DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

As described above, a ship which is pushed to move forward through air jet generally cooperates with an air cushion formed below the ship, so as to decrease a resistance of a water surface and increase a sailing speed. The above pneumatic ship is also called the hovercraft, which is often applied in a field of transportation.


The above hovercraft has a relatively large volume and power consumption, and a relatively poor control flexibility and energy-saving performance, so that an application range thereof is limited.


In another technical solution of a ship having a relatively high flexibility, in order to obtain a relatively large propulsive force, a propeller driven by a motor is arranged below the water surface, and meanwhile a water inlet and a water outlet are arranged. The propulsive force is generated by a water flow from the water inlet to the water outlet through a rotation of the propeller. The above technical solution requires the propeller to form the flow, so that foreign matter in water is easily attached to the propeller, which has a relatively poor reliability.


According to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, a pneumatic ship is provided, comprising a floating body and a pneumatic propulsion device arranged on the floating body, wherein: the floating body is suitable for floating on the water surface and has a relatively small self-weight; and, the pneumatic propulsion device is arranged on the floating body and directly generates the propulsive force through forming airflow, so as to push the pneumatic ship. Through pushing the pneumatic ship by the airflow, debris in the water is prevented from entering the pneumatic ship and an influence of a water flow direction is also avoided. Therefore, with the above pneumatic ship, actions of steering and moving become more flexible, and a cost is relatively low. Moreover, because an air outlet of the pneumatic propulsion device is located above a waterline, the debris in the water is prevented from entering the pneumatic ship, so that the pneumatic ship has a relatively high reliability.


With a social development, differentiated demands of different social groups become more and more. The pneumatic ship provided by the present invention can come into life and be used for daily recreation, and can also be applied in fields of unmanned rescue, unmanned detection, unmanned delivery and scientific investigation, which has a relatively wide application range.


In order to make objects, features and beneficial effects of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with the accompanying drawings as follows.


First Preferred Embodiment


FIG. 1 is a structural sketch view of a pneumatic ship according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, the pneumatic ship comprises a floating body 11 and a pneumatic propulsion device, wherein the pneumatic propulsion device comprises at least one pneumatic propeller.


According to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pneumatic propulsion device is embodied as a pneumatic propeller 12.


The floating body 11 is suitable for floating on a water surface. The floating body can be embodied as a surfboard. A user can stand, kneel or lie on an upper surface of the floating body 11, namely a surface where a pattern “B” shown in FIG. 1 is located, for surfing. A tail fin 111 is arranged at a lower surface of the floating body 11, so as to increase a stability of the pneumatic ship.


In other embodiments of the present invention, the floating body can be the surfboard of other shapes. One skilled in the art can understand that: all of the floating bodies that can be used for surfing belong to the surfboard, such as an inflatable rubber cushion, a rowboat and a kayak. However, an application range of the pneumatic ship provided by the first preferred embodiment is not limited to surfing.


A length of the floating body is limited to six meters, and a width thereof is limited to two meters.


According to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention, a density of the floating body can be smaller than a density of water; and materials of the floating body can be selected from polyurethane, synthetic resin, fiberglass, reinforced plastic and carbon fiber material.


The pneumatic propeller 12 is arranged on the floating body 11, and an air outlet of the pneumatic propeller 12 is arranged above a waterline “A1-A2” of the pneumatic ship shown in FIG. 1, so as to generate a propulsive force and push the floating body to move.


Furthermore, the pneumatic propeller 12 is connected to a tail part of the floating body 11; a jet direction of the pneumatic propeller 12 is a direction of a fore part of the floating body 11 pointing to the tail part of the floating body; and the jet direction of the pneumatic propeller 12 can be invariant with respect to the floating body 11.


With the above pneumatic ship, the user can change an attitude of the floating body through adjusting an own body posture, so as to adjust a sailing direction of the pneumatic ship. The operations are same or similar as operations adopted by the user when surfing. When surfing with the above pneumatic ship, it is relatively easy for the user who can surf expertly with a conventional surfboard to master operative skills.


Moreover, when surfing with the pneumatic ship provided by the first preferred embodiment, because of a propulsion effect of the pneumatic propeller of the pneumatic ship, requirements on natural conditions of the surfboard are decreased. When a sea wave is relatively small, the pneumatic propeller can be utilized for accelerating, so as to improve a surfing experience of the user.


One skilled in the art can understand that: the pneumatic propeller 12 is exemplary only; a specific structure and shape of the pneumatic propeller can be different from that shown in FIG. 1; the pneumatic propeller provided by the present invention can be selected from various pneumatic propellers in prior art. The pneumatic propeller can be electric or driven by a gas turbine.


Moreover, the pneumatic propeller can also be a jet propeller, a compressed air system with a fan or other types of propellers that can form the airflow to provide the propulsive force. Correspondingly, the air outlet of the pneumatic propeller can be an air jet outlet or an air outlet of the fan in the compressed air system. The above various pneumatic propellers generate the propulsive force through forming the airflow. For description convenience, in the present invention, the various ways for generating the airflow are all called jet, and jet is not the limitation of the specific way for generating the airflow.


In other embodiments of the present invention, the air outlet of the pneumatic propeller can also be located at a position of “A3” shown in FIG. 1 or other positions above the waterline of the floating body. Correspondingly, the pneumatic propeller can also be contained inside the floating body.


The number of the pneumatic propeller matches with a size and a weight of the floating body, so that the pneumatic propeller becomes suitable for generating the propulsive force to push the floating body to move.


Although FIG. 1 shows the first preferred embodiment with merely one pneumatic propeller as the pneumatic propulsion device, in the specific application, the pneumatic propulsion device can comprise a plurality of pneumatic propellers. The pneumatic propeller can also be arranged at the middle part or the fore part of the floating body.


Moreover, although the jet direction of the pneumatic propeller 12 shown in FIG. 1 is invariant with respect to the floating body 11, in the specific application, the pneumatic propulsion device can comprise a pneumatic propeller having a changeable jet direction with respect to the floating body. The pneumatic propeller with the changeable jet direction belongs to a first pneumatic propulsive unit.


That is to say, in the specific application, the pneumatic ship comprises the floating body and the pneumatic propulsion device, wherein: the pneumatic propulsion device comprises at least one pneumatic propeller; whether each pneumatic propeller belongs to the first pneumatic propulsive unit or a second pneumatic propulsive unit is determined by whether the jet direction of the pneumatic propeller can change with respect to the floating body. The pneumatic propulsion device comprises at least one of the first pneumatic propulsive unit and the second pneumatic propulsive unit.


Specifically, the first pneumatic propulsive unit comprise at least one pneumatic propeller, wherein: the jet direction of each pneumatic propeller in the first pneumatic propulsive unit is adjustable with respect to the floating body; and the jet directions of every pneumatic propeller in the first pneumatic propulsive unit can be the same or not. A jet quantity per unit time of each pneumatic propeller in the first pneumatic propulsive unit is also adjustable.


The pneumatic propulsion device can merely comprise the second pneumatic propulsive unit, wherein merely a jet quantity per unit time of the second pneumatic propulsive unit can be changed; and the second pneumatic propulsive unit comprises at least one pneumatic propeller. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the pneumatic propulsion device of the pneumatic ship merely comprises the second pneumatic propulsive unit, and the second pneumatic propulsive unit merely comprises the pneumatic propeller 12.


The pneumatic propulsion device can merely comprise the first pneumatic propulsive unit or the second pneumatic propulsive unit (as shown in FIG. 1). It is also feasible than the pneumatic propulsion device comprises both of the first pneumatic propulsive unit and the second pneumatic propulsive unit. The above pneumatic propulsion devices have different application scenes and beneficial effects, and are respectively described as follows.


When the pneumatic propulsion device merely comprises the first pneumatic propulsive unit, a jet quantity per unit time and a jet direction with respect to the floating body of each pneumatic propeller of the pneumatic ship are adjustable, so that the pneumatic ship has a better flexibility and controllability.


When the pneumatic propulsion device merely comprises the second pneumatic propulsive unit, a control of the pneumatic ship depends on body movements of the user, a cost is relatively low and requirements of the surfing user are well met.


When the pneumatic propulsion device comprises the first pneumatic propulsive unit and the second pneumatic propulsive unit, a stability of the pneumatic ship is increased and part of the cost is decreased.


In conclusion, the pneumatic propulsion device can be arranged according to the application scene and is not limited herein.


A control of the pneumatic propulsion device is illustrated in detail as follows.


As shown in FIG. 2, the pneumatic ship further comprises a sensing mechanism 21 and a controller 22, wherein the sensing mechanism 21 senses an action of the user and generates a sensing signal according to the user action; and, the controller 22 is suitable for generating a control signal according to the sensing signal, so as to control the pneumatic propulsion device.


The pneumatic propulsion device comprises at least one of the first pneumatic propulsive unit 23 and the second pneumatic propulsive unit 24. The jet direction and the jet quantity per unit time of the first pneumatic propulsive unit 23 can be both controlled by the controller 22; and, the jet quantity per unit time of the second pneumatic propulsive unit 24 can also be controlled by the controller 22.


The sensing mechanism 21 can be arranged at the floating body. The sensing mechanism 21 comprises at least one sensor which is suitable for generating the sensing signal according to the sensed user action. The sensor can be a pressure sensor, a torque sensor or an image sensor. The sensor can also be the other sensing device that can sense the user action and generate the sensing signal.


The controller 22 is suitable for receiving the sensing signal and generating the control signal according to the sensing signal, so as to control at least one of the jet direction and the jet quantity per unit time of the first pneumatic propulsive unit 23. It is also feasible that the controller generates the control signal according to the sensing signal, so as to control the jet quantity per unit time of the second pneumatic propulsive unit 24.


A control of the controller 22 on the second pneumatic propulsive unit 24 can refer to a control of the controller on the first pneumatic propulsive unit 23. The control of the controller 22 on the first pneumatic propulsive unit 23 is illustrated as follows.


In the specific application, a specific shape and structure of the sensing mechanism 21 and a configuration of the sensor are various and further described as follows.


Besides the sensor, the sensing mechanism can further comprise: a connection rod with a first end connected with the floating body; and a holding part connected with a second end of the connection rod. At the moment, a position and a type of the sensor have various choices and are illustrated as follows.



FIG. 3 is a structural sketch view of a first sensing mechanism according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention. The sensing mechanism comprises a connection rod 31, a left holding part 32 and a right holding part 33 which are connected to the connection rod 31, and sensors respectively arranged at the left holding part 32 and the right holding part 33.


The sensors can be pressure sensors, for respectively measuring pressures withstood by the left holding part 32 and the right holding part 33. The sensor can also be two surface sensors, which respectively cover surfaces of the left holding part 32 and the right holding part 33.



FIG. 4 shows a structural sketch view of a second sensing mechanism. A plurality of sensors are distributed on part of the surfaces of the left holding part 32 and the right holding part 33.



FIG. 5 shows a structural sketch view of a third sensing mechanism. The sensing mechanism comprises a connection rod 51 and a holding part, wherein the holding part comprises a left holding part 52 and a right holding part 53; both of the left holding part 52 and the right holding part 53 are connected to the connection rod 51.


A connection surface 54 is a section where the left holding part 52 and the connection rod 51 are connected. A normal direction of the connection surface 54 is obliquely connected with the connection rod. The sensor is arranged at the connection surface 54. Because the normal direction of the connection surface 54 is obliquely connected with the connection rod, a direction of the pressure measured by the sensor arranged at the connection surface 54 can reflect a force direction of the sensing mechanism more comprehensively, so as to sense the user action more accurately.



FIG. 6 is a structural sketch view of the connection surface between the left holding part and the connection rod shown in FIG. 5.


Furthermore, the sensor arranged at the connection surface can be an annular flake sensor arranged at an area 61 shown in FIG. 6. Alternatively, a plurality of sensors are arranged at the area 61, so as to measure the pressure between the left holding part 52 and the connection rod 51.


The connection rod and the holding part of the sensing mechanism can be integrated together or connected in other ways, such as welding and clamping.


In the specific application, the sensors of the sensing mechanism measure the pressures withstood by the left holding part and the right holding part. After obtaining the sensing signal, the controller controls the first pneumatic propulsive unit according to the sensing signal.


For example, when a resultant force of the pressures withstood by the left and right holding parts comprises a leftward component, the controller can control all or part of the pneumatic propellers in the first pneumatic propulsive unit to jet towards left rear; conversely, the controller can control all or part of the pneumatic propellers in the first pneumatic propulsive unit to jet towards right rear.


The controller can also control the jet quantity per unit time of the first pneumatic propulsive unit according to the sensing signal. For example, when the measured resultant force of the pressures withstood by the left and right holding parts is forward, the controller increases the jet quantity per unit time; when the measured resultant force is backward, the controller decreases the jet quantity per unit time.


The controller is able to judge according to specific values of the pressures withstood by the left and right holding parts, so as to adjust the jet direction and the jet quantity of the first pneumatic propulsive unit more accurately. For example, when the measured resultant force of the pressures withstood by the left and right holding parts is backward and larger than a preset value, the controller can decrease the jet quantity per unit time of the first pneumatic propulsive unit; when the jet quantity per unit time is decreased to zero, the controller can control the first pneumatic propulsive unit to jet forward, until the user implements the subsequent operation.


When the first pneumatic propulsive unit comprises a plurality of pneumatic propellers, the controller can respectively control the plurality of pneumatic propellers according to the sensing signal and configuration positions of the plurality of pneumatic propellers.


The control of the controller on the first pneumatic propulsive unit has various ways. Besides the above-described examples, the control signal can be obtained through other ways of calculating a value and a direction of the pressure measured by each sensor, and then the controller controls the first pneumatic propulsive unit according to the control signal.


The holding part of the sensing mechanism can also be spherical (referring to FIG. 7) or disc-shaped (referring to FIG. 8) and is described as follows.


In FIG. 7, the sensing mechanism comprises a connection rod 71, a holding part 72 and a sensor, wherein the sensor is arranged between the connection rod 71 and the floating body, such as in an area 73, so as to measure a pressure between the connection rod and the floating body.


The sensor obtains the sensing signal through the pressure between the connection rod 71 and the floating body; and, the controller generates the control signal according to a value and a direction of the pressure and controls the pneumatic propulsion device according to the control signal.


In FIG. 8, the sensing mechanism comprises a connection rod 81, a holding part 82 and a sensor, wherein the sensor is arranged between the connection rod 81 and the floating body, such as in an area 83, so as to measure a torque between the connection rod and the floating body.


The sensor generates the sensing signal according to the torque between the connection rod 81 and the floating body; and, the controller generates the control signal according to a value and a direction of the torque, so as to realize the control of the pneumatic propulsion device.


In other embodiments of the present invention, a button can be arranged at the holding part or the connection rod; through pressing the button, the user determines a sailing direction and a sailing speed.
