  • Patent number: 6641456
    Abstract: A toy vehicle incorporates with an independent wheel arrangement which includes a supporting leg having an upper inserting portion. The toy vehicle includes a vehicle frame having a through hole to define a top and bottom securing surfaces. The inserting portion of the supporting leg has a base portion and a shank portion to define a biasing shoulder therebetween. The inserting portion of the supporting leg is inserted into the through hole of the vehicle frame until the biasing shoulder is biased against the bottom securing shoulder of the through hole. A wheel is rotatably mounted at a bottom portion of the supporting leg. A locker member is securely attaching to the shank portion of the supporting leg with the through hole and biased against the top securing shoulder of the through hole, so as to securely mount the supporting leg to the vehicle frame.

  • Publication number: 20010040352
    Abstract: The vehicle can be used for transportation or recreation. The rider can choose to propel the vehicle by either manipulating the steering mechanism back and forth to “walk” the vehicle forward or backward across the ground or propel it with one foot upon the vehicle and one pushing off of the ground or with ski poles. The vehicle offers all of the mobility of a scooter or skateboard but with the added stability and safety of five wheels. Seated or standing riders can use the scooter. A seated rider can sit directly on the frame or on a raised seat platform. It can be adapted to employ foot manipulation to produce the back and forth “walking” propulsion. The vehicle is capable of adaptation to provide either foot or hand steering. The vehicle is capable of many incarnations including a steerable skateboard, a steerable snowboard and a steerable sidewalk ski-board.
