  • Patent number: 8646794
    Abstract: A three-wheeled motorized vehicle with a reverse trike or tadpole configuration is described. The vehicle includes a rear frame coupled to a single rear wheel and a front frame that is operatively coupled to a pair of front wheels mounted on opposite sides of the front frame. The rear frame is pivotably coupled to the front frame by a first coupling located along a top portion of the front frame and a second coupling located along a bottom portion of the front frame. The first coupling is located forward of the second coupling to provide a negative rake angle. Handlebars affixed to the front frame pivot the front frame, an engine mounted therein, and the front wheels about the first and second couplings. The location of the first and second couplings also causes the rear frame to lean out of a vertical plane when the front frame is pivoted.

  • Patent number: 6527109
    Abstract: A cap for a water bottle or other liquid container. The cap has a liquid-dissolvable disk in it that dissolves in the water when the bottle is shaken. The preferred cap also has an annular cavity between inner and outer walls in the sidewall of the cap into which the liquid can flow through fluid passageways once the disk is at least partially dissolved.
