[0038] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a tail rudder mechanism 100, which is applied to a kayak and used to change and maintain the direction of the kayak.

[0040] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 5 In the present application, the stern rudder mechanism 100 includes a support base 10, a swing base 20, and a stern rudder 30. The support base 10 is connected to the kayak body; the swing base 20 is swingably connected to the support base 10 and swings horizontally relative to the support base 10. The stern rudder 30 is swingably connected to the swing base 20 and swings vertically. This allows the stern rudder 30 to swing vertically and horizontally relative to the support base 10 via the swing base 20. This facilitates the stern rudder 30 to escape the water surface when swinging upward, preventing the stern rudder 30 from remaining submerged and being impacted by debris in the water. This improves the protective effect of the stern rudder mechanism 100 on the stern rudder 30.

[0041] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 In the present application, the support base 10 serves as the supporting component of the stern rudder mechanism 100, supporting the swing base 20 and the stern rudder 30. The support base 10 is connected to the kayak body; this allows the support base 10 to be fixed to the kayak body, thereby facilitating the connection of the stern rudder mechanism 100 to the kayak body through the support base 10.

[0042] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 4 In the implementation of this application, the swing seat 20 is arranged on the rear side of the support seat 10. The swing seat 20 is swingably connected to the support seat 10 and swings relative to the support seat 10 in the horizontal direction to facilitate adjustment of the position of the swing seat 20 relative to the support seat 10, thereby facilitating adjustment of the horizontal position of the swing seat 20 relative to the support seat 10.

[0043] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3In the embodiment of the present application, the tail rudder 30 is disposed on the side of the swing base 20 facing away from the support base 10. The tail rudder 30 is swingably connected to the swing base 20 and swings in the up-down direction to facilitate adjustment of the position of the tail rudder 30 relative to the swing base 20, thereby facilitating adjustment of the up-down position of the tail rudder 30 relative to the swing base 20. The tail rudder 30 is swung in the up-down and horizontal directions relative to the support base 10 through the swing base 20, thereby facilitating the tail rudder 30 to be released from the water surface when swinging upward, preventing the tail rudder 30 from being constantly submerged in water, and protecting the tail rudder 30 from being impacted by debris in the water, thereby improving the protective effect of the tail rudder mechanism 100 on the tail rudder 30.

[0044] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 4 The swing seat 20 is provided with a receiving groove 20 a, which serves as the internal space of the swing seat 20; the tail rudder 30 is located in the receiving groove 20 a and is hinged to the swing seat 20, so that the tail rudder 30 can swing relative to the swing seat 20 by means of the hinge, thereby facilitating the tail rudder 30 to swing along the axis direction of the connection between the tail rudder 30 and the swing seat 20, so as to realize the tail rudder 30 swinging in the up and down direction relative to the swing seat 20.

[0045] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 The stern rudder mechanism 100 further includes a first traction rope 40, one end of which is connected to the top of the stern rudder 30. The other end of the first traction rope 40 is for the user to tow or retract. The user can use the first traction rope 40 to tow or retract the stern rudder 30, thereby facilitating the stern rudder 30 to swing upward relative to the swing seat 20 under human control. When the user pulls the first traction rope 40, the first traction rope 40 drives the stern rudder 30 to swing upward relative to the swing seat 20, thereby facilitating the stern rudder 30 to escape the water surface during the upward swing, preventing the stern rudder 30 from remaining submerged and avoiding impacts from underwater debris. This improves the protective effect of the stern rudder mechanism 100 on the stern rudder 30. When the user retracts or releases the first traction rope 40, the stern rudder 30 can swing downward relative to the swing seat 20. Alternatively, the other end of the first traction rope 40 is connected to a power member, which drives the rudder 30 to swing vertically relative to the swing seat 20 through the first traction rope 40 under the action of power, so as to realize automatic swing of the rudder 30 relative to the swing seat 20.

[0046] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3The rudder mechanism 100 further includes a first elastic member 50, which is positioned between the rudder 30 and the swing base 20. The first elastic member 50 has two ends connected to the rudder 30 and the swing base 20, respectively, and applies an elastic restoring force to the rudder 30, thereby facilitating the rudder 30 to return relative to the swing base 20 under the elastic action of the first elastic member 50. When the first traction rope 40 is retracted or extended, the resistance of the rudder 30 disappears, and the restoring force of the first elastic member 50 simultaneously drives the rudder 30 to return to its initial state.

[0047] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 The rudder 30 includes a rudder body 31 and a rudder portion 32. The rudder portion 32 is connected to the rudder body 31 and is located on one side of the rudder body 31, thereby facilitating the fixing of the rudder portion 32 to the rudder body 31. Optionally, the rudder body 31 and the rudder portion 32 form an integrally connected structure, thereby ensuring the connection strength between the rudder body 31 and the rudder portion 32 and improving the connection stability between the rudder body 31 and the rudder portion 32. The rudder body 31 is connected to the swing seat 20 and the first elastic member 50. The rudder portion 32 is connected to the swing seat 20 and the first elastic member 50 via the rudder body 31. The rudder portion 32 is exposed outside the swing seat 20. The width of the rudder portion 32 is greater than the width of the rudder body 31. The greater the width of the rudder portion 32, the greater the swing range of the rudder 30.

[0048] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 The swing seat 20 is arranged on one side of the support seat 10 and is hinged to the support seat 10, so that the swing seat 20 can swing relative to the support seat 10 by means of a hinge, thereby facilitating the swing seat 20 to swing along the axial direction of the connection between the swing seat 20 and the support seat 10, so as to realize the swing seat 20 swinging in the horizontal direction relative to the support seat 10.

[0049] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 The swing seat 20 is connected to the support seat 10 through the hinge shaft 11, and the hinge shaft 11 is arranged in the vertical direction so that the swing seat 20 can swing along the axis direction of the hinge shaft 11, thereby realizing the swing seat 20 swinging in the horizontal direction relative to the support seat 10.

[0050] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 3 A connecting ring 111 is provided at the top of the hinge shaft 11, and a through hole 111a is provided at the top of the connecting ring 111. The first traction rope 40 passes through the through hole 111a and extends along the peripheral side wall of the tail rudder 30, so that the inner side wall of the through hole 111a limits the range of movement of the first traction rope 40, thereby preventing the first traction rope 40 from deviating from the tail rudder 30 and ensuring the connection effect between the first traction rope 40 and the tail rudder 30.

[0051] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 4The swing base 20 includes a swing body 21 and a clamping arm 22. The swing body 21 is connected to the support base 10 via a hinge shaft 11, allowing the swing body 21 to swing relative to the support base 10, thereby facilitating the swing base 20 to swing horizontally relative to the support base 10 via the swing body 21. The clamping arm 22 is connected to the swing body 21 and defines a receiving slot 20a. The tail rudder 30 is received in the receiving slot 20a. The clamping arm 22 is hingedly connected to the tail rudder 30, allowing the tail rudder 30 to swing relative to the clamping arm 22, thereby facilitating the tail rudder 30 to swing vertically relative to the swing base 20 via the clamping arm 22.

[0052] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 4 The sidewalls of the swinging body 21 are connected to a first steering rope 23 and a second steering rope 24. The first steering rope 23 and the second steering rope 24 are located at different positions within the swinging body 21, and are arranged on either side of the swinging body 21 for the user to pull or retract. The swinging body 21 swings relative to the support base 10 as the first steering rope 23 and the second steering rope 24 are pulled or retracted, allowing the swinging body 21 to swing manually. The first steering rope 23 and the third steering rope 24 are located on the left and right sides of the swinging body 21, respectively. When the user pulls the first steering rope 23, the user uses the first steering rope 23 to swing the swinging body 21 to the left. When the user retracts or releases the first steering rope 23, the swinging body 21 is centered and reset. When the user pulls the second steering rope 24, the user uses the second steering rope 24 to swing the swinging body 21 to the right. When the user retracts or releases the second steering rope 24, the swinging body 21 is centered and reset. This enables the swing body 21 to swing in the horizontal direction.

[0053] Among them, the first steering rope 23 and the second steering rope 24 are provided with a threading sleeve on their outer shells, which can limit the first steering rope 23 and the second steering rope 24, and the first steering rope 23 and the second steering rope 24 can be retracted and retracted in the threading sleeves, thereby realizing control of the swing body 21.

[0054] Preferably, the threading sleeve is a wire tube with a bending function, and the structural principle can be understood with reference to a bicycle brake line.

[0055] Preferably, the threading sleeve is laid along the surface of the kayak body, thereby reducing the structural complexity of the kayak body.
