Definitions

  • a first construction variant to date was the one in which the bicycle frame was mounted on two floats on the left and right, while a paddle wheel in the middle provided for the movement, which was driven by the pedals.
  • the whole thing not only became a huge, unwieldy "piece of furniture", but the typical two-wheeler characteristics were lost, which also require a certain skill to maintain balance.
  • a second construction variant was basically nothing more than a three-wheeler with huge air-filled plastic wheels, similar to a tractor.
  • construction variant 1 the same can be said as for construction variant 1; with the addition that this was even slower and slower than the first.
  • this newly invented water bike thus consists in that a slightly modified bike frame 2 is mounted on a surfboard-like floating raft 1. A drive screw or propeller 3 is mounted underneath this float 1, which is put into operation with a pedal and a chain 5 or a cardan shaft. The chain or the cardan shaft is guided downwards through an opening in the float 1.
  • a chain was chosen as the power transmission medium, while in the case of water bikes manufactured in series, this chain is then replaced by a cardan shaft. This will not only reduce lubrication and rust problems, but will also reduce the water resistance when driving.
  • a special control fin 6 is mounted on the underside, which is firmly connected to the steering wheel via a shaft and can thus be rotated in both directions.
  • an adjustable gear ratio is also provided here, as is the case with normal bicycles.
  • a braking possibility is created in that the bicycle is provided with a rigid run, so that a braking effect can be achieved by turning backwards.
  • the connection between the bicycle frame and the float is realized with quick-release fasteners, so that the bicycle frame can be removed from the float in two or three steps. In this way, two relatively light individual parts are created, which can be carried very well or transported on the car roof.
  • two support floats can be installed on the left and right, which make it easier to keep your balance.
  • a second water bike can be coupled to the first by means of rods in a simple manner, so that both can ride side by side in parallel.
  • the inventor has succeeded in building a water bike which eliminates all the disadvantages of the water bikes constructed up to now and creates the conditions for the water bike to finally become a popular new popular sport, which can be carried out far from the exhaust fumes of the street and at the same time relieves traffic on the street.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne une bicyclette marine consistant en un cadre de bicyclette monté sur un flotteur analogue à une planche de surf. Avec cette combinaison, il est possible de réaliser une bicyclette marine atteignant des vitesses très supérieures à celles des modèles construits jusqu'à présent.
