Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hovercraft technology, specifically relating to a new type of rubber apron for hovercraft. Background Technology

[0002] A hovercraft is a high-speed vessel that utilizes the surface effect principle, relying on air at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure to form an air cushion between the hull and the water surface, allowing the hull to detach from the water and sail. For example, a hovercraft quick-installation apron device with patent publication number CN106043271A involves first movably mounting the inner surface of the airbag apron onto the vertical Velcro on the surface of the movable blocks and the horizontal Velcro between the movable blocks. This allows for quick disassembly and installation, effectively preventing the airbag apron from slipping after installation and ensuring the stability of the airbag apron mounted on the bottom of the hull. Then, the Velcro mounting edge at the upper edge of the airbag apron is secured to the threaded groove at the edge of the upper surface of the hull with bolts. This allows for quick installation and disassembly of the mounting edge while ensuring its firmness after installation.

[0003] The airbags are secured using Velcro, but the adhesive strength of the Velcro decreases after repeated use, which can reduce the stability of the airbag installation. At the same time, the airbags are exposed, which not only reduces the aesthetics of the hovercraft but also accelerates the aging of the airbags. Utility Model Content
