Definitions
- the present invention relates to a kayak, which comprises a lightweight hull that delimits a housing with a seat for one occupant or more, providing the boat with the corresponding positions for each occupant.
- the traditional kayak consists of a light boat, with a stylized hull, for one or more crew, which is driven with a double oar that must be handled freehand by the occupant of the boat, without supporting it anywhere.
- the kayak forms a boat that is widely used for sporting purposes, for example in river races, lakes, etc. due to the effort that requires its handling, but that is not applicable as a pleasure boat in large bodies of water.
- the present invention aims at a kayak constituted so that it requires less effort for its displacement and, above all, that it can be handled comfortably, by the occupant thereof.
- the kayak of the invention is a water vehicle for one or more users, which is propelled by means of a propeller operated by means of pedals, and, simultaneously, by a traditional double oar. It is a vehicle designed, as it is said, for the combined use of both propulsion systems or by means of only one of them.
- the kayak of the invention comprises a light and stylized helmet, with a seat for one or more users, which has its own drive means, constituted by one or more propellers driven by pedal mechanisms that are arranged in front of each seat.
- the kayak hull has a propeller mounted inferiorly on its rear part from pedals mounted in front and above the seat, whose pedals and propeller are related by means of a transmission.
- the kayak hull of the invention is subsequently mounted in symmetrical positions with respect to the middle longitudinal plane of said hull, two rudders jointly from a remote that is located on one side of the seat.
- the transmission between the drive control and the rudders can be done using a transmission cable.
- the kayak of the invention resembles a traditional kayak in terms of its general configuration, based on an elongated helmet of stylized configuration, which can be handled, also as in a traditional kayak, by means of a double paddle, but which It has its own propulsion means (pedals, gear, propeller ...), which can be operated by the person / s who occupy the kayak and allow large displacements to be carried out with minimal effort.
- the kayak's helmet forms, behind the seat, a cellar that is accessible through an upper opening, which is closed by a lid.
- This opening can have a profile, for example of plastic material, fixed on its contour, on which the lid fits, preferably formed from an elastically deformable material.
- the helmet forms superiorly, in front of the seat, a recess that is longitudinally crossed by an intermediate double wall separation, which protrudes superiorly with respect to the surface of the helmet.
- the pedals are mounted, the double wall crossing the axis of the same and carrying said solidarity shaft a pinion that is located between the two walls of the intermediate separation.
- This propeller is connected through a transmission the propeller that is mounted below the hull, in a delayed position with respect to that occupied by the sprocket.
- the kayak hull of the invention inferiorly forms a trilobular cross section, with a main central body and two lateral auxiliary bodies.
- the main central body In the main central body is located the accommodation or hole for the passenger and the rear cellar.
- this main central body is limited in the stern by a transverse plane and ends in a bow of very stylized decreasing width.
- the drive mechanism composed of the propeller and pedals is mounted on the main central body.
- the lateral auxiliary bodies form two posterior extensions from the transverse plane that subsequently limits the central body, in each of whose extensions one of the rudders is mounted.
- the auxiliary lateral bodies they conform previous extensions of decreasing width, very stylized, that run on either side of the bow of the central body, with shorter length than the same.
- the seat of the kayak is adjustable, for which it is mounted on longitudinal guides in solidarity with the hull.
- the pedals are mounted in front of and above the surface of the seat, so that their operation can be carried out in a comfortable position of the occupant of the boat, which can also be used to achieve a greater effect on the boat's drive, a traditional double oar. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS.
- Figure 1 a top plan view of the kayak.
- Figure 2 shows a side elevation of the same boat.
- Figure 3 shows a schematic longitudinal section of the kayak, according to the average longitudinal plane thereof.
- Figure 4 is a section of the access mouth to the cellar, with a closing lid, taken along the line IV-IV of Figure 1.
- Figures 5 to 11 are schematic cross sections of the boat, taken according to points 5 to 11 of Figure 1, to show the evolution of the hull shapes.
- the kayak of the invention is shown in plan and side elevation, which comprises a hull which, as shown in Figures 5 to 11, forms a trilobular cross-section inferiorly, with a main central body ( 1) and two lateral auxiliary bodies (2 and 3).
- the central body (1) maintains an approximately constant height between sections (9 and 11), while from section 9 the bottom has an ascending inclination, reducing the height of said body, until it ends in a transverse plane (4 ) which subsequently limits this central body.
- the lateral auxiliary bodies (2 and 3) maintain a height approximately constant throughout the same and run substantially parallel to each other, extending, starting from of the transverse plane (4) that subsequently limits the central body (1), in portions (5 and 6), in each of which a rudder (7) is mounted, as best seen in Figure 2.
- the central body (1) For its anterior part the central body (1) forms a bow (8) of decreasing width, until it ends at the tip, the lateral bodies (2 and 3) forming two anterior extensions (9 and 10), substantially parallel, that run to one and another side of the bow (8) of the central body, without reaching the end thereof.
- the central body (1) has an intermediate platform on which a seat (11) or more is mounted (as many as users for whom the boat is configured), by means of longitudinal rails (12) that allow to regulate the position of said / s seat / s.
- the helmet of the central body (1) forms a cellar (13) which is provided with an access mouth, figure 4, on whose contour a ring (14) is mounted, for example of plastic material, on which a closure cap (15) can be adjusted, preferably of an elastically flexible material.
- the hull subsequently has, in the area of lower height, a central projection (22) in which a propeller (23) is mounted that can be operated by the pedal mechanism (19) through a transmission (24) that runs through the intermediate separation (17).
- the pedal mechanism (19) is located in front and slightly above the surface of the seat (11).
- the rudders (7) are operable through a cable, not shown, from a control (25) located on one of the sides of the seat (11), the two rudders (7) being jointly operable from the control (25).
- the kayak of the invention can be easily operated by a person, located in a comfortable position on the seat (11) and with the control (25) for Rudder control (7) located in easily accessible position.
- the kayak of the invention can also be driven by a double oar of traditional constitution and handling.
- the Kayak has only one seat, for a crew member, the boat could have two or more seats, each with a pedaling mechanism related to the chain or transmission means for driving the propeller, all this without increasing the length of the case.
