  • Individual underwater propulsion device
    Patent number: 5469803
    Abstract: An underwater device using a reaction propulsion system. The initial flow entering by a front end turbine (1) is divided into two laminar, partially divergent flows (2) enabling the diver to place himself in the wake of the device. The power supply (3) is built into the device or is externally attached to the diving material, and an electrical cable (4) provides the electric power supply. The novel shape of the propulsion system makes it a handy and efficient device, especially suitable for underwater diving.
