Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to flap adjustment technology, specifically to a flap adjustment device with a self-locking structure for hydrofoil boats. Background Technology

[0002] Water transportation refers to the use of ships, floating facilities, and other watercraft to transport people, goods, or conduct other related activities in oceans, rivers, lakes, and other bodies of water. This mode of transportation has occupied an important place in human history. With the development of human civilization, water transportation has gradually evolved from primitive canoes and rafts to today's diverse means of transportation such as ships, yachts, and seaplanes.

[0003] The characteristics of water transportation include:

[0004] Strong transport capacity: Large ships can carry a large amount of cargo or passengers, making them suitable for long-distance and large-volume transportation.

[0005] Low cost: Compared with land transportation, water transportation has relatively low transportation costs, especially when transporting bulk goods.

[0006] Environmental protection: Water transportation has relatively low carbon emissions and a smaller impact on the environment.

[0007] Greatly affected by geographical conditions: Water transportation routes are limited by geographical conditions such as water area, water depth, and channel width.

[0008] Safety: Although water transportation is relatively safe, there are still certain risks in case of severe weather, shipwrecks, etc.

[0009] Water transport plays a vital role in international trade, tourism, fishing, and water sports. For example, most goods in international trade are transported by sea because it is inexpensive and can carry large quantities of cargo. Meanwhile, water tourism has become a popular mode of travel, allowing people to cruise on rivers, lakes, and seas and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way.

[0010] However, with the intensification of environmental problems such as global warming and rising sea levels, water transportation is facing increasing challenges. For example, issues such as changes in waterways and ship emissions require attention and solutions. Therefore, the future development of water transportation needs to place greater emphasis on environmental protection and sustainability, and promote technological innovation and industrial upgrading.

[0011] In summary, water transportation, as an ancient yet modern mode of transport, plays a vital role in the development of human society. With continuous technological advancements and environmental changes, water transportation also needs constant adaptation and innovation to meet the needs of human society.

[0012] When using existing hydrofoil boat flap adjustment devices with self-locking structures, the flaps are often subjected to sudden changes in disturbance forces during the continuous adjustment of the angle. For example, the continuous impact of waves, the change of center of gravity caused by the movement of people on board, the acceleration, deceleration and elevation of the ship, etc., may cause the force on the flaps to suddenly increase, causing the flap angle to deviate from the control target value, resulting in unstable control of the ship's flight attitude. Utility Model Content

[0013] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flap adjustment device with a self-locking structure for hydrofoils, in order to solve the problem that in the prior art, flaps are often subjected to sudden changes in disturbance forces during the continuous adjustment of their angles, such as the continuous impact of waves, changes in the center of gravity caused by the movement of people on board, and the acceleration, deceleration, and elevation of the ship. These can all cause the flaps to suddenly increase in force, causing the flap angle to deviate from the control target value, resulting in unstable control of the ship's flight attitude.

[0014] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a flap adjustment device for hydrofoils with a self-locking structure, comprising: a support assembly, a power assembly at the top of the support assembly, a drive assembly on one side of the support assembly, the drive assembly and the power assembly being connected by a connecting rod, a main wing plate at the bottom of the support assembly, and a flap assembly on one side of the main wing plate.

[0015] Furthermore, the support assembly includes:

[0016] The support column provides support for the entire device.

[0017] Fasteners are fixedly installed on the top of the support column;

[0018] A fixing plate, which is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing component;

[0019] The fixing groove is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing component on the side away from the fixing plate.

[0020] Furthermore, the power assembly includes:

[0021] The translational force component is installed inside the fixed plate;

[0022] A trapezoidal lead screw is installed at the output end of a translational force component;

[0023] A retaining ring is fixedly installed at the other end of the trapezoidal lead screw and is connected to the connecting rod.

[0024] Furthermore, the driving component includes:

[0025] Connecting ring one, which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting rod;

[0029] Two drive plates are rotatably connected to the connecting ring.

[0030] Two flaps are fixedly mounted on one side of the drive plate and are rotatably connected to the main wing plate.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the flap adjustment device with self-locking structure provided by this utility model can keep the flap in the target position when subjected to impact force without deviation, and control the flap angle more accurately, so as to make the flight attitude more stable.

Detailed Implementation

[0038] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] Example 1:

[0040] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 3 A hydrofoil boat flap adjustment device with a self-locking structure includes: a support assembly 2, a power assembly 1 on the top of the support assembly 2, a drive assembly 4 on one side of the support assembly 2, the drive assembly 4 and the power assembly 1 being connected by a connecting rod 3, a main wing plate 5 on the bottom of the support assembly 2, and a flap assembly 6 on one side of the main wing plate 5.

[0041] In a specific implementation, the support assembly 2 serves as the main support structure of the entire adjustment device and is made of high-strength, lightweight material to ensure sufficient strength and durability while reducing weight. The support assembly 2 can be hollow, and the flap assembly 6 can be installed inside the support assembly 2.

[0042] Column component 2 includes:

[0043] Support column 24 provides support for the entire device;

[0044] Fastener 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the support column 24;

[0045] The fixing plate 22 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing member 21;

[0046] The fixing groove 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing member 21 on the side away from the fixing plate 22.

[0047] In a specific implementation, the fixing member 21, the fixing plate 22 and the fixing groove 23 can be replaced as a single part machined by CNC, which can realize the functions of the above three parts.

[0048] Power component 1 includes:

[0049] The translational force component 11 is installed inside the fixed plate 22;

[0050] A trapezoidal lead screw 12 is installed at the output end of the translational force component 11;

[0051] The retaining ring 13 is fixedly installed at the other end of the trapezoidal lead screw 12 and is connected to the connecting rod 3.

[0052] In a specific implementation, the translational force component 11 includes, but is not limited to, an electric telescopic rod, which is electrically connected to an external power source and controlled by an external PLC programming program. The trapezoidal lead screw 12 can be replaced with a thread with a helix angle less than or equal to the self-locking angle. Similarly, when the trapezoidal lead screw 12 extends or retracts, the translational force component 11 rotates around the axis at the connection between the translational force component 11 and the fixed plate 22.

[0053] Driver component 4 includes:

[0054] Connecting ring 42 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of connecting rod 3;

[0055] Drive rod 41, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of connecting ring 42;

[0056] Connecting ring 2 43 is fixedly installed at the bottom of drive rod 41.

[0057] The specific implementation is as follows: Connecting ring 42: Made of high-strength, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant alloy material, it is annular in shape, and its inner diameter matches the inner wall of connecting rod 3 to ensure that the two can rotate tightly and smoothly; Drive rod 41: Also made of high-strength alloy material, it is designed as a cylinder, and its length is determined according to actual needs. The top of drive rod 41 and the bottom of connecting ring 42 are fixed together by welding, bolting, or other strong connection methods to ensure that the two will not separate under force; Connecting ring 43: The material selection is the same as connecting ring 42, and the shape is also annular, but the inner and outer diameters may be adjusted according to different connected objects; Connecting ring 43 is fixedly installed at the bottom of drive rod 41, and the connection method can also be welding, bolting, etc.

[0058] Flange assembly 6 includes:

[0059] Two drive plates 62 are rotatably connected to the connecting ring 43;

[0060] Two flaps 61 are fixedly mounted on one side of the drive plate 62 and are rotatably connected to the main wing plate 5.

[0061] Working principle: During use, when the trapezoidal lead screw 12 retracts, the fixed ring 13 moves to the left in the diagram, pulling the connecting rod 3 to rotate counterclockwise around the axis of the fixed groove 23. Simultaneously, it pulls the connecting ring 42 at the top of the drive rod 41 to rotate counterclockwise along the support assembly 2, causing the drive rod 41 to move upwards. The connecting ring 43 then moves the drive plate 62 upwards, resulting in the flap 61 rotating counterclockwise along the main wing plate 5. Conversely, when the trapezoidal lead screw 12 extends, the fixed ring 13 moves to the right in the diagram, pulling the connecting rod 3 to rotate clockwise along the support assembly 2. Simultaneously, it pushes the connecting ring 42 at the top of the drive rod 41 to rotate clockwise along the support assembly 2, causing the drive rod 41 to move downwards. The connecting ring 43 then moves the drive plate 62 downwards, resulting in the flap 61 rotating clockwise along the main wing plate 5. This transforms the retraction and extension of the trapezoidal lead screw 12 into the counterclockwise and clockwise movement of the flap 61. During the transmission process, when the trapezoidal lead screw 12 is subjected to the impact force from the flap 61, the trapezoidal lead screw 12 has a self-locking characteristic, which can keep the trapezoidal lead screw 12 at a fixed length and prevent the length from shifting due to the impact force, thereby keeping the angle of the flap 61 at the target value.

[0062] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
