Electrically driven outboard motor with a substantially vertical, outboard to the hull of the boat mechanically fixed height adjustment mechanism and a steering or turning / swiveling device for the lower propulsion unit integrated in the outboard motor and independent of the drive / motor position.

摘要

The invention relates to an electrically driven outboard motor, especially for smaller sport and leisure boats, with a substantially vertical height adjustment mechanism that is mechanically connected to the hull outboard and a steering or swiveling device for the lower propulsion unit that is integrated in the outboard motor and independent of the drive / motor position The better maneuverability is ensured by an underwater propulsion unit that can be rotated up to 360 ° around the vertically arranged motor shaft and an additional casing / protective tube surrounding the propeller with laterally arranged flow plates. The maximum desired steering angle is achieved by a steering wheel installed on the outboard motor and the length of the tiller arm determined variably. The articulation can still take place via Bowden cable / Teleflex steering systems permanently installed in the boat. According to the invention, this outboard drive represents a synthesis between the outboard and the POD drive, because the lower rotatable part of the propulsion unit (angular gear and propeller) has an azimuth The additional jacket tube (16) offers, on the one hand, aerodynamic advantages comparable to those of a jet drive and, on the other hand, protection against injuries for swimmers and divers. In addition, the jacket pipe protects the propeller from damage such. The flow sheets (17) optionally attached to the side of the protective tube also increase the steering effect and the straight-line stability of the boat. The exact assembly of the outboard drive is explained in FIG
