Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kayaks, in particular to a foot pedal device and a kayak. Background Art

[0002] At present, the foot-operated kayak propeller on the market mainly provides power through the foot pedal to rotate the large gear, and then drives the small gear vertically meshed with the large gear below to rotate. The small gear drives the hard shaft to rotate, and the hard shaft drives the paddle to rotate. The rotation of the paddle pushes the kayak forward. This kind of kayak propeller mainly includes a turbine, which is connected to one end of the hard shaft through a gear, and the other end of the hard shaft is connected to the propeller. And a gear is also arranged at the bending part of the connection end of the hard shaft and the propeller to transmit the power provided by the foot pedal to the propeller.

[0003] Because the heights and leg lengths of users are different, the distance between the seat and the pedal needs to be adjusted when using the foot pedal to make it more convenient for users. However, the current foot pedal devices cannot be adjusted, so they cannot be adapted to different user groups. Therefore, improvement is needed. Summary of the Utility Model
