Training Wheel for Skateboarding
20230001285 · 2023-01-05 ·

The present disclosure provides a detachable training wheel apparatus for mounting to the underside of a skateboard tail or nose to assist with balancing a user during manoeuvres which require tipping of the skateboard onto two wheels, while allowing the board to continue rolling along the ground with minimal friction. The apparatus comprises a single wheel mounted to a mounting board by a pair of supports and a central bushing, with the opposing side of the mounting board having a flat surface provided with attachment means for detachably coupling to the skateboard underside, such as a hook and loop surface.

SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE FOR REPLICATING THE MOTIONS OF SNOW SKIING IN DRY CONDITIONS
20220387877 · 2022-12-08 ·

A system, method, and apparatus for replicating the experience of snow skiing on dry land using a roller land ski with an ability to move and stop consistent with mechanics of an actual snow ski. Each land ski includes a rigid platform with a binding for engagement with a specialized boot, a pair of biased omnidirectional casters supporting said rigid platform, but mounted to a top surface of said platform, and a pair of trucks with a plurality of wheels along its curved axles. A pair of specialized boots constructed out of flexible lightweight material with a stiff support structure to fortify a user's foot and ankle from the forces created by the land ski are included in this system. The method includes calibration and selection of materials for both the board and boot in order to achieve the desired experience.

A Frame and Wheel Assembly for an Inline Skate, Inline Skate, Retrofitting Method and Replacement Mount
20220226717 · 2022-07-21 ·

This invention relates to an improved wheel arrangement of an inline skate for improving turning capability. In this wheel arrangement, the front wheel and rear wheel and any middle wheels are disposed along a straight line that makes an acute angle with the rolling direction and with the wheels being arranged such that they are part of a substantially inverted V-shape seen in front or rear plan view. Subject of the invention are a frame, a wheel assembly, combinations of left and right frames and wheel assemblies, inline skates, a method for retrofitting a prior art frame and a replacement mount for use in such a method.

Disclosed is a folding car for children. The folding car comprises a rear frame, rear frame is connected with a seat; a front frame connected to the rear frame in a back-and-forth movable manner; a front lateral rod, a front portion of which is rotatably connected with the front frame; a rear lateral rod rotatably connected to the front lateral rod and the rear frame; a pedal rod rotatably connected to the front frame; and a connecting rod connected with the rear frame in a back-and-forth movable manner, and a front portion of the connecting rod being connected with the pedal rods in a slidable and rotatable manner. The folding car for children realizes the folding of a seat-type scooter for children, has a simple and new overall structure, is convenient to fold and has a small volume after being folded.

Roller skates

The present invention relates to sports equipment, namely, to roller skates design enabling an athlete to achieve high speed of movement with better comfort and improved motion control, in particular, in case of movement on a lower quality road surfaces. Roller skates consist of two skates—right and left ones, each comprising a spatial rectangular frame with its upper surface adapted to be attached to a frame of the corresponding shoe, either left or right one, and its lower side having two pairs of rollers pivotally attached thereto such that the rollers may rotate being in contact with the roadway and the rollers' axes are parallel to the frame plane, and according to the invention each pair of front and rear rollers of each skate is pivotally attached to the corresponding Z-shaped wheel arm, either front or rear one, which has its central section pivotally attached to the corresponding smaller side of the spatial rectangular frame, and the distance between the axes of the inner rollers of a skate is greater than the distance between the axes of the external rollers. The present invention is aimed to provide such roller skates, which would be more reliable and safe due to increased stability of the skates during movement, also in case of lower quality road surface and during cornering. This objective is achieved by way of creating conditions for uniform distribution of the load arising from the weight of the athlete during movement among all four rollers of each skate, even when moving on a lower quality road surface.

Wide Wheel Inline Roller Skate
20210275898 · 2021-09-09 ·

A wide wheel inline roller skate has a boot, a chassis, and a plurality of wheels. The boot is removably attached atop the chassis, and the plurality of wheels is rotatably connected to the chassis opposite the boot. Each of the plurality of wheels is bi-directionally tapered from a medial diameter outward to a lateral diameter, wherein the medial diameter is larger than the lateral diameter. Thus, the wide wheel inline roller skate affords greatly increased surface area contact between a supporting ground surface and any given wheel, thereby increasing stability and safety, compared to conventional in-line roller skates, particularly while turning.
