Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a floating boat for swimming assistance used by beginner swimmers.

If you think about why beginners can't swim, it's because beginners can't breathe when they get into the water, and if they could breathe, they would be able to swim freely even if they were beginners. However, beginners are unable to grasp the water, that is, to generate buoyancy on their own through swimming force, and this makes it difficult for them to breathe. However, it takes a very long time to acquire the feeling of grasping water on your own.

However, when used by a novice swimmer, a floating ring as a well-known swimming aid device provides buoyancy to the swimmer, but it is difficult to support the swimmer horizontally, and it is difficult to support the swimmer's swimming movement, especially when swimming by hand. It interferes with exercise and requires a long time for beginners to acquire swimming ability, and it is also difficult to prevent the swimmer from slipping away from the swimmer or rolling during the swimming exercise.

Therefore, the present invention not only provides buoyancy to swimmers such as beginners, but also supports the swimmer in a nearly horizontal position and does not interfere with the swimmer's swimming movement, making it easier to acquire swimming ability. This project proposes a highly safe floating boat for swimming assistance.

That is, in the present invention, vertically long floats are arranged at appropriate intervals on the left and right sides of a vertically long boat main body, and the upper end of the main pipe at the center of the connecting member whose front shape is approximately mountain-shaped is connected to the main pipe of the boat main body. The object of the present invention is to provide a floating boat for assisting swimming, characterized in that the upper ends of the auxiliary pipes on both the left and right sides of the connecting member are connected to the lower surface of the corresponding left and right floats.

Next, the illustrated embodiment of the present invention will be described. Reference numeral 1 is a vertically long boat body made of lightweight material such as wood, and body-fixing clamp belts 2, 2 are provided at the front and rear of the lower surface of the boat body 1, respectively. The other end of the clamp belt 2 is inserted into a bucket 3 provided at one end of each clamp belt 2 so as to be able to be locked therein, and a thin bottom plate 4 is fixed to the lower surface of the boat main body 1. .

Numerals 5 and 5 are vertically elongated floats made of polystyrene foam or airbags, which are arranged symmetrically at appropriate intervals on the left and right sides of the boat main body 1, and thin reinforcing plates 6 are fixed to the lower surfaces of the floats 5, respectively. A pipe 7 is suspended from the center of the lower surface of the reinforcing plate 6.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a connecting member that connects the boat main body 1 and the floats 5, 5, and has a frontal shape that is approximately mountain-shaped 9, and a main pipe 10 that is inclined backward and downward in the center.
The upper end of the main pipe 10 is connected to the center of the bottom plate 4.
The upper ends of the left and right auxiliary pipes 11, 11 connected to the lower ends are inserted into the corresponding left and right pipes 7, 7, respectively, and the bolts 12 are screwed into the sides of each pipe 7.
The pipe 7 and the auxiliary pipe 11 are fixed by tightening.

When the floating boat is used for swimming, the boat main body 1 is tied to the torso of the swimmer S using the clamp belt 2, and the boat enters the water. Then, swimmer S will float on the left and right floats 5, 5.
The boat floats on the water surface due to the buoyancy of the boat, and takes a substantially horizontal position due to the vertically long boat body 1 and the floats 5, 5, so it can move its limbs and perform swimming movements such as crawling. During this swimming movement, the floats 5, 5 are arranged on the left and right sides at appropriate intervals from the main body of the boat 1, so that they do not interfere with the swimming movement and do not interfere with the swimmer's movement.
The connecting member 8 connecting the boat main body 1 and the floats 5, 5
Also, since the front shape is a mountain-like shape 9, it does not interfere with swimming motion.

In addition, as swimmer S gains swimming power, bolt 1
2, adjust the depth of fit between the pipe 7 and the auxiliary pipe 11, re-tighten the bolt 12, raise the position of the floats 5, 5, relatively lower the position of the boat main body 1, and swimmer S himself. It is also possible to gradually improve swimming ability by creating buoyancy. Incidentally, the height position of the boat main body 1 may be adjusted by providing a telescopic adjustment section in the main pipe 10 and using the telescopic adjustment section.

Also, even if swimmer S has swimming ability, float 5,
Since the inclination is regulated by 5, it can be used for correcting swimming form.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the hanging part 13 attached to the bottom plate 4' on the lower surface of the boat main body 1' and the upper end of the main pipe 10' of the connecting member are connected by a longitudinal pin 14, and the boat main body 1' The structure allows the bottom plate 4' to come into contact with the corresponding right and left projecting side edges 15 of the main pipe 10' when the boat body 1' tilts left and right to a certain degree, giving a certain degree of freedom to the left and right tilt of the boat main body 1'. I don't mind if you do that.

It should be noted that the clamp belt 2 does not necessarily have to be attached to the boat body 1 in advance, and it is also possible to bind the swimmer S and the boat body 1 using a regular belt, string, etc. when in use. do not have.

As mentioned above, in the floating boat of the present invention, the left and right floats not only provide buoyancy to beginner swimmers when used for swimming, but also work together with the chevron-shaped connecting members to avoid getting in the way of swimming movements, and to make the boat vertically long. The float and boat main body allow the swimmer to maintain a horizontal position, making it easy to acquire swimming skills, and the floats on the left and right prevent the swimmer from rolling, making it extremely safe for beginners when swimming. ing.
