Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water products, and in particular to a multi-purpose, high-hardness kayak. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional kayaks have a relatively limited function, allowing users to exercise while seated. In addition, the hull of traditional kayaks is generally made of PVC or mesh fabric, which limits the inflation pressure due to material and manufacturing process. They cannot be inflated to higher pressure (only about 1-3 PSI), and therefore cannot have the better rigidity and flexibility of rigid kayaks.

[0003] In view of the above problems, it is necessary to study a multi-purpose kayak to overcome at least one of the problems of traditional kayaks. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-purpose kayak to overcome at least one problem with traditional kayaks.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is:

[0006] A multi-purpose kayak includes an inflatable hull and a support pad, wherein a receiving portion is formed in the middle of the inflatable hull, and the support pad is fitted into the receiving portion and is lower than the upper surface of the inflatable hull.

[0007] The inflatable boat hull includes a hollow hull body and a bottom cover. The hull body has a through-hole in the middle, and the bottom cover is connected to the hull body and covers the lower opening of the through-hole. The accommodating part is formed between the hull body and the bottom cover.

[0008] The main body of the hull is made of space fabric, and multiple hull cables are installed inside the main body of the hull.

[0009] The material of the bottom cover is reinforced rubber sheet.

[0010] A drain valve is fitted inside the receiving part.

[0011] The support pad comprises at least two spliced ​​rigid support plates.

[0012] A groove is formed around the bottom periphery of the receiving part, and the periphery of the support pad fits into the groove.

[0013] The support pad is an inflatable pad.

[0014] The inflatable pad is made of space fabric, and the inside of the inflatable pad has multiple pad body pull lines.

[0015] The support pad is fixedly connected to the inflatable boat hull.

[0016] With the above solution, when using the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model, the user can sit on the support pad to operate the paddle to drive the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model to move, that is, the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model can be used as a traditional kayak; the user can also stand on the support pad to operate the paddle to drive the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model to move, that is, the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model can be used as a paddleboard; wherein, the support pad has high strength during use to ensure that the user stands stably on the support pad.

[0017] Furthermore, the inflatable hull of this utility model's multi-purpose kayak is made of spatial fabric, which has good pressure resistance, thus ensuring that the hull can withstand high inflation pressure (up to 12 PSI or more). This results in high strength and rigidity of the hull when fully inflated, making the user experience of this utility model's multi-purpose kayak close to that of a rigid kayak.

[0031] Support pad 2, rigid support plate 21, inflatable pad 20, pad body pull line 201,

[0032] Drain valve 3,

[0033] Connecting piece 4,

[0034] Seat 5,

[0035] Handle 6,

[0036] Booth 7,

[0037] Phone stand 8. Detailed Implementation

[0038] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, this utility model discloses a multi-purpose kayak, which includes an inflatable hull 1 and a support pad 2. The inflatable hull 1 forms a receiving portion 10 in the middle, and the support pad 2 is fitted into the receiving portion 10 and is lower than the upper surface of the inflatable hull 1.

[0039] In use, the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model allows users to sit on the support pad 2 and operate the paddles to move the kayak, meaning it can be used as a traditional kayak. Alternatively, users can stand on the support pad 2 and operate the paddles to move the kayak, meaning it can be used as a paddleboard. The support pad 2 is strong enough to ensure the user can stand stably on it. A detachable seat 5 can be fitted on the support pad 2 for the user to lie down. The inflatable kayak body 1 can be fitted with handles 6 for the user to apply force to move the kayak. The inflatable kayak body 1 can also be fitted with a bracket 7 for holding the paddles and a mobile phone holder 8 for the user to place their mobile phone for taking pictures.

[0040] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, the following detailed description is provided through specific embodiments.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] Cooperate Figures 1 to 5As shown, in Embodiment 1 of this utility model, the inflatable boat hull 1 includes a hollow boat body 11 and a bottom cover 12. The boat body 11 has a through opening 111 in the middle. The bottom cover 12 is connected to the boat body 11 and covers the lower opening of the through opening 111. The receiving part 10 is formed between the boat body 11 and the bottom cover 12.

[0043] In the first embodiment of this utility model, the material of the hull body 11 is space fabric, and the interior of the hull body 11 is provided with multiple hull tension lines 112. The space fabric has good pressure bearing capacity, thereby ensuring that the hull body 11 can withstand high inflation pressure (inflation pressure can reach more than 12 PSI), which makes the hull body 11 strong and rigid when fully inflated, so that the user experience of the multi-purpose kayak of this utility model is close to that of a rigid kayak. The hull tension lines 112 enable the hull body 11 to maintain the required shape when fully inflated.

[0044] In the first embodiment of this utility model, the material of the bottom cover 12 is reinforced rubber cloth, which makes the bottom cover 12 strong and able to stably support the support pad 2.

[0045] In the first embodiment of this utility model, a drain valve 3 is provided in the receiving part 10 of the inflatable boat hull 1. The drain valve 3 can facilitate the drainage of water accumulated in the receiving part 10. Specifically, the drain valve 3 can be set on the bottom cover plate 12 of the boat.

[0046] In the first embodiment of this utility model, the support pad 2 includes at least two spliced ​​rigid support plates 21; and the bottom periphery of the receiving part 10 can form a groove 101, and the periphery of the support pad 2 is fitted into the groove 101 to prevent the support pad 2 from shifting or falling out; the rigid support plate 21 can be made of injection molded plate or blow molded plate.

[0047] Example 2:

[0048] Cooperate Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 of this utility model lies in the support pad 2. Specifically, in Embodiment 2 of this utility model, the support pad 2 is an inflatable pad 20. The material of the inflatable pad 20 is a spatial fabric, which makes the strength and hardness of the inflatable pad high when it is fully inflated to ensure support for the user. The inflatable pad 20 has multiple pad body pull lines 201 inside, so that the inflatable pad 20 maintains the required shape when fully inflated.

[0049] Example 3:

[0050] Cooperate Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, in Embodiment 3 of this utility model, the inflatable boat hull 1 includes a hollow hull body 11 and a bottom cover 12. The receiving part 10 is formed in the middle of the hull body 11. The receiving part 10 can be arranged vertically (that is, the opening in the middle of the hull body 11 is the receiving part 10). The support pad 2 is fitted into the receiving part 10 and is fixedly connected to the hull body 11 of the inflatable boat hull 1.

[0051] In the third embodiment of this utility model, the support pad 2 is an inflatable pad 20. The material of the inflatable pad 20 is a spatial fabric, which makes the strength and hardness of the inflatable pad high when it is fully inflated to ensure support for the user. The inflatable pad 20 has multiple pad body pull lines 201 inside, so that the inflatable pad 20 maintains the required shape when it is fully inflated.

[0052] In the third embodiment of this utility model, the periphery of the inflatable pad 20 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the receiving part 10; the bottom of the inflatable pad 20 is connected to the main body 11 of the inflatable boat hull 1 through the connecting piece 4 to improve the connection stability.

[0053] The above embodiments and figures are not intended to limit the product form and style of this utility model. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art should be considered as not departing from the patent scope of this utility model.
