[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model discloses a hydrofoil booster 10 , comprising: a hydrofoil power auxiliary device 20 and a main body structure 30 .

[0038] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the hydrofoil power assist device 20 includes: a base 100, a first battery group 200, a second battery group 300, a mast clamp 400, and a power assembly 500.

[0039] The base 100 is a hollow cavity structure, and the base 100 has a left battery compartment 110 and a right battery compartment 120 spaced apart from each other (such as Figure 6 In addition, the base 100 is provided with a plurality of movable adjustment slots 130 (such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown).

[0040] The first battery pack 200 is detachably installed in the left battery compartment 110 , and the second battery pack 300 is detachably installed in the right battery compartment 120 .

[0041] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the power assembly 500 is installed on the mast clamp 400 , and the power assembly 500 includes a motor 510 and a propeller 520 disposed at the output end of the motor 510 .

[0042] The first battery pack 200 and the second battery pack 300 are electrically connected to the motor 510 .

[0043] The main structure 30 includes a top rod 31 and a mast 32 .

[0044] The base 100 is disposed at the connection between the top rod 31 and the mast 32 (eg Figure 1 As shown), a plurality of fasteners 600 are sequentially passed through the top of the mast 32, the movable adjustment slot 130 of the base 100 and the top rod 31 (as shown Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown), so that the top end of the mast 32, the base 100 and the top rod 31 are fastened to each other.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the mast clamp 400 is clamped on the pole body of the mast 32 .

[0046] In the present invention, a plurality of fasteners 600 are sequentially passed through the top of the mast 32 , the movable adjustment slot 130 of the base 100 , and the top rod 31 , thereby achieving a fastened connection among the mast 32 , the base 100 , and the top rod 31 .

[0047] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in particular, a plurality of movable adjustment slots 130 are provided on the base 100. Since the movable adjustment slots 130 have good movable redundancy, the fasteners 600 can be flexibly adjusted therein to adapt to the bolt holes at different positions of the top rods 31 and masts 32 of different models of non-powered hydrofoils, thereby improving the compatibility of the product.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, a left elastic clip 111 is provided at the door of the left battery compartment 110, and a first buckle 210 cooperating with the left elastic clip 111 is provided on the shell of the first battery pack 200. Similarly, a right elastic clip 121 is provided at the door of the right battery compartment 120, and a second buckle 310 cooperating with the right elastic clip 121 is provided on the shell of the second battery pack 300. In this way, through the cooperation between the left elastic clip 111 and the first buckle 210, the first battery pack 200 can be stably installed in the left battery compartment 110, and the first battery pack 200 can also be quickly removed from the left battery compartment 110. Similarly, through the cooperation between the right elastic clip 121 and the second buckle 310, the second battery pack 300 can be stably installed in the right battery compartment 120, and the second battery pack 300 can also be quickly removed from the right battery compartment 120.

[0049] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, further, in this embodiment, the hydrofoil power assist device 20 further includes a left shell cover 700 and a right shell cover 800. The left shell cover 700 is snapped onto the door of the left battery compartment 110 of the base 100 to wrap the first battery pack 200; the right shell cover 800 is snapped onto the door of the right battery compartment 120 of the base 100 to wrap the second battery pack 300. By providing the left shell cover 700 and the right shell cover 800, the battery pack in the battery compartment is further protected to prevent the battery pack from falling.

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the hydrofoil power assist device 20 further includes a built-in receiver 910 , which is installed inside the cavity of the base 100 .

[0051] like Figure 4As shown, in another embodiment, the hydrofoil power assist device 20 further includes an external receiver 920, and the external receiver 920 is located outside the cavity of the base 100. The external receiver 920 is electrically connected to the relevant electronic components inside the base 100 through a signal line 930. By providing the external receiver 920, the external remote control signal can be better received and sent to the relevant electronic components inside the base 100.

[0052] like Figure 8 As shown, specifically, the mast clamp 400 includes a left-side clamp 410 and a right-side clamp 420. The left-side clamp 410 is provided with a plurality of left-side receiving grooves (not shown), each of which is provided with a left-side gasket 430. The right-side clamp 420 is provided with a plurality of right-side receiving grooves 421, each of which is provided with a right-side gasket 440.

[0053] Since the models of masts 32 are different, their external contour shapes will also be different. In the present invention, the left gasket 430 and the right gasket 440 are replaced or adjusted so that the left gasket 430 and the right gasket 440 can better fit the external contour of the mast 32, thereby making the left clip 410 and the right clip 420 in the mast clamp 400 more stably clamped on the rod body of the mast 32.

[0054] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
