The present invention relates to a recumbent vehicle (10), more particularly, it relates to a recreational electrically (38, 40, 42) and/or pedal-powered recumbent vehicle (10), specifically suited for use as a golf cart (100). The recumbent vehicle (10) includes a chassis (12), two front wheels (14A, 14B), a rear wheel (16), a reclined seat (18), a footrest (20) located forwardly of the rotary axis of the front wheel and an unobstructed load bay (22) between the chassis (12), the rear wheel (16) and a backrest of the reclined seat (18).

The present invention relates to a personal transporter. The transporter includes a support for supporting a driver. Three or more ground engaging devices are provided for engaging the ground during transport. An electric drive is provided for driving at least one of the ground engaging devices to propel the transporter. A handle bar is provided for enabling the driver to control at least one of the ground engaging devices to steer the transporter. Advantageously, three or more ground engaging devices provide improved stability and may carry greater loads when compared with the two wheels of a Segway.

A motorized scooter that may be reversibly converted into a push-cart, which may be powered or non-powered. Converting to a push-cart may include shortening a wheel base and/or tilting a steering column backward and/or extending a steering handle backward.

A golf-bag carrying vehicle is an apparatus that assists a user in transporting their golf bag by either manually push-kicking the apparatus or motorizing the apparatus. The apparatus includes a pair of idle wheels, a stabilizing wheel, a frame, a steering mechanism, a handlebar, and a footboard. The pair of idle wheel arranged at the front end of the frame and the stabilizing wheel arranged at the rear end of the frame are configured into a tricycle configuration, which creates ample space in the center of the apparatus for a rider and/or a payload. The steering mechanism and the handlebar allows a user to steer the apparatus in a desired direction. The footboard allows the user to selectively ride on the apparatus or to manually assist the movement of the apparatus by push-kicking.

Disclosed is a tricycle for playing golf. The tricycle includes a foldable front half comprising a pair of steerable front wheels, a front frame supported between the pair of steerable front wheels, a pair of handlebar posts coupled to a pair of handlebar post tubes of the front frame, and a golf bag support assembly arranged on the front frame. The tricycle also includes a foldable rear half releasably coupled to the foldable front half. The foldable rear half includes a drivable rear wheel, a rear frame releasably coupled to the front frame, a chainwheel drive arranged on a down tube of the rear frame and operatively coupled to the drivable rear wheel, and a seat assembly arranged on a rear tube of the rear frame.

A golf trike that has a slot between two storage compartments between its rear wheels. The slot fits and holds the front tire of a towed golf trike. A bag rack on the front golf trike articulates forward out of the way of the slot on the front trike to allow the front tire of the rear trike to fit into the slot. When the golf trike is not towing another trike the bag rack articulates rearward to hold a golf bag for routine play.

The invention relates to a vehicle having a deck, a plurality of wheels mounted to the deck, a drive system mounted underneath the deck, an energy storage system that provides power to the drive system, and a frame configured to secure a load mounted to the deck. Particularly, the vehicle is an electric vehicle in the form of an electric skateboard for us in golf environments. The frame of the vehicle is adapted to secure and carry a golf bag, as well as various accessories, and enables an operator to traverse a golf course together with their golfing equipment on the vehicle.

A standing riding golf bag cart (10) is provided for transporting a passenger and a golf bag (13) around a golf course. The cart (10) is adapted to covert between an expanded mode (12) for usage and a compact mode (14), for storage. The cart includes a base tube (22), a front carriage subassembly (24), a steering subassembly (26); a bag support subassembly (28); a central support subassembly (30), and a rear drive subassembly (32). The central support subassembly (30) is provided with running boards (80) upon which the passenger stands. The cart (10) is propelled by a pair of rear drive wheels (86) each having an associated electric motor (88) controlled by the passenger using a throttle control (94).

Golf carts are typically large and relatively heavy vehicles that either needs to be stored at the golf course, or to be transported home or to another golf course on a trailer. This adds cost and complexity to the use of a golf cart. And since golf carts are often used by people with limited physical strength, the handling problems become more significant. The disclosed vehicle minimizes these problems by providing a relatively simple and light weight vehicle that can be operated on golf courses, and which can be disassembled to fit into the back of a car, or can be mounted on a tow bar. The vehicle is lightweight, stable on golfing fairways and is simple to steer, due to an innovative lean steering system, in which the body of the vehicle is able to pivot in a controlled manner relative to both a front and a rear axle.
