CLAMP FOR ATTACHING ACCESSORIES TO A SKATEBOARD OR LONGBOARD
20190091555 · 2019-03-28 ·

A clamp used to attach an accessory to a skateboard or longboard. The clamp, in its preferred embodiment, consists of a mounting plate, a clamp bottom, and a clamp top. The mounting plate is used to attach to the top deck of the skateboard or longboard using the existing truck hole mounting pattern. The clamp bottom will attach to the mounting plate and the clamp top will attach to the clamp bottom with an accessory secured between the clamp bottom and top. It is understood that the pieces of the clamp can be attached using various methods and construction methods can vary. The purpose of this clamp is to allow the rider of a skateboard or longboard ability to attach accessories to a board. With the attachment of an accessory, a rider has the flexibility to customize their board to meet their needs and create a hybrid modular board.

Roller board with one or more user-maneuverable trucks and north-seeking return mechanism

A roller board device like a skateboard or scooter operated by a user with one or more user-maneuverable wheel assemblies that are automatically returned to their true north position is provided according to the invention. The roller board device comprises an elongated deck, at least one wheel assembly, a rotation assembly operatively engaging and extending through the opening in the deck, one end of the rotation assembly being connected to the wheel assembly positioned below the deck, the other end of the rotation assembly being connected to a user interface member extending upward beyond the top surface of the deck, and a north-seeking return mechanism secured to the deck containing an engagement member movable along a linear axis within a housing and engaging a spring disposed between the engagement member and an interior wall of the housing, the rotation assembly operatively connected to the engagement member to convert rotational movement of the rotation member into linear movement of the engagement member. When the user applies rotational force to the user engagement member to turn it to the left or right, the rotation assembly and wheel assembly are rotated in the same direction and degree to allow the roller board device to be turned, the rotated rotation assembly interacting with the engagement member of the north-seeking return mechanism to move the engagement member along its linear axis to a retracted position to compress the spring. But, when the user releases the rotational force upon the user interface member, the spring extends from its compressed state to its elongated state to move the engagement member of the north-seeking return mechanism back along the linear axis from its retracted position to its standby position, counter interacting with the rotation assembly to return the wheel assembly of the roller board device to its true north position.
