  • Hand powered toy vehicle
    Patent number: 4848736
    Abstract: The present invention is a toy vehicle upon which a child may ride and propel the vehicle forwardly by merely oscillating a swingable lever. The toy vehicle incorporates a drive operated by oscillating a swingable lever, and wherein forward propulsion is applied to the drive wheel by swinging the lever in both directions as the lever is being oscillated. The swingable oscillatable lever rotatably oscillates a drive pulley connected to an endless belt. When turned in one direction, the pulley tightens and drives the somewhat slack belt and propels the drive wheel forwardly. When the pulley is turned in the other direction, the pulley again tightens the belt and again propels the drive wheel forwardly.
