In a first aspect, a wearable device is provided for mounting to a foot of a user. The wearable device includes a support structure having a longitudinal axis, and having an interior. The support structure is positioned to support a foot of a user, wherein the support structure has a ground engagement surface. The wearable device further includes a first wheel shaft having a first wheel connected thereto, and a second wheel shaft having a second wheel connected thereto. The first and second wheel shafts are connected to the support structure and are movable between a stowage position in which the first and second wheel shafts hold the first and second wheels above the ground engagement surface and a rolling position in which the first and second wheel shaft hold the first and second wheels below the ground engagement surface. In both the stowage and rolling positions, the first and second wheels are laterally outside of the interior of the support structure.

Wheel Lock Device
20240173614 · 2024-05-30 · ·

A wheel lock device for roller skates is disclosed. The device comprises two loops connected by a flexural section, defining two apertures wherein the wheels of the roller skate are placed. The flexural section, made of an elastic material, allows the device to be stretched and fitted over the wheels. The device may include inner or outer chocks proximate to the loops to prevent rolling. Overhangs extending from the inner wall of the aperture prevent the device from sliding off the wheels. Inner and outer pull tabs provide improved grip for installation and removal. The device may have a closed face to protect the wheels from debris. The device is a monolithic structure made of a flexible material, allowing for adaptability to different skate configurations.
