Detailed implementation manners

[0038] The following will further elaborate on this application with reference to the attached Figures 1-3 drawings.

[0039] The embodiment of this application discloses a single-person water propeller.

[0040] Referring to Figure 1 , a single-person water propeller includes a hull 1 and a baffle plate 2. The hull 1 includes a bow 11 on one side and a stern 12 on the other side, and a power assembly 3 is installed on the hull 1. The baffle plate 2 surrounds the bow 11, extends away from the hull 1, and inclines towards the middle of the hull 1. When the power assembly 3 drives the hull 1 to move rapidly in the water, the baffle plate 2 blocks the water splashes, thereby reducing the water flow impact on the operator on the hull 1, reducing the interference to the operator on the hull 1, and facilitating the operator to complete the task smoothly.

[0041] The baffle plate 2 in this embodiment is made of a transparent material, such as polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate, and silica gel glass. In this embodiment, the baffle plate 2 is made of silica gel glass, which has high elasticity and impact resistance and can bend or withstand large impact stresses.

[0042] Mounting seats 13 are fixedly connected to the periphery of the hull 1. Mounting grooves 14 are provided on the mounting seats 13. The baffle plate 2 is inserted into the mounting grooves 14. By passing bolts through the mounting seats 13 and tightening the bolts to press against the baffle plate 2 located in the mounting grooves 14, the installation of the baffle plate 2 is completed. At the same time, loosening the bolts can also remove the baffle plate 2 from the mounting grooves 14 to complete the disassembly of the baffle plate 2. The cooperation of the mounting seats 13 and the mounting grooves 14 facilitates the installation and disassembly of the baffle plate 2.

[0043] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3, one side of the hull 1 floating on the water surface is symmetrically arranged with the side located in the water. The symmetrically arranged hull 1 facilitates quickly putting the hull 1 into the water. At the same time, when the hull 1 is flipped, the operator can also easily return to the hull 1.

[0044] The hull 1 in this embodiment is made of carbon fiber composite material. Carbon fiber composite materials have high strength, light weight, excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance. Therefore, the hull 1 has high durability. The hull 1 can withstand long-term use and wear and still maintain good performance.

[0045] There are grooves 15 and bumps 16 on the ship's edge of the hull 1. A number of warning lights 4 are installed on the bumps 16 on the edge of the hull 1. In this embodiment, 8 warning lights 4 are provided. In other embodiments, according to the size of the hull 1 and the setting of the bumps 16 on the edge of the cabin, the warning lights 4 can be set to 4, 6, 10, etc. The warning lights 4 on both sides of the hull 1 have different colors, which is convenient to judge the orientation of the hull 1 through the colors of the warning lights 4.

[0046] Moving handles 17 are fixedly connected to the bow 11 and the stern 12 respectively. The setting of the moving handles 17 facilitates quickly moving the hull 1, so that the moving handles 17 at the bow 11 and the stern 12 can directly lift the moving handles 17 during the use of the hull 1 to quickly move the hull 1; at the same time, when the hull 1 needs to be moved away from the water surface, control the bow 11 to directly approach the shore, and the hull 1 can be directly pulled onto the shore by using the moving handle 17 on the bow 11.

[0047] A number of fixed handrails 18 are also fixedly connected to the ship's edge of the hull 1. The fixed handrails 18 are located in the grooves 15 on the edge of the hull 1. The fixed handrails 18 in the grooves 15 on the edge of the hull 1 facilitate the operators lying on the hull 1 to stably hold on to the hull 1.

[0048] A lighting device 5 is fixedly connected to the bow 11 facing the forward direction. The lighting device 5 is two high-brightness searchlights. The setting of the lighting device 5 facilitates smoothly completing tasks at night or when the light is insufficient.

[0049] The power assembly 3 includes a control console 31, a battery 32 and a positive displacement pump 33. The control console 31 is installed on the bow 11, and a control lever 34 is arranged on the control console 31. The battery 32 is installed at the stern 12 and is electrically connected to the control console 31. The positive displacement pumps 33 are installed on both sides of the stern 12 and are respectively electrically connected to the battery 32 and the control console 31. The warning lights 4 are connected to the control console 31, and the control console 31 is used to control the extinguishing and lighting of the warning lights 4, so as to facilitate other people to locate the position of the hull 1 during rescue.

[0050] The battery 32 provides power for the positive-displacement pump 33 and the console 31. The control lever on the console 31 controls the positive-displacement pump 33 to drive the hull 1 to move. By driving the positive-displacement pumps 33 on both sides of the stern to generate different powers, the movement direction of the driving hull 1 is controlled.

[0051] The positive-displacement pump 33 has good self-priming ability and high volumetric efficiency. Therefore, it can be directly placed in the cabin of underwater vehicles such as submarines. The positive-displacement pump 33 not only has a simple structure, but also compared with the propeller-type and axial-flow pump-type water jets placed outside the cabin, it reduces the complex transmission mechanism, and the noise of the underwater vehicle is also greatly reduced. And the suction port of this positive-displacement pump 33 is arranged at the front end of the hull 1. The fluid in front of the robot's movement that should have been displaced is sucked in by the hydraulic pump, pressurized, and then ejected through the nozzle, reducing the resistance of the vehicle and being beneficial to further improving the efficiency.

[0052] A mounting platform 6 is also fixedly connected to the console 31. The mounting platform 6 can mount small arms, rescue equipment, auxiliary communication equipment, and auxiliary navigation systems, etc. When mounting small arms, a lapping groove is provided in the middle of the blocking plate 2, which is convenient for the small arms to be stuck in the lapping groove, thereby facilitating the use of the small arms.

[0053] Crawling blocks 7 are arranged on both sides of the console 31. The upper surface of the crawling blocks 7 is convex in an arc shape. When the operator crawls on the hull 1, the arc-shaped convex crawling blocks 7 are convenient for supporting the armpits.

[0054] A stabilizing hole 19 is provided on the side of the crawling block 7 close to the bow 11. The setting of the stabilizing hole 19 can not only help drain the accumulated water and maintain the buoyancy of the raft, but also reduce the weight of the inflatable raft, making it easier to carry and operate.

[0055] In this embodiment, two stabilizing holes 19 are provided, and the two stabilizing holes 19 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the console 31. The symmetrically arranged stabilizing holes 19 can enhance the structural stability of the inflatable raft, making the hull 1 more stable during the forward movement.

[0056] A sealed cabin 8 is provided at the stern 12, and the battery 32 is installed in the sealed cabin 8. A sealing cover 81 is fixedly connected to the opening of the sealed cabin 8 by bolts. By installing the battery 32 in the sealed cabin 8 and then fixing the sealing cover 81 with bolts, the cooperation of the sealed cabin 8 and the sealing cover 81 provides good water isolation ability for the battery 32.

[0057] The implementation principle of a single-person water surface thruster in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: Move the hull 1 by using the moving handle 17, place the hull 1 in the water, and then the operator lies prone on the hull 1 and tightly holds the fixed handrail 18. Control the volume pump 33 to drive the hull 1 to move in the water by controlling the lever 34. The setting of the baffle 2 prevents the water splashes from being blocked when the hull 1 moves rapidly, reducing the impact of the water splashes on the operator's head, and thus reducing the impact of the water flow on the operator on the hull 1. At the same time, the inclined baffle 2 can reduce the impact of the water splashes on the baffle 2 and reduce the interference of the water splashes on the operator on the hull 1, facilitating the operator to complete the task smoothly.

[0058] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereby. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application shall be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
