Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to board sailing pool equipment intended for use in board sailing practice.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, swimming pools and surf-in pools equipped with wave-making devices have various configurations.
Although the invention has been disclosed, there is no such artificial equipment for board sailing, which has seen a rapid increase in the number of enthusiasts in recent years.

(Purpose of the Invention) The present invention forms waves of suitable wave height on the water surface of a pool in a state close to nature, and generates wind with a wind speed and volume suitable for board sailing above the water surface, so that it is possible to easily board sailing. The purpose is to provide board sailing pool equipment that allows you to enjoy sailing.

(Means for Achieving the Object) The present invention provides a plurality of cylindrical air outlets at appropriate pitches on the long side of a generally rectangular pool having an area and depth necessary for board sailing. The air ducts are installed in parallel, with the air outlet facing the pool, and the air outlet is approximately 3 to 3 feet above the water surface of the pool.
It is installed parallel to the pool side so that the blowing direction is slightly diagonally downward, and compressed air at an appropriate pressure is sent from the blower device to the above-mentioned blower duct, and the air inside the pool is heated through the air outlet. This is a pool equipment for board sailing that allows the practice of board sailing by blowing air toward the water surface to create waves on the water surface and sending an appropriate amount of wind at an appropriate speed above the water surface. The operation will be explained with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawings.

(B) Configuration According to the drawings, pool 1 of the board sailing pool equipment is approximately rectangular in shape with the area necessary for board sailing, and its depth is set so that it is easy for beginners to recover if they fall. It is defined relatively shallowly.

On one long side of the pool 1 (the front side in the figure), a pool side 2 having a gentle slope continues to the bottom surface of the pool 1 with approximately the same slope. On the pool side 3 on the opposite side facing the pool side 2, a plurality of pillars 4 (the figure shows a case of 5 pillars) for night lighting are installed at regular intervals along the pool side 3.
... are erected, and a cylindrical ventilation duct 5 is constructed by connecting the upper ends of these pillars 4, 4 .... A supply duct (not shown) that distributes and supplies air appropriately is connected.

Both ends of the air duct 5 are closed, and a plurality of cylindrical air outlets 6, 6, . . . are provided at appropriate pitches on the side surface of the duct 5 facing the pool 1. The height of 6,6... is pool 1
It is located approximately 3 to 5 meters from the surface of the water stored inside, and the blowing direction is slightly diagonally downward.

In this embodiment, a lighting device 7 is installed above the ventilation ducts 5, 5, . . . of each support 4, 4, .

A rest house 9 and other auxiliary facilities are provided on the pool side 8 on the short side of the pool 1 as necessary.

(b) Operation In the board sailing pool facility constructed as described above, the pressure air generated by the blower equipment is sent to the blower ducts 5, 5, etc. by a plurality of supply ducts, and each air outlet 6, 6. The wind is blown diagonally downward from the water surface of the pool 1 and crosses in the direction of the short side of the pool 1 in a space at a certain height from the water surface of the pool 1, creating waves at the appropriate speed and force, creating waves on the water surface, and causing waves to rise above the water surface. Let the right wind flow.

In addition, since the wind force near both ends in the longitudinal direction of the pool 1 tends to weaken, the supply duct to the blower duct 5 is designed with this in mind, so that stronger wind is blown out from the air outlets 6 near both ends. There is.

In addition, fans 6a, 6a... are installed inside the air outlet ports 6, 6... which can be swung, and air blowing devices 6b, 6b are installed.
It is also possible to blow air to each.

Board surfing takes advantage of these waves and wind and allows you to enjoy sailing freely as shown in the diagram, and even if you fall into the water during practice, the depth of pool 1 is set at a moderately shallow depth, so you can easily stand up. is also easy,
Additionally, the installation of lighting equipment allows for use at night, allowing for efficient practice.

In the above embodiment, the ventilation duct 5 and the air outlets 6, 6... were provided only on one side of the pool side 3 of the pool 1. Alternatively, the blowing direction of the air blowing ports 6, 6, . . . may be adjusted to further improve the efficiency.

(Effects) As explained above, the board sailing pool equipment of the present invention sends wind across the pool water surface from the pool side, creating waves on the water surface, and blowing the wind necessary for sailing above the water surface. This equipment can be easily used to enjoy board sailing, and by installing this equipment at a nearby pool, it has an excellent practical effect in that it is possible to enjoy board sailing under conditions close to nature. .

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. A ventilation duct with a plurality of cylindrical air outlets arranged in parallel at appropriate pitches is installed on the long side of a generally rectangular pool with the area and depth necessary for board sailing. with the air outlet facing the pool side, the air outlet is approximately 3 to 5 meters above the water surface of the pool, and the air outlet is installed parallel to the pool side so that the air outlet direction is slightly diagonally downward. It is characterized by blowing compressed air and ejecting it from the air outlet toward the water surface in the pool, creating waves on the water surface, and sending an appropriate amount of wind at the appropriate pressure above the water surface to enable board sailing. Pool equipment for board sailing.
