Definitions

  • the present invention provides a flipper, and more particularly, to a flipper that is strengthened in structure.
  • Flippers are commonly used in water sports. Flippers are used to increase the force receiving area when the user paddles the water especially in water diving. However, different muscle strengths can influence the force and endurance during paddling. For example, when leg muscles are in a down-kicking state, the muscles can provide a relatively large force with good endurance, so the main propulsion during water diving is provided by the water paddling action in the down-kicking state. To perform the down-kicking water paddling action repeatedly, the diver must withdraw his or her legs repeatedly in the form of up-kicking.
  • muscles responsible for the up-kicking water paddling action are usually weaker, so the need of providing the same propulsion level in the up-kicking state as in the down-kicking state makes the diver liable to fatigue because the muscles responsible for the up-kicking water paddling action cannot withstand such a load.
  • a resistance-reducing design is often adopted in conventional flippers. For example, a soft material is used or perforations are made on the surface of the blade to allow the water to flow through the flipper.
  • a soft material is used or perforations are made on the surface of the blade to allow the water to flow through the flipper.
  • these measures can reduce the resistance in the up-kicking state, they also reduce the resistance in the down-kicking state, thus, significantly reducing the propulsion.
  • An objective of the present invention is to provide a flipper which can reduce the resistance in the up-kicking state while still keeping sufficient propulsion in the down-kicking state.
  • the present invention provides a flipper which comprises a pocket, a blade and a strengthening structure.
  • the pocket is used to accommodate the foot of a user.
  • the blade extends forwards from the pocket.
  • the strengthening structure is detachably disposed at the blade and extends to reach the front edge of the blade.
  • the flexural strength of the strengthening structure is larger than that of the blade to constrain the swing angle of the blade with respect to the pocket.
  • the flipper can not only provide a larger propulsion in the down-kicking state, but also decrease the resistance of water in the up-kicking state.

  • the terms such as “front”, “left”, “right”, “top surface” and “bottom surface” used hereinbelow are defined with respect to a direction presented by the flipper when being worn by a user.
  • the front corresponds to the same direction as the toes
  • the top surface corresponds to the foot instep of the user
  • the bottom surface corresponds to the foot sole of the user.
  • the “up-kicking state” and the “down-kicking state” referred to hereinbelow are defined according to the flexural states of the flipper from the resistance of water when the user paddles the water with his or her legs.
  • the “down-kicking state” refers to the flexural state of the flipper when the user paddles the water with his or her legs in the direction towards which the user faces
  • the “up-kicking state” refers to the flexural state of the flipper when the user paddles the water with his or her legs opposite to the direction towards which the user faces.
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B show a schematic front view and a schematic back view of a flipper according to the first embodiment of the present invention respectively.
  • the present invention provides a flipper 1 , which comprises a pocket 101 , a blade 110 and a strengthening structure 120 .
  • the pocket 101 is adapted to accommodate the foot of the user just like a shoe or a sock, and selectively accommodates the ankle of the user.
  • the blade 110 is roughly fan-shaped or tabular structure and extends forwards from the pocket 101 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 is detachably disposed at the blade 110 and extends to reach the front edge of the blade 110 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 may extend beyond or somewhat behind the front edge of the blade 110 . In this embodiment, the strengthening structure 120 extends just to reach the front edge of the blade 110 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 may be disposed on the top surface 111 or bottom surface 112 of the blade 110 , or alternatively, there may be two strengthening structures disposed on the top surface 111 and the bottom surface 112 of the blade 110 respectively.
  • the flexural strength of the strengthening structure 120 is larger than that of the blade 110 to constrain the swing angle of the blade 110 with respect to the pocket 101 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 may swing with respect to the pocket 101 within the restrained swing angle; namely, the strengthening structure 120 may swing within the restrained swing angle much more easily than swing beyond the restrained swing angle.
  • the blade 110 also may swing much more easily within the restrained swing angle.
  • the swing angles of the blade 110 or the strengthening structure 120 may further be defined as first swing angles and second swing angles.
  • first swing angle is the swing angle of the blade 110 with respect to the pocket 101 when the flipper 1 is in the down-kicking state.
  • the first swing angle may have a maximum value of 30 degrees although it is not limited thereto;
  • the second swing angle is the swing angle of the blade 110 with respect to the pocket 101 when the flipper 1 is in the up-kicking state.
  • the second swing angle may have a maximum value of 70 degrees although it is not limited thereto either. Therefore, the flipper 1 can provide a larger propulsion in the down-kicking state and decrease the resistance of water in the up-kicking state.
  • the user can choose the flipper 1 to be equipped with the strengthening structure 120 or not in accordance with physical condition of the user.
  • the flipper 1 will not be constrained by the strengthening structure 120 if the flipper 1 is not equipped with the strengthening structure 120 , and the swing angle of the blade 110 with respect to the pocket 101 may exceed the first swing angle and the second swing angle.
  • FIGS. 3B , 4 B, 5 B and 6 B A person skilled in the art can easily conceive the enablement of the flipper 1 without the strengthening structure 120 after referring to the following drawings, i.e. FIGS. 3B , 4 B, 5 B and 6 B. Thus, the further details may be omitted hereinafter.
  • the strengthening structure 120 may extend on the top surface 111 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 may have two strengthening ribs 121 which extend from the left side and right side of the pocket 101 along one of the two lateral portions of the blade 110 towards the front edge of the blade 110 respectively.
  • the aforesaid two sides of the pocket 101 refer to the two portions of the pocket 101 to the left and the right of the user's foot when he or she wears the flipper 1 . Therefore, the strengthening structure 120 can further avoid the flexure of the pocket 101 caused by water, thus saving the user more strength.
  • the aforesaid two lateral portions of the blade 110 refer to the left edge portion and the right edge portion of the top surface 111 of the blade 110 . Therefore, when the strengthening ribs 121 of the strengthening structure 120 extend forwards from the two sides of the pocket 101 along the two lateral portions of the blade 110 , the strengthening structure 120 can constrain the swing angle of the two lateral portions of the blade 110 with respect to the pocket 101 . Because the middle portion of the blade 110 is not constrained by the strengthening structure 120 , the middle portion will be flexed by the resistance of water when the user kicks down, thereby providing larger propulsion for the user to paddle through the water.
  • the strengthening structure 120 may further have a strengthening sheet 122 .
  • the strengthening sheet 122 is connected with the strengthening ribs 121 and can extend from the strengthening ribs 121 towards the top surface 111 of the blade 110 so that the two strengthening ribs 121 are connected integrally to the strengthening sheet 122 .
  • the strengthening sheet 122 covers the blade 110 but exposes a middle portion of the blade 110 , so the middle portion can still be flexed by the resistance of water when the user kicks down.
  • the strengthening structure 120 of this embodiment may also be disposed on the bottom surface 112 of the blade 110 .
  • the two strengthening ribs 121 of the strengthening structure 120 can extend from the left and right sides of the pocket 101 along the two lateral parts of the bottom surface 112 of the blade 110 towards the front edge of the blade 110 respectively.
  • the strengthening sheet 122 can extend from the strengthening ribs 121 towards the bottom surface 112 of the blade 110 and can be connected integrally to the two strengthening ribs 121 disposed on the bottom surface 112 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 may further have a strengthening layer 123 which covers the bottom of the pocket 101 . In this way, the user will not be punctured by an object when he or she walks on the ground wearing the flipper 1 .
  • the blade 110 and the strengthening structure 120 may optionally be made of different materials; or alternatively, the strengthening structure 120 may be made to have a larger flexural strength through the form design of the strengthening structure 120 .
  • the strengthening structure 120 may be made to be thicker.
