Swimming device with retractable fins
Abstract:
The Swimming Device with Retracted Fins (SDRF) which enables swimming and walking. The SDRF employs Fins that have slanted axes of rotation which are connected to the heels of user's shoes. Fins are also tilted diagonally in opposite directions away from each other to prevent mutual Fin collisions while swimming or walking. Slanted fin shafts poses the Fins diagonally, leaning backwards while in walking position and leaning forwards while in swimming position. Backwards leaning prevents fin collisions with the calves while walking. Forwards leaning poses the fins in streamlined position with less drag during swimming. The SDRF has a positioning mechanism which enables easy changing of locked Fin positions. The SDRF is also equipped with a latching mechanism which enables detaching the Fins from the shoes simply by pulling at the latch. The latching mechanism also offers easy reattachment by pushing the Fin towards the swimming shoe.
