Patent

CA 2190641

The present invention relates to a hydrocopter. A hydrocopter is a vehicle by which it is possible to move over water, particularly in an archipelago, under difficult conditions, e.g. during the thaw. The waterproof hull of the hydrocopter bears against the underlying surface, such as snow, ice, slush or water, and is driven forward by a propeller mounted on top of the hull. The problem with the current hydrocopters is that they are very difficult to steer and uncomfortable to ride in. Division of the hydrocopter hull into two portions (1, 2) connected to each other by a hinge joint (3), in accordance with the invention, makes it possible to use frame steering. This new structure makes the hydrocopter easier to handle. The invention provides a vehicle which has a small turning radius and which is steerable even at very slow speeds.

Un hydrocoptère est un véhicule capable de se déplacer sur l'eau, notamment dans un archipel, dans des conditions difficiles, par exemple pendant le dégel. La coque étanche à l'eau de l'hydrocoptère repose sur la surface sous-jacente constituée de neige, de glace, de boue ou d'eau, et est propulsée en avant par une hélice montée en haut de la coque. Le problème rencontré dans les hydrocoptères actuels est qu'ils sont très difficiles à diriger et inconfortables. En divisant la coque de l'hydrocoptère en deux parties (1, 2) interconnectées par un joint à charnière (3), on peut diriger le châssis. Cette nouvelle structure permet de manier plus aisément l'hydrocoptère. L'invention permet d'obtenir un véhicule avec un court rayon de révolution et qui peut être dirigé même à des vitesses très basses.
