A non-motorized transport device including first and second skis; first front and rear fastening feet fastened on the first ski and second front and rear fastening feet fastened on the second ski; a longitudinal beam; an edging handle fastened to the longitudinal beam; and a connecting system connecting the longitudinal beam to the first and second front and rear fastening feet, the connecting system including first and second front connecting rods each including a middle portion pivotally mounted on the longitudinal beam about a respective front articulation axis and first and second end portions which are respectively connected to the first and second front fastening feet by respective front ball joint connections, and a rear connecting rod including a middle portion pivotally mounted on the longitudinal beam about a rear articulation axis and first and second end portions respectively connected to the first and second rear fastening feet by respective rear ball joint connections.

A conversion kit for a snow vehicle has a front assembly component, the front assembly component has a front ski, a bracket that is attached to the front ski, two extension arms that are pivotally attached to the bracket extending upwardly from the front ski, and a rear assembly component having a two or more adjacent members, a mount attached to the pivot unit, comprising a clamping attachment on one end configured to retain a section of the frame on another end, a ski attachment terminating each adjacent member, a pivot unit, comprising at two horizontal pivot bars pivotally connecting the adjacent members at its ends, and pivotally connected to the mount at a midpoint, wherein the one or more horizontal pivot bars move the adjacent members interdependently, and wherein each member extends from a common pivot unit and terminates at a ski attachment.

Steering control system for snow vehicles, suitable for equipping vehicles like snowmobile type or more specifically of the standing snowmobile style (1), with a basic configuration of, at least, two front skis (4a, 4b) and one drive track (3). The system acts on one or the other ski independently, and depending of the chosen path left or right, the rider can activate the left ski system or the right ski system using a mechanism that can be manual or assisted. This swing arms system (5a, 5b) and rotating ski spindle (6a, 6b) allow an easy and stable lateral tilt of the snowmobile, and besides generate a multiple and simultaneous orientation on the ski (4a) or (4b). All these factors gives the snowmobile high maneuverability and efficient control of the trajectory.

There is provided a snowmobile steering assembly according to one aspect. The snowmobile steering assembly includes at least one ski having a pair of side edge portions which are outwardly concave. The snowmobile steering assembly includes a mount which pivotally couples to the ski and rotates the ski about an axis generally parallel to or slightly angled relative to a forward portion of the ski.

There is also provided a snowmobile steering assembly according to another aspect. The snowmobile steering assembly includes a steering mechanism. The steering mechanism is configured to primarily turn the snowmobile by angling the top of the ski at least in part towards the direction of the turn. The steering mechanism is configured to secondarily turn the snowmobile by rotating a forward portion of ski in the direction of the turn.
