    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments of a tilting frame for a three-wheeled vehicle with a steerable load-carrying front end. When the vehicle is rolling forward and steered, the wheels and portions of the frame can tilt sideward in a controlled manner to provide turning stability. Further, the frame keeps the load in a substantially-level and fully supported while also causing the vehicle and load center of gravity to shift laterally to enhance vehicle stability. An embodiment of the invention relates to human pedaled and electric-assisted vehicles including cargo bikes and trishaws for carrying passengers.

    Abstract: The invention is an improvement on a tricycle of the type having a rear drive wheel and a pair of forward steering or guide wheels. The improved tricycle has a rigid frame extending along a central axis. Lateral supports extend from either side of the frame, each such support having a guide wheel mounted on the outer portion. A kingpin arrangement at each outer portion is for steering the front wheels. A linkage extends between the kingpins for maintaining the guide wheels parallel irrespective of steering angle. The lateral supports are retractable with respect to the frame so that the tricycle is collapsible. Such tricycle also includes an adjustable, detachable seat mounted relatively high above the ground so the rider's visibility is improved. Such seat is elevated with respect to the pedal sprocket so that while pedaling, the rider's knees do not interfere with vision.

    Abstract: Apparatus having particular but not limited use for exercise purposes by persons handicapped as to use of their lower limbs or having cardio-pulmonary or ancillary physical problems comprises a body support adapted to maintain the trunk of the body supported thereby in a substantially dynamic balance leaving the lower limbs or limb of the body to depend free of load from the trunk of the body, the support being limited to maintaining the trunk of the body in an attitude which is other than vertical. In a preferred mobile embodiment the body support has a wheel base and provides a cycle structure. An improved braking system used with the cycle structure is simply controlled through grips illustrated in connection with a handlebar, a slight forward rotation of which achieves a safe braking action with great ease and little exertion or coordination being required. Another invention embodiment is a hand operated propulsion system ideal for those severely handicapped, including paraplegics, hand grips rotating on a steering bar of a cycle structure being linked to a drive wheel and simple limited back and forth motion of the hands and arms bending sufficient to achieve a highly effective propulsive effect.

    Abstract: An adjustable coupling device for use with a conventional wheelchair and a conventional vehicle. The wheelchair has a transverse foot support with a length. The vehicle has a support deck with a width. The coupling device is removably secured to the support deck. The coupling device is formed with a rectangular base plate. Upstanding components extending upwardly from the base plate are configured to receive and retain the transverse foot support. The width of the base plate is less than the length of the transverse foot support. The base plate has two spaced holes laterally spaced by a distance greater than the width of the support deck. A mechanism has a central section beneath the support deck and has upstanding ends extendable upwardly through the holes in the base plate. The mechanism is adapted to hold the base plate to the support deck.

    Abstract: An active vehicle with variable inclination mechanism is provided. The active vehicle with variable inclination mechanism comprises a linear slide mechanism, two sets of longitudinal interlocking mechanism, a steering control mechanism, and a control unit. The linear slide mechanism comprises a reciprocating action member. A lateral displacement of the reciprocating action member drives the longitudinal interlocking mechanism to produce a displacement along a longitudinal direction while a torque is applied at the steering control mechanism. The wheels are driven to move along an opposite longitudinal direction and to form an inclination. Using the active vehicle with variable inclination mechanism can provide a real-time inclination force while rounding a corner as well as increase the safety. Besides, the driver can easily get on/off the vehicle when the vehicle is stationary and the reciprocating action member is locked at the stationary position of the vehicle.
