Technical Field

The present invention relates to a propulsion system for a power boat, and more particularly, to a propulsion system which can increase the propulsion efficiency and is also applicable to a boat having a shallow draft.

Background

The outboard engine is a detachable power device installed at the stern, mainly transmits the power provided by a power source (such as an internal combustion engine or a motor) to a propeller, and pushes the boat to advance by the rotation of the propeller.

In order to make the outboard motor have good propulsion efficiency, the propeller is wholly sunk into water in the traditional design so as to ensure that the propeller has enough draught, but in such a way, besides the increase of water resistance, the propeller is easy to collide with a river bed or stir into foreign matters (such as plastic bags, fishing nets or aquatic plants) at the same time, so that the propeller is damaged, and aquatic organisms can be even hurt.

Disclosure of Invention

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a propulsion system for a power boat, which can improve the propulsion efficiency and can be applied even when the draft of the boat is shallow.

To achieve the above objective, the propulsion system of the present invention comprises a support frame, an outboard engine, a diversion assembly, and a water diversion seat. The support frame is arranged at the stern of the power boat; the outboard engine is arranged on the support frame and is provided with an impeller, and the axis position of the impeller is higher than the bottom of the power boat; the guide assembly is provided with a guide ring and a nozzle, the guide ring is covered on the impeller, and the nozzle is connected to the rear end of the guide ring and is adjacently arranged on the impeller; the water diversion seat is arranged at the stern of the power boat and is positioned below the support frame, the bottom of the water diversion seat is provided with a water diversion port, the water diversion seat is provided with a water drainage port facing the water diversion ring, and a water diversion channel is formed between the water diversion port and the water drainage port.

Through the design, when the impeller starts to rotate, water flow at the bottom of the ship is sucked into the water guide channel through the water guide port of the water guide seat, then is discharged into the flow guide ring through the water discharge port of the water guide seat, and finally is sprayed out from the nozzle after the flow rectification action of the impeller, so that the water flow is in a low-pressure and large-flow spraying state, the propulsion efficiency can be improved compared with the prior art, and the power type boat is also suitable for use when the draft of the power type boat is shallow.

The detailed construction, features, assembly or use of the propulsion system for a powered boat provided by the present invention will be described in the detailed description of the embodiments that follow. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the preferred embodiment of the invention, are intended for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

Directional phrases used in the embodiments, such as "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," and the like, refer only to the orientation of the figure. Accordingly, the directional terminology used is intended to be in the nature of words of description rather than of limitation.

Applicants first describe herein, throughout the specification and claims that follow, examples and claims, directional terms are used with respect to the drawings and reference numerals. Next, in the embodiments and drawings to be described below, the same element numbers denote the same or similar elements or structural features thereof.

Referring to fig. 1-3, the propulsion system 16 of the present invention includes a support frame 18, an outboard motor 20, a diversion assembly 34, and a water diversion seat 40.

The support bracket 18 is fixed to the stern 12 adjacent to the top end of the stern 12 by welding or screwing.

The outboard motor 20 has a housing 22 for covering an engine (not shown in the drawings, which is prior art), an extension case 24 for accommodating a drive shaft (not shown in the drawings) is connected to a lower portion of the housing 22, a bracket 26 is provided on a front side of the extension case 24, the outboard motor 20 is hung on the support frame 18 by the bracket 26, a gear case 28 for connecting the drive shaft is connected to a lower portion of the extension case 24, a vortex breaker 32 is provided between the gear case 28 and the extension case 26, a rear end of the gear case 28 is connected to an impeller 30, and as shown in fig. 2, an axial center position of the impeller 30 is higher than a bottom 14 of the vessel. Therefore, the power generated by the engine is transmitted to the gear box 28 via the drive shaft, and is transmitted to the impeller 30 after being decelerated by the gear box 28, so that the impeller 30 is rotated.

The deflector assembly 34 has a deflector ring 36 and a nozzle 38. The guide ring 36 is disposed on the anti-vortex baffle 32 of the outboard motor 20 and covers the entire impeller 30 and a portion of the gear box 28, and the nozzle 38 is screwed to the rear end of the guide ring 36 and is disposed adjacent to the impeller 30.

The water diversion seat 40 is fixed to the stern 12 and located below the support frame 18 by welding or screwing. The bottom of the water guide seat 40 has a water guide port 42, the position of the water guide port 42 is substantially flush with the ship bottom 14, the rear end of the water guide seat 40 has a water discharge port 44 facing the guide ring 36, and a water guide channel 46 extending obliquely is formed between the water guide port 42 and the water discharge port 44.

As can be seen from the above structure, when the impeller 30 starts to rotate, the water flow of the ship bottom 14 is sucked into the water guide channel 46 through the water inlet 42 of the water guide seat 40, then is discharged into the guide ring 36 through the water outlet 44 of the water guide seat 40, and then is discharged from the nozzle 38 after being rectified by the impeller 30, so that the water flow is in a low-pressure and high-flow spraying state. When the boat 10 is decelerated or stopped, the impeller 30 is controlled to rotate from the decelerated and stopped state to the reverse direction.

In summary, the propulsion system 16 of the present invention has the following advantages over the prior art:

1) the support frame 18 is used to increase the installation height of the outboard motor 20, and the impeller 30 rotates in the guide ring 36, so that the outboard motor is less likely to collide with a river bed or be damaged by being hooked by foreign matters, and fish, swimmers or divers near the bottom 14 are less likely to be injured, so that the outboard motor is also applicable to a shallow draft of the boat 10, and is also quite suitable for being applied to a rescue boat.

2) In operation, water is first sucked into the water guide seat 40, then guided from the water guide seat 40 into the guide ring 36, finally rectified by the impeller 30 and then ejected backwards from the nozzle 38, so that a vortex is not easily generated behind the stern 12, thereby improving propulsion efficiency and maneuverability of the boat 10.

The above-mentioned embodiments are intended to illustrate the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention in further detail, and it should be understood that the above-mentioned embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention, and any modifications, equivalents, improvements and the like made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
