[0004] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the above technical problems.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the first purpose of the utility model is to provide an armrest.

[0006] The second purpose of the utility model is to provide a water transportation tool.

[0007] To achieve the first purpose of the utility model, an embodiment of the utility model provides a handrail for use on a water vehicle, the water vehicle comprising a hull, the handrail comprising: a handrail rod; an handrail arm, the handrail arm being provided with an handrail arm slide groove, the handrail rod being arranged in the handrail arm slide groove; a fastening assembly, the handrail rod and the handrail arm being connected by the fastening assembly, the fastening assembly having a fastened state and a relaxed state, and in the relaxed state, the handrail rod and the handrail arm are slidingly connected.

[0008] Since the handrail bar can slide in the arm slot and be fixed by the fastening assembly, this design allows the handrail to adapt to the needs of different hulls. Users can adjust the position of the handrail according to actual conditions to make it more suitable for specific usage conditions or preferences. The design of the fastening assembly simplifies the installation and adjustment process of the handrail. In a loose state, the user can easily slide the handrail bar to the desired position and then fix it with the fastening assembly without complex tools or professional skills. On water vehicles, handrails are an important guarantee for passenger safety.

When the handrail needs to be replaced or maintained, the standardized design of the mounting parts makes this process more convenient. It can be quickly disassembled and replaced without affecting other parts of the hull, reducing maintenance costs and time.

[0023] In any of the above technical solutions, several handrail arms are matched with the same handrail rod.

[0024] By connecting multiple arms to a single grab bar, the load can be distributed throughout the entire handrail system. This distributed load design allows the handrail to withstand greater forces, especially in emergency operations or inclement weather conditions, providing a more stable support. Several arms can be pre-assembled to a single grab bar, which simplifies the installation process and reduces the complexity and time of multiple separate installations on the hull. It also facilitates future adjustments or maintenance because each arm can be adjusted independently without affecting the others.

[0025] To achieve the second purpose of the utility model, an embodiment of the utility model provides a water vehicle, which includes: a hull; and a handrail as in any of the above technical solutions, wherein the handrail is arranged on the hull.

[0026] Since the handrail in the above scheme is easy to install and disassemble, and the handrail rod and the handrail arm are both detachable, the handrail is installed on the hull. If a part of the handrail has a problem, it can be disassembled separately and repaired or replaced, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost of water transportation vehicles.
