Paddle Board Double Space Sheet Wedge Design
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional paddle boards are bulky, difficult to store and transfer, and lack a design that enhances speed feeling due to their material composition and configuration, which complicates usage and durability.
Innovation Solution
A paddle board with a body formed from a double space sheet that accommodates air, featuring a wedge part protruding from the lower side of the front end, formed by injecting air into the board body, which reduces water resistance and enhances speed feeling through a simplified configuration.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Strength
If a conventional surfing board is made of wooden material, then it has sufficient strength and durability, but it becomes heavy (about 50kg) and hard to store and transfer
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses a double space sheet structure with fiber threads to create a flexible yet strong board body. The thin film-like space sheets provide sufficient strength while dramatically reducing weight compared to traditional wooden boards. The fiber threads reinforce the structure without adding significant weight.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent combines space sheets with fiber threads to create a composite structure that achieves both light weight and sufficient strength. This composite approach replaces traditional solid wooden material with a lightweight yet durable combination of thin sheets and reinforcing fibers.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a paddle board is made with multiple components (front side member, rear side member, molding member, sheet member, Velcro tape), then it can be assembled, but the configuration becomes complicated and durability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the front side member, rear side member, and connecting components into a single integrated double space sheet structure. The fiber threads are embedded within the space sheets themselves, eliminating the need for separate molding members and connection components, thereby simplifying the overall configuration.
Solution Approach 2:
The double space sheet structure serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides the board's structural framework, contains the air cushioning, provides the connecting elements through embedded fiber threads, and forms the surface geometry. This multi-functionality eliminates the need for separate specialized components.
3Device complexity
If the lower surface of the front side of the board is formed in a plane shape, then the structure is simple, but the user cannot feel speed feeling when using the board
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies a wedge-shaped lower surface specifically at the front end of the board where it interacts with water during movement. This localized geometric modification creates the necessary hydrodynamic interaction to generate speed feeling, while the rest of the board maintains its simple planar structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The wedge shape creates a curved, angled surface at the front lower portion of the board that interacts with water flow. This curved geometry guides water away from the board surface, creating a hydrodynamic effect that enhances speed perception without requiring complex overall structure.
