Abstract: A multi-function mobility device may comprise a lower chassis shell and an upper occupant shell connected by a quick release pivot joint that provides occupant accommodation that is secure and comfortable. In addition, the structural architecture is designed to allow safe adaptations to the axle configuration. Through flexible suspension arm mounting the suspension-hub-wheel/tire assembly can be quickly assembled/disassembled to provide alternative usage axle layouts. An ergonomic handle assembly may be coupled with the structure for pushing, pulling, towing, carrying, etc. When disassembled, the multi-function stroller can be folded into a compact storage mode. Thus, non-compromised performance, versatility, and usage functionality can be readily achieved and accomplished in a safe manner.

Abstract: A modular transporter comprises a universal chassis that can be linked with a variety of user modules. The universal chassis comprises a base that includes a quick connector and complex geometric surfaces on its sidewalls that function to secure a user module thereto. The quick connector allows for quick assembly/disassembly of a user module to and from the base of universal chassis. A plurality of suspension arms may be removeably connectable to the base such that modular transporter may be configured in a number of transport configurations. An ergonomic handle assembly may be coupled with the base for pushing, pulling, towing, etc. When disassembled, the modular transporter can be folded into a storage and/or quick fold mode and stored in a modular storage system. The modular storage system can be mounted to a trailer hitch by a linking mechanism for further transport.

Abstract: The subject invention provides an independent wheel suspension system (20) for a vehicle. The suspension system (20) includes an lateral support (26) and a pair of lower lateral links (30, 32) spaced from the lateral support (26). A tall knuckle (36) extends between the lateral support (26) and the pair of lower lateral links (30, 32). The lateral support (26) and the pair of lateral links (30, 32) are pivotably connected to the knuckle (36). A rod (64) is pivotably connected to the knuckle (36) adjacent the pivotal connection between the lateral support (26) and the knuckle (36) and extends inward and downward toward the vehicle to a second end (68). A crank (70) is pivotable connected to the vehicle for rotation by the rod (64) in response to vertical movement of the knuckle (36) relative to the vehicle. The second end (68) of the rod (64) is connected the crank (70). A dampening device (72) is attached to the vehicle and the crank (70) for controlling movement of the crank (70).
