Unrolled salts supported underwater by opposite infltable sacks

Abstract

A platform structure surrounded by water is disclosed. The platform structure is put together with hollow tubes passing through recesses and internal passages of inflated sacks floating on the water surface and holding in between and underwater a series of slats to comprise a firm and flat underwater platform. The apparatus is specially designed to be disassembled and carried compactly on the trunk of an automobile, with the sacks deflated and the series of slats rolled up. The hollow tubes which join together the sacks and the slats can also be separated from one another.

I claim as my invention:  
     
         1 . An assembly comprising at least two floating inflated sacks supporting at least one underwater platform; said inflated sacks having cushioned surfaces; 
 wherein to enhance the stability on the water of the entire assembly as said underwater platform is used, and to protect as much as possible the users of said underwater platform from approaching watercrafts, said underwater platform is located at least partially in the middle of said inflated sacks with cushioned surfaces;    and wherein said cushioned surfaces of said inflated sacks allow the users of said underwater platform to relax as they stand on their feet with their upper bodies over the surface of the water, without fear of being hurt in case a sudden wave thrusts them against either one of said inflated sacks;    and wherein said inflated sacks provide underwater platform users cushioned and therefore comfortable platforms on which to crawl, sit, lie down and relax out of the water;    and wherein said underwater platform is stable enough in calm waters to enable its users to stand on their feet and walk comfortably, without supporting themselves with their hands.    
     
     
         2 . An assembly comprising at least two floating inflated sacks supporting at least one underwater platform having a series of slats aligned side by side; said inflated sacks having cushioned surfaces; 
 wherein to enhance the stability on the water of the entire assembly as said underwater platform is used, and to protect as much as possible the users of said underwater platform from approaching watercrafts, said underwater platform is located at least partially in the middle of said inflated sacks having cushioned surfaces;    and wherein said cushioned surfaces of said inflated sacks allow the users of said underwater platform to relax as they stand on their feet with their upper bodies over the surface of the water, without fear of being hurt in case a sudden wave thrusts them against either one of said inflated sacks;    and wherein said inflated sacks provide underwater platform users cushioned and therefore comfortable platforms on which to crawl, sit, lie down and relax out of the water;    and wherein said underwater platform is stable enough in calm waters to enable its users to stand on their feet and walk comfortably, without supporting themselves with their hands;    and wherein the assembly is readily compactable for convenient storage, with said sacks deflated and said slats rolled up.    
     
     
         3 . An assembly comprising at least two floating inflated sacks supporting at least one underwater platform; said inflated sacks having cushioned surfaces and inner passages through which longitudinal segments connect said underwater platform to said inflated sacks; 
 wherein to enhance the stability on the water of the entire assembly as said underwater platform is used, and to protect as much as possible the users of said underwater platform from approaching watercrafts, said underwater platform is located at least partially in the middle of said inflated sacks with cushioned surfaces;    and wherein said longitudinal segments pass through said inner passages in said inflated sacks so that said cushioned surfaces are exposed as much as possible;    and wherein said cushioned surfaces of said inflated sacks allow the users of said underwater platform to relax as they stand on their feet with their upper bodies over the surface of the water, without fear of being hurt in case a sudden wave thrusts them against either one of said inflated sacks;    and wherein said inflated sacks provide underwater platform users cushioned and therefore comfortable platforms on which to crawl, sit, lie down and relax out of the water.
