Benefits of technology

[0006]The object of the present invention is to provide a propeller driven surfing device which has reduced resistance in water so as to achieve an enhanced driving force for forward propulsion.

Problems solved by technology

However, as the propeller unit 12 is disposed outwardly of the surfboard 11, increased resistance will result to weaken the propelling force.

Embodiment Construction

[0022]Before the present invention is described in greater detail, it should be noted that same reference numerals have been used to denote like elements throughout the specification.

[0023]Referring to FIGS. 2 to 5, the first preferred embodiment of a propeller driven surfing device according to the present invention is shown to comprise a buoyant body 2, a drive unit 3, and a control unit 4.

[0024]The buoyant body 2 has nose and tail ends 20,21 opposite to each other in a longitudinal direction, and front and rear trunk segments 23,24 which are interposed between the nose and tail ends 20,21, and which are respectively proximate to the nose and tail ends 20,21. The buoyant body 2 has deck and bottom surfaces 25,26 opposite to each other in an upright direction, and which extend respectively from the nose end 20 to the tail end 21. The nose end 20 and the front trunk segment 23 are integrally formed, and are configured to have an outer contour that is divergent from the nose end 20 t...

Abstract

A propeller driven surfing device includes a buoyant body having an outer contour divergent from a nose end to a front trunk segment, a rearmost surface which has a water outlet port that extends forwardly to form a water passage, and a water intake port that extends from a bottom surface to be communicated with the water passage. A drive motor is disposed in the buoyant body, and has an output shaft which extends into the passage to drive a propeller disposed in the passage. A power supply is disposed in the buoyant body and is operably coupled to the drive motor.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority of Taiwanese Application No. 096101600, filed on Jan. 16, 2007.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]This invention relates to a surfing device, more particularly to a propeller driven surfing device that is driven by a motor to move through water.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Referring to FIG. 1, a conventional propeller driven surfing device 1 is shown to include a surfboard 11, a propeller unit 12 disposed on the surfboard 11, a stabilizing handle 13 coupled to the propeller unit 12, and a handlebar 14 connected to the stabilizing handle 13. The propeller unit 12 includes a drive motor 121 which is mounted on a rear edge of the surfboard 11, and a propeller 122 which is disposed rearwardly of the surfboard 11 and which is coupled to the drive motor 121 to be driven to propel the surfboard 11. The propeller driven surfing device 1 can be driven to move through rela...
