Abstract:
A water bike has a frame supported on first and second spaced apart pontoons. Pedals are attached to cranks on a front sprocket rotatably supported on the frame. A chain or belt extends around the front sprocket and around a rear sprocket on a gearbox. An outdrive is supported on the gearbox and pivotal about a vertical axis relative to the gearbox. The combined outdrive and gearbox are pivotable about a horizontal axis relative to the frame. A propeller on the outdrive is mechanically linked to a first gear in the gearbox, with the first gear meshing with a second gear attached to the rear sprocket. A steering linkage connects a steering bar to the outdrive, for pivoting the outdrive to steer the water bike. An inflatable deck is attached to the first and second pontoons.

Claim (Index 7):
A water bike comprising:\n first and second spaced apart pontoons; front and rear cross members attached to the first and second pontoons; a frame supported on the front and rear cross beams, with the frame having a horizontal drive section supported on the front and rear cross beams, a riser joined to the drive section and a horizontal top section joined to the riser; a steering bar pivotally attached to a front end of the horizontal top section of the frame; pedals attached to a pedal shaft extending through the riser; a first sprocket attached to the pedal shaft; a gearbox at a back end of the horizontal drive section of the frame, with the gearbox including a sprocket gear, a cable gear engaged with the sprocket gear, and a second sprocket attached to the sprocket gear; a chain or belt extending around the first sprocket and the second sprocket; a steering pulley pivotally attached to the gearbox; an outdrive engaged with the steering pulley, with the outdrive including a fin-shaped outdrive housing, a tubular cable housing within the outdrive housing, a flexible propeller cable within the tubular cable housing, a propeller attached to a lower end of the propeller cable and the cable gear attached to an upper end of the propeller cable; a steering linkage connecting the steering bar to the steering pulley, for pivoting the outdrive to steer the water bike, with the fin-shaped outdrive housing acting as a rudder to assist steering of the water bike; and an inflatable deck attached to the first and second pontoons.
