摘要:
A boat capable of having a snowmobile securely mounted on its hull and steerable by the snowmobile's steering mechanism. The boat includes a bow, an aft, a port side, a starboard side, and a mid-ship. The hull of the boat includes a top and a bottom, wherein the bottom of the hull includes under-hull skis with tips and tails, and the bottom of the hull further includes a bow step positioned proximate to the tips of the under-hull skis. The boat also includes: a snowmobile opening including a cutaway of the hull extending into the hull from the aft and disposed halfway between the port and starboard sides; a transom disposed at the aft; and a boat steering mechanism including two boat ski attachment mechanisms on the port and starboard sides of the boat and two snowmobile ski attachment mechanisms on the port and starboard sides.

Many people enjoy outdoor sports, both in summertime and wintertime. During the summer, water sports are very popular; during the winter, snow related sports come into season. Inflatable sports devices are particularly useful, as they can readily be transported from the user's home to the place of use. Whilst for many years, inflatable water sports devices have been known in the form of dinghies and rafts, only recently have these also been used in winter sports, such as sledging. The current invention, relates to an inflatable sports device, which is further integrated with guiding ribs provided on the underside of side regions of the device. In particular, these side regions are formed such that they do not continuously contact the underlying surface of the device, and therefore provide for enhanced steering control.

An engine-driven device comprising a keel-less boat body consisting of at least two parallel, spaced, inflated tube bodies (1, 2) and comprising a substantially rigid or firm bottom (6) which is disposed between said tube bodies. A propeller propulsion (25) together with the steering means (27) and with control means (31, 32) for the propulsion are mounted on the bottom, said propeller propulsion (25) being mounted in a raised position.

A portable rescue sled includes an inflatable base covered with netting suitable to rescue victims who have fallen through the ice of a frozen pond. The base is normally coiled in a retracted deflated condition. When positioned at the edge of a lake or pond, air from a compressed air tank on the sled is used to inflate the base which uncoils toward the victim into an extended position. A portion of the netting extends beyond the base and is used by the victim to climb onto the sled which may then be pulled to safety.

A self-collapsible, inflatable device consists of a sheet made of a thermoplastic material having a memory set such that it forms into a coil when unrestrained and at least one inflatable member, semi-rigid when inflated and capable of being coiled when deflated, the inflatable member being mounted on a surface of the sheet which assumes a concave shape when the sheet is allowed to form into a coil. In one preferred embodiment the sheet includes upper and lower sheet members joined at their respective leading edges and the inflatable member is attached to the lower surface of the upper sheet and the upper surface of the lower sheet. The inflatable member and the upper and lower sheets are arranged such that the self-collapsible device coils itself when the inflatable member is deflated.
摘要:
A snow vehicle is disclosed including a single ski on which is mounted stabilizing symmetrical pontoons which are positioned, in use, to extend downward to a higher elevation than the lowest surface of the ski to preserve the ability of the vehicle to maintain directional stability, and a passenger or cargo platform mounted on the pontoons. The vehicle fitted with rearwardly extending steering and braking means is also disclosed.
摘要:
A snow coaster body for supporting one or more riders thereon and including a horizontally centrally disposed annular under portion defining a generally circular lower horizontal surface bound by an outer peripheral downwardly opening channel generally semicircular in cross section. The inner and outer peripheral extremities of the channel include generally horizontal inwardly projecting inner and outer flange portions and the lower horizontal surface is disposed at an elevation slightly below a horizontal plane containing the flanges and includes an outer peripheral upwardly and outwardly beveled portion. Also, an inflated inner tube-type member is seated in the channel and frictionally retained therein by the inner and outer peripheral flanges.

A snow raft comprises a plurality of adjustable speed control studs to control the speed of the raft wherein adjustments are made by way of threading and unthreading the studs located within threaded sockets.
摘要:
A dolly assembly including a base formed of a lightweight, at least partially flexible material, which may be inflatable or a substantially solid, one-piece construction. The base includes a plurality of pockets or apertures extending there-through and a plurality of casters each extending through a different one of the plurality of pockets. At least some of said casters include a head portion having a sufficiently large transverse dimension to restrict passage of the caster through a corresponding one of the pockets. The enlarged head of the plurality of casters are disposed in an exposed relation to an outer surface of the base in confronting relation to an object supported on the base, wherein the lightweight characteristics of the material from which the base is formed necessitate a significant and/or majority of the weight of the supported object being accommodated by the plurality of casters.
