  • Patent number: 9931254
    Abstract: A powered wheelchair 100 with a tilt mechanism having multiple pivots that allows the wheelchair 100 to be driven and steered with or without the use of hands. The wheelchair 100 has two spaced apart drive wheels 101, each mounted to a separate shaft 104 that is independent of the other drive wheel. A drive controller drivingly coupled to the shafts 104 and the drive controller is housed within a base 102 that is pivotally situated on the shafts 104. A seat 103 mounted on a tilt mechanism enables the seat to tilt in a forward, backward, left and right direction as a result of the user displacing their body weight in either of those directions. The tilt mechanism includes three pivots, a primary pivot P1, secondary pivot P2 and tertiary pivot P3. The primary pivot P1 pivotally connects the base 102 to the shafts 104. The secondary pivot P2 is situated above and adjacent the base 102 so that the respective ends of the rod 105 are pivotally connected to the base 102.

  • Patent number: 9585801
    Abstract: A mobility device includes at least two drive wheels mounted on a shaft; a drive controller drivingly coupled to the shaft; a seat mounted to a tilt mechanism such that the seat is able to tilt in a forward, backward, left and right directions as a result of the user shifting their body weight in either of those directions; a weight displacement sensor connectable to the tilt mechanism and the drive controller such that upon sensing a weight displacement of a user in a particular direction the weight displacement sensor causes the drive controller to impart drive to the drive wheels to move the mobility device in the direction of the sensed displaced weight of the user so that the mobility device is able to be driven in a forward and backward direction and steered in a left or right direction.

  • Patent number: 6293220
    Abstract: A vehicle trailer assembly including a flat deck wheeled chassis or sub-assembly detachably mounting an integrally molded plastics main body having a floor part with upstanding opposite side walls and conjoining rounded and forwardly tapering front end part, a plastics transverse tail gate for closing the main body at or between the rear ends of the opposite side walls and hingeably mounted either to a rear end portion of the floor part or to a transverse rear end part of the wheeled chassis or sub-assembly. An integrally molded plastics cover component of inverted dinghy boat or dished form having inclined opposite side walls and a tapering forward end being detachably or hingeably mounted on the main body for closing up of the assembly and providing the trailer body assembly with a streamlined substantially bullet shape.
