[0002] Quick fix system for kitesurf hydrofoil components
[0003] Field of the Invention
[0004]
[0005] The present invention is encompassed within the types of surfboards that incorporate so-called hydrofoils ( hydrofoil in English) and in a more specialized way for Kitesurf boards. More specifically, the invention relates to a system for quick fixation of the various components that make up such a hydrofoil.
[0006]
[0007] Background of the invention
[0008]
[0009] Kitesurfing is the fastest growing water sport today. It is a sport with a very recent history and is in a very strong technological evolution process.
[0010] Within the sport of Kitesurf there are several modalities, one of them is Kitesurf with hydrofoils, which in turn has several sub-modalities; learning, waves, competition, etc.
[0011] The equipment of the Kitesurf with hydrofoils is mainly composed of three elements as can be seen in Figure 1; kite (30) that provides the necessary traction to navigate, a board (20) that serves as a support and maneuver interface between the kite (30) and the hydrofoil (100) and finally the hydrofoil (100) that generates a force of lift that raises the board (20) and the athlete (10) on the surface of the water.
[0012]
[0013] On the other hand, a hydrofoil (100) (or hydrofoil in English) is basically a wing that works in water.
[0014]
[0015] For clarity in the description, although it should not be taken in an exclusive way, then, and as shown in Figure 1, the usual elements that can form a hydrofoil (100) and its functions, and more specifically of the type, are described of hydrofoils that can be installed on kitesurf boards:
[0016]
[0017] • Base plate (120). The normally metallic base used to join the mast (110) with the board. Transmits all loads between board and mast (110). The usual joint is screwed (160).
[0018]
[0019] • Mast (110). It has three basic functions:
[0020]
[0021] o Height. It provides the necessary distance between board and supporting surfaces, that is, wing (150) and stabilizer (130), so that the waves do not touch the board and the supporting surfaces remain submerged.
[0022]
[0023] o Lateral strength. The hydrofoil (100) as a whole has to provide the necessary forces to counteract the forces generated by the kite, board and user and thus be able to have a stable navigation. Also these forces have to allow maneuverability in transients. For this purpose, a force perpendicular to the plane of symmetry of the hydrofoil (100) is required, and this lateral force is provided by the mast (110).
[0024]
[0025] o Structural. The mast (110) is the component that transmits the loads between board and supporting surfaces and vice versa.
[0026]
[0027] • Wing (150). It provides all or much of the vertical force of the hydrofoil (100). This force is partly compensated by the weight of the user and board, as well as part of the kite's forces.
[0028]
[0029] • Vertical Stabilizer (130). Although not strictly necessary for balancing forces, the stabilizer greatly facilitates the use of hydrofoil (100) by giving it a longitudinal stability, both in depth and pitch angle. It can sustain up or down.
[0030]
[0031] • Fuselage (140). It is the structural component that joins the wing (150) and stabilizer (130) to the mast (110).
[0032]
[0033] The joints between the components described above are usually made using screws (160).
[0034]
[0035] Description of the invention
[0036]
[0037] It is necessary to offer an alternative to the state of the art that covers the gaps found therein and therefore, unlike existing solutions, this invention proposes a system for quickly fixing components of a hydrofoil (100).
[0038]
[0039] Specifically, the invention relates to a quick fixation system for hydrofoil components (100) comprising: in a first hydrofoil component (100): - a connecting piece (210); in a second component of the hydrofoil (100): - a piece of tabs (220), - an elastic recovery element (230), and - a closure plate (240), wherein said connecting piece (210) includes two through machining (215), where said piece of tabs (220) It is a moving part that includes two tabs (225) with slope and a bolt in the opposite part to the eyelashes (225) to which the elastic recovery element (230) fits and where the tabs (225) of the eyelash piece (220) are arranged to join the through machining (215) of the connecting piece (210) with the first component and the second component of the hydrofoil (100) being fixed.

[0082] Detailed description of the invention
[0083]
[0084] The elements defined in this detailed description are provided to help a global understanding of the invention. Accordingly, those skilled in the art will recognize that variations and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. In addition, the detailed description of sufficiently known functions and elements are omitted for reasons of clarity and conciseness.
[0085]
[0086] The innovation is based on the concept that at least there has to be a connection between mast (110) and board and that it has the advantage that the assembly time is the least possible.
[0087] For this purpose, the use of secure pins (170) is proposed, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. This type of connection (170) allows the user (10) to reduce the assembly times of the equipment and reduce the risk of losing the connecting screws (160) in often complex environments such as sandy beaches or boats in constant motion.
[0088]
[0089] But the present invention extends this secure bonding and quick fixation to all components of the hydrofoil (100), specifically a quick fixation system between the following elements:
[0090]
[0091] • Mast (110) - Base Plate (120)
[0092]
[0093] • Mast (110) -Fuselage (140)
[0094]
[0095] • Wing (150) -Fuselage (140)
[0096]
[0097] • Stabilizer (130) -Fuselage (140)
[0098]
[0099] The requirements that this fixing system meets are:
[0100]
[0101] • Assembly less than 1 minute.
[0102]
[0103] • No tools needed.
[0104]
[0105] • No loose items susceptible to loss
[0106]
[0107] • Resistant to marine and abrasive environment
[0108]
[0109] • Ability to transmit cargo
[0110]
[0111] • High durability and reliability
[0112]
[0113] • Cheap and easy to repair
[0114]
[0115] • Provide a structural claim.
[0116]
[0117] The secure joining system of the present invention is based on a system of metal tabs that allow pretension and very fast assembly. Figures 5 through 11 show the components of the invention; specifically, said figures show specifically the connection between mast (110) and fuselage (140). The remaining components of the hydrofoil (100) are joined with the same concept and the same components.
[0118] The union of the invention is composed of the following elements:
[0119]
[0120] • Union piece (210): it is the main component of union and transmission of loads between the two components of the hydrofoil (100) to be joined; in Figures 5-11 mast (110) and fuselage (140). It consists of two machining (215) through where the two tabs (225) that hold the assembly.
[0121]
[0122] • Eyelash part (220): a mobile part with two tabs (225) with slope that are introduced when the joint is closed in the two holes (215) of the connection piece (210) is treated. On the same side of the tabs (225) in slope, this piece (220) has a button (226) to release the system. The part (220) has a bolt on the opposite side to the tabs (225) where the recovery spring (230) is adjusted. The spring (230) can be replaced by another mechanical elastic recovery element.
[0123]
[0124] • Spring (230): the spring (230) is used so that unless the opening mechanism is activated, button (226) of the flange (220), the mechanism will be in the closed position.
[0125]
[0126] • Closing plate (240): it serves as the cover of the recess in the fuselage (140) that houses the mechanism and as a support for the spring (230).
[0127]
[0128] As an example, in a non-exclusive way, as mentioned, the Mast (110) -Fuselage (140), the quick fixation system starting from a position where both elements are uncoupled, is very simple. Figure 10 shows the starting point.
[0129] To operate the joint, the user (10) must insert the joint piece (210), in this case attached to the mast (110) in the recess made in the fuselage (140). When introduced (210), due to the slope of the flanges (225) of the flange piece (220), it will move backwards compressing the spring (230). There will come a point where the connecting piece (210) has lowered enough that the tabs (225) of the flange piece (220) fit into the holes (215) of the connecting piece (210) and latch. The tolerances have to be adequate so that the user has to exert force to fit both pieces (210, 220), so a prestress will be achieved.
[0130]
[0131] To release the joint simply press the button (226) of the flange piece (220) and it will be released.
[0132]
[0133] Following the example of a mast (110) -fuselage (140) joint, although valid for the rest of the elements to be joined in the hydrofoil, both the mast (110) and the fuselage (140) must have the necessary holes to accommodate the mechanisms. In the case of the mast (110) the piece of union (210)) and in the case of the fuselage (140) the whole mechanism.
[0134]
[0135] The assembly is done on the side of the fuselage (140) where the closing plate (240) is. This plate (240) is attached to the fuselage (140) by four screws. The assembly and disassembly simply consists of inserting or removing the spring (230) and the flange piece (220). Once assembled, the cover (240) will be installed.
