Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To advance a ship or a boat body in the floated state on the water surface by fitting fixing members for fixing and holding the feet of a user to a pair of float boards, and arranging air feeding means on floats giving buoyancy. SOLUTION: A beach sandal-like fixing member 2 for fixing the lower end of the right leg of a user on a float board 1 for the right leg is fitted on the surface of the float board 1 by an adhesive. A beach sandal-like fixing member 2' for fixing the lower end of the left leg of the user on a float board 1' for the left leg is fitted to the front end and rear end of the float board 1' by the adhesive. To keep the body of the user in the floated state, first upper floats 3, 4 for the right leg are fitted to the front and rear ends of the float board 1, and second upper floats 3', 4' for the left leg are fitted to the front and rear ends of the float board 1'. Compressed air is fed to the floats 3, 3' and 4, 4' and 5, 5' via check valves, and the float boards 1, 1' are advanced on the water surface in the floated state.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a water-spinning type floating traveling device. More specifically, the present invention relates to a traveling device in which the entire device is suspended on the water surface with both legs of the rider placed on a pair of float boards. The present invention relates to a water-spinning type floating traveling device configured to apply thrust to a float board by a stock held in both hands of a user to advance the entire device together with a user.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Usually, means for traveling on water include:
Boats, ships or boats are used, and if necessary,
An engine and an outboard motor are attached to the hull, and the hull moves forward by thrust generated by a propeller. A boat, a boat or a person on a boat can freely change the traveling speed by adjusting the output of the engine or the outboard motor.

[0003]

However, as long as a person is on a boat, boat or boat, a person cannot move forward on the water surface while floating on the water surface.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a boat, boat or boat that, unlike a boat, boat or boat, is capable of advancing the body of the boat, boat or boat while floating above the water surface. It is an object of the present invention to provide a water-smating type floating traveling device. In order to achieve the above object, a fixing member for holding a user's foot fixedly is attached to each of the pair of float boards, and at least one float board gives each float board a buoyancy. A water-float type floating traveling device is provided according to the invention, characterized in that a float is provided and means for supplying air to the float are arranged on each float board. In order to allow the boat, ship or boat to move forward with the float board floating above the water surface, a tool operated by the user to push the water back is grasped by each of the user's hands. ing. A member having a reverse L-shaped cross section is attached to the lower end of the tool.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings illustrating preferred embodiments of the present invention. Beach sandal-shaped fixing member 2 for holding the lower end of the user's right foot on a float board 1 for the right foot
Are attached to the surface of the float board 1 using an adhesive. Also, float board 1 'for left foot
A beach sandal-shaped fixing member 2 'for holding the lower end of the user's left foot is floated using an adhesive.
It is attached to the board 1 '.

A first upper float 3 for the right foot and an upper float 4 for the left foot are attached to the front end and the rear end of the float board 1 in order to keep the user's posture while the user's body is floating. In addition, a second upper float 4 for the left foot and a second upper float 4 'for the left foot are attached to the front end and the rear end of the float board 1'. The upper floats 4 and 4 'are attached to the float boards 1 and 1' by, for example, heat-sealing the entire circumference of a polyethylene sheet or a vinyl sheet.
It is effective to carry out the process by fixing it to the upper surfaces of the boards 1 and 1 '. Further, a bottom float 5 for the right foot and a bottom float 5 'for the left foot are attached to the lower surface of the flow board 1' to additionally hold the posture of the user while the user's body is floating. . Also in this case, the bottom floats 5 and 5 'are attached to the float boards 1 and 1' by fixing the entire circumference of the polyethylene sheet or vinyl sheet to the lower surfaces of the float boards 1 and 1 'by heat sealing. This is done by letting

[0007] A first upper float 3 for the right foot, a first upper float 3 'for the left foot, a second upper float 4 for the right foot, a second upper float 4' for the left foot, and a right foot In order to keep the bottom float 5 for the left foot and the bottom float 5 'for the left foot in an expanded state, the compressed air flows through a check valve (not shown) to the above-mentioned floats 3, 3', 4 and 4 '.
And 5 and 5 'respectively.

A tool (not shown) operated by a user to push the water backwards so that the boat, ship or boat can move forward with the float boat floating above the water surface. Are held by the user's both hands. The lower end of this tool is formed in an inverted L-shape, and it is effective that the working surface of this portion vigorously comes into contact with water and the user's body is advanced by the recoil thereof.

[0009] While the water-spooling floating traveling device is moving forward,
Since the foot board 1 for the right foot and the float board 1 'for the left foot are held substantially parallel to each other, a helical spring or rubber strap is resiliently arranged between both float boards 1 and 1'. Preferably.

Since the water-spinning type floating traveling device according to the present invention is constructed as described above, the user's body is standing on the float board 1 for the right foot and the float board 1 'for the left foot. In this state, by operating the above-mentioned device used for propulsion held by the user's hand, it is possible to advance the water-spinning traveling device together with the user's body.

While the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the drawings, many of the details described above can be modified as appropriate by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention. It will be understood that there is. It goes without saying that all of these variations are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
