Cette surélévation combiné à une encavure dans le flotteur au niveau des pédales permettra de posit ionner le flotteur plus haut et aux cycliste de passer par dessus le banc facilement pour prendre place sur les pédales.A human-powered nautical vehicle characterized by a bicycle frame which is fixed by a system of quick couplings to hydrofoils. It's hydrofoils are placed in the same position as the wheels they replace so as to use the same reflexes that the cyclist knows. A light material float since very little stress gives positive buoyancy to the whole. The cyclist, if he falls into the water, climbs backwards onto a boarding bay which is fitted out. This consists of a raised addition of floating material. It may keep the cyclist in balance for boarding and disengage when leaving the water when the cyclist is on the pedals, the center of gravity having been changed position. This elevation combined with a wedge in the float at the level of the pedals will allow to position the float higher and cyclists to pass over the bench easily to take place on the pedals.

Tel qu'il est représente au dessins le système de propulsion nautique à cadre de vélo est compose d'un cadre de vélo (1) lequel inclus le pédalier la chaîne et son dérailleur le guidon la fourche et un banc Le cadre (1 ) se fixe par des ~llacl ,es rapides (2) à des hydrofoils (3) à l'avant par l'entremise d'une dérive rotative laquelle est fixée à la fourche par un tube (5 ) . La partie arrière est fixée sur une dérive creuse (6) laquelle contient une mini-chaîne (7) qui fait une torsion et fait la transmission de la rotation du pédalier à l'hélice (8) par l'elltl~l,;se de la chaîne du dérailleur et de son axe. L'arbre du d~ r étant à 90 degrés un par rapport à celui de l'hélice (9) .L'hélice est fixée l'arbre (9) qui tourne facilement sur des rou'~ "e, It~ ou paliers (9a) .Un flotteur (10) est fixé à l'ense" ,~ !e par des renforts (11 ) . Une baie d'embarquement formée de matériaux flottant (12) est b",énagée à l'arrière Les hydrofoils (3) sont fixés solide",~:nl à leur dérive ,~pet~i~/e mis à part (3A) qui est fixé sur un arbre (13) lui p~llll~ldlll de changer d'angle d'attaque. Un flotteur (15) posilionné par l'e~,l,t:n,ise d'un l"écanis"~e (14) change l'angle d'attaque de l'hydrofoils (13a) de façon à garder l'appareil à la même hauteur une foi le cycliste en action et l'appareil en vole sur l'eau. 5-Desc.i ~ tion of a read mode ~ tion of ~ .J_. ~ T; on:
As shown in the drawings, the nautical propulsion system with bicycle frame is composed of a bicycle frame (1) which includes the crankset the chain and its derailleur the handlebars the fork and a bench The frame (1) is fixed by ~ llacl, es rapids (2) to hydrofoils (3) at the front by means of a rotary fin which is fixed to the fork by a tube (5). The rear part is fixed on a fin hollow (6) which contains a mini-chain (7) which twists and transmits the rotation of the pedal to the propeller (8) by the elltl ~ l;; se of the chain of the derailleur and its axis. The tree of d ~ r being at 90 degrees one relative to that of the propeller (9). The propeller is fixed the shaft (9) which rotates easily on rou '~ "e, It ~ or bearings (9a) .A float (10) is fixed to the ens", ~! e by reinforcements (11). A bay boarding board made of floating material (12) is b ", arranged at the rear The hydrofoils (3) are fixed solid ", ~: nl drifting, ~ pet ~ i ~ / e apart (3A) which is fixed on a shaft (13) p ~ llll ~ ldlll of change the angle of attack. A float (15) positioned by e ~, l, t: n, ise of a l "echanis" ~ e (14) changes the angle of attack of the hydrofoils (13a) so as to keep the apparatus at the same height once the cyclist action and the device flies on water.
