[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, provides a more detailed explanation of this utility model. The specific embodiments described are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit it.
[0030] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figures 1 to 10 This embodiment describes a portable vehicle-mounted folding boat, comprising a bow 1, a hull 2, and a stern 3. The bow 1, stern 3, hull 2, and hull 2 are all provided with mounting surfaces. The bow and stern ends of the hull 2 are connected to the bow 1 and stern 3, respectively. A left buoy 4 and a right buoy 5 are respectively installed on both sides of the stern 3. A left drag-reducing plate 6 and a right drag-reducing plate 7 are respectively installed on both sides of the hull 2. Multiple stern buoys 10 are also installed at the stern of the stern 3.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, there are two stern buoys 10 symmetrically arranged at the stern of the stern 3. The surface of the stern buoy 10 is provided with anti-slip strips, and the two sides of the stern buoy 10 are inclined in the horizontal direction, with the inclination gradually decreasing from the head to the tail.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the bow and stern of the stern 3 are provided with a plurality of handle slots 14; the hull 2 and the stern 3 have an open-type storage structure, the hull 2 can be placed inside the stern 3, and the bow 1 can be placed inside the hull 2.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the outer surfaces of the left buoy 4 and the right buoy 5 are streamlined, and the bottom surfaces of the left buoy 4 and the right buoy 5 are streamlined; the outer surfaces of the left drag-reducing plate 6 and the right drag-reducing plate 7 are streamlined; the left drag-reducing plate 6 and the right drag-reducing plate 7 are extensions of the left buoy 4 and the right buoy 5, respectively, and are used for water blocking and drag reduction.
[0034] In this embodiment, both the hull 2 and the stern 3 have an open and retractable structure, so the hull 2 can be placed inside the stern 3 and the bow 1 can be placed inside the hull 2. At the same time, the bow and stern ends of the stern 3 are respectively provided with multiple handle slots 14, which facilitate manual loading and unloading onto the shore or into the trunk of the tour bus.
[0035] In this embodiment, there are two stern buoys 10 symmetrically arranged at the stern of the stern 3. The two sides of the stern buoys 10 are inclined in the horizontal direction, and the inclination gradually decreases from the bow to the stern. The stern buoys 10 can increase the buoyancy of the folding boat and maintain its balance. At the same time, an engine 18 can be installed at the stern of the folding boat to increase the maneuverability of the hull. When the engine 18 is installed, the stern buoys 10 can maintain the balance of the hull.
[0036] In this embodiment, the outer sides and bottom surfaces of the left buoy 4 and the right buoy 5 are streamlined; the outer surfaces of the left drag-reducing plate 6 and the right drag-reducing plate 7 are streamlined, which can increase the buoyancy of the folding boat and save effort for tourists when rowing with oars, while also increasing speed.
[0037] Specific Implementation Method Two: Combining Figures 1 to 10 In this embodiment, a storage compartment 8 is provided inside the bow 1. A door is installed on the upper hinge of the storage compartment 8. The door is flush with the deck surface of the bow 1. A live water compartment 9 is also provided at the rear of the bow 1. Anti-slip strips are provided on the outer surface of the door.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, fixing holes 11 are provided at the four corners of the bow 1, hull 2, and stern 3. The left buoy 4 and right buoy 5 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the stern 3, and the left drag-reducing plate 6 and right drag-reducing plate 7 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the hull 2. Anti-slip strips are provided on the surfaces of the left buoy 4, right buoy 5, left drag-reducing plate 6, and right drag-reducing plate 7.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment, a limiting edge 13 is provided on the stern end assembly surface of the bow 1, a fixed step 12 is provided on the bow end assembly surface of the stern 3, a fixed step 12 is provided on the bow end assembly surface of the hull 2, and a limiting edge 13 is provided on the stern end assembly surface. When the bow 1, hull 2, and stern 3 are assembled, the corresponding fixed steps 12 and limiting edges 13 form an engagement.
[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom surfaces of the bow 1, hull 2, and stern 3 are further provided with a smoothly transitioning herringbone structure 15. The hull 2, bow 1, and stern 3 are connected to each other by fasteners 16; the stern buoy 10 and stern 3 are connected by fasteners 16; the stern 3 is connected to the left buoy 4 and right buoy 5 by fasteners 16; and the hull 2 is connected to the left drag-reducing plate 6 and right drag-reducing plate 7 by fasteners 16. In this embodiment, the nuts of the fasteners 16 have both ring-shaped and butterfly-shaped structures, and the specifications of the fasteners 16 are 3 cm, 5 cm, 7 cm, and 12 cm.
[0041] In this embodiment, the bow 1 is equipped with a storage compartment 8, and a door is installed on the upper hinge of the storage compartment 8. A live water compartment 9 is also provided at the rear of the bow 1. The live water compartment 9 can be used as a container for fishing when swimming in the water, and the storage compartment 8 can be used as a storage container for tools on land. The live water compartment 9 at the rear of the bow 1 adds more space to the hull and can also be used for passenger rides.
[0042] In this embodiment, fixing holes 11 are provided at the four corners of the bow 1, hull 2, and stern 3 for placing fishing rods and other rigging equipment. The bottom surfaces of the bow 1, hull 2, and stern 3 are also provided with a smoothly transitioning herringbone structure 15. The pointed center is designed to reduce water resistance and stabilize the boat during operation, while the curved sides are designed to compress water from both sides. When turning left, the weight on the left side of the hull increases, resulting in stronger water pressure and increased buoyancy, leading to a smaller tilt angle and greater stability. When turning right, the weight on the right side of the hull increases, resulting in stronger water pressure and increased buoyancy, further reducing the tilt angle and enhancing stability.
[0043] The other components and connections are the same as in Specific Implementation Method 1.
[0044] Specific implementation method three: Combining Figures 1 to 10 In this embodiment, multiple reinforcing ribs 17 are provided at the bottom of the cabin of both the hull 2 and the stern 3. Preferably, the reinforcing ribs 17 are four grooved reinforcing ribs, which are formed by rotational molding. Furthermore, they are symmetrically arranged according to the herringbone structure 15, with two reinforcing ribs 17 on each side of the herringbone structure 15. The reinforcing ribs can enhance the overall strength of the hull 2 and the stern 3.
[0045] Specific implementation method four: Combination Figures 1 to 10 In this embodiment, the hull 2 and the stern 3 have an open-type storage structure, and the external dimensions of the hull 2 are smaller than the internal storage dimensions of the stern 3, so the hull 2 can be placed inside the stern 3. At the same time, the external dimensions of the bow 1 are smaller than the internal storage dimensions of the hull 2, so the bow 1 can be placed inside the hull 2.
[0046] In this embodiment, the bow 1 (stern end), stern 3 (head end), and hull 2 (head and stern ends) are all provided with mounting surfaces. Specifically, the stern end of the bow 1 is adapted to be mounted with the head end of the hull 2, and the head end of the stern 3 is adapted to be mounted with the stern end of the hull 2. The hull 2 has a fixed step 12 on the head mounting surface and a limiting edge 13 on the stern mounting surface. During assembly, the fixed step 12 and limiting edge 13 of the bow 1, hull 2, and stern 3 engage and are then locked by fasteners 16. The hull 2 and stern 3 have an open, retractable structure, and the external dimensions of the hull 2 are smaller than the internal retractable dimensions of the stern 3, allowing the hull 2 to be placed inside the stern 3. Similarly, the external dimensions of the bow 1 are smaller than the internal retractable dimensions of the hull 2, allowing the bow 1 to be placed inside the hull 2. The fasteners 16 consist of an annular screw and an annular nut, which are threaded together and both are welded with circular ring structures.
[0047] In practical use, when assembling the hull, the bow and stern of the hull 2 are aligned with the bow 1 and stern 3, respectively. The fixing steps 12 and limiting edges 13 at the two assembly points are engaged. The annular nut of the fastener 16 is unscrewed from the annular screw. The annular screw is passed through the connecting hole at the hull assembly point and the annular nut is screwed on. Therefore, the fastener 16 is tightened according to the diagonal tightening principle. Since both the annular screw and the annular nut are welded with a circular structure, the need for a wrench is avoided compared to traditional bolts. A metal rod is inserted into the circular ring to tighten the fastener 16. The long rod increases the torque, making it easier to lock the fastener 16. Similarly, the left buoy 4, right buoy 5, left drag reducing plate 6, right drag reducing plate 7, and stern buoy 10 are installed, and the ship can be launched.
[0048] When returning from the tour, tow the boat ashore and use the metal rod to loosen and remove fastener 16. Then proceed as follows: Figure 4 As shown, place the bow 1 into the hull 2, and then place the hull 2 into the stern 3. Note that the left buoy 4 and right buoy 5 on both sides of the stern 3 should be removed first. The fasteners 16 can be stored inside the storage compartment 8. The entire hull takes up little space after disassembly and can be put into the cargo compartment of a pickup truck or other vehicle, making it convenient to carry when traveling without the need for special transportation tools.
[0049] The other components and connections are the same as in Specific Implementation Method 1.
[0050] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
