[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0022] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0023] See Figures 1-4 This application provides an outboard motor with diving function, including: a mounting unit including a bracket 11, disposed on the hull; a rotating unit including a rotating shaft 21 and a housing 22, the rotating shaft 21 being rotatably disposed relative to the bracket 11, and the housing 22 being connected to the rotating shaft 21; a propulsion unit disposed at the end of the rotating shaft 21 away from the housing 22; and an air pump supply unit including a pressure air pump 41, a pressure switch 42, and an air outlet pipe 43, the pressure air pump 41 being connected to the air outlet pipe 43, the pressure switch 42 being used to control the on / off state of the air outlet pipe 43, for providing high-pressure gas underwater and for supplying air for underwater breathing to divers.

[0024] Preferably, the bracket 11 is fixed to the hull; the housing 22 is fixed to the rotating shaft 21; by combining the outboard motor with the diving breathing apparatus system, surface propulsion and underwater diving are combined, solving the problem of divers carrying a lot of complicated equipment during long-distance diving. Through ingenious structural design, it can solve both long-distance rapid propulsion and underwater breathing for divers, improving work efficiency. At the same time, it conforms to the current new energy era and promotes the widespread application of electric propulsion on the water. The propulsion unit is used to provide the power propulsion required for surface navigation, and the air pump supply unit is used to provide the breathing air required for underwater diving.

[0025] Furthermore, the housing 22 is provided with a receiving cavity 220; the pressure pump 41 includes an air inlet 411 and an air outlet 412; the rotating unit also includes: a first air inlet pipe 23, one end of which is connected to the receiving cavity 220 and the other end extends to the outside of the housing 22; a second air inlet pipe 24, one end of which extends into the receiving cavity 220 and is higher than the bottom wall of the housing 22, and the other end is connected to the air inlet 411 of the pressure pump 41; and an air outlet pipe 43 is connected to the air outlet 412 of the pressure pump 41.

[0026] The pressure air pump 41 draws air from the outside through the second air inlet pipe 24, the receiving cavity 220, and the first air inlet pipe 23, and then discharges it through the air outlet pipe 43 for use by divers. The receiving cavity 220 can separate the first air inlet pipe 23 and the second air inlet pipe 24, and has the effect of buffering air. Along the length of the rotating shaft 21, the first air inlet pipe 23 and the second air inlet pipe 24 form a staggered structure in the receiving cavity 220. Non-air substances that enter the first air inlet pipe 23 will sink to the bottom of the receiving cavity 220 and will not enter the pressure air pump 41 and cause damage to it, nor will they affect the pressure air pump 41 from drawing air from the second air inlet pipe 23.

[0027] Furthermore, the air pump supply unit also includes: an air outlet quick-connect interface 45, which is installed in the air outlet pipeline 43 to enable quick assembly and disassembly of the air circuit.

[0028] Furthermore, the housing 22 is provided with a drain outlet 221 and a water level switch 222. The drain outlet 221 is connected to the receiving cavity 220, and the water level switch 222 is located at the drain outlet 221. When the water level in the receiving cavity 220 reaches the preset height of the water level switch 222, the pressure pump 41 stops, the water level switch 222 opens, and the liquid in the receiving cavity 220 is discharged from the drain outlet 221.

[0029] Furthermore, the air pump supply unit also includes: a controller (not shown), connected to the pressure air pump 41; and a pressure switch 30, located inside the housing 22, connected between the air outlet 412 and the air outlet pipeline 43, and connected to the controller, used to detect the air pressure output by the pressure air pump 41. When the pressure switch 30 detects that the air pressure output by the pressure air pump 41 continuously reaches four atmospheres, it indicates that the device is not in use or that the air outlet pipeline 43 is faulty, and controls the pressure air pump 41 to stop or the device to alarm via a relay; when the pressure switch 30 detects that the air pressure output by the pressure air pump 41 drops to three atmospheres, it controls the pressure air pump 41 to start via a relay.

[0030] Furthermore, the air pump supply unit also includes an external air pipe 44, which is connected to the end of the air outlet pipe 43 away from the second air inlet pipe 24, so that the drag resistance is less than that of the tugboat when the diver is underwater.

[0031] Furthermore, the rotating unit also includes a first sleeve 25 and a second sleeve 26, coaxially configured and connected to the bracket 11. The rotating shaft 21 is rotatably disposed on the inner circumference of the first sleeve 25 and the inner circumference of the second sleeve 26. By coaxially configuring the first sleeve 25 and the second sleeve 26 and connecting them to the bracket 11, a stable and reliable dual-point support is provided for the rotating shaft 21, enhancing the stability of the rotating shaft 21 during high-speed rotation, evenly distributing the load, reducing wear on the rotating shaft 21, and improving the life and strength of the rotating unit.

[0032] Furthermore, the air pump supply unit also includes: a power supply box 46, including a quick connector 462, which is connected to one end of the pressure switch 42 away from the air outlet pipe 43; and a switch device 47, which is connected to the other end of the pressure switch 42 away from the air outlet pipe 43 and is disposed in the power supply box 46. Specifically, the switch device 47 includes an air pump switch 42, which is disposed on the side of the power supply box 46. The quick connector 462 enables quick circuit connection and facilitates battery replacement.

[0033] Furthermore, the rotating unit also includes: a handle 27, located on the rotating shaft 21 and on the side of the housing 22 away from the first sleeve 25, providing the user with a direct and effortless operating fulcrum; the air pump supply unit also includes: a mounting bracket 48, connected to the side of the first sleeve 25 away from the bracket 11, used to install the power supply box 46, effectively reducing the impact on the power supply box 46. In addition, the mounting unit also includes: a propeller 12, fixed to the side of the bracket 11 away from the rotating shaft 21, with its length extending at a 90° angle to the rotating shaft 21, reducing navigation resistance; a tailplate 13, fixedly connected between the bracket 11 and the propeller 12, enhancing structural stability and forming a rigid support; and a water-breaking device 50, connected to the pressure air pump 41, used to reduce resistance.

[0034] Furthermore, the propulsion unit includes: a power pump 31, located at the end of the rotating shaft 21 away from the housing 22; a power propeller 32 connected to the power pump 31; a power switch 33 connected to the power pump 32 for controlling the on / off state of the power pump 32; and a magnetic switch 34 connected to the power propeller 32. The power propeller 32 may employ a multi-propeller design, such as dual-propeller or quad-propeller, corresponding to a single-pump or dual-pump configuration. For example, two power propellers 32 may correspond to a single power pump 31 and a single power switch 33, or four power propellers 32 may correspond to dual power pumps 31 and two power switches 33, to adjust the thrust. The power switch 33 is a mechanical push-button switch. A display screen 461 is also provided on the side of the power supply box 46 to display the battery level; the battery box 46 contains battery components, and a charging port 49 is also provided on the side of the power supply box 46 for charging the battery components. The propulsion unit also includes internal wiring 35 for connecting the power pump 31 and the propeller 32, and a fixing structure 36. The internal wiring 35 is connected to the switching device 47, and the fixing structure 36 is used to fix the propeller 32 and the power pump 31.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
