Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rubber boat technology, and in particular to a rubber boat with a paddle fixing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Rubber boats are inflatable vessels made of rubber or synthetic materials. They are commonly used for recreation, water sports, rescue, fishing, and scientific research. They are portable, lightweight, easy to store and transport, and suitable for use in lakes, rivers, oceans, and other bodies of water.

[0003] The rubber boat is mainly composed of a hull, a paddle rack, and a paddle. When in use, the rubber hull needs to be inflated through an inflation system. After inflation, the paddle is fixed to the paddle bracket on the outer surface of the hull, and then the rubber boat can be used for movement.

[0004] When using existing inflatable boats, the paddles need to be fixed to the paddle brackets on the outer surface of the boat. However, the existing paddle brackets are fixed to the surface of the paddle. Users of different heights have different arm spans and different arm radii, which makes it difficult to generate power when using the inflatable boat. Furthermore, existing inflatable boats cannot adjust the position of the paddle brackets according to the user's needs, making them inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a rubber boat with a paddle fixing mechanism.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Example

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides an inflatable boat with a paddle fixing mechanism, including a hull 1, two paddles 2 disposed on the outer surface of the hull 1, a support assembly 3 disposed between the paddles 2 and the hull 1, and two locking assemblies 4 disposed on the outer surface of the hull 1. The support assembly 3 includes a fixing plate 301 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the hull 1, a sliding block 302 slidably connected to the outer surface of the fixing plate 301, two fixing blocks 303 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the sliding block 302, a T-shaped rod 309 rotatably connected between the two fixing blocks 303, a plug tube 310 movably connected to the outer surface of the T-shaped rod 309, the paddles 2 being inserted into the inside of the plug tube 310, and locking strips 306 disposed on both sides of the sliding block 302.

[0025] Specifically, extension plates 305 are fixedly connected to both sides of the sliding block 302. Threaded pins 304 are threadedly connected inside the extension plates 305. The bottom end of the threaded pins 304 is movably connected to the upper surface of the snap-fit ​​strip 306. The upper surface of the fixed plate 301 is provided with a groove for the sliding block 302 to slide. The upper surface of the fixed plate 301 is provided with several slots that cooperate with the snap-fit ​​strip 306. Two limiting pins 307 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the snap-fit ​​strip 306. The top ends of the limiting pins 307 pass through the interior of the extension plates 305. Two limiting plates 308 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the sliding block 302. The interior of the fixed plate 301 is provided with limiting grooves for the sliding of the limiting plates 308.

[0026] Furthermore, during use, rotating the two threaded pins 304 raises the locking strip 306, causing it to rise and separate from the slot on the outer surface of the fixing plate 301. Then, the limiting plate 308 causes the sliding block 302 to slide within the limiting groove on the outer surface of the fixing plate 301. After the fixing plate 301 is slid to the appropriate position, rotating the threaded pins 304 in the opposite direction causes the locking strip 306 to move vertically downward under the action of the limiting rod. This causes the locking strip 306 to engage with the slot on the outer surface of the fixing plate 301, thus fixing the sliding block 302. This allows the user to adjust the position of the paddle 2 according to their personal habits. Example

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment. The locking component 4 includes a mounting block 405 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the hull 1. Two rotating blocks 401 are hinged to the top of the mounting block 405. A lifting plate 406 is movably connected inside the mounting block 405. A connecting plate 402 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate 406. A pressing block 407 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 402. A connecting rope 408 is fixedly connected between the pressing block 407 and the rotating blocks 401. Two springs 404 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lifting plate 406 and the interior of the mounting block 405.

[0028] Specifically, the inner side of the rotating block 401 and the upper surface of the mounting block 405 are provided with annular grooves for accommodating the connecting rope 408. A torsion spring is provided at the hinge of the rotating block 401 and the mounting block 405. An inclined surface is provided on the upper surface of the rotating block 401. A lifting block 403 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the lifting plate 406. When the spring 404 is in a free state, the top of the pressing block 407 can protrude from the upper surface of the mounting block 405. The upper surface of the mounting block 405 and the lower surface of the rotating block 401 are both provided with arc-shaped surfaces that cooperate with the paddle 2.

[0029] Furthermore, when the paddle 2 is not in use, the paddle 2 is inserted under the rotating block 401 by passing it through the inclined surface on the upper surface of the rotating block 401. The paddle 2 presses against the pressing block 407, thereby engaging the rotating block 401 with the torsion spring at the hinge point on the outer surface of the mounting block 405. The pressing block 407 drives the connecting rope 408 to pull the rotating block 401, further locking the rotating block 401 and preventing the paddle 2 from falling off. The connecting rope 408 is made of elastic material, so that when the connecting rope 408 descends with the pressing block 407, it can increase the locking force of the rotating block 401 on the outer surface of the paddle 2 through deformation.

[0030] Working principle: When using the inflatable boat, insert the paddle 2 into the insertion tube 310. Then, adjust the sliding block 302 according to the user's own force application habits. During use, rotate and raise the two threaded pins 304, thereby causing the locking strip 306 to rise, separating it from the groove on the outer surface of the fixing plate 301. Then, through the limiting action of the limiting plate 308, the sliding block 302 slides within the limiting groove on the outer surface of the fixing plate 301. After the fixing plate 301 is slid to the appropriate position, rotate the threaded pins 304 in the opposite direction, causing the locking strip 306 to move vertically downwards under the action of the limiting rod. This causes the locking strip 306 to engage with the groove on the outer surface of the fixing plate 301, thus fixing the sliding block 302. This allows the position of the paddle 2 to be adjusted according to the user's personal habits. The paddle 2 is propelled by the rotatable connection between the T-shaped rod 309 and the fixed block 303, and the movable connection between the insertion tube 310 and the T-shaped rod 309. When the paddle 2 is not in use, it is inserted under the rotating block 401 by passing it through the inclined surface on the upper surface of the rotating block 401. The paddle 2 presses against the pressing block 407, thereby engaging the rotating block 401 with the torsion spring at the hinge point on the outer surface of the mounting block 405. The pressing block 407 drives the connecting rope 408 to pull the rotating block 401, further locking the rotating block 401 and preventing the paddle 2 from falling off. When the paddle 2 is needed, the lifting block 403 is raised, which in turn causes the lifting plate 406 to lift the pressing block 407, loosening the connecting rope 408 and allowing the paddle 2 to be pulled up, thus unlocking the paddle 2 and finally enabling the use of the inflatable boat.
