Abstract

Pleasure craft for moving over the water. The invention relates to a craft allowing movement over the water. It consists of three floats upon which a frame rests enabling them to be directed and moved. A handlebar directly controls the float 1, while a bladed wheel 4 placed between the floats 2 and 3 enables the assembly to be propelled by means of pedals 5. The craft according to the invention is particularly intended for pleasure use.

Description

DESCRIPTION
De nombreux moyens permettcnt le déplacement de plaisance sur l'eau, nais pour titre utilités ces moyens nécessitent souvent des conditions particulières telles que: ~Le vent; -Etre a deux; -Avoir une force physique importante; -Une période d'adaptation ou d'entrainement; -Un transport difficile.DESCRIPTION
Numerous means allow displacement of pleasure on the water, born for title utilities these means often require particular conditions such as: ~ The wind; -Being with two; -Have significant physical strength; -A period of adaptation or training; -Difficult transportation.

Le dispositif selon l'invention n'entraine pas ce inconvénients. The device according to the invention does not cause this drawback.

I1 s'agit en effet d'un vélo d'eau comptant trois flotteurs. Le flotteur avant est directement commandé par un guidon. Les deux flotteurs arrière sont fixes et ont un rôle porteur et stabilisateur. La propulsion de l'ensemble se fait 2 l'aide d'un pédalier, entrainant par l'intermédiaire de chaines, une roue à aubes. It is indeed a water bike with three floats. The front float is directly controlled by a handlebar. The two rear floats are fixed and have a load-bearing and stabilizing role. The propulsion of the assembly is done using a pedal, driving by means of chains, an impeller.

L'ensemble est facilement démontable et transportable. The assembly is easily removable and transportable.

L'utilisation est rendue possible: -Par vent nul; -En solo; -Sans effort physique important grâce à la posture de l'utilisateur; -nans entrainement du fait de la stabilité de l'ensemble. Use is made possible: -With no wind; -Alone; - Without significant physical effort thanks to the posture of the user; -nans training due to the stability of the whole.

La planche 1/2 représente le dispositif selon l'invention. La planche 2,2 la vue de de'sus. On peut voir que le cadre repose sur trois flotteurs et permet de diriger et de aéplacer ceux-ci. Le pédaiier entralne par l'intermédiaire d'une caille, un axe qui lui-même entraine par l'intermédiaire d'une autre chaine, une roue à aubes. une protection limite ies projections d'eau. Plate 1/2 represents the device according to the invention. Plate 2.2 the view from above. We can see that the frame rests on three floats and allows to direct and move them. The pedal drive via a quail, an axis which itself drives via another chain, an impeller. protection limits water splashes.

Les flotteurs peuvent être realisés à l'aide d'un pain de mousse polyuréthan -ne ou de polysthyrène expansé, recouvert de résine polyester armée. The floats can be made using a polyurethane foam roll or expanded polysthyrene, covered with reinforced polyester resin.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné a un usage de plaisance.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for pleasure use.
