Foil strongbox
10773775 · 2020-09-15 ·

The present invention is a dual-purpose mounting system for attaching removable hydrofoils along a rideable board. The dual-purpose mounting system reduces repetitive stress exerted on the hull of the rideable board by foil bending and torsion, therefore prolonging the hull life of the rideable board. The dual-purpose mounting system is a solid one-piece constructed foil strongbox having a mounting body that is installed into a surfboard hull. A mounting receptacle is positioned within the mounting body to receive a tuttle style hydrofoil mount through a first hydrofoil aperture at a mounting surface of the mounting body. A pair of second hydrofoil apertures traverses into the mounting surface to further facilitate attachment of a plate style hydrofoil. A plurality of fastener sleeves traverses into the mounting body opposite the mounting receptacle enable attachment of the mounting body to the surfboard hull.

Advanced Hydrofoil Apparatus
20200277024 · 2020-09-03 ·

Hydrofoils are a device that is used to decrease the resistance of a water traveling apparatus. It does this by creating lift on its wings which pushes the apparatus off the surface of the water, to reduce friction. My patent pertains to hydrofoils that are attached onto boards for various water sports. These board sports include, but aren't limited to, surfing, stand up paddling, kitesurfing, kiteboarding, wakeboarding, wake surfing, and windsurfing.

Hydrofoil-based apparatus

A device is proposed, increasing stability of a surfer on a surfboard. It includes an anchoring means connected to the surfboard, in turn, including a negative pressure chamber, a receiving chamber, its nozzle, and an outlet pipe. At least one surfer's foot is anchored by the anchoring means to the surfboard, when it's in motion, by a suction flow formed in water by the negative pressure chamber. The suction flow is conveyed via the pipe to the point where the foot contacts with the surfboard, so that the foot is adhered thereto by negative pressure. The device's first embodiment further includes a fin disposed on the underside rear part of the surfboard, while the anchoring means is disposed inside or on the fin. A second embodiment envisages the anchoring means disposed in a depression made in the underside. The depression is open at the surfboard's bottom, forming a channel.
