Problems solved by technology

However, the configuration of the nozzle above the unit's center of gravity gives the impression that the occupant is hanging from a virtual crane hook on the shoulder, and thus deprives the occupant of many of the sensations / perceptions: landing, impromptu or acrobatic / acrobatic type movements
Also, limited variety / kind of orientation and movement
It is not easy to move "sideways" for example with known devices or to change instantly from a straight track above the surface to a diving phase followed by multiple movements under the surface

Embodiment Construction

[0034] figure 1 An embodiment of a propulsion device 10 according to the invention is shown, said device comprising a body in the form of a substantially planar platform 11 . The platform comprises a top surface 11a on which an occupant 1 can be positioned. Depending on the size of the platform and the power of the device, the invention is arranged to enable a plurality of occupants to optionally be positioned simultaneously on the top surface 11a of said platform 11 . The platform may advantageously be fabricated from a material or materials that, alone or in combination, are sufficiently rigid to withstand the weight of the occupant or occupants and thus prevent undue buckling. It may be preferred that the platform is made of a material to determine the buoyancy of the device when the device is submerged. According to these embodiments, the platform may thus have one or more cavities filled with air or vacuum in order to improve the buoyancy of the platform. Alternatively...

Abstract

The invention relates to a propulsion system (10) comprising a body (11) arranged to receive an occupant (1) and to engage with a thrust unit (12a, 12b, 13a, 13b), the thrust unit ( 12a, 12b, 13a, 13b) are supplied with pressurized fluid from a compression station. The arrangement of such devices provides greater freedom of movement through the air or below the surface of the fluid. The invention also relates to a propulsion system in which the compression station can be remotely located in the form of a motorized marine vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to devices and systems for propelling an occupant so that the occupant can move through air or within a fluid with great freedom of movement by virtue of the agility and size of the occupant. [0002] The invention also provides for the system to be simple to implement and accessible to as many people as possible. Background technique [0003] Moving through space has always been one of the major aspirations of mankind. Many machines have been produced, each more complex than the one preceding it, in order to realize this dream with greater or lesser success. [0004] Therefore, in an attempt to move easily in an environment as diverse as the surface of water and to contact sometimes hostile environments, a propulsion device such as that described in US Pat. A body in the form of a seat on / in which the occupant can be positioned. Such a body is engaged with a thrust unit, in particular in the form of a pair of nozzles f...
