Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of surfboards, in particular to a balancing surfboard which can be controlled by one foot. Background Art

[0002] A surfboard is a piece of water sports equipment specifically designed to glide on the waves. Its design and materials are carefully considered to meet the surfer's needs to maintain balance and move flexibly on the waves. First of all, the material of a surfboard is usually a light but strong material, such as polyethylene foam, polyester resin or fiberglass. These materials ensure the buoyancy and durability of the board, allowing the surfer to stay stable on the waves. The shape and size of the board are also crucial. Generally speaking, surfboards are divided into long, medium and short boards. Longboards are generally between 9 and 12 feet in length, providing a more stable gliding experience and suitable for beginners. Medium boards are between 7 and 9 feet, suitable for intermediate surfers, combining stability and flexibility. Shortboards are generally between 5 and 7 feet and are more suitable for experienced surfers because they are more flexible and can respond to waves faster. The shape of the board is usually divided into three parts: nose, middle and tail. The nose is wider, which helps with stability and balance, while the tail may have different shapes depending on the type and design of the board. Some may be round, square or pointed tails, affecting the surfer's control of the board. The bottom of the surfboard also has different designs to suit different waves and surfing styles. Single convex bottom, double convex bottom and groove bottom are common bottom designs, which affect the stability and speed of the board in the waves.

[0003] Traditional surfboards are durable, but they have some limitations. The gliding of traditional boards depends on the natural wave force. Surfers must accurately sense the waves and master the gliding skills, which makes the general public lack interest in surfing. First, traditional surfboards rely on the power of the waves. For waters with insufficient or unstable waves, the surfing experience may be affected. In contrast, we need a surfboard that can propel itself and provide stable gliding in calm waters or when there are not enough waves, so that surfers can be more independent and autonomous. Secondly, traditional surfboards require a long learning curve, and surfers need to master complex skills and a sense of balance. Many electric surfboards can only provide an auxiliary forward system, and cannot achieve easy and simple multi-directional surfing movements. It is not possible to move forward, backward and turn just by standing on it like a balance car. Most importantly, the propeller technology and flexible operation methods of new surfboards may bring higher speeds and more flexible control, providing surfers with a more diverse and exciting surfing experience. The introduction of this technology may change the rules of the game for traditional surfboards and bring more choices and fun to surfers. Utility Model Content

The power control component 2 is arranged at an upper portion of the surfboard body 1 near the tail end, and the propeller component 3 is arranged at a lower portion of the surfboard body 1 near the tail end. A front filter 31 and a rear filter 32 are respectively arranged at the front and rear of the propeller component 3 to prevent debris from entering. These two figures describe the relative positions of the surfboard body 1, the power control component 2, and the propeller component 3.

[0025] See also Figure 3 The power control component 2 is specifically designed as a groove 11 with a built-in slider on the upper part of the surfboard body 1, and a rectangular control pedal 21 is slidably connected to the groove 11 through the slider. A pressure sensor is arranged in the control pedal 21, and a downwardly bent flexible foot strap 22 is arranged above the control pedal 21. The size of the control pedal 21 is not less than the size of the sole of the foot, and the control pedal 21 is connected to the propeller component 3 through a circuit. When pressure is detected above the control pedal 21, the flexible foot strap 22 is automatically tightened, and a rubber pad 211 for increasing friction is arranged above the control pedal 21. The rubber pad 211 can prevent the operator from slipping and also increase the comfort. The figure describes the specific content of the power control component 2.

[0026] See also Figure 4-5 The thruster assembly 3 has a trapezoidal outer shell made of carbon fiber. The top of the outer shell is designed with two track grooves 33 with built-in sliders, and three cylindrical ducts 4 are arranged side by side inside the thruster assembly 3. The sliders in the track grooves 33 are fixedly connected to the tail of the duct 4. These two figures specifically show the appearance and partial structure of the thruster assembly 3.

[0027] See also Figure 6-7When the control pedal 21 slides backward, the control system controls the double-headed motor 6 in the propeller assembly 3 to increase the forward running power; when the control pedal 21 slides forward, the control system controls the double-headed motor 6 in the propeller assembly 3 to reverse and increase the reverse running power; when the head or tail of the control pedal 21 is stepped on, the control system controls the slider in the track groove 33 to drive the tail of the duct 4 to slide and change the angle to achieve a turn, such as Figure 6 As shown, when the head of the control pedal 21 is stepped on, the leftmost duct 4 is driven by the slider in the track groove 33 to slide outward, so that its water outlet is opposite to the inclined surface, and the overall force of the surfboard body 1 will be tilted to turn right, thus realizing a right turn, and vice versa, realizing a left turn.

[0028] See also Figure 8 A double-headed motor 6 is arranged in the middle of the duct 4, and two blades 5 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the double-headed motor 6. The double-headed motor 6 can adjust the rotation speed of the blades 5 more flexibly.

[0029] Working principle: Through the interaction between the power control component 2 and the propeller component 3. When the user steps on the power control component 2 on the surfboard body 1, the internal pressure sensor will detect the pressure change. Then, the control system will control the tightness of the flexible foot strap 22 according to the pressure change. This power control component 2 is connected to the propeller component 3 at the bottom through the circuit, and controls the position of the duct 4 in the propeller component 3 by adjusting the position of the control pedal 21 and the position of its force center of gravity. When the control pedal 21 slides backward, the control system controls the double-headed motor 6 to increase the forward running power; when sliding forward, it operates in the reverse direction and increases the reverse running power. When the user's center of gravity steps on the head or tail of the control pedal 21, the control system drives the slider in the propeller component 3 to change the angle of the duct 4 to achieve a turn.

[0030] In summary, the balancing surfboard that can be controlled by one foot is provided with a power control assembly 2 on the upper part of the surfboard body 1. The power control assembly 2 is actually a foot placement area. After the sole of the foot is stepped on, the pressure sensor detects that a person has stepped on it and controls the flexible foot strap 22 to tighten to fix the person; the power control assembly 2 is connected to the propeller assembly 3 provided at the lower part of the surfboard body 1 through a circuit. When the control pedal 21 slides backward, the control system controls the double-headed motor 6 in the propeller assembly 3 to increase the forward running power; when the control pedal 21 slides forward, the control system controls The double-headed motor 6 in the propeller assembly 3 operates in reverse and increases the reverse running power; when the head or tail of the control pedal 21 is stepped on, the control system controls the slider in the track groove 33 to drive the tail of the duct 4 to slide and change the angle to achieve turning. Therefore, the operator only needs to control the control pedal 21 with one foot to achieve various surfing actions. Because the surfboard is equipped with a powered electric propeller assembly 3, there is no need to spend a lot of physical strength and time to learn, thereby achieving the effect of being able to move forward, backward and turn through single-foot operation, easier operation, a short learning curve, and being usable in a variety of wave environments.
