[0064] DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0065] With reference to the abstract of the preferred embodiment of the new Speed Cycling Watercraft and with reference to the drawings, and in particular to fig. 22 and 29 thereof, the preferred embodiment, of the new Speed Cycling Watercraft, constructed in accordance with principle and concept of the present Invention, generally designed by the reference numerals 1 to 48 will be described. These preferred embodiments are for water propelled vessels fig. 22 and air propelled vessels fig. 29.

[0066] The present invention, the new Speed Cycling Watercraft is a system comprised of plurality of individual components, in their broadest context; such components are housed in segments. The components are individually configured and correlated with respect to each other to attain the desired objectives.

[0067] Essentially and in summary, the present invention, the new Speed Cycling Watercraft as in fig. 1, comprises platform circle 1, horizontal structures circle 2, steering gearbox circle 3, vertical structures circle 4, motion transmission mechanism circle 5, gearbox circle 6, propeller shaft housing circle 7 and propeller circle 8. For water propelled, the propeller shaft housing is constructed vertically downwards circle 29 in fig. 21 and 22, to hold the submersible gearbox propelling in water and for the air propelled, propeller shaft circle 7 is constructed longitudinal.

[0068] To attain this, the horizontal cycling structures circle 2 in fig. 2 is fabricated and fastened on the ready positioned bolts on the floor of the plane. Vertical structures circle 4 in fig. 3, are fabricated and assembled on the horizontal structures circle 2. To produce a linear wheel to be fixed on this vertical structure for motion transmission, an inverted tee bar circle 14 in fig. 4 is bend into a circle as in fig.7 and the joint welded.

[0069] The up stand flange is then cut into teeth to form an inverted tee bar sprocket circle 14 in fig. 8. A flat bar circle 15 in fig. 5 is again bend into a corrugation and further bend into a circle to form a corrugated rim circle 17 in fig. 9 to harness spokes circle 18 and hub circle 19. A formed solid wheel or cut from a thick plate and shaped circle 16 in fig. 6, is also fabricated and mainly to boost the cycling energy and inertia for cycling sustainability.

[0070] These three wheels, solid wheel or flywheel in fig, 6, inverted tee bar sprocket in fig. 8 and a corrugated rim circle 17 in fig. 9, harnessing spokes circle 18, and hub circle 19, are assembled together to form a linear wheel in fig. 10 and 11. A plate channels circle 21 in fig. 12 and 13 are fabricated and fitted on the arms of the gearbox circle 6 to align and regulate the running of the secondary chain circle 31 in fig. 15, and make the chain to operate at right angle from the linear wheel. This creates an environment on the linear wheel to maximize its inertia in operation and eliminate cycling friction.

[0071] The installation of the peddle wheel and linear wheel on the vertical structure circle 4 is immovable, therefore the primary chain tension bracket circle 24, mounted with tension sprocket circle 25 and return sprocket circle 26, is fabricated and fitted on the vertical structure circle 4 close to free wheel circle 27 in fig. 14, 15, and 16. Fig. 15 illustrates mechanism for air propelled platform and fig. 16 for water propelled platform. When primary chain circle 28 is mounted on the peddle wheel circle 29, free wheel circle 27 and primary chain tension bracket circle 24 and the secondary chain mounted on the linear wheel circle 30, input sprocket circle 20, secondary chain tension sprocket circle 22 and return sprocket circle 23, the cycling motion can then be transmitted to gearbox circle 6.
