[0006] Through the scheme, the innovative sealing structure adopts a multilayer composite sealing system, the three-element ethylene-propylene rubber sealing gasket is arranged at the combination part of the fixed pipe and the ship body, and at least IP68-level waterproof is realized by cooperating with the gas-liquid two-phase sealing assembly inside the fixed pipe.

[0008] Optionally, the waterproof step is fixedly arranged on the propeller, and the waterproof step is in abutment with the waterproof oil seal.
[0009] The waterproof oil seal and the double contact interfaces formed by the inner wall of the fixed pipe and the outer wall of the propeller constitute a bidirectional radial sealing system, which can withstand more axial water pressure impact, realize dynamic sealing with an axial displacement of ±0.8mm at a propeller speed of 3000rpm, and reduce the leakage rate by more than 90% compared with a single-sided sealing structure; the optional waterproof step and the waterproof oil seal form a stepped multi-stage sealing, and when a 0.15mm gap is generated on the main sealing surface due to wear, the waterproof step can automatically compensate to form a second sealing barrier.
[0010] Optionally, a fixed ring is arranged on the fixed pipe, and a sealing ring is arranged on one side of the fixed ring close to the ship body, and an air cavity is formed between the sealing ring and the sealing pad.

[0033] In use, the fixing groove 14 is provided with a fixing pipe 21, and a sealing gasket 3 is arranged between the fixing pipe 21 and the fixing groove 14. The sealing gasket 3 includes but is not limited to a commonly used ethylene ring and a ternary ethylene rubber on the market. The sealing gasket 3 is relatively soft, fills the gap between the fixing groove 14 and the fixing pipe 21, and reduces the probability of water entering the fixing pipe 21 and the fixing groove 14 when the ship body 1 is launched. The fixing ring 22 is integrally formed with the fixing pipe 21, and the fixing ring 22 and the ship body 1 abut each other. A sealing ring 4 is arranged, and the sealing ring 4 is provided with a clearance hole corresponding to the position of the locking bolt 23. The sealing ring 4, the fixing ring 22 and the ship body 1 form an air cavity. The locking bolt 23 is matched with the threaded blind hole, and the locking bolt 23 is arranged in the clearance hole of the sealing ring 4. The probability of water entering the fixing hole due to threaded connection is reduced. When the ship body 1 is launched, the sealing ring 4, the sealing gasket 3, the fixing ring 22 and the ship body 1 form an air cavity, the overall waterproof level is improved, and the probability of water entering the motor 13 is reduced.
[0034] In use, the fixing ring 22 is fixed by the locking bolt 23 so that it can be disassembled. When the fixing ring 22 and the fixing pipe 21 are obviously worn and depreciated after long-term use, the standby fixing ring 22 can be taken out. The locking bolt 23 is rotated out of the original fixing ring 22 and is disassembled. Then the locking bolt 23 is rotated into the standby fixing ring 22 and is matched with the threaded blind hole of the ship body 1, so that the replacement of the fixing ring 22 is completed.
[0035] As shown in Figures 1-4 The fixing pipe 21 is provided with a rotating shaft 71, and the rotating shaft 71 is coaxial with the fixing pipe 21. A bearing placing groove is arranged in the fixing pipe 21 and is coaxial with the fixing pipe 21. A coaxial ball bearing 51 is arranged in the bearing placing groove, and the inside of the ball bearing 51 is matched with the rotating shaft 71. The fixing pipe 21 is provided with an oil seal groove corresponding to the two sides of the bearing placing groove. The oil seal groove is provided with a waterproof oil seal 61, and the inner wall of the waterproof oil seal 61 is matched with the rotating shaft 71. The rotating shaft 71 is provided with a waterproof step 62, and the waterproof step 62 is coaxial with the rotating shaft 71. The radius of the waterproof step 62 is the same as that of the waterproof oil seal 61. The waterproof step 62 is placed away from the motor 13, and the side of the waterproof step 62 close to the motor 13 is close to the waterproof oil seal 61.
[0036] In use, the rotating shaft 71 is matched with the inner wall of the ball bearing 51. The two waterproof oil seals 61 arranged in the oil seal groove are matched with the rotating shaft 71, and the waterproof step 62 is arranged outside the waterproof oil seal 61, so that the first waterproof effect is achieved. When rotating, the water flow is rotated synchronously, the probability of water entering the inside of the machine body is reduced, and the waterproof effect of the rotating shaft 71 is achieved.
[0037] As shown in Figures 1-4As shown, the propeller 7 includes a rotating shaft 71 and blades 72, the rotating shaft 71 is fixed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced blades 72 at one end away from the motor 13, and the example in the figure is four, the four blades 72 are circumferentially uniformly spaced, each blade 72 has a fixed end close to the rotating shaft 71, and a free end away from the rotating shaft 71, and the trailing edge of any blade 72 is chamfered to form a chamfered slope.
[0038] In use, the upper surface of the trailing edge of each blade 72 has an inclination angle, and the purpose of providing the chamfered slope is to make the water flow contact the blade 72 relatively gentle, reduce the generation of sound; and unlike the right-angled trailing edge, the fishing line and seaweed have no obvious force point on the trailing edge of the blade 72; reduce the probability of entanglement of fishing line and seaweed on the blade 72 of the propeller 7.
[0039] As shown, Figures 1-4 The hull 1 is integrally formed with a stern 8 corresponding to one side of the blade 72, the stern 8 is provided with an electric boat paddle 81 for controlling the direction of the hull 1, and the axis of the electric boat paddle 81 is perpendicular to the rotating shaft 71.
[0040] As a preferred, the electric boat paddle 81 is arranged on one side of the stern 8, the number of electric boat paddles 81 can be 1, arranged on one side of the propeller 7, which can also be 2, distributed on both sides of the stern 8.
[0041] In use, the electric boat paddle 81 is located on the side of the propeller 7, reducing the situation that the fishing line and seaweed enter the propeller 7 with the water flow when the propeller 7 rotates to discharge water, causing the blade 72 to be entangled.
[0042] As shown, Figures 1-4 The motor 13 output shaft and the rotating shaft 71 are provided with a plurality of stages of strong magnetic steel 9, which are respectively fixed on the sides of the motor 13 output shaft and the rotating shaft 71 close to each other, and are arranged in stages.
[0043] As a preferred, the strong magnetic steel 9 is distributed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the motor 13 output shaft and the rotating shaft 71, and it can be understood that the number of strong magnetic steel 9 is not limited, which can be one or more than one.
[0044] In use, the strong magnetic steel 9 between the motor 13 output shaft and the rotating shaft 71 is magnetically attracted to each other, when the motor 13 output shaft rotates, the strong magnetic steel 9 arranged on the motor 13 output shaft rotates, and then drives the corresponding strong magnetic steel 9 on the rotating shaft 71 to rotate, realizes the power output of the motor 13, uses the strong magnetic steel 9 for power transmission, when the blade 72 of the propeller 7 is entangled by the fishing line and seaweed and cannot rotate, the motor 13 output shaft cannot rotate, causing the motor 13 to be damaged, and when the blade 72 cannot rotate, the rotating shaft 71 is synchronous and stationary, and the probability of water entering is reduced by using the waterproof oil seal 61.
[0045] In summary, by the combination design of the fixed tube 21 in the fixed groove 14 and the sealing gasket 3, the gap between the fixed tube 21 and the fixed groove 14 is effectively filled, and the possibility of water penetration when the ship body 1 is launched is reduced. At the same time, the sealing ring 4 design between the fixed ring 22 and the ship body 1, and the cooperation of the locking bolt 23 and the threaded blind hole, further enhances the waterproof effect, forms an air cavity, effectively improves the overall waterproof level, and reduces the risk of damage to the motor 13 due to water ingress.
[0046] The rotating shaft 71 is matched with the fixed tube 21 through the ball bearing 51, and the waterproof oil seal 61 is arranged in the oil seal groove, which ensures the waterproof effect of the rotating shaft 71 during rotation, and guarantees the smooth operation of the rotating shaft 71. This design effectively prevents water erosion of the rotating shaft 71, improves the transmission efficiency and service life.
[0047] The power system uses non-contact power transmission, and the power transmission is realized through the strong magnetic steel 9 between the output shaft of the motor 13 and the rotating shaft 71, which realizes the non-contact connection mode. This design not only improves the efficiency of power transmission, but also protects the motor 13 from damage when the blade 72 is wound and cannot rotate, and enhances the reliability and safety of the entire transmission structure.
[0048] The electric boat paddle 81 arranged at the stern 8 not only helps to control the direction of the ship body 1, but also reduces the risk of the fish line and the water grass entering the propeller 7 with the water flow and winding the blade 72, further improving the controllability and safety of the ship body 1
[0049] The design of the blade 72 with the edge chamfered inclined surface not only reduces the noise generated when the water flow contacts the blade 72, but also reduces the probability of the fish line and the seaweed winding on the blade 72, improving the reliability and safety of the propeller 7.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments can be modified without departing from the scope and spirit of the present application.
