WATER BIKE (VOPED) Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B63B35/00 

FIELD: mechanical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of mechanical engineering, in particular to water bikes. A water bike includes a platform with floats, a seat, a pedal-driven propeller and a steering gear. The float is made in the form of a rigid floating body, inserted into a spatial power frame with the upper and lower planes and connected to them. A seat, a steering wheel, four supports with pedal drive bearings and two vertical drive shafts of propulsors are installed on the upper plane of the frame. Propeller shafts are connected in their upper part to the crankshaft by pairs of bevel gears to ensure counter rotation in forward and reverse modes. The propeller shafts are connected in their lower part through the axles with the propeller blades in frames to ensure their rotation from the vertical position during the working half-turn to the horizontal position during the idle half-turn. The combined opening in the body, the upper and lower planes of the frame is made in front of the seat, hermetically closed from below by a transparent screen. For control and stabilization, the rudder has underwater planes associated with it.

EFFECT: water bikes improvement.
