Abstract

This invention discloses a high-strength, impact-resistant, and safe triangular hydrofoil system, belonging to the field of marine hydrofoil technology. Existing conventional hydrofoils often prioritize lightweight design and buoyancy for increased speed, but generally suffer from thin structures, poor impact resistance, susceptibility to breakage, easy damage in collisions, and low safety under surge conditions. This invention employs a one-piece triangular wing surface combined with a 20° angled pressure-bearing support column structure, abandoning the extreme lightweight buoyancy design and focusing on strengthening the overall structural rigidity, impact resistance, and overall pressure-bearing capacity. The triangular wing of this invention is a single-piece molded structure with a large stress area and even load distribution. The angled support structure eliminates stress concentration, greatly improving the hydrofoil's wave resistance, collision resistance, and turbulence resistance. This invention does not pursue extreme buoyancy for increased speed; its core advantages are superior structural strength, durability, extremely low breakage rate, and extremely high navigation safety. It is suitable for complex wave zones, complex nearshore waters, and high-frequency usage scenarios, solving the industry pain points of traditional hydrofoils such as susceptibility to impact damage, breakage, and poor safety. It offers high value.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of high-speed hydrofoil technology for marine accessories, specifically relating to a high-strength, impact-resistant, and highly safe triangular structure durable hydrofoil system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the core design of conventional marine hydrofoils revolves around lightweight, high buoyancy, high speed, and low drag.

[0003] Existing technologies have significant practical drawbacks:

[0004] 1. Conventional hydrofoils have thin structures, small wall thickness, and poor overall rigidity. In complex nearshore waters with floating debris and large waves, they are prone to collision damage, bending, and breakage.

[0005] 2. The vertical support column structure suffers from severe stress concentration and is prone to fatigue damage after high-frequency vibration, resulting in a short service life and a high failure rate.

[0006] 3. Lightweight hydrofoils sacrifice structural strength for buoyancy performance, resulting in extremely low tolerance for damage during daily use. Even minor collisions or scrapes can damage the hydrofoils, leading to extremely poor safety and durability.

[0007] 4. Traditional hydrofoils lack an integral pressure-bearing frame structure, resulting in weak torsional and compressive strength, making them unsuitable for high-frequency, high-intensity, and complex aquatic conditions.

[0008] In summary, existing hydrofoils are generally "good at floating and running, but not durable," which seriously restricts the safe and stable use of high-speed boats in complex waters. The industry lacks a dedicated hydrofoil structure with structural strength, impact resistance, safety, and durability as its core features. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Purpose of the invention

[0010] In response to the shortcomings of existing hydrofoils, such as fragile structure, susceptibility to impact damage and breakage, low safety, and inability to withstand long-term harsh operating conditions, this invention provides a high-strength, impact-resistant, and safe triangular hydrofoil system. It abandons the traditional hydrofoil design approach that prioritizes buoyancy, speed, and lightweighting, and instead focuses on structural strength, impact resistance, durability, and navigation safety as its core design objectives, thereby significantly improving the service life of the hydrofoil and the tolerance for errors in water navigation.

[0011] Technical solution

[0012] This invention is a high-strength, impact-resistant, and safe triangular hydrofoil system, mainly composed of a symmetrical integrated triangular hydrofoil body and a 20° tilt angle thickened pressure-bearing support column.

[0013] The core innovation structure is as follows:

[0014] 1. One-piece thick-body triangular hydrofoil structure

[0015] This invention employs a one-piece molded delta wing structure, abandoning the thin and lightweight design and adopting a thick and wide structure with no weak points at the joints. The triangular geometry itself has natural advantages in terms of compressive strength, torsional strength, and impact resistance. Compared with rectangular or trapezoidal hydrofoils, the overall structural stability, rigidity, and impact resistance are significantly improved.

[0016] 2. 20° Golden Incline Pressure Support Structure

[0017] The support column is fixed at a 20° angle. This angle is not for extreme drag reduction and speed increase, but for optimal dispersion of impact load. When the hydrofoil is hit by underwater floating objects or violently impacted by waves, the inclined structure can disperse the concentrated impact force in both the lateral and longitudinal directions, completely solving the fatal defects of stress concentration and easy breakage of vertical support columns.

[0018] 3. Rigid bearing connection at the center of gravity

[0019] The support column connection points are precisely located in the center of gravity area of ​​the triangular hydrofoil, and all impact loads and turbulence loads are evenly distributed across the entire triangular wing surface, eliminating local overload, preventing local cracking, damage, and breakage, and maximizing the overall durability.

[0020] 4. Overall safety redundancy structure design

[0021] This invention abandons extreme buoyancy and high speed performance, while retaining basic navigation lift and maximizing the safety redundancy of the stacked structure. It can be adapted to complex and harsh scenarios such as reef waters, debris waters, and large wave waters. Minor scratches and impacts will not damage the hydrofoils, and navigation safety is greatly improved.

[0022] Beneficial effects

[0023] Compared with existing lightweight, speed-enhancing hydrofoils, this invention has completely differentiated core advantages:

[0024] 1. Extremely impact-resistant and durable, with an exceptionally long service life.

[0025] Relying on a triangular integral rigid structure and an inclined load-distributing structure, its impact resistance, turbulence resistance, and torsional pressure resistance far exceed those of traditional hydrofoils. It is not easily damaged, broken, or deformed, and is suitable for high-frequency and high-intensity use.

[0026] 2. Navigation safety has been greatly improved.

[0027] It is not prone to failure under complex water conditions, surge impacts, and accidental collisions, completely solving the risk of loss of navigation and capsizing caused by damage or breakage of traditional hydrofoils, and has an extremely high safety tolerance.

[0028] 3. The structure has no weak points, resulting in an extremely low failure rate.

[0029] It is integrally molded, without splicing, stress concentration points, or fatigue damage defects, resulting in extremely high stability during long-term water operation and extremely low maintenance costs.

[0030] 4. Wider range of applicable scenarios and stronger practicality

[0031] It is not picky about the water environment and can be adapted to various scenarios such as leisure navigation, high-speed sports, complex nearshore waters, and complex wild waters, solving the industry pain points of traditional high-end hydrofoils being "delicate, easily damaged, and not durable".

[0032] 5. Original design, differentiated patent barriers

[0033] While all hydrofoils in the industry follow a lightweight and speed-increasing approach, this patent uniquely focuses on high strength, impact resistance, safety, and durability. Its technical approach is unparalleled, and its patent originality and protection are extremely strong. Attached Figure Description
