Definitions

  • a contrasting desire is that the volume and/or weight of the cycle is minimised, in particular when no cargo is transported and/or when stationing the cycle.
  • the cycle may be a bicycle, facilitating a relatively narrow shape or be provided with more than two wheels, e.g. three or four wheels of which one or more than one may be steerable as indicated above.
  • the steerable wheel may be a front wheel
  • the steering handle may be a handlebar or a steering wheel, one or more stick grips or any other suitable steering handle .
  • a wheel steering axis of rotation may extend substantially vertical and/or perpendicular to the axis of rotation for rolling of the wheel, possibly generally parallel to the steering axle connected to a steering handle.
  • a cycle in particular a cargo cycle, comprising a first cycle portion and a second cycle portion.
  • the cycle comprises a steering assembly, comprising a steering handle in the first cycle portion and a steerable wheel in the second cycle portion operably connected together for steering the cycle in a riding direction.
  • the first and second cycle portions are adjustably coupled for reversibly transforming the cycle from a first, relatively long, configuration to a second, relatively short,
  • the tether can pull the traveller along a track and tethers to opposite directions can accurately position the traveller on the track, e.g. as in a crane trolley. Chains and /or wires may serve as tether.
  • the cargo hold may be reversibly deformable by at least part of the cargo hold being
  • At least part of the cargo hold may provide structural strength to the cycle.
  • a cargo hold comprising upstanding walls defining a cavity facilitates storing cargo without it falling off and/or out of the cargo hold.
  • Such cargo hold may also increase safety of any (child) passengers in the cargo hold. Passenger seats in or on the cargo hold may improve (child) passenger comfort .
  • the beams 55-65 are rotary mounted through bearings 77, 79, 81 83, 85 in (tubular sections 15A, 15B of) the frame 3.
  • couplings 69 and 75 are pinion couplings and couplings 67, 73 are universal joints of the cardan type.
  • each beam 55-65 is rotary about its own direction of extension; e.g. steering beam 55 is rotary with respect to the frame 3 about a steering axis S and the
  • beams 59, 61 or other parts of the first and second steering portions 53A, 53B may be mounted adjacent each other rotary about different axes of rotation, and be drivably connected for operably
  • the top portion the cargo hold 113 is provided with supports 133 are be connected to first and second frame members 115A, 115 of the frame 3 and provide structural robustness to the cycle 1 as a whole.
  • the supports 133 are be connected to first and second frame members 115A, 115 of the frame 3 and provide structural robustness to the cycle 1 as a whole.
  • the cargo hold 113 is provided with optional storage compartments having an optional lid 191, 192 e.g. for lights, locks, rain gear etc.
  • the backrest 193 may be deformable, e.g. foldable, associated with a deformation of the cargo hold 113 between different configurations of the cycle 101.
  • the housing 114 is provided with optional hatches 195 for inspection and maintenance.
  • Figs. 9-11 and 12-14 From a comparison of Figs. 9-11 and 12-14 may be seen that the beams 159, 161 are slidably connected in a telescopic relationship with each other, and that the coupling 169 of the beams 157 and 159 surrounds and accommodates the inner 161 in the short configuration (Figs. 11-14; compare with Figs. 5-6) .

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un cycle (1) comprenant une première partie de cycle (17) et une seconde partie de cycle (19) et un ensemble de direction (35), comprenant une poignée de direction (11) dans la première partie de cycle (17) et une roue orientable (5) dans la seconde partie de cycle (19) fonctionnellement reliées ensemble pour diriger le cycle (1). Les première et seconde parties de cycle (17, 19) sont couplées de manière ajustable pour transformer de manière réversible le cycle (1) d'une première configuration relativement longue à une seconde configuration relativement courte par rapport à une direction de longueur (L). La première partie de cycle (17) comprend une première partie de direction de l'ensemble de direction et la seconde partie de cycle (19) comprend une seconde partie de direction de l'ensemble de direction.
