and outlet sections substantially equal to 50 and 40 millimeters in diameter and a secondary nozzle may be made with respective inlet and outlet sections. substantially equal to 40 and 25 millimeters in diameter. According to this preferred embodiment, a

Le choix du ou des matériaux pour réaliser les moyens saillants 17 peut être dicté par le niveau de prévention de choc désiré, la résistance au poids exercé par le ou les passagers présent(s) sur la plateforme lors de phases de décollage, atterrissage ou amerrissage. Les moyens saillants 17 peuvent en outre interagir sur la flottabilité du dispositif recherchée selon leurs structure et configuration.The choice of the material or materials for producing the projecting
Un passager d'un dispositif de propulsion conforme à l'invention peut réaliser un nombre inégalé à ce jour de déplacements (en l'air, sous la surface d'un milieu aquatique, etc.). Nous pouvons mentionner qu'un envol peut être déclenché - lors de l'alimentation en fluide sous pression dudit dispositif - si le passager tient les tuyères secondaires, bras tendus vers l'arrière de son corps, dos cambré. Un plongeon peut par exemple être commandé par ledit passager en courbant son corps tête en avant, etc.A passenger of a propulsion device according to the invention can achieve an unmatched number of movements (in the air, under the surface of an aquatic environment, etc.). We can mention that a flight can be triggered - during the supply of pressurized fluid of said device - if the passenger holds the secondary nozzles, arms stretched towards the back of his body, back arched. A dive may for example be controlled by said passenger by bending his head body forward, etc.
Pour faciliter le pilotage du passager et lui conférer une autonomie d'action accrue, l'invention prévoit qu'un dispositif de propulsion puisse comporter en outre des moyens pour piloter la puissance de la station de compression. Ainsi, en réception d'une commande délivrée par de tels moyens et véhiculée par des moyens de communication filaire ou radio adaptés, la station peut moduler la puissance de compression du fluide qu'elle délivre au dispositif de propulsion. Le passager peut ainsi commander par exemple son envol ou encore peaufiner ses déplacements en modulant la pression du fluide circulant dans le conduit d'alimentation le reliant à la station de compression.To facilitate piloting of the passenger and to give it greater autonomy of action, the invention provides that a propulsion device may further comprise means for controlling the power of the compression station. Thus, in reception of a command delivered by such means and conveyed by suitable wire or radio communication means, the station can modulate the compression power of the fluid that it delivers to the propulsion device. The passenger can thus control for example its flight or further refine its movements by modulating the pressure of the fluid flowing in the supply duct connecting it to the compressor station.
Par ailleurs, selon les applications ou utilisations d'un dispositif de propulsion conforme à l'invention, ce dernier peut en outre comporter des moyens 15 (par exemple sous la forme d'une tuyère) pour projeter un fluide sous pression distinct de celui utilisé pour mouvoir le dispositif ou dérivé de ce lui-ci. Ces moyens optionnels coopèrent avantageusement avec la plateforme 11 ou en variante avec le passager (au niveau d'une épaule, de la taille, etc.). L'objectif est ici de proposer une application de sécurité civile du type lutte contre les incendies par exemple ou encore des jeux aquatiques : arrosage de tiers, nouvelle joute où le jet du second fluide matérialise une lance non solide prévenant le risque de blessures tout en conservant sa fonction pour déstabiliser un adversaire...Furthermore, according to the applications or uses of a propulsion device according to the invention, the latter may further comprise means 15 (for example in the form of a nozzle) for projecting a fluid under pressure distinct from that used. to move the device or derived from it. These optional means advantageously cooperate with the
Un dispositif de propulsion conforme à l'invention, par exemple tel que le dispositif 10 décrit à titre d'exemple en liaison avec les
Pour diminuer un tel coût, l'invention prévoit également que la station de compression distante puisse être un appareil dont la fonction principale originelle est différente de l'alimentation en un fluide sous pression d'un dispositif de propulsion. A titre d'exemple, l'invention prévoit qu'un véhicule de pompier terrestre ou nautique puisse être exploité en tant que station de compression distante s'il dispose d'une capacité de compression de fluide suffisante. On peut ainsi mettre à profit la capacité de compression naturelle d'un fluide d'un véhicule nautique à moteur (VNM) tel que par exemple le
Quelque soit la station de compression utilisée, l'invention prévoit que ladite station puisse comporter des moyens pour réguler la puissance de compression à partir d'une commande distante. Ainsi, il est possible de faire interagir les moyens pour piloter la puissance d'une station de compression éventuellement distante d'un dispositif de propulsion conforme à l'invention avec lesdits moyens pour réguler la puissance d'une station ainsi adaptée. Par l'intermédiaire de moyens de communication (filaire ou radio) pour véhiculer un signal de commande émanant du dispositif de propulsion et à destination de la station de compression, un passager dudit dispositif peut piloter à distance la puissance de la station et ainsi adapter ses déplacements réalisés avec le dispositif de propulsion.Whatever the compression station used, the invention provides that said station may comprise means for regulating the power of compression from a remote control. Thus, it is possible to make the means interact to control the power of a compression station possibly remote from a propulsion device according to the invention with said means for regulating the power of a station thus adapted. Via means of communication (wired or radio) to convey a control signal from the propulsion device and to the compressor station, a passenger of said device can remotely control the power of the station and thus adapt its movements made with the propulsion device.
Comme l'indique la
Un grand nombre d'applications ludiques ou de services civils et/ou militaires sont permises grâce à un système de propulsion conforme à l'invention. A titre d'exemple, il est possible de prévoir un VNM transportant un dispositif de propulsion et un conduit d'alimentation pour que le conducteur du VNM puisse à la demande se muer en passager du dispositif.A large number of fun applications or civil and / or military services are allowed through a propulsion system according to the invention. For example, it is possible to provide a VNM carrying a propulsion device and a supply duct so that the driver of the VNM can on request become a passenger of the device.
L'invention ne serait être limitée par les exemples d'utilisation cités.The invention would not be limited by the use examples cited.
Des accessoires pour améliorer encore le caractère ludique ou les conditions d'exploitation d'un tel système pourraient également être apportés : éclairage, moyens de navigation, etc.Accessories to further improve the playfulness or the operating conditions of such a system could also be provided: lighting, navigation means, etc.
